Story
We rescued Nicky from the Humane society a few months ago for our kids and they love her. Unfortunately, now that she’s 8 months old, she has started to shed, and their noses haven’t stopped (allergic). Nicky is 42lbs. and full of energy and would love a yard to run in. She takes a while to warm up to people and other animals (not sure why). If she’s extremely excited she might pee when she greets you. She is house trained though and will jingle bells at the door to go out. She house trained quickly, and will sit (voice or hand signal) while getting her leash on or off, or while we fill her food bowl. She does jump, and we’re working on trying to keep her from doing so, as our kids are small. This is why I said she might not be good with kids. That said, she plays with our oldest and their older cousins without issue. Just not great for little kids. She will sleep in a kennel or anywhere comfortable, and really loves attention. I’m happy to answer questions.

Story
We are looking for a loving and caring family to adopt my son's dog. His job is moving him out of the area. She is a Staffordshire Terrier and was said to be a pure bread. Piper was named from the aircraft manufacturer Piper was a year old on April 19. Piper gets along with other dogs and children of all ages. She is a very loving and mellow dog. She weighs around 50 pounds. She is up to date on her shots. Our 9 year old granddaughter loves taking her for walks. Piper needs more attention than we can give her. She loves to cuddle. She is not a barker.

Beautiful house trained female needs new home. I will be moving up north and can no longer afford keeping her ( i was working with a trainer) she is a huge love potato and can cuddle for hours. She is also ready for hikes runs and any outdoor activity when ever you are. I am looking for someone that is only looking for a one dog home. She became food aggressive over time and now i just wouldnt trust her in a multi dog home. I hope who ever is reading and interested to please reach out and schedule a play date. I know she will make your life so happy and full of love.

Story
Merle is so relaxed and mellow. He is such a sweet boy who really just wants a person he can trust and a place to call home. Mellow and chill are the ultimate words to describe him. I rescued Merle from the euthanasia list at an LA Shelter on 4/26/23. When I saw his listing I could feel something in my soul tell me I had to save him. I unfortunately have a senior dog who is not great with other dogs, and caretake for my mom with dementia so I knew I could not keep him even though I am already in love. But still my soul knew he needed to be rescued, I could tell he was going to bring extraordinary love into the family who adopts him. He does great on leash. He does great in public &at restaurants. He’s fine with loud noises. Kids have run right by him and he didn’t mind. He likes to nap. And he just loves to be by your side. He really just wants to be loved by a human. He has been able to stay the weekend with friends, but cannot stay beyond Tuesday due to rental rules :(
