Story
We have had browser since he was 7 weeks old. We adopted him from a breeder. He turned 3 on November 17th. He is so sweet and kind to all of us in the home. He’s never been around other animals to know if he is good with them or not. He also hasn’t been around strangers so that’s something that will need worked on. He is kennel trained and can sit/lay down and shake.

Story
Barbie is a very sweet girl that our family adopted from an adoption facility 3 months ago. We were told she was found on the street and she was 1 year old, & fresh off of a litter of puppies. We have so enjoyed our time with Barbie, but we worry that we might not be the best fit for her. We have an older dog that she very much wants to play with but he isn’t interested and her energy is starting to stress him & we’re noticing that he’s starting to withdrawal. We have 5 kiddos and Barbie is very sweet w/ them but she gets very ramped up with their high energy and has a hard time calming down. We’ve had a few pottying in the house issues with her as well. I chalk this up to us having busy lives and we’re always running from one place to another. So maybe she needs a family that can give her more one on one attention and training. It’s so hard for us to part w/ her as well really see what a gem she is, but we worry that we’re not giving her the best chance with our busy lives

Story
Meet Athena!Athena is a stunning 5-year-old Pit Bull mix with a gorgeous brindle and white coat and a heart ready to bond with her forever family. She’s spent some time at the shelter, but even short escapes for a walk or hike show her true personality—calm, affectionate, and wonderfully responsive once she gets a little energy out. Athena is dog selective, sometimes getting along with other dogs, so she’ll do best with careful introductions, but she thrives when she has the attention and patience of her people. Walks reset her stress level, cuddles are welcomed, and with the right home, she’s sure to settle in beautifully. Smart, loving, and ready for adventure or quiet moments alike, Athena is searching for a family to call her own and shower with love.
