Story
Friday ended up on our doorstep. It was on a Friday so thats what we called him. He was a stray. I could not find his owners. I do believe someone abandoned him . He was very skinny and had several ticks on him. I did not have the heart to NOT take him in and find his owners, but it didn't work out that way. We think he is between 2-3 years old. He is a very sweet dog. He loves to play fetch and he is very active. Not sure of his breed. We did take him to the vet and they believe he might be a mix between a Rottweiler and Lab. shots are up to date We just want to find him a good home.

Story
Peggy Sue is such a darling little girl. She is super sweet, very affectionate, and just a tiny thing at 8.8 lbs. Peggy Sue was the runt of the litter and very weak. She was bottled fed and its just a miracle that she has thrived. She has a very odd issue with her eyes, she does not blink like a normal dog but she uses her inner eyelids to blink. We can chat more about that if you are interested in her. This does not affect her in any way healthwise, she is just different. The only reason she is listed as special needs is due to this. She is otherwise a very happy, energetic, and sweet little girl. She is now 17 weeks and is ready for her new home. Peggy Sue is spayed, UTD on all shots, microchipped, and on preventatives.

Story
Maya is 4 1/2 years old and needs a new forever home due to no fault of her own. Current owner is older and has medical conditions that is making caring for Maya difficult. Maya was professionally trained by Sit Means Sit and has a collar to continue training. It just needs a new charger. Maya is great with people, loves to snuggle, and wants to be outside when the weather is nice. Her only con is that she does like to counter surf so you will need to be diligent in watching her and training her using the correction collar. Birthday is 11/2.

Story
Ringo was a shelter pull. As a puppy, she was loaded with Ringworm and was set to be euthanized. We took her in, put her in quarantine for a month while she was being treated, and she is now perfectly healthy. We are not totally sure of Ringo's breeding, so we have recently sent out a DNA test and I will post those as soon as they come back next week. Ringo is a small girl packed with energy. She should mature around 30 lbs. She would do best with an active family. She can be initially shy when meeting new folks, might even bark at them, but she bonds quickly and when she does, its solid. Ringo loves to run, zoomies are a part of her everyday life. She is very smart and picks up things very quickly. She is housebroke, leash trained, and crate trained. She is spayed, UTD on all shots, is microchipped, and on preventatives. She loves to chase squirrels and she will dig for moles/gophers if she smells/sees them. She is a low shedder, good eater, and a nap on the couch with her foster mom after a playful day is ideal. Her first foster was with many dogs, large and small. She is now being fostered as an only dog. While she does fine in both environments, we think Ringo would be happiest with at least one other dog in her family. She has not been around cats, but as she chases small critters she might not do well with them. Cats is an unknown.
