Story
Two months ago, Buddy’s life was uncertain when he was found abandoned. Thankfully, a wonderful Good Samaritan stepped up to save him, and he is currently thriving in a loving foster home. Now, Buddy is ready for the ultimate next step: a forever family to give him the beautiful life he truly deserves. Buddy is a gentle giant with a truly kind soul. He is a loyal, sweet boy who just needs a little time and patience to show you his massive heart. He is wonderful with young children! He already knows "Sit" and "Shake," and he’s currently working hard on mastering "Stay." He takes just a little bit of time to warm up to new faces, but once he knows you’re safe, he is all love. Buddy’s Ideal Home:Because of his livestock guardian and retriever roots, Buddy has a natural curiosity and a love for the outdoors. His perfect match includes: A Secure Yard: A nice, spacious backyard to play. He loves long walks.

Story
Odo is a truly awesome dog. He is good with kids, non-reactive to dogs, and responds really well to consistent boundaries. He really wants to please and if you enforce expectations consistently, he's really good with that. He doesn't chew things up and doesn't need a lot of exercise. He is really good with my grandkids, ages 3 and 6. He's healthy and approximately six years old. He has overcome a lot. When we first got him he had a tremendous amount of anxiety. He came from a dog hoarding situation. He has guarding behaviors and bit someone when he thought the person was a threat. We sent him boot camp for that and he's been doing really well since he came back but needs a strong and experienced owner. He would do very well with another dog that is energetic and playful. He hasn't been around cats that much but when he is, he seems to just be curious. He has not exhibited much of a prey drive. He's most comfortable with women initially but warms up to men.

Story
It’s with a sad heart that I mush rehome my Phoenix 1 year and 7 months. He’s a good boy, loves the outdoors and loves people when introduced correctly. He was the pup that was to replace my dog that passed 3 years ago. Unfortunately he has become too much for an older dog that we had rescued May of last year. He is young enough to still be trained. He loves attention and will show concern for people he trusts. Example I was going into a river when camping and he did his best to get me back on land. With my both my parents also ill as well trying to keep the two dogs separated has stressed the older dog to the point that he refuses to eat when Pheonix is near. My only other option is the pound.
