Story
Bruno was adopted from the Nevada Humane Society (NVH) in mid-November 2023. He is estimated at 3.5 years old and ~50lbs. Behavior: People: Bruno has been friendly towards every person he has met. He loves butt scratches and cuddling. Dogs: Bruno's first interaction with the other dog in the household, Jack, was positive and they enjoyed playing but NVH only allowed for an on-leash interaction. The issue stems from Bruno's lack of awareness towards Jack's warnings to back off. Bruno doesn't understand Jack need for personal space. The dogs have gone through training to try and reduce Jack's fear. Unfortunately, Jack's fear has persisted. I think Bruno would do best in a household without a dog or with a dog who has an easygoing temperament. Bruno is treat motivated and knows the commands: Sit, Lay down, Shake, Kennel, Stay, Relax He walks well on a leash. He is leash reactive towards dogs (we are training and progressing with this).

Story
We have had Samson since he was 7 weeks old. This is going to be very hard letting him go to a new place to live. He loves walks, swimming, play catch, he loves attention. He can be food aggressive but not usually. He is unsure of small kids so if you have them please know that you might not want to adopted Samson. Samson usually is not the dog to start a fight, will defend himself. Samson is very very strong and if he knows that you aren't strong he will pull you around when he is on the leash. He needs to be with someone who is VERY active and goes on adventures that can take Samson with them. I don't recommend that you have any other pets especially male dogs or small dogs. He doesn't like them. He is very loving and likes treats and bones but no rawhide because he will choke. I am going to be very very picky about where Samson goes. You need to be committed to taking care of him and not neglect him or his needs. He is a very needy dog and he loves being spoiled.

Good with kids, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Kinzley is a high energy bundle of love with a huge personality. If you want the dog that is ALWAYS excited to see you, she's the one. I'm rehoming her because she deserves more attention than I can give her, as my job scope and situation in life have changed since I got her as a puppy. She will be 5yrs in October and According to Embark DNA, she is 60% American Bully and 40% American Pit Bull Terrier, though she has more of the physical characteristics of the Pit Bull Terrier. Her beautiful coloring is Blue Fawn Brindle with a white chest and paws. She is well behaved/trained and currently has the run of the house and backyard. Her personality is amazing and she is very verbal (in a good way), she will be right in the shower with you if invited. She has been socialized around people since she was a puppy and has yet to meet a person she didn't love. Would love to describe her in more detail but this summary doesn't provide enough room. Please contact and I can give more details.
