Story
Milo is one of the best dogs. He is energetic, lovable, and listens very well. His biggest flaw is that he is a 45lb lap dog.I have had him since he was 3 months old, he gets along with other humans, kids, cats, and most dogs. I unfortunately do not think he will be fit with another MALE dog now. He recently was attacked at a park by another male dog and has since shown severe anxiety because of it, with medications not deeming 100% helpful. I have to let my loving boy go because I own two other male dogs that he now shows anxiety and reaction over. He still gets along just fine with the cats, and his doggy sister. He will be the best cuddler, best shoulder to cry on, and the best adventure pal you could ask for. He just needs a loving space without another boy dog.

Got from my friend who got an intact german sherpard who he didnt get along with. He does fine with female dogs and is a grumpy old man with puppies. Great dog except extreme anxiety on nail trims. Growls but doesn't bite. I can't keep him because nobody is home most of the day and he is destructive due to seperation anxiety. Apartment complex said him or move out. So here i am. Here is a great dog as long as he has human company. Any human will do of any age.

Story
Chico is a one-year-old sweetheart with a playful spirit and an even bigger heart. He gets along wonderfully with other dogs and children and has a gentle, affectionate nature. When it comes to cats, he’s still learning not to chase them, but he has shown no aggression and is doing well so far. Chico truly doesn’t realize how big he is—he loves curling up in laps and cuddling whenever he can. Eager to please, Chico is making great progress with potty training and is already crate trained and leash trained. He enjoys playtime, plenty of affection, and staying close to his people, making him an excellent companion for an active yet loving home. Chico loves being part of the action and will happily soak up all the attention you’re willing to give. Located in North Texas, Transport available and fee included

Story
Bio for Pelvis Presley! Male or female- Spayed Female Age-10-11months  Breed- Pitbull mix Weight- 38lbs Impairment-Previous broken pelvis Potty trained- Working on it Crate trained- Is currently crated when foster is not home, does not love it. Good with other dogs- yes, would need a meet and greet Good with kids- yes Commands known- Knows her name, comes when called (most times)  Need fence- Preferred, she does not walk well on a leash. Working on it. Need another dog in house- No, enjoys other dogs. However, is more attached to "her person" Location- Kalamazoo, MI Energy- Medium Good with cats- Wants to play hard with cats. Currently living with VERY dog friendly cats. Does chase to play with them. Would be easier in a house with no cats   Meet Pelvis Presley! She was originally brought into animal control when a good Samaritan found her. Unfortunately she was terrified while running loose and unfortunately was hit by a car. She did have a broken pelvis. Fortunately it has healed with some exercise restriction is now able to work up to normal activity. She'd likely benefit from some joint supplements to help prevent the likely arthritis that may occur after this injury. She's not quite able to stretch that leg out as well as the other, but it does NOT slow her down. She wants to run/jump and play like any other puppy. However, she is not super energetic and would do fine with regular walks. No long runs needed.  She's a sweet "pocket pitty" that loves her person. She's currently being fostered in family with a 2 year old child, 2 female dogs (1 small and one large) and 2 cats. She does well with the child and the dogs. She likes to chase and play with the cats, she has shown no aggression towards them. However, she could easily stress out not super dog friendly cats. She still needs some work on socialization and can be slow to warm up, but she is huge cuddler once she becomes attached. She is currently attached to the mom in the house, but does well with everyone. She would love someone that is home often or even able to take her to work. She will be your shadow around the house. She will bark when she sees or hears people approaching the house, but she is excited/nervous when they enter. She is still working on house breaking, but is only improving. She will also use a pee pad if one is offered.  She is spayed and up to date with her core vaccines. Who doesn't want a fun size pitty as a house companion! Please consider adopting Presley! ##2619644##

Good with kids, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
What a face! Humphrey is a big doofus. When he arrived he weighed 14 lbs. He was living in a crate and being starved to death. But with the right vet care and foster he is now 40 lbs and loving life. He still wants to eat too fast so he uses a special bowl to slow him down. Humphrey is still learning he can go outside to potty and he doesn't have to do his business in his crate. At some point his ears were cut off, probably with scissors, but that doesn't seem to bother him. And it just gives him a special look, along with his squatty muscular body. He needs a strong person to help him keep learning life can be good. He can be reactive with some dogs. No idea about cats but probably should not live with them. He does think he should be a lap dog and loves belly rubs. I am in a foster home so if you are interested in adoptiong me, please fill out an online adoption application at https://colonycats.org/adoption_app.html to expedite the process.  Due to the large number of inquiries we receive, we are unable to respond to emails quickly.  February 11, 2025, 6:40 am
