Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

This is Onyx. He is 3 years old. Onyx is a very loving dog. He loves people and most dogs. He is very high energy. He needs constant stimulation and exercise. I have been dealing with ongoing and progressive health issues that makes me immobile at times. I cannot exert his energy the way he needs. My boyfriend works two jobs and also cannot. He is just not getting what he needs from us and we do not have access to a place for him to run and play freely. This is not what we want to do. We love him and have had him from a puppy. But we can tell he would be happier with someone who can be more attentive and active. We only want what is best for Onyx. Would do best with someone who can walk him daily or someone who has a fenced yard for him to play in. He likes other dogs but has a history of resource guarding. We would recommend no other small animals or livestock either.

Details

Good with kids, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained,

Story

Freya is a high-energy cuddlebug who lives for playtime and snuggles. After destroying a squeaky toy (her favorite!), she’ll curl up right next to her person to nap. She absolutely adores people — especially kids — and is both house- and crate-trained (with occasional accidents right after meals). • 💕 Personality: Playful, goofy, affectionate, very people-oriented • 🐶 Other animals: Neurotic around other dogs, not safe with cats • 🏠 Training: House-trained, crate-trained, leash-trained • 🎾 Loves: Squeaky toys, chin/belly rubs, giving kisses Freya would do best as an only dog in a cat-free home, with a family who can match her energy and love of cuddles.

4 male puppies

Border Collie

Male, Puppy

Longview, WA

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

These guys are from an accidental litter we had- they were born 8/31/25. These are the 4 boys (they don’t have to be adopted by 1 individual) they are very playful, sweet, affectionate. My cat doesn’t like them but they haven’t tried to chase her, though they are very curious about her. They are good with each other and they try to play with the older dogs in the house. They are also really good with my kids- my youngest is 7 and there hasn’t been any issues. They each have been similar in the bath- they are afraid of the tub faucet when it’s on but they don’t mind being scrubbed or rinsed. They don’t nip, but they do try and exit the tub. I don’t want an adoption fee, I just want these guys to find good homes as soon as possible.
