Story
Roxy was surrendered to me by a couple that was unable to give her the attention she needed. Her previous owners mostly kept her in a crate throughout the day but since living with me she free roams around the house, was walked 3 times a day living in an apartment and had never had an issue or accident while I was at work. Recently due to health issues I've moved and Roxy is able to be off leash in an unfenced property and comes back once she sees me come inside. She is eager to please and loves to be close to her people. Ideally, Roxy would fit best in a home with no other pets and a yard she can run around in. We have another dog she gets along with really well and she is always eager to meet other dogs, but she has issues with boundaries and giving them space. She LOVES balls, toys, tuggatoys but she has never torn anything up in the house. Despite her size, Roxy thinks she's a lap dog, she loves to cuddle and is always ready for some TV time. We really want the best for her.

Story
Meet Woody! Woody is 6 months old and sitting around 52 lbs! He is a complete love bug and would love nothing more to find a home that is a good fit for him!He’s housetrained, crate trained (best when it’s covered), sleeps in crate overnight for 9 hours, rides great in the car, has learned basic obedience (sit, down, stay, touch) and really enjoys training. He still chews things a puppy might (prefers wooden furniture and rugs…also huge fan of toilet paper rolls) but is easily redirected to appropriate toys. He loves all people and is generally friendly toward people and dogs. He tends toward somewhat rude dog play (depending on his playmate), antagonizing until he gets the other dog to engage with him. Would recommend he be matched with a dog of similar size as him if there’s other dogs.  He’s responsive, easy to take with you places, generally easy going personality, and will make you laugh every day. Interested in Woody? Reach out and let us know! ##2676488##

Story
Meet Buddy! This kiddo has a bit of an unknown past, but that is all behind him now! He is a bit underweight, but we are working on that and he is loving the extra TLC in his foster home. He has done great with people, dogs and cats and would truly be a great addition to any home. He is a lenky boy right now with long legs and adorable ears, so we are using our best guess on breed! Please reach out if you are interested in this pup! ##2835816##
