Story

My husband adopted Blu when he was a puppy three years ago. Since then, our family and lifestyle have changed. Blu is a loving, playful dog who adores children and is truly a big baby at heart. He would thrive in a home with plenty of land where he can run and play. Because our family travels often, we want to find him a loving home with someone who can give him the time, attention, and stability he deserves.

Story

Unfortunately we are having to re-home our dog who we got from mckamey, he is only 2 years old as of January 10th due to his size and we are unable to give him the exercise and space he deserves. He knows the basic commands like sit, lay down, go to bed which is in his crate and he can do security (where he will go around and sit between your legs). He will come with 5 months of his flea/tick and heart worm prevention meds; along with his food, crate, two beds, toys, and the rest of his essentials.

Story

I KNOW... WE KNOW... TERRIBLE NAMES... BUT THAT IS WHAT THEY WERE CALLED SADLY. These 2 gals are bonded sisters and have been together for over 8 years. Looking to find them a home to be spoiled in. They love all size dogs and cats and HUMANS AND CHILDREN. They are spectacular loving healthy gals. We run a rescue and brought them in. They have been vetted, groomed and spayed. Even had a lump (not cancer) removal surgery in breast and Flea (had entropy surgery too). All paid by us due to the fact they are so wonderful. I have video and so many photos of them. Free to a loving qualified home. I can even pay for transport to the best possible home for them (within reason). I am a poor Saint Bernard rescue. But these 2 deserve a home of their own. They are well mannered and extremely loving and affectionate. A completed adoption application is required. Please call Dawn 610-787-2353 if You want to know more about these 2 gals. Hoping their new mom and dad will christen them will new loving beautiful names that reflect their personality.
