Story
Ember is a beautiful sable femail German Shepherd around 2 years of age. She is UPD on vaccinations and is spayed. She was rescued from a dire situation where she was left outside.That family had 5 small children and she is wonderful and loving with people and children but MUST be the only dog or pet (no cats as she has prey drive). She does not get along with my male GSD who is extremely docile and is extremely aggressive with him. Fee will be waived for the right home. She would be a wonderful dog with an active family as she loves ball and retreiving. She could also be very good with agility activities.

Story
Cash, a 2-year-old American Pit Bull, was brought to the shelter as a stray. He's a total lover...a friendly and outgoing guy. He waits patiently at his kennel door to be let out into the yard to engage with the other shelter dogs. Cash knows a couple of basic commands but does still need some training and help with walking properly on a leash. He enjoys long walks, giving kisses and getting snuggles. He is okay with most dogs but would likely do better in a home without cats since he is afraid of them. Cash is up to date on his vaccinations and will be neutered prior to adoption.
