Story
We adopted Eli from a shelter 9 years ago. He's a 12-year-old Miniature Schnauzer and very devoted and affectionate. He knows basic commands and is housebroken (though has been having accidents indoors due to newly diagnosed Cushing's disease). He still runs/climbs stairs easily, and he adores walks, car rides, and napping in sunny spots. He loves being close to his person and thrives in a calm home. He was recently diagnosed with Cushing's disease, and while it's manageable with a daily pill, we're no longer able to pursue further testing or treatment. Our high-energy home with two small children has also become too overwhelming for him. He's startled by kids and has snapped, so an adult-only home is best. He has some leash reactivity, some separation anxiety, and a history of resource guarding (which disappears when I'm away). He also has well-managed megaesophagus. We're hoping to find him a quiet, loving home where he can live out his senior years with peace and care.

Story
Meet Tabitha! Tabitha is a playful, moderately energetic 7-month old 20lb puppy who LOVES toys, treats, and exploring. She particularly enjoys fetch in the backyard with a squeaky ball. (She also loves playing inside with a squeaky ball or rope toy!) She's a good walker, and will make an excellent walking/hiking/running buddy once she's got her leash skills dialed in. After a couple days of complaints, Tabitha now settles into her crate beautifully both during the day and at night. She is very food-motivated, and while we're working on her tendency to jump, she has already learned that only sitting will get her what she wants. In all, she's a happy dog who just sometimes needs help containing all that excitement in her tiny body. Tabitha also LOVES people and playing with other dogs. If you're new to your neighborhood, she'll make friends for you! She'd be a wonderful addition to a home with adults who love the outdoors (she loves to sit and sunbathe when she's not chasing a ball or exploring), and potentially with older children who can handle puppies calmly. While she's a dog that will need moderate physical exercise, she will primarily need loving adopters willing to provide consistent training and mental stimulation -- she might even enjoy exploring dog sports.
