Details
Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained,
Story
Benee came to our family when she was a 7 months old. She is years old. Unfortunately I am not in a position to keep Benee as I am going through many life changes one being not being able to afford the housing to be able to keep her. I am not in a position to keep all of my fur babies and I have had to rehome my cats as well. I am in a difficult position as I am struggling to find any resources to be able to re home Benee. I want her to have a great home and I can't provide that for her any longer. Benee is super playful, such a curious and sweet dog. She adores balls of all forms and loves running laps around the yard. She enjoys sun bathing any chance she gets. She's very vocal and that can get interpreted as intense but she truly means well. She has the mind of a puppy and completely adores having attention and lots of rubs. I truly need to find her a good home. Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions. I appreciate your time.

Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
My parents adopted Max in 2019 to be a family dog. He has been a great dog and he is incredibly easily trained. My siblings and I moved out and we are unable to take him with us and my parents no longer want him. Max was staying with my husband and I but he did not get along with my husband and Max did bite my husband. We would keep him, however my husband is military and with his bite record we cannot bring him on base when we move. He has been in our family for almost 7 years and we do not want to see him put down or in a pound. He is potty trained, and he knows basic tricks like sit, lay down, speak, and heel. He has previously bitten me in the hand after getting into cookies but he was never aggressive towards me before or after that and we were told by the vet that the sugar made him aggressive in that moment. He is a large dog, about 65 lbs, and he is a Sheprador Mix. His birthday is May 31st, 2019. We would love for Max to go to a home where he will be loved and cared for.

We sadly need to rehome our dog. He and our other male dog no longer get along. We have kids at home and it has become difficult/stressful to keep them apart. He is great with kids and other people, he just needs to be an only dog. He’s a 4.5 year old German shepherd / Australian shepherd mix. He is a good dog, listens well and is crate trained. Please only message me if you’re seriously interested in him.

German Shepherd Dog Husky

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Asta is about 4 yrs old, I got him when he was about a year old from a farm house. Asta's personality is very goofy he loves to play fetch and especially loves belly rubs. Knows basic commands such as Sit, Down, Paw, Spin, and roll (He gets lazy with roll and just lays on his back sometimes). Asta is very friendly with kids, but he does forget sometimes how big he actually is, he ends up like a puppy all over again wanting to be carried or become a lap dog. Asta is partially a Husky he is somewhat vocal only when complaining about not receiving enough pets. Loud noises such as Fireworks still startle him, as much as we tried to get him used to it, but nothing that cuddles and a calming treat can handle. My current situation does not allow me to keep him sadly most days he does spend in his cage due to the location, I hope if you do decide to give him a chance you have a backyard that he may run around in and have time to play fetch with him.

Story
This sweet girl was dropped off at my daughter’s place of work, we took her to try and find owner. Not chipped and shelter will only take her if I signed a 3 day only hold. So we kept her to foster till her forever home is found. My daughter is a dog trainer so she is being crate trained and is being kept indoors at night. She is a sweet energetic little girl and wants to play for that, unfortunately we can’t keep her our 4 lb yorkie isnt used to ruff play and is afraid and anxious around her. Shelter updated her shots and deworm shes 3/4 months old Belgian Malinois with shepherd. She is teething at the moment and is a nipper-of ankles but not hard its a playful way.Hoping to find a home with someone who has time to play with her and continue teaching and training her and someone who can love her the way she deserves.
