Story
Chewie is approximately 18 months old, hypo-allergenic, LOVES to walk. Chewie is an obedient, loving, companion dog. He's smart and desires to please, and is very patient with dogs his own size. We have another dog who is 8 years old that has medical issues. Chewie needs supervision/training for interactions with larger dogs. He gave chase to our outdoor cats when he first arrived, but now he just sniffs them and walks past. He has had some exposure to 2 year old, 9 year old, and 14 year old boys with no problems. It is with great sadness, I feel I need to re-home Chewie due to a death in the family, and our older dog's medical issues are requiring substantial care (though stable). Chewie needs continued training for separation anxiety, but a bark collar and Prozac have given him much relief. Chewie is a sweet friend who is sure to melt your heart as he snuggles you!

Story
Hey there, folks! Oreo here, ready to give you the lowdown on why I'm the ultimate canine companion you've been searching for. First things first, I'm a fun-loving, affectionate dude. Let's talk fun! I live for those moments when I can dash around the yard, feeling the wind in my fur. And let me tell you, I've got some serious potential when it comes to agility – I'm nimble, quick, and always up for a challenge. Bring on the obstacles, I'll show 'em who's boss! However, I should go to a home with a fenced yard.  Now, onto the cozy stuff. Picture this: me, curled up on the couch, surrounded by soft blankets, and snuggled up next to you. Sounds dreamy, right? Well, that's just a typical evening for us if you decide to bring me into your home. Here's where I really shine – security detail. Forget about fancy alarm systems, because with me around, you've got the best security in town. I've got a keen eye and sharp ears, and I'll make sure to alert you if anyone even dares to step foot near our turf. No shared walls needed for this top-notch security system! And hey, let's not forget about my furry friends. I'm a social butterfly when it comes to other dogs – friendly, playful, and always up for a good time. So, if you've got canine companions at home, I'll fit right in like a missing puzzle piece. So, what do you say? Ready to invite a fun-loving, cuddle-ready, and ultra-secure pup like me into your life? I promise, once you meet me, you'll wonder how you ever lived without me. ##1946766##

Story
Hi, my name is Bella!  The first thing you should know is that I will follow MY human everywhere. If sit down, I will sit right beside you and cuddle any chance I get. Oh, and I like to help keep the house clean- I'm told this is one of my best features. For example, if we’re outside and the ground is wet when we come inside, I will wait for you to dry off my paws before I go walking through the house. I also spend the nights in my kennel and not complain. In the mornings sometimes you’ll hear me like a tiny alarm clock waking you up, but I’m not very loud. I also know that the first thing we do is go outside. But this is where I have a little bit of trouble because, although I know to use potty pads in the house if I have to go, I don't aways remind my foster mom to take me outside... except in the mornings! My foster mom does this really weird crazy dance outside when I actually do go potty and it makes me laugh. I love being outside when the weather is nice, especially when it means going for walks with my human. I really just want to be with you and when I'm out in the yard without structure, I get a little too caught up with all the things around me. My foster mom says I bark at the wind. Together, we are working on that and I am trying really hard to bark less. If we go for a walk, though, I’m much more focused and I enjoy seeing all the things there is to see, plus it's great bonding time!  This is Bella‘s Foster mom and I would recommend that Bella be the single dog in a household. She is currently fostered with my resident dog and she shows no interest in socializing. Bella will play by herself with her own toys, but does not engage with my dog at all and tells her to go away if she tries to come around to play. She also prefers a quieter household with no children. It does seem that some sudden movements still spook her which does cause her to snap at you a little bit. The potty training has been coming along a little slow, but she is progressing very well. She was obviously trained in her previous life to use potty pads so I think going outside is just a new experience. She does great in her kennel and sleeps through the night or if you prefer, she is a great bed partner as well. All in all, it has been really fun having Bella here. She has the softest fur and most beautiful big brown eyes and just wants to be with you any chance she gets. When she gets that burst of energy and she wants to play, she will grab her toy and just run through the house like a little mad woman and you can’t stop laughing. She truly is a little spitfire ##2008779##
