Story
Kennedy is a rescue from Mexico. He’s an absolute sweetheart and a ladies’ dog. He is an extremely fast runner and can jump really high. He loves to play with other dogs at the dog park and will keep up with you on long walks. He thinks he is a lapdog sometimes and he has the cutest stare. It’s hard not to fall in love with him… I’ve been fostering him for 4 months and just got him neutered two weeks ago. Been trying to find him a home since I brought him, but I want to make sure he goes to the right family. He needs an owner that likes to stay active. Or with a ranch so he has a job, as he is a working dog. He is obedient and a fast learner. He is also crate and potty-trained. He is great to lounge with, as he enjoys just curling up on a fluffy dog bed inside the home

Sadie is a 7 year old Blueheeler German shepherd mix. She is sweet and requires attention as she likes to be with someone. She is a good dog however due tom our growing family we are concerned we cannot keep up with her needs. We really hope to fine her someone who has room or time to take her for walks and give her the love & time she deserves.

Story
Ellie will be a year old in feb, 22. I adopted her from palm valley animal shelter. She is an Australian blue heeler. I did not know of energy this breed has, and bit off more than I can chew. Her energy is very high. She needs someone who can excersie her daily and stimulate her interests. Maybe a ranch, just to keep her working. She loves attention and rubs behind her ears. She goes after cats but will not attack, she is scared of them. She does go after heels but doesn't bit.

Story
Raiden is a 3 year old male Belgian malinois who we have had since puppyhood who enjoys walks and being outside. He is trained for indoors and crate trained as he does not bite items or jump on countertops, and signals when he is ready to go outside for restroom. He is very alert, smart, and high energy but likes to rest plenty through out the day. He likes to cuddle and lay on owners feet and legs. He requires extensive socialization with people and dogs, as he is territorial. It is recommended to monitor him around strangers as he gets very excited to greet/play and may jump/bite out of excitement. He barks at thunder, and noises outside, so anything to help his anxiety is recommended .He is a great guard dog in that regard. We are willing to accommodate any prior preparation. We hope a new home would have plenty of space for him to enjoy both indoors and outdoors along with time to play, train, and socialize.

Story
Sadie is around a year old. She was dumped on my property at around 4 months old. Rehabilitated and got her perfectly healthy for her new home. Super playful. Kennel and house trained but is not leash trained due to being free ranged at my ranch (would have to carry her to and from the vet). I rescue and had all sorts of dogs around her and she has been playful and friendly with them all. She does chase my barn cats so I would say she does best in a dog only household. Indoor/outdoor pup. Really sweet girl, I just don’t have the room to keep her due to the influx of strays that get dumped on my property.
