Story
Sadie belonged to my brother. She was a puppy when he got her, less than 12 weeks old. My brother died unexpectedly a week after getting her. Me and my family took her home and has had her for a year. She is a sweet dog, but she is not great with our young kids. She tends to herd them. Also, my wife developed a serious allergy to her because of her long hair. She will come with two crates and papers. She is full bred miniature Australian shepherd.

Story
Wolfie is a special needs doggo with lots of personality! He has been diagnosed with Hydrocephaly and Cerebellar Hypoplasia. These things mean that he has many differences in his brain that then affect his behavior and ability to process stimuli. He is only on one type of medication that is not particularly expensive but he must have it at prescribed intervals to help him cope with his environment and not become agitated. He is playful, affectionate, and intelligent and these traits show when he is managed well. He is not and never will be fully housebroken but a stay at home parent can help him be his best at this. He does well with other dogs when introduced properly and he will still need downtime from them. We do not know how he is with cats. He is not a good candidate to live with children because of his excitable nature- he gets very mouthy when agitated. If you think you might be a good caretaker for Wolfie please give us a call to inquire about him!October 5, 2023, 12:21 am

Story
Comet is the sweetest boy. Extremely smart, well mannered, and loves like you wouldn’t believe. He will be 8 December 21st. We’ve had him since eight weeks old. It’s an extremely difficult decision but we are military and this upcoming move won’t allow us to keep him. Looking for a good, loving home.
