Story
Dawn survived what no dog should. She arrived at a high kill shelter, pregnant, starving, and infested with fleas and ticks. Her body was so depleted that she tragically lost three of her eight babies, but she never stopped fighting for the rest. Now safe, Dawn is finally learning what love feels like. Shes gentle, submissive, and still a little skittish, moving out of the way because shes never known kindness but shes trying every day, she now wags her tail, takes treats from my hand and plays sweetly with her puppies and our other dog. Her coat is shiny and healthy and you cant see her ribs anymore. Shes blooming into the dog she was always meant to be. Dawn is ready for her forever home as long as that person will love, give her patience a place to decompress when she needs to. Will Dawn be your best friend. Apply to adopt on GetBuddy

Story
It breaks my heart to have to make this decision, but I’m looking for a loving home for my boy, Bullet. He’s a special pup with his own personality, quirks, and so much love to give. I want to make sure he finds a home where he’ll be understood, cared for, and given the time and attention he deserves. This isn’t a decision I’m making because I don’t love him, but because I love him enough to want the very best life possible for him. I hope to find someone who will cherish him, be patient with him, and give him the forever home he deserves. Bullet is a very energetic and playful dog, he loves finding entertainment in any situation he’s in. Since I’ve met him he’s always been very loyal and very protective, but he is not aggressive whatsoever. He’s very curious and friendly. He’s also very talented and can pick up on training quickly. He likes chewing toys and running outside, so a yard is very necessary. He’s grown up with other dogs so that shouldn’t be a problem.
