Story
Hello everyone! I'm helping to spread the word for a friend of mine thats trying to find a good home for this sweet dog. My friend who's an older lady had temporarily taken in this dog when her daughter & family initially lost their home. My friend's daughter & her family can no longer care for this pooch and my friend ( again who's older ) can't care for her anymore. This is a sweet dog, female, about 5ish years old. She is spayed, however I'm not 100% sure if she's microchipped or how current she is on her shots. She currently has no shot records. She is house trained and is good with other dogs, cats, and children. I will say she can be needy, clingy, and demand quite a bit of attention. She has alot of energy ( one of the reasons why my older friend can't care for her anymore ). Her name was initially Snowflake, but my friend renamed her Shadow. But this pooch seems to answer to anything since she's so eager to please. Still figuring out the adoption fee.........Thank you! :]

Story
Yazzie is a blue merle 9-year-old male. I have had Yazzie since he was a puppy and is an amazing companion. He enjoys other dogs, is very active, and has no health problems. He is anxious though and does much better with only an owner or two. He hates loud motorcycles, fireworks, and recently has started to nip at people that get in his face or try to move him if he doesn't want to be moved. He did grow up with children but as he has gotten older doesn't like the frenetic energy of children jumping around. He is incredibly smart and loyal. I am moving to Oregon to go back to school and am unable to give him the care he deserves.

Story
Drake is 9 years old. He is the sweetest grandpa. He really is such a good dog, we are really sad to have him leave us but we dont have the time we thought we did for him and he also has some skin condition that as a first time owners and as college kids we aren't giving him the top tier care we want him to have. Because of his skin problems he is a little stinky but that doesn't stop him from coming up to you amd saying hi. He may be old but we loves a good walk around the park.

Story
Jewel is an 11 year old cattle dog mix weighting 65 lbs. She has some arthritis in her joints and knees that she occasionally takes meds for but other than that is in great health. She was the only dog her whole life so most likely would do better in a house by herself but not sure. She does not love younger children but does just fine with other ones. Moving into an assisted living and can not take her with us😕.

Story
Rocket is a 3 year old male blue heeler. We have had him since a puppy. He comes from a loving home with two other dogs. I think Rocket is the Alpha. Lol. Rocket is protective of our family a characteristic of blue heelers. He is fun and active and very smart. Rocket has only been around our dogs and family. My son is moving to California to go to school and will not be around much. He is very heart broken to do this but would like to find Rocket a new home with a yard to run and someone who will be around more. We aren't in a rush as we want him to go to a good home. He has a crate, toys, blankets and a leash. He loves walks and being outdoors. If you are familiar with this breed we are interested in rehoming to you. Rocket is loyal and after a few days of having him you will see he will become your best friend. A home where he is the only dog may be the best. He thrives on loyalty.
