Story
Magic is an about 5 year old dog (estimated age) found on the street this past fall (2025). He was found unconcious and was brought to a veterinary hospital which is where I adopted him from. He is a very sweet boy who loves to cuddle once he gets to know someone. He likes shorter walks/hikes and running around/sniffing off leash. I am rehoming him because I would like a dog that wants to run with me and he is not into running at a steady pace for long distances. He does take a little bit to warm up to new people but will be so loyal once he knows you. It took him a very short time to warm up to me once he understood I was taking care of him. He has a history of biting one person when they picked him up while he was eating, he had just met this person and otherwise he has not had any issues. I do not think he would be great with small children as he needs people he does not know very well to go slow with him. He does well with other dogs and has gotten used to cats.

Lucy is a soft, sensitive little girl with the sweetest heart. She is 7# and 3 months old. She can be a bit unsure of new things right now, but all she truly wants is to feel safe, loved, and close to her person. Pick her up and hold her like a baby, and she’ll melt right into you—she absolutely thrives on comfort and reassurance. Lucy has a playful puppy side too. She enjoys toys, exploring, and being near her people. She’s still learning the basics (including potty training) and is currently working on puppy pads. With a little patience and love, Lucy is going to blossom into the most loyal, affectionate companion. She’s the kind of dog who will form a deep bond and love her person with her whole heart. Adoption is $350 which includes her spay age-appropriate vaccines, microchip and current monthly prevention.
