Story
I got Devo from a co-worker who was about to take him to the dog pound. We already have another dog who doesn’t get along well with new dogs, but we thought we’d try it out to keep Devo out of the shelter. Unfortunately it seems like it won’t be working out and we’d like to find him a good home rather than ending up in a shelter again. He’s a decently well-behaved dog, but he does have spurts of energy where he really needs to go outside and play.

Story
We have come to an emergency situation at home!After having adopted a young, energetic dog, Gibbs, the health of our senior dog took a turn for the worse. Gibbs, always seeking an opportunity to play, overwhelmed our senior, causing him to tear his ACL. Now, unfortunately, we are forced to separate the dogs, making the overall living situation much more stressful than anticipated.Gibbs is young, enthusiastic, physically strong, and has a lot of energy. He has difficulty settling himself and tolerating being ignored. He is house trained and sleeps in a crate at night.Gibbs needs the kind of stimulation, attention, and training that most young dogs require. He is NOT aggressive, and has no special needs, he simply needs a family that can fully support (and enjoy!) his growth and development as he transitions from mischievous puppy to well behaved young dog.We truly want Gibbs to go to a loving home and not have to ever spend another night in a shelter! Help!
