Story
Meet Maverick! This sweet and playful 3-year-old pup is looking for a new forever home. We adopted him from the Rapid City Humane Society a year ago, and he’s been a loving part of our lives ever since. Maverick is house-trained, knows how to use a dog door, and currently enjoys free access between his cozy dog house and the main house. He loves to play fetch, go for runs, play chase in the backyard, chew on bones, tug-of-war, and cuddle with his favorite stuffed ducks. Maverick is full of energy and affection and would thrive in a home where he can get plenty of attention and playtime, ideally with someone who enjoys an active lifestyle and loves spending time outdoors. With a newborn on the way, we’ve made the difficult decision to rehome Maverick so he can continue to flourish in an environment that fits his playful personality. He’ll do best with someone who can give him time, guidance, and lots of fun. He has so much love to give and would be a loyal and joyful companion.

Story
We adopted Maggie from a reputable Dalmatian breeder in South Carolina. She is five years old and we have had her since she was 8 weeks old. She is a part of our family and we love her so much! One year ago, we moved from Florida to Rapid City, SD. My wife is pregnant with our fifth child and with our busy schedules we are too busy to give her the time that she deserves. She is the most loyal and sweetest dog you will ever meet. She is incredibly loving and cuddly and would love nothing more than for someone to want a "velcro dog." Additionally, one of our sons has Reactive Airway Disease and has unfortunately developed a severe allergy to Maggie, which is what has led us to rehoming her. She is the sweetest dog and it breaks our hearts to say goodbye to her.
