Story

I’m looking to find a loving new home for my 1-year-old husky, Shyloh. This has been a really difficult decision, but as I prepare to play Division 1 college basketball, I know I won’t have the time she deserves. I got Shyloh from a breeder when she was just 3 months old, and she’s been such a big part of my life, even living with me in the dorms. She’s full of energy, love, and personality, and I truly want her to go to someone who can give her the attention, care, and active lifestyle she needs.

Story

Meatloaf turns 1 year old this month (born in May 2025). He’s the size of a miniature horse, but a big sweet baby. He is very affectionate, playful, energetic, and athletic (he loves to jump over and through things). He’s a mixed breed, we’re not sure what his father was but he’s built like a Great Dane and we think his mother is some form of bull terrier mix.Meatloaf needs a new home ASAP and family that can give him individualized love, care and attention.He comes from a litter of puppies born from a family member’s dog. The family member moved in with us last year, but they’re moving out now and are not able to bring any of the puppies with them to their new home.We’ve tried asking friends, family, and coworkers over the past year if they could adopt him or any of his siblings but have had no luck finding them a home, and now we have too many dogs to take care of on our own.

I pray that he will be a great addition to your family and many beautiful memories are created with love and laughter.
