Story

Harry and Sally came together into our rescue. Harry is about one year old, weighs 20 lbs, is heartworm negative and has had the proheart shot. Both these dogs have not been as socialized with humans as they need to be. They have both been with me a little over a week. They will run up to me and wag their tails but are less likely to want to be picked up. Both are using my doggie door and playing well with other dogs. They will need a patient person who allows time for the dogs to acclimate and want to be affectionate. We hope to keep these dogs together, their adoption fees are $200 each.
