Story
Max was abandoned when he came to live with our family about 9 years ago. Due to financial instability, we are relocating and can't bring him with us. He barks a lot so I think a quiet home would be suitable for Max, maybe a small family or even a single person.

Zane is almost a year and a half he was born in November 2024, he is very energetic and loves to play with anyone who will play with him! Zane is great with kids, cats and other dogs. Zane is house trained and kennel trained, he goes to sleep in his kennel at 8pm. He is a very loving dog, who still likes to think he’s a lap dog and will give you lots of kisses. I am going to be leaving for a deployment and not able to leave him with anyone.

Story
My husband and I adopted Bean when he was 2 and 1/2 years old in 2019. He is very loud and energetic. He needs a lot of exercise and mental stimulation which unfortunately he isn’t getting at home. He currently takes anxiety medication sometimes. We adore Bean. He’s silly and loves to play but is also kind of aloof and just wants to chill alone. He’s not really a cuddler but he likes to sit really close to you and is very obsessed with pets. We have a toddler and unfortunately he makes Bean really anxious, although he handles the toddler well. I think he would be best in a home with no children or older children. He does ok with most dogs if introduced correctly. He does well with our cat but barks at all other cats. He also has a nervous humping problem with strangers, especially men. He might do better in a house with only women, or at least one non male person. He have a microchip but it is not activated. He is about 8 years old.
