Story
Tyberius will be 6 years old in May, we got him shortly after getting married. He is extremely energetic and requires a lot of attention. He is very clingy and sometimes can also be needy. He likes to play rough. I have not had an issue with him being aggressive towards kids but, he does play too rough to be around smaller children. I am also unsure how he will behave with other animals. I have another dog that will be 8 years old in August that he is good with for the most part. When we have tried to introduce him to other animals he became aggressive like, not sure if it was because of the way that we did it or not. He was also run over by a car almost 3 years ago, he thankfully just rolled underneath and got scraps and cuts and the car tires didn’t actually run him over. He deals with dandruff and itchy skin as well. We can’t keep him because of continued housing issues with his breed and cost of care is too much. We are praying for a great family that can give him what he needs!

Story
Loki may be missing an arm due to a difficult past with an owner who didn’t provide the care he needed, but that doesn’t stop him. He’s a spirited, loving dog who keeps up with the others and shows that nothing can hold him back from living life to the fullest Loki is a fun-loving, energetic dog with a big heart and an even bigger curiosity. He absolutely adores people and sees every open door as a new adventure waiting to happen. He’s always eager to explore, play, and share his love. I’m looking for someone who has the time, space, and energy to give Loki the active and affectionate life he deserves.

Louisville, KY
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained,
Story
I am rehoming Nova because unfortunately she has had one too many incidents of aggression that has put a strain on me and my mother. She is absolutely a sweetheart she just has moments and is supremely scarred deeply it seems to me. We received Nova around August 2024 from one of my mothers associates due to their need for her to be watched over while they figured out their living situation briefly, over time we learned they would not be able to take her back so we have watched over her. There have been incidents with Nova of aggression towards people, other animals, and owners, which we cannot tolerate due to my mothers respite for her social work, with new people coming and going that have to be taken care of to a sense we cannot have any incidents with innocent people or pets. She lives with 2 cats and actually has a pleasant relationship with one of them however recently she lunged at both of them in the same day at separate times, under no provocation. She is very sweet though,

Story
Phoenix is a sweet, gentle, and loving 4-year-old dog. She does not bite and has a great temperament. She has a healthy amount of energy but also loves relaxing, making her an easy dog to live with. She is fully potty trained, can go poop outside on command, and can stay home alone for up to 8 hours without accidents. She loves toys, especially tug-of-war, and can entertain herself. When you’re relaxing, she’s a couch potato. When you’re active, she’s happy to be up with you. Phoenix loves sleeping in bed under the covers and being close to her people. She would make a wonderful companion in a loving home.
