Story
Nitro is an un-neutered male Rhodesian Ridgeback mix who was dropped off at the fire station. He’s all boy with so much energy and wants to play fetch non stop. No stuffed animals are a match for him, he will make sure every piece of stuffing is thoroughly investigated for safety purposes. Unfortunately his high energy level doesn’t mix well with my senior dog.

Story
Fred is an excellent companion, he’s sweet, playful, loyal, and loves to have fun. He is very vocal when he is hungry or needs to go outside. He has never been aggressive to other dogs, he just sometimes plays rough and doesn’t know his size sometimes(no dog has ever been hurt or harmed). He will bark is if he hears strangers around the property or areas where he lives. Even then, I have only seen him use scare tactics and never aggressive enough to run and bite someone. Fred loves car rides, loves being inside in the A/C. He’s kind of spoiled for a cattle dog, and given a choice would prefer to be inside. Fred a buddy and is ready to have a buddy to love and follow.

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. He does not shed, so he is the perfect indoor dog!

Story
I'm currently going through heartworm treatment. 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.
