Story
We got Jasper when he was 6 weeks old from Roanoke Spca. He has always been an inside dog but loves to play outside. Hes very sweet. He is good with older kids. He sounds ferocious but is a big teddy bear! Hes very afraid of thunder. He is crate trained. He is pad trained. He knows sit, paw, high five and lay down (sometimes). We love him very much. I recently had a knee injury and can no longer take him for walks. He needs someone who is able to take him for walks and out for runs. Oh, he also loves going for car rides! Ideally, we are looking for someone who has a yard he can play in.

Story
Millie is approximately 4-5 years old and has lived with my daughter and I for a year. She came to us as a result of a break up in Millie’s original home, as her owner moved out after rescuing her from an abusive situation. She had been crated all day and/or left outside with little human contact as well as physically abused. She is smart, energetic, loyal, leash trained but aggressive towards other dogs and people especially if her person walks her. I’ve been walking her before dawn so as not to run into people or dogs. She loves my other dog, our cat, and my grandchildren. She is, however, loving in a protective way and doesn’t seek out the children to play with her. She needs an owner who has time to train her and able to let her run and work to keep her mind and body busy. She will bark at people walking by and/or entering our house but settles if spoken to and petted. She is on Apoquel for allergies and is prone to ear infections. She is anxious and the vet sedates her to groom.

Luna was adopted in Philadelphia, PA 8 years ago and currently resides in Roanoke, VA. She's very energetic, affectionate, loving, and loyal. She was only a few months old when I got her. My family and I are deciding to rehome because our family is expanding, and we just don't have the time for her anymore. She's a great dog that needs love and attention on a regular basis.
