Story
Monty is a 5-year-old Red Heeler with a heart full of affection and a protective streak. This smart and energetic boy thrives in an active home where he can channel his energy and intelligence into fun activities and playtime. Monty is a loyal companion who loves his people and enjoys snuggling up for some cuddle time once he's had a chance to burn off his energy. As a breed, Red Heelers are known for their high energy and strong protective instincts, and Monty is no exception. He does well with some dogs outside the home but can be territorial and protective of his space, so he'd be happiest as the only pet in a home. He is not suited for a home with children, as his protective nature may make him uncomfortable around unfamiliar situations or people. Monty needs a confident, experienced owner who understands the breed's instincts and can provide him with structure, mental stimulation, and lots of exercise. He can be a bit cautious around new people, especially in his home, but once he bonds with you, he'll be your loyal protector and best friend. His intelligence makes him highly trainable, and he's always eager to please. If you're looking for a smart, affectionate, and protective companion who will reward your patience and dedication with loyalty and love, Monty might be the perfect match for you.

Story
Allister is the sweetest boy. He is about 4 years old and I adopted him at around 6 months old after he was found in a flooded RV park with his sibling. He was a foster first, but after seeing his sweet personality, I knew I had to adopt him. He loves to cuddle. A lot. He also ‘gives hugs’ but I am trying to not have him do that anymore. I did a DNA test a couple years ago and he is 60% Australian cattle dog. He was my first dog as an adult and I wish I had know more about his breed and their need for a high level of exercise and mental stimulation. I walk him daily and it is his favorite part of the day, but I know he wants more. He is very athletic and I would bet he would make a great farm dog, with some training. He has always been very healthy, no issues there. He can be resource aggressive with other dogs and weird about alpha dogs but I truly think with a dedicated family and someone who is familiar with high energy breeds- these issues could be so much better.

Story
She is very sweet dog but has problems with chasing and mouthing other dogs and cats. She does it playfully but I have another dog that gets aggressive when she does it. She needs a home where she is the only pet or with another young energetic dog who likes to run as well. She loves fetching a ball and car rides and is great with my daughter. I have a cat here with her Dolly does follow the cat around a lot but the cat swats her. I do have another dog that Dolly does get along with so it will depend on both dogs which is why I didn't put she is good with dogs or cats it would depend on them as well. I have an appointment to get her spayed on March 29th that I will take her to and pay for if someone adopting her is ok with it. She is completely house trained and is a good dog when she is home alone. I think she is purebred but don't have paperwork for that. Have copies of her vet records.

Story
Buddy was found as a stray with scars throughout his body they believe he was used as a fighting dog. He is the sweetest boy with energy like a puppy. He is food protective around other animals. He is picky with other dogs some he likes and some he doesn’t. He does better with female dogs compared to other males. He takes some time getting used to cats and still needs to be separated when feeding or at-least supervised. He loves all types of toys and does not have any destructive behavior. He does not like motorcycles and does have some anxiety with storms and fireworks. He takes time getting used to young kids because he only just recently with me been around young kids. He has had a hard life before I got him he was abused so some people make him scared. He loves adventures and sight seeing even if it’s a campfire or a simple walk in the park. He does have some food allergies. He just needs a loving home where he can go on walks or runs and loves to do tasks.

Story
We found Blue while walking in a local park about two years ago. She was very skinny and had no microchip but was incredibly sweet. She quickly became a part of our family and loves to cuddle with anyone. About a year ago, another dog we named Hank, wondered up to our house in bad shape. She helped him to heal and they quickly became best friends and are inseparable now. We would love to find a home for the two of them as they play very well together and love to be active. They would do great in an active household that can provide exercise and mental stimulation. Blue needs an experienced owner as she is incredibly smart and athletic. She can jump a 5 foot fence and loves to run. She will also countersurf if given the chance. Check out my bestie, Hank! https://www.adoptapet.com/pet/43833351-palatka-florida-hound-unknown-type-mix

Story
Meet Mama! Mama is approximately 5 years old and is one of the sweetest dogs I have ever met. I rescued mama about a year ago from a private owner who unfortunately did not disclose that Mama is not safe to be around kids. Unfortunately due to having children in my household I am unable to provide her a safe place to land. I’m looking for a home with no children or male dogs. Mama seems to get along better with female dogs and she loves cats. Mama is great on a leash , she’s potty trained, understands basic commands, and has good house obedience. Mama does not like small children in her space at all. Mama enjoys playing outside, pup cups, and a good belly rub. She’s the perfect dog if you do not have kids. Mama deserves a soft place to land and I’m hoping to find it for her.
