Story
Livia (Liv) is a Brindle Pit Mix we adopted from the shelter as a puppy. Our current living situation is putting a lot of stress on her and us- and after a long decision period we have decided the best route is to put her up for adoption and find her an appropriate, trusting, loving home. The ideal owner for Livia is an experienced dog owner who has the time, resources, and willingness to help her be the best companion she can be- she will require additional training. The ideal home environment is a quiet, child-free, fenced yard, and ideally no elderly individuals. Liv will require a moderate amount of outside physical activity and has been raised in-home. She LOVES to roughhouse- but does not understand her size and has very large paws that she likes to put on people when she gets excited. She takes a couple of medications semi-regularly for her knee/joint and skin issues (medical) 100$ fee to help filter-out non-desirable owners. This dog WILL require work and love.

Story
We adopted Zeke in 2019, when he was around 9 months old. We were told in his first home he was abused as a puppy. When we got him, he has been surrendered to Humane Society and was living in foster home with cats and kids. He has lived with us since. We have 2 children and 1 other dog that Zeke lives with. Zeke is very good with our kids. He lets our oldest (3 years old) pet him and he doesn't bother our newborn. Zeke is part German Shepard and is good on walks and runs. Zeke takes monthly heartworm/flea prevention medicine and has not had any major medical issues since we adopted him. He is crate trained and knows how to sit and lay down. He learns very quickly. With the arrival of our newborn baby we have not had the time to give him the exercise and attention he needs. We are looking for someone who has the time to take him on walks every day and has a yard for him to play in.

Story
Koby is a good puppy! He’s very active and loving. We haven’t had him long but I did notice he is very trusting of people. He loves to play with kids and since I’ve had him he hasn’t shown any signs of aggression with a single soul. I got him from someone who didn’t know that their dog was pregnant until a couple of weeks before she had the pups. I planned on giving him a good home but my apartments are not pet friendly. I do believe that he will make the best companion for a family that’s looking for a pup! And lastly he’s obsessed with cuddles!!
