Smart, affectionate hiking buddy looking for his person ♡Ryker is 1.5 years old, house-trained, crate trained, and incredibly intelligent.

Story
Chico is a little over 4 years old, but sometimes still acts like a puppy. He is so good with people and kids but can be aggressive toward other animals. He loves to play and is good on a leash, but will run if he gets loose. He likes to go on walks. He loves to be around people and has a very big and playfully happy personality. He does like to nip playfully when he gets excited if you get too close to his face. He does not go to the bathroom in the house if taken out regularly. Chico would thrive best in a home with no other pets and owners who are home often. He enjoys being outside and playing. He loves toys and stuffed animals and stays occupied well with bones and toys. He is crate trained as well. He does not get along with our other male dogs and has been having to stay in his kennel during the day, mostly only being out at night or when taken out to the bathroom. We love him so much and are looking for a better quality of life for him.

Story
We prefer Daisy to be adopted with Duke. This chill duo were abandoned by their previous owner and are estimated to be 4 years old. Desert Willow took them in and immediately fell in love with them because it's impossible not to! Daisy and Duke are the most laid-back pups at the rescue. They are marginally interested in exercise, Duke more so than Daisy, and they enjoy a nice stroll to explore and sniff around. Their ideal activity, however, is cuddling up on the couch and showering you with kisses. They are wonderful with children! As excellent students, they are picking up on their training skills very quickly. They are both described by everyone as being so sweet and gentle. Daisy adores belly rubs, and will happily present her belly to anyone who may rub it! Duke loves beds – oh so much. He is very resourceful and will carry his bed around with him so that it’s always handy for a good nap. They are the perfect pair if you're looking for chill, kissy cuddlers. They offer an instant canine family.... just add you! No cats please. Reach out if you're interested!! Located in: Dane County, WI _____ Desert Willow Ranch and Rescue https://www.desertwillow.org/

Story
Meet Juno! She is a very energetic 1 year old girl who was rescued from a severe abuse and neglect situation in Lubbock, TX. She was found chained on a short chain in her backyard and was only 25lbs (she is 45lbs now and still has weight to gain!). Now, she is here at Desert Willow learning about freedom and love. She has done amazing with people and kids and is bursting at the seams with joy and love. She RUNS whenever she can, throws toys in the air and chases them, cuddles passionately and just wants to find her human. She may need to be an only dog at this point as she has had some bad experiences it appears, but she will be your true companion. She would be ideal for someone who is active and possibly enjoys hiking, running, and/or swimming. Come meet her! She is always ready to meet you!
