Story
Meet Baz, our 91 lb 3 y/o German Shepherd mix. Baz is an amazing dog. He is affectionate and intelligent. He likes to train but doesn’t need a ton to tire him out. He’s a sensitive dog who responds well to structure, clear boundaries and praise. He does have some behavioral struggles. We spent thousands of dollars on a 2 month board and train last year, and have continued with private sessions with a new trainer in the last few months. His dog reactivity and overall obedience has improved drastically. But he did attack our other dog recently and has started growling at my wife, who is pregnant. For everyone’s safety and well being, we have to rehome Baz before the baby comes. It is not a good situation for us, or for him. We’ve spent a year investing time and resources into his training, hoping it would be enough, but he needs more. Baz is in tact and up to date on all vaccinations. He is fully e-collar and crate trained. He loves to play tug and knows a bunch of command

Story
Rusty is a handsome boy with a big heart to match his size. Though he’s technically a senior, he has the energy and spirit of a playful pup! Rusty loves nothing more than chewing on his toys and going for long walks, exploring the world with enthusiasm. He’s a social guy who gets along well with other dogs and is fully potty trained. Rusty is also in great health, ready to bring joy and companionship to his next family. Food is definitely one of his greatest loves, so treats and tasty meals will earn you lots of tail wags! Because Rusty is a strong, big boy who doesn’t always know his own strength, he’d do best in a home without small children that can be knocked over or overwhelmed by his size. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion who’s full of life and ready for adventure, Rusty is your guy!

Grace is truly a special dog. She’s a 6-year-old German Shepherd mix and the kind of dog that’s hard not to fall in love with.
