Story
Mula is a beautiful mellow dog that like to walk or run. She’s very sweet and happy to see you once she’s gain your trust. She would wait at door when I get home and at the stairs when I come down each morning. I love the dog, but she shed and I didn’t know she has this when I got her. My wife don’t do well with this condition with her skin.

Story
Diesel is a great dog and I wish that we could keep him. He’s a loyal companion who loves to be with his family. We have enjoyed many trips with Diesel and he has protected us from harm in the past. He’s an amazing guard dog and is very loving to the people that he cares about. We have unfortunately gotten too busy to properly care for him. Diesel needs to be walked twice a day to be happy. He’s not happy to stay in a back yard. He has been suffering from an itchy back side which we haven’t been able to figure out. He does not have fleas. Before his skin problem he was very good with children. With his backside being irritated, he does bark at them when they get too close to his backside but he has never hurt any one. Diesel is unpredictable with other dogs and has several food allergies. I will provide an allergy list to the new owner. Diesel is a fantastic dog for people who have the time to spend with him and for people with older children. We are very sad to see him go.

Story
Due to new property ownership I cannot keep my dog. Revna (means Raven in old Norse Scandinavian) is a 3 year old Akita. She is not spayed, but current on vaccinations. She has a wonderful temperament, and I got her from a family with children. We got Revna in Oct. 2025. She is house trained, loves to take walks, and quiet for a dog her size. Revna hardly barks, only if she hears a knock at the door. She likes treats and chew toys. She is very mild mannered, but playful, and content. Revna has not been around other dogs so I don't know how she would react with other dogs, but she does not like cats. She likes chilling in the back yard and will let you know when she wants to go out to "sun bathe." I am very torn to have to let her go, but cannot move at this time.

Story
Hi… I’m Duri 🤍 Before I met kind people, I spent a long time on my own… without care, without warmth. I just endured each day the best I could. But things have changed now. I’ve been given a chance to start over— and I’m waiting for a family to share that new beginning with. Maybe… that could be you. People say I look strong and handsome. My thick fur, my clear eyes… sometimes I remind them of a brown husky. But what I really want you to see isn’t just how I look— It’s who I am. I like people. I really do. I’ll come up to you first, gently, hoping to connect. I enjoy being close, sharing quiet moments, feeling like I belong. I also get along well with other dogs. Being around friends feels natural to me, and I’m comfortable sharing space and energy with them. Inside me, I carry something special— the calm loyalty of an Akita, and the intelligence and quick learning of a Jindo. That means when I bond with you… it won’t be shallow. It will be deep. Steady. Unbreakable. But I’m still learning. Living in a home is new to me. Things like potty training, daily routines, and how to behave indoors—these are things you’ll need to teach me, step by step. Because I’m a strong and active dog, I’ll also need guidance on walks and basic manners. I want to do well—I just need someone to show me how. In the beginning, I might seem a little unsure. A new place, a new life… it can feel overwhelming. But if you stay patient, consistent, and kind with me, I will find my balance. I’m not a difficult dog— but I am a dog who needs understanding. Someone who won’t just “have” me, but will truly live with me. Teach me. Connect with me. If you can do that… I promise you something rare. A bond built on trust. A loyalty that doesn’t fade. A companion who stands by you, no matter what. I’ve already come so far from where I started. Now I just need a place to finally belong. No more loneliness. Just warmth… and you. Will you be my forever family? 🤍
