Story
In December'23 I took Tango in from a co-worker that had found him in Georgia and brought him back to Iowa. He was roughly 6mths old, his birthdate we believe is around 5/18/23 so he's alittle over 2yrs old now. We lived on an acreage, and he grew up loving the outdoor life, running and playing. He Loves the snow! Due to a life situation, I moved into town in 2025 and that has changed his life. He has a fenced in yard but it's not big enough to run off his energy and I can tell he's getting anxious. Tango has only been around one other dog while I was having my fence built and the two were always separated. So I have no idea how he will interact with other dogs. He has a very good demeanor, loves to have attention, loves playing and likes walking. Everyone is amazed at how smart he is. He is absolutely beautiful. He is truly a wonderful and it breaks my heart to let him go. The only reason I'm wanting to find a home him is because I am not doing justice for his breed.

Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
We got her at 12 weeks old from a family on a farm in Iowa. She is now 9. She lived with a lab mix from age 2-6. She has never lived with a cat but has met one and mainly ignored her. She really enjoys being wherever we are and playing fetch with sticks. She also loves lakes/the river. She is a timid but obedient dog. She has anxiety but we believe it is from her not getting enough exercise and focus. She is scared of strangers. She gets her nails trimmed regularly. She doesn’t get carsick. She was not formally trained, but knows basic commands. She is currently wearing a Tailsaver due to her pulling out her hair due to anxiety and making it raw. Her tail is permanently missing hair at the end. We have a 19 month old that makes her anxiety worse. We’d love her to go to an individual/family who is active, will take her on regular walks, has a yard, and wants to incorporate her to all aspects of life. She does have her rabies vaccine up to date as of 12/16/25.

Story
Re-homing Ace and ash together. They are bonded at five years old from the same litter. Ace gets anxious at times. He is not friendly with strangers in the home. He does not do well with kids. He did bite our daughter when she accidentally fell on him. He did not break skin but because of this I feel like he needs to be in an adults only home. He’s very obedient and intelligent. Ash is very loyal and protective and stands at my side outside of the house. He’s also very sweet and intelligent and loved to play catch and with soccer balls. Experience with German Shepards a must.
