Story
Sheena has had a rough start at life. She was adopted as a baby and was taken to the doghouse when her owner did not want to train her. That is where she found herself for a year, with an occasional trip to the house when she got in trouble for barking. She is a sweetheart with no training. She does keep her kennel clean. She is dog-friendly and does love people. She just doesn't know how to respectfully show it. We are working with her and our trainer is starting too. She is truly a gorgeous girl with so much potential.

Story
Bo is a beautiful purebred German Shepherd. My father took in him into our house after he was given to my sister by her coworker. I do not know very much about the coworker but they bought him from a breeder. At the time they were leaving to go out of state and for some reason couldnt take him.Unfortunately I am young myself and have a dog of my own and struggle to find the time to take care of them myself. (My father has just recently been wheelchair bound) I have the documentation from his breeder. Also he is unfixed but if that is a problem I'm in a position to pay for that prior to adoption. Bo is a very friendly and carefree dog, and will get along with others nicely. However he has been very reactive with cats/small creatures. I was told this is a chase drive and could potentially be trained out of him. He reacts very well to a shock/noise/vibrate collar. But, I do not have the time, experience or funds for training. Right now he deserves better than I can give him.

Story
She was living 12 hours a day in a crate, so she needs more work seeing the crate as a safe place. Preferably rehomed with a family thats mostly home. She was never around children, so Preferably a home with teenagers. Loves to follow us around and loves attention. She barks at people she dosen't know but warms up to them after a minute or two. She goes into her crate overnight. Plays fetch and loves to be encouraged to try new things. We took her in because the family that had her couldn't give her the time or attention she needed. She will give you all her love.

Skye was born in September 2025 and is a dog that MUST have another pup in the home! She is fantastic with her canine friends and loves to cuddle up with them. She is cat social and likes kids. Skye starts out on the shy side with humans but warms up to them once she knows they are friendly. She likes to play and is happiest with people that give her time to build her confidence. We just love our sweet girl!
