Story
🐾 Looking for the perfect retirement home for Pepper 🐾 Because of our upcoming move, I need to find a special home for my sweet girl, Pepper. She is an approximately 9-year-old female Australian Shepherd, and this is one of the hardest decisions I've ever had to make. My only goal is finding the right person and the right environment for her to spend her golden years happy and loved. About Pepper: ❤️ House trained ❤️ Kennel trained ❤️ Knows several basic commands ❤️ Good with cats ❤️ Loves her people deeply and is incredibly loyal ❤️ Enjoys having her own person and her own space Pepper is looking for a home where she can be the only dog. She has not done well living with other dogs and truly thrives when she doesn't have to share her home or attention. Because of her strong herding instincts and prey drive, she also would not be a good fit for a home with free-ranging chickens. Her ideal home would be: 🏡 A quiet home where she can be the center of attention

Story
River is 15 months old and very sweet! He LOVES the water and could swim all day long. He is very cuddly and loves to play fetch! He is kennel trained, and knows basic commands (sit, shake, lay). He does not do well with cats or small animals. We are so sad to have to rehome him because he and our older dog do not get along well. He does not shed due to his poodle mix!

I was found as a stray near Hawley with Neffie, Erin and Kelly. The nice people at Taylor Jones Humane Society are taking good care of me. They tell me I'm really sweet. I don't know about that, but I like to play. If you could come get me, we could play together.

I was found as a stray at Kirby Lake. I had burrs in my hair causing sores and I need a lot of TLC. The nice people at Taylor Jones Humane Society are taking good care of me. They tell me I'm really sweet. I don't know about that, but I like to play. If you could come get me, we could play together.
