Story
Rugar is a big, roudy, playful, protective, loud, affectionate, smart baby. He is very protective and can act aggressive. He barks. He's big so he's intimidating. Rugar is good with other dogs. He's good with older kids. He's big and doesn't realize his strength and may knock down smaller kids. He's very smart and learns fast. Rugar would actually do better with a male in charge. He responds much better to men than women. Rugar is 4 yrs old. He's a good boy! I am 71 and now recuperating from a broken hip. Yes, Rugar took me down. He was in a frenzy running outside a lady's fenced yard, chasing her dogs. She has 5. I am forced to keep Rugar on a leash/chain. Something I said I would never do! He's miserable! He needs to be able to run.

Story
Dante is medically reactive as he has an infected ear. He refuses to let me give him the necessary medication for his ear, and I cannot deal with this ontop of school! I am taking him Monday 12/8/2025 to have all his shots refreshed again, and get the vet to do the medication this time. Dante would be great in an experienced owner’s care in which there are a small amount of animals.

Meet Ghost! Ghost is a 3-year-old German Shepherd who is smart, loyal, and full of love. He’s patient with kids and gets along well with other dogs.

He can be reactive to strangers and needs a secure yard and adults or older kids who understand large, active dogs. Ghost thrives in a calm, predictable home and will be a devoted companion to the right family. Ideal home: Calm, structured household with time for exercise and supervision. He’s ready to give his heart to someone who matches his energy! **Please note- Ghost is a fearful dog who needs training to help build his confidence! Ideally he would go to a home that is experienced in working with this type of behavior. He has so much potential but needs someone who has the time and resources to work with him.**
