Story
Bruno came into my life when he was 8 weeks old and is now 6 years old. His birthday is October 13th. He came from a farm in Cherokee Iowa, he was the smallest of the litter. He currently weighs about 60 lbs. Bruno is an extremely loyal dog! He loves to play fetch, he could play for hours! You’ll be his best friend if you have a ball to throw. A home with a yard to play in would be best for him. Unfortunately, he doesnt do well with other pets or small children which is the reason I need to rehome. I recently had a baby and Bruno is not a fan. A home with no children under 12 and no other pets would be best.

Story
I'm rehoming my 8 year old black lab named Rocco. I have a ton of his stuff to give you as well. This includes, bed, bowls, harnesses, leashes and food. We work long hours and are getting ready to have a baby in April and moving in June so unfortunately we are unable to give him the time he deserves. He is a very loving dog that absolutely loves cuddles on the couch and snuggling up in a blanket. Rocco is great with other dogs, kids and cats. He is a little afraid of cats but does coexist with them well. He is up to date on his shots and is neutered/microchipped. He is well trained and does not use a kennel while inside the house. His favorite past times are sun bathing on a deck or in the grass and going to dog parks. Would love to set up a meet and greet if you would like and answer any questions you may have!

✨ Meet Sterling! ✨ This big, handsome Lab/Doberman mix knows how to make an entrance! With his shiny coat, soulful expressive eyes, oversized floppy ears, and that wildly happy full-body tail wag, Sterling is an absolute heartthrob just waiting for his forever spotlight. 💙 Sterling’s journey hasn’t always been easy. Rescued from a hoarding situation where he was once afraid of his own shadow, he has absolutely blossomed into a confident, affectionate, and joyful boy. Watching him discover the world with curiosity and bravery has been nothing short of amazing! With that newfound confidence comes some big-time energy! Sterling will thrive in a home ready for his size, strength, and playful spirit. He doesn’t believe in personal space — in fact, he’s convinced he’s a 10-pound lap dog and would love to lean his entire body against you for maximum snuggles. If you’re standing still, prepare to be gently (and lovingly) squished. Sterling does well in his crate, enjoys the company of cats, and is working hard on polishing up his leash manners. He can have some big feelings about dogs he sees while on leash, but with proper introductions, he can do well. He’s a smart cookie who picks up on cues quickly and is already mastering “sit,” “down,” “come,” “up,” and “go potty!” This boy loves to learn and thrives with guidance and structure. His little facial scars may hint at stories from his past, but Sterling isn’t looking back — he’s focused on the bright future ahead. And what he wants most is a family to call his own. With a heart as big as he is, Sterling is ready to be the missing puzzle piece in someone’s life

Story
Meet Nella — the tiniest sister with the biggest spark! ✨🐾 She may be the smallest of her siblings, but don’t let her size fool you — this little lady keeps up with the best of them! While she can be a touch shy at first, all it takes is a gentle hand and she absolutely melts into you. Instant puddle mode. 💛 Nella is as sweet as they come — gentle, adaptable, and fantastic at playing (or lounging!) with dogs of all sizes. She shows very little prey drive and has clearly been taking notes from her big siblings, because she’s eager to learn and picks things up quickly. In fact, she gives off major “fun auntie” vibes — grooming and caring for smaller dogs like it’s her part-time job! She’s goofy, spunky, and just waiting for her personality to fully shine with a little time, patience… and maybe a squeeze of cheese wiz. 🧀😉 This smart cookie already has the hang of loose leash walking and would likely make an amazing running or hiking buddy as the weather warms up. She’s got energy when it counts and cuddle skills when it matters. The best of both worlds! After escaping a housing situation no dog should ever experience, Nella is ready for a fresh start. She dreams of a quieter, slower-paced home where she can feel safe, snuggle often, and play freely with a family lucky enough to call her theirs. Come meet Nella and be the reason her next chapter is the happiest one yet. 💕

Story
Ball? Did you say ball? I am a beautiful lab who has lived with other dogs in the past. I love to have belly rubs and walk pretty well on a leash--wait would you please throw my ball for me? I am super motivated by fetch. I only have use of one eye due to an injury as a puppy but it doesn't slow me down. Throw my ball for me and find out how awesome I am at fetching it despite my vision impairment.
