Story
Have you ever heard the term parents use to describe their very adorable, but very bratty children? I believe they call them Sassholes, and if you were to use a word to describe Bunny that would be it. Speaking of children, they are a hard pass for Bunny, he's not into nonsense, and therefore does not want to share a home with anyone who can't legally drink..and if you are the guardian of Bunny, you're going to want to drink. "What do you mean? you may ask, "His name is Bunny, isn't he sweet and innocent? No...Bunny came to us with his name, and we are now thinking it was a guise by his previous owner, to ensure we would accept him into the rescue. Bunny is a 12 lb ball of fury, who has been with us for two years. Not because people haven't wanted to adopt him, but because we weren't ready to release this menace into society. Now, Bunny does have some redeeming qualities, he's potty trained, crate trained, walks better on a leash then any of my other dogs, and will definitely keep you entertained with his antics. He'll greet you excitedly at the door when you return home, just make sure you pet him for exactly the amount of time he deems appropriate and not a moment longer, if you'd like to keep all of your digits. If you're the kind of person that likes decorative pillows (you can look but don't touch) then Bunny could be a match for you. Bunny's ideal home would be a single woman, or woman only household. He could grow to tolerate a man, like most of us learn to, but would prefer not to. Bunny currently lives with other dogs, where he punks them on the daily. Can he share a home with another dog? sure! Will your other dogs question what karmic laws they broke to deserve their new "brother daily, ABSOLUTELY. Now if you've read this entire bio and are still considering adding Bunny to your home, we can ensure you that the little guy is truly special. Although we wrote this bio to get some laughs and hopefully a lot of exposure for our "Bun Boy we know that in a loving, understanding, and patient home Bunny would thrive. Please reach out to us with any questions ##1312785##

Story
**READ FULL DESCRIPTION** Ace will need a dedicated owner willing to work with his fear based aggression to be the best he can be. This spunky little guy deserves it! Ace was surrendered to us when his owner could no longer care for him.  We have gotten to know Ace over the past month in a Kiss My Paws foster home, and here are some things about him.   Ace requires an understanding and predictable home environment to help him manage and recover from his fear based aggression.  Ace is hyper vigilant, and when he feels something is amiss he will give a warning growl and then may snarl and even lunge/charge at a nearby person in order to try to control his environment.  When he recovers from a behavioral episode his caretakers can see in his demeanor that he is ready again to interact and keep building on positive behaviors. Ace takes trazodone and cbd oil to help him with his emotions, but may be a good candidate for exploring different medicines to help him as he progresses.   Ace “guards” his toys and leashes at times, but he is workable in trading for different items and cleaning out his stash to be re-earned.  Ace shows no resource guarding of food at all and has no reaction to his foster sibling coming into his space and eating uneaten food, etc.  Ace prefers to sleep in a crate. BASED ON OUR OBSERVATIONS: Good with Children: Teens and Older due to understanding of his needs Good with Dogs: Yes of like size - lives with another small dog Good with Cats: Unknown
