Story
We are moving across country and won’t be able to take our baby boy with us. He responds to “Bear” and he is full of life. He is a very smart dog and will need someone there who’s willing to work with him and keep him engaged. He does well with scent work and puzzles, and is kennel trained. For house training he does best when a doggy door is available to him but he will smack the front door to let you know he needs out. Bear does show resource guarding against other dogs with certain high value items such as food, water, and bones so all of his meals he spends in his kennel or he is supervised. Because Bear is high energy, I would advise against having very young/small children around him unless you wish to turn your family into a bowling alley. For any other questions please feel free to contact us!

Story
Newt is a young, playful rescue dog from Panama. He was found in a rural village and brought to the U.S. to find a good home! He has been with us for the past months as we get him ready for adoption. Newt is very friendly with all people and kids. He would love nothing more than to play and snuggle all day. He loves strangers. He is crate trained, house trained, and not a big barker. He can be left alone during the work day with no problems. Newt loves to play with other dogs once he knows them, and he has done well with other dogs at dog sitters' houses. However, he can be leash reactive to other dogs out and about. He would need someone willing to work on this with him. We are not sure how Newt would do with a cat, as we do not have one. He is very food motivated, and has great training potential. He knows basic commands. Some other details: He weighs around 40 pounds, is around 1.5 years old, unknown breeds. No known allergies.

Story
Loyal 9-Year-Old Aussie Looking for an Active, Loving Retirement Home We are heartbreakingly seeking a new home for our sweet, handsome 9-year-old Australian Shepherd. Due to major life changes—including a toddler, split-shift work schedules, and an upcoming out-of-state relocation away from family support—we can no longer provide him with the time, walks, and attention he deserves. He is a wonderful companion who is house-trained, dog-friendly, highly food-motivated, and a massive cuddler. Ideal Home Requirements: Family: Great with kids ages 7 and up. No toddlers, as he can get overwhelmed and displays natural herding instincts (rarely nipping to herd. No injuries, but best avoided). Pets: Good with other dogs; no cats (he will chase them). Environment: Someone familiar with herding breeds. He experiences some anxiety (expressed through whimpering) and thrives on routine and companionship. He has so much love left to give and deserves a home that can prioritize his happiness.

Story
Meet Nala ❤️ I grew up around animals and have had everything from reptiles and fish to birds, cats, and dogs. Out of all of them, Nala has been one of the most loving companions I’ve ever had. She may seem intimidating at first, but once she trusts you, she’s incredibly affectionate, cuddly, and loyal. Rehoming her is not easy, so finding the right home is very important to me. Nala is 8 years old and turns 9 in October. She loves walks and being around her people. She can pull on leash and may react to dogs or strangers while leashed, but does much better off leash at dog parks. She’s good with children and has never seriously bitten anyone, though she is sensitive about her tail and may give a warning nip if touched there. She also has a sensitive stomach and does best on Hill’s Science Diet food.

Goofy is a year and a half. He was adopted through the Humane Society. He's energetic, does dig, knows how to sit and shake. Loves other dogs and playtime. Is a bit rambunctious. He's a good dog. I just cannot keep him due to allergies.

Kai is a very loving boy. Honestly one of the best dogs I’ve had the privilege of having. Unfortunately I have to rehome him. He’s a wonderful dog just needs a home without small children under the age of 10
