Story
Mitzy has developed a possession issue over my husband and myself and has recently turned on our 7 year old hound/lab mix Jack. She needs to be in a home as the ONLY DOG with a strong Alpha human, preferably a man. She has also turned on my twin sister's dog Phoebe. When we first adopted her at the end of December 2024, she got along with Phoebe and Jack. Mitzy turned on Phoebe in August 2025 and she went to a trainer and everything was fine for 5 months. Then she bit Phoebe. Most recently, Mitzy lunged at Jack as if to tell him to get away. Mitzy has gotten along with all dogs outside of her environment and is very loving and playful. She and Jack have played on the beach together or at hiking areas almost daily. Most of the time, she is off leash and stays right with us. Even when she is on a leash, Mitzy has never shown any aggression towards another dog. Her tail is always wagging and she is ready to play. Everywhere we go, people say how beautiful she is.

Story
Oakley is a 4-year-old dog adopted as a puppy through Puppy Rescue Mission after arriving from Romania.

He has completed basic training and knows sit, lay down, Wait, Wait for a treat in-hand Recall: inconsistent / mixed (needs leash + secure environment) Reason for rehoming: Oakley bit a child in our family last week. Because children will continue to be present in our home, we must rehome him for everyone’s safety. This decision is heartbreaking, and we are committed to finding the safest and most appropriate match. Oakley needs: Adult-only home (no children),Experienced owner preferred, Slow introductions, especially to unfamiliar men (can be nervous/unsure), Calm home with structure and clear boundaries Oakley has a lot of love to give and bonds strongly once he feels safe.
