Story
Sammy is an Australian Shepherd/Lab mix. He is approximately 1 year old and weighs 69 pounds. He was found running on a highway and was scared to death. A lovely couple picked him up and had his shots done. Sammy is neutered and would do better with a family with no children. He loves to play with other dogs and has lots of energy to run and play. He is a great medium sized dog and has a gorgeous coat and beautiful eyes. In concern for families with small children, we will not adopt a dog to a home with any child under the age of 5.

Story
Molly is a 1 ½ year old chunky monkey full Saint Bernard. She has more energy than most Saints dream of. She loves to play fetch and would love for someone to take her on walks and give her the attention and training that she needs. She is approximately 100 pounds and could stand to lose a few pounds. She is spayed, current on all vaccinations, heartworm negative and house trained for the most part. If you are wanting a fabulous Saint Bernard that can be active with their humans, Molly should be considered. She is always happy and is always so excited to see and be touched by her humans. Molly would prefer to be the only dog, however, she lived with her mother and sister most of her life. In concern for families with small children, we will not adopt a dog to a home with any child under the age of 5. This is due to the large size of Saint Bernards and the safety of your children. Our Saint Bernards are not aggressive or mean in any way, they can just knock down children easily.

Story
AhSoka (aka Soka) has a ton of energy and is always willing to go on walks or runs, and play tug of war with toys. She loves toys but she is very gentle with them. She loves to keep her toys close and will put them next to her beds.Soka would do best with dogs her own size or bigger, with proper introductions and time. With her high energy she tends to get in the personal space of other dogs without realizing that they may not like it. She has been around small dogs but most of them tend to dislike her high energy and when they snap at Soka she will take it as an attack. For that reason she would do better as an only dog until she can adapt to other, preferably bigger dogs. Soka is great with people. She loves to cuddle on the couch or bed but doesn't always need to be right there with you. Once she sees nothing exciting is going on she sometimes goes to her room or bed to chill on her own. Otherwise she is all about laying in your lap. She needs a few interactions with different females in order to grow accustomed to them but she is then super friendly. Soka is good with kids who know how to be around big dogs. Soka has a high prey drive with squirrels so she will not do well with cats. Soka has not been pool tested but she will handle a bath just fine.Soka is house and kennel trained. She knows basic commands such as sit and shake.

Needs special attention, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Sullivan is a gorgeous, 7-month-old pure Saint Bernard puppy. Sullivan was a stray puppy that was found with his mother, Nana. Sullivan is approximately 65 pounds and is as cute as a button. He is about 85% potty trained and has a very deep voice for such a little boy. He will be neutered by the middle of November. He is current on all vaccinations. Sullivan is, however, a special needs Saint. He was born with hip issues on one of his back legs. Most of the time it does not affect him, and we are not sure as he grows older what the expectations will be of his hips. We are happy to discuss his medical needs in more detail. He is currently not on any medication and runs and plays fine. In concern for families with small children, we will not adopt a dog to a home with any child under the age of 5. This is due to the large size of Saint Bernards and the safety of your children. Our Saint Bernards are not aggressive or mean in any way, they can just knock down children easily.

Story
Nana is the mother of Sullivan, the 7-month puppy. Both were found to be strays. Nana weighs approximately 110 pounds and has a beautiful rough coat. She is spayed, current on all vaccinations and heartworm negative. She does have an extra long tongue which she was either born with or it was due to trauma sometime in her life. It does not affect her ability to eat or drink, she just has a very long tongue. She is approximately 2-3 years old, has a great disposition and is ready and looking forward to finding a wonderful new forever-home.
