Story
Ellie is a very sweet mixed dog. We believe she is part German Shepard. She was a rescue; we found her 2.5 years ago living in a graveyard and adopted her. From what we know, she was dumped near the graveyard by her apparent previous owner. She is very attached to our other dog (GSD), but does not get along with other dogs. Behavioral issues: minor nipping (only occasional & what we believe to be in play), crying every time our babies cry, escaping from her kennel/jumping fences, aggression towards other dogs (it seems out of protection of the other dog), and digging in the yard. Very skittish and timid. Positive traits include: very sweet and cuddly, loves being pet and sitting in your lap, responds to basic commands, not a big barker, pretty good on a leash (minimal pulling), generally is good with guests Ellie needs a quiet, child-free home where she can be prioritized. She has had issues from her previous owner (was likely abused) that we do not have the resources to fix.

Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
We adopted him in Ponchatoula. He's just over a year old. He is very energetic! He plays a little rough, and would not be suitable for small children or those that are unstable on their feet. He is sweet and never meets anyone who he doesn't love. He is a remarkable jumper/parkour enthusiast. (3 plus feet upright) Spud is very food motivated and has been trained to do many tricks. (Sit/stay, outside/inside, go potty, upstairs/downstairs, lay down, waits for permission to eat, give kisses, kennel, shake/high five, dance (will jump up to your waist for a little boogie). Spud needs a backyard to get his zoomies out. He requires frequent potty breaks and attention. He will let you know when he wants your undivided attention. Looking to rehome him due to a career change that prohibits us from having a Pitt mix around children.

Story
I'm having to rehome a very special foster pup named Nina Beth, and while it truly breaks my heart to do so, I’m hoping to find her the loving, permanent home she deserves. She rescued from a bad situation. Due to circumstances beyond our control and to no fault of hers, we are needing to rehome her. Nina Beth is a female pit puppy, ~8 months ~40 lbs, black with white, recently spayed, microchipped, UTD on all vaccinations and parasite prevention. She is housebroken and kennel trained. Knows how to sit and can catch treats. She has done well with both our large and small dogs, and also with one of our cats that doesn't show fear. Some honest notes, she is timid around men she does not know yet, she has malformation in her back knee joints but does not slow her down, she snores...LOUD. She will come with a personalized collar, a large kennel, blankets, toys, a bag of Purina Pro Plan Puppy food and whatever is left of her heartworm/flea/tick prevention meds (currently 5 months).
