Story
Looking to rehome our sweet girl. She is 5 years old, we got her from her previous owner who had her since she was 8 weeks. She came from a multi dog home, she loves people and kids, I'm not sure how she is with toddlers. My neighbors have dogs and she gets along with them, however, she seems to be depressed when periods go without seeing them. We got her as a companion for my son but she bonded with me and I travel for work and this is affecting her. We have a large yard that is not fenced in and within two days of having her she knew her parameters and never leaves the yard. She loves to lay outside and is a bit of a couch potato. She will be truly missed by my family but she seems unhappy and as an animal lover, her happiness is more important than ours. We've never had any issue with her, other than the fact she will chase a cat. All of her shots were done last month, so she is up to date on everything. I feel it would be best if she was in a home with other dogs or family.

Story
Meet Oswald, a gentle giant with a heart as big as his frame. This lovable fellow is believed to be a fun blend of Rhodesian Ridgeback and Great Dane, though it is his Ridgeback side that shines through most prominently. His coat boasts a striking red sable coloring, a rich blend of reddish- brown with distinctive black-tipped fur and a stunning face mask. Although he is a larger dog, Oswald exudes a certain grace that is a joy to watch. His eyes, large and inquisitive, reflect the kindness and intelligence that radiates from within. Oswald's affectionate nature is undeniable; he's quick to offer love and companionship to anyone and everyone he meets. While Oswald's size and exuberance may require a bit of understanding, especially with smaller children, his amiable nature makes him a wonderful companion for families with prior experience handling larger breeds. This delightful pup enjoys the companionship of other dogs, once they have been properly introduced. He has had some struggles with dog reactivity, but is doing great with training, and will only continue to improve with a consistent, patient, and strong owner. He has not spent much time inside around cats, but is comfortable seeing and walking near them while on outside. When it comes to care, Oswald is fine with a quiet day inside, but also loves to get out, whether it’s the beach or a local walking trail. On walks, he's a model of composure, walking wonderfully on leash and very responsive to corrections. In essence, Oswald is an absolute sweetheart just looking for his forever people.

Meet Charmy, a girl who truly lives up to her name! She’s playful, adventurous, and always ready for a sniff-filled walk or a good zoom around the yard. Charmy already knows her basic commands, is crate trained, and is highly food motivated, which makes her eager to continue learning new things. Charmy has done wonderfully in a foster home and should settle in beautifully with her forever family. All she asks for is a cozy bed to snooze in and a quiet yard where she can sniff, explore, and soak up the sunshine. Charmy would do best as the only dog in the home, but she absolutely adores people and affection — even if she gets a little extra excited when meeting someone new! If you’re looking for a fun, loving companion to be your one-and-only, Charmy is ready to charm her way right into your heart. Apply to meet her today! -> https://k9sforwarriors.tfaforms.net/17

Story
Bryce came into our lives at 2.5 years old after we fostered and then adopted him. He is a loving, affectionate dog who has been great with our daughters and adjusted well to living with our rescue cats. He loves to be snuggled, play, run, and especially enjoys the dog park, where he does very well off leash.Bryce is strong, energetic, and would thrive with an experienced owner who can provide structure, exercise, and continued training. Because of his size and excitement, he can accidentally knock over small children while playing, so he’d do best in a home with older kids or adults.He can be reactive toward other dogs while on leash but is friendly and social off leash. He also struggles when left alone and has destructive tendencies, likely due to separation anxiety, so crate training and routine would likely help him greatly.Bryce is a big-hearted dog who deserves a patient, calm home that can help him feel secure and reach his full potential.

Story
Meet Enzo — the big dog with big energy and even bigger “oops, my bad” vibes. This lovable goofball is a certified clutz. Enzo doesn’t run so much as he springs from left to right like a cartoon character who hasn’t quite figured out how his legs work yet. Watching him play is like watching a very enthusiastic toddler in a dog costume.He loves playing with other pups, but despite his size, Enzo prefers friends who are gentle, dainty, and won’t judge him when he accidentally trips over his own feet. He’s a sweet boy with a soft heart and a goofy spirit, just trying his best out there.If you’re looking for a dog who will make you laugh daily, keep you entertained, and charm you with his wiggly, sideways spring-run, Enzo is your guy.

I adopted Tula from a pet adoption event last October, I’m now pregnant and due in August, she’s become territorial over me towards my partner. She also has some resource guarding issues regarding her food. So we made the hard decision to rehome her. Besides her challenges, she’s crate trained, house trained. Pretty obedient for her age. And full of love.
