Story
Audrey is a smart and energetic 6yo girl who loves to please. She is thrilled to have a job & really seemed to thrive when she shared a backyard with chickens. She currently lives near a park with a lot of foot & vehicular traffic which isn’t her cup of tea. She would love to be someone’s constant companion in an environment with other animals.

Story
This is Isabella! She’s an 11-month-old, 27-pound Beagle/German Shepherd mix with the sweetest personality. Adopted from the Lynchburg Humane Society, she has been an absolute angel from day one.Isabella is very smart she already knows Sit, Laydown, Middle, and Hand Shake! Overall, she has a very calm temperament, but she loves to play, cuddle, and sleep. Because of busy work schedules, I'm looking to find her a wonderful new home where she can get all the care and time she needs.She is spayed, up-to-date on her shots. Included in adoption will be a bag of food, treats, crate, soap, slow feeder, water bowl, and toys.Adoption fee waived if proof of donation of fee amount to a local shelter.

Story
Mavis is a happy, healthy 4-year-old who loves other dogs more than anything. She craves canine company, and the vast majority of dogs she meets become instant playmates. She'd be happiest with a playful dog sibling and an active family who loves being outdoors. She's great with kids and gets along with cats. She sleeps in her crate at night, is comfortable spending time in a fenced yard, and loves car rides. To be upfront: Mavis does best with a small circle of dog friends rather than large groups. In busy settings like group daycare, where she's around 20 to 30 dogs at once, she's occasionally had a scuffle with one dog she didn't click with. With the dogs she knows and likes, she's a joy. A home with one or two dog-friendly dogs, plus a proper introduction, is her ideal setup.
