Story

Zero came into my life at a time when I didn’t even realize I needed him. I wasn’t really looking for a dog, just scrolling one day when I saw this little face that instantly caught my attention. Something about him felt different like he already belonged to me before we even met. When I finally went to see him, he didn’t bark or act wild like the others. He just looked at me, calm and curious, like he was choosing me too. From that moment, it was a wrap.Bringing Zero home felt natural, like he had always been part of my world. He adjusted quick, learned my routines, and became my shadow. Whether I’m having a good day or a rough one, he’s right there loyal, real, and always in my corner. He’s more than just a dog; he’s family, a reminder of how the right connection can find you when you least expect it. Just fond out my newborn daughter is allergic to dogs so I need to get rid of him.

Story

About 4 years ago we were on a trip to the Ozarks with some friends when we found Peter along with a mom and 2 siblings. They were so adorable we all claimed one. They were all scared. And very skittish with people. The vet estimated the pups to be a few months old. They were scared of people. So, we brought Peter everywhere, including Home Depot. My spouse is military. We move a lot. However, I’m on my own a lot because of my Spouse’s job. I’ve had 2 back procedures and 2 back surgeries in the past 5 months. So, I’m not rehoming Peter because he’s a bad boy. He’s an excellent boy! I’m recovering at home alone while my spouse is deployed. He really needs a home with attention and with someone who can play and rough around with. He gets very excited when happy. I love that about him and his sweet wet nose. But we can’t give him what he needs. He needs affection, attention, exercise and all the rest. He’s great! He’s come a long way and deserves so much more.He loves brushing his teeth!

Details

Good with kids, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Her name is Milly, she was born Dec 28, 2025. She is very playful and loving. She needs someone who has time for her. She is a little bit trained, she sits, lays, wait for the command eat to eat. She loves to run and play and is very easy to teach from my experience. I simply do not have enough time for her due to being in the military and lots of late nights at work. I love her and she is so good, but I cannot keep her because the long time separation can cause separation anxiety in a dog. Hope she finds a loving home soon.

She’s a sweet girl. She loves to hike, go to the lake, all the things. Unfortunately, I no longer have the time for her that she deserves with my work schedule. She’s silly, smart, calm but energetic when she needs to be.
