Story
Bolt is a loving and loyal companion looking for a patient and understanding forever home. This special dog deserves a chance at happiness with someone who understands their needs and can provide a stable, structured environment. Personality Once he meets you he'll just want to follow you around and crawl into your lap and snuggle. Though he struggles with some human and pet interactions, he forms deep bonds with the right people. Bolt thrives in a calm, consistent environment where he can feel safe. Special Considerations Experienced owner required: Given Bolt's bite history with cyclists several years ago and a small dog a couple years ago, he requires a confident, experienced adopter who can provide structure. Secure environment: A fenced yard is needed to give him a safe space to play and relax. Other dogs: He can get along with other dogs if they have the right personality and fit and meet slowly, like a large submissive dog. You could be the one to give him a second chance.

Story
Phoebe is 10 years old but you wouldn’t know it. She is very active and loves to run. She does have some skin allergies. She is a master at cuddling. She does very well with people, she is quite social, always asking for pets. She does *not* do well with other small animals like cats, lizards, etc. We have had her for her entire life but we are longer able to keep up with her as our lives have changed. We are looking for someone that is able to allow her to run more freely.

Story
Dahli is an incredibly sweet and energetic girl. She’s a snuggle bug that needs lots of affection but she’s also happy to just be in the same room as you. She’s 8 years old and has been a huge part of our life. But now that we have a toddler we have had to come to the very difficult decision to let her go. This has been a heartbreaking decision, because she is truly such a good and loving girl. Dahli is very sweet but she is getting more and more grumpy as she ages, she has shown signs of reactivity to our son and because of her size we cannot justify keeping her if we have any doubt about her hurting him. She’s not a dog for a family, she’s a dog for an adult that wants a loyal and loving friend and companion.She’s great with our German Shepherd, so it’s possible she would get along with another dog but she is an “alpha” dog so it would need to be a docile dog that will not challenge her.

Story
Snoopy is a loving and energetic companion who will snuggle with you if given the chance. He loves people and may seem standoffish at first, but quickly comes to give love and receive scratches. He likes to play and is great with children but could use some training to ensure he doesnt jump on people. Due to unfortunate circumstances his previous owner is no longer in the picture.

Story
Pearl is the sweetest dog. She has a lot of energy. We have another older Bernedoodle who is older and has a different disposition. More stoic really. Pearl is goofy and friendly but we have struggled to train her. She jumps and has occasional accidents in the house. I have noticed when I’m less busy she gets better with this issue. It pains me to put her up for adoption but my husband is at his wits end and I am too busy to really train her properly. I have not wanted to accept this but it’s the reality and I believe we need to find a place for Pearl where she can get the attention she needs to be her best self. I know with more attention and bandwidth from her owner she will really thrive. I have a taxing job and a child with special needs and just need to be realistic about my bandwidth. I hope she finds a wonderful loving home.
