Story

Nala is the biggest sweatheart and loves people with her whole heart. She loves to play, run, walk and cuddle. Unfortunately she no longer gets along with my other dog. She has gotten into it and has bit her on two separate occasions. I also don’t have the space to separate them and both be happy. She would be an amazing dog in an only pet household. If I could keep her I would because she really is the biggest lover and goofball.

Story

Alaska was rescued in 2021, after found wandering in the desert. She’s been a very good dog, is kind, gentle, doesn’t bark, and is good with other dogs and kids. She’s house trained and crate trained. I sustained a shoulder injury from a car accident and haven’t been able to walk her. Alaska pulls on a leash. I’ve tried multiple tools and training tips, but have never been able to 100% resolve this. She’s been around kids the whole time she’s been with us. We have a four year old who has never warmed up to dogs and he doesn’t like her in his space. We moved last Fall and since the move I can see she’s become anxious, sad, and her life simply isn’t what we would want. Alaska loves to play and can be really silly and sweet. We both have very demanding jobs and find ourselves exhausted. The move has been hard and we want better for this sweet baby. She’s truly a wonderful dog. Probably the best I’ve ever had. She is probably around 6 now.

Story

Kane is a very shy and sweet boy. He will need an adopter that is familiar with the breed and knows how to help him gain confidence. He is not a candidate for an adopter that hasn't had dogs in the past or any adopters with small children. He is crate and house trained. He is dog selective and would do best in a home with no other dogs. Kane is very smart and rings a bell on the door when he has to go outside to potty! He loves to nap on your lap and would make a great work from home buddy. He was abused when he was a little puppy and has an unusual bark. He's been through a lot and needs an adopter that will be patient while he adjusts to his new home. Kane's birthday is 10/27/2021, he weighs 48 lbs. Kane is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, on heart worm prevention and microchipped. The first step in the adoption process is to fill out an application.

Meet Dylan-At just 7 months old, Dylan is all legs, all heart, and all puppy! This lanky boy is still growing into his extra-long legs, which occasionally have a mind of their own—don`t be surprised if he trips over them during a zoomie session. It just adds to his charm!Dylan is a sweet, affectionate pup who loves to cuddle after he`s gotten his puppy energy out. He`s learning all about the world and is already walking very nicely on a leash. He truly is a very good boy who wants to make his people happy. Like many puppies, Dylan is still figuring things out. Toys are a bit of a mystery to him, and he`s not quite sure what to do with them yet. A confident, well-balanced canine companion would be a wonderful role model to help teach him the ropes and build his confidence.When it comes to play, Dylan enjoys dogs that match his energetic, rough-and-rowdy style, especially those around his size. Because of his enthusiastic puppy nature, he`ll do best in a home without cats or young children.If you`re looking for a goofy, loving best friend who will keep you smiling with his puppy antics and melt into your lap for cuddles at the end of the day, Dylan might just be your perfect match. With a little guidance, plenty of love, and a canine buddy to show him the way, this handsome long-legged boy is sure to grow into an incredible companion. If you are looking for the sweetest puppy with a big heart we’d love to talk with you about Dylan.
