Story
My wife and I adopted our two dogs in Okinawa, Japan. Rocky (German Shepard) and Oki (Japanese Akita) are both very well-behaved house dogs. Their shots are up to date. Unfortunately, we are moving again and will not be able to take them with us. My son has also grown an allergy to the dogs so that is another reason we will not be able to bring them along with us. We are looking for a family to adopt because they love kids. We would prefer them to be adopted together however, if need be we are willing to separate them.

Story
Hi, my name is Hobart and I would love to meet you. I have been at the shelter since Jul 11, 2023. All my friends say that I`m pretty affectionate and if that means I like getting pets and having my paw held, that`s definitely true! When I`m not being a love-bug, I love going on casual walks where I can sniff the breeze and feel the sun on my fur. I can`t wait to add a lot of cuddle time to your routine!

Hi, my name is Eddie and I would love to meet you. I have been at the shelter since Jul 29, 2023. “Play” is my middle name! Fetch, tug-of-war, frisbee – I’ve done my research and I love it all! Playing together and having fun, followed by curling up at your feet or on the couch would be my absolute ideal day.
