Story

Petunia is a sweet cuddly pitty I've had for 10.5 years. Only reason I have her up for re-homing, is because I have a disabled family member moving in with me and a dog is unfortunately a fall hazard. As much as I want to keep her this is the tough decision I have to make. However I hope to find her a great new home!

Story

Hello, unfortunately and with a heavy heart I need to find a new home for Cammie. I just received a new job which I will have to travel almost continuously. The cost of boarding her is just not feasible and not fair to her. Cammie is a very sweet and friendly dog with a lot of love to give. She still has a lot of energy and loves to run and play with other dogs. She is excellent around other animals and people. Almost never barks and jumps up and down when she gets excited. She loves long walks on the leash but has to lead the way. She's about 3 1/2 now and I have had her almost two years. In which time she has been a very good dog and has never shown any aggression towards other animals or people. Never has growled in anger or even can close to biting someone. Cammie has lived with me and my cat Charlie in a apartment which I was rarely home. My hope is that someone can give her a home with a yard and other dogs to play with or have the time to take her to the park or the beach.Thanks

Vincent

Golden Retriever

Charleston, SC

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Vincent is a five year old full bred golden retriever! My husband has had him since he was a puppy, because of a change in life circumstances we are looking to re-home him to a couple or family that can give him the time and attention he deserves. Vincent is good with cats and older kids. He is good with other dogs as well but because of jealousy he may do better in a one dog household lol. He's high energy and loves going on walks, throwing the ball, and being around people. He's very food motivated and loves his treats. Vincent is a Velcro dog, he loves being around people constantly. We think he would do well with someone who spends a lot of time at home!
