Story
Paddington is a sweet loving dog. But he needs someone who can exercise with him, train him, and ideally has a home with a large yard. Im having him rehomed because im moving soon, and I can't afford to take care of him. He has separation issues and is clingy. I love him but realistically I've neglected him due to health issues, like walking him and training him on a leash, and taking him to the vet. Paddington is about 14 years old but has a energetic playful personality. He gets along with other people and dogs, but not sure about cats. Paddington needs to see a vet about an odor coming from him, im on disability and can't afford to take him. Last time I did the vet gave me some medicated shampoo but that didn't help the problem. I've taken him to groomer and that works for about a week but then it comes back, I think its something internally. Paddington would do well in a home with other dogs.

Story
We are devastated to be rehoming our best boy, Boone. After extensive effort and training, we determined he and our other young male dog would do best in separate homes. He is incredibly friendly, affectionate, and greets everyone with his big toothy grin before flopping over for belly rubs. He is deeply bonded to his people and goes everywhere we go. He has been raised with cats, children, and other dogs. However, there is conflict with our other male dog around food and high-value items, so we feel a single-dog home would be the best and safest long-term fit. He is not other dog aggressive. Boone is potty trained, crate trained, satellite-collar trained on several acres, great in the car, and accustomed to spending full days calmly at our office. He enjoys every activity and will do whatever you do, including ride on a paddleboard! He has an incredibly calm demeanor but loves to play and be silly when the time is right. He is the best companion!
