Nala came to us in August 2025 severely malnourished. She had been overly kenneled in an apartment for the first year or more of her life. She wasn't getting proper exercise, nutrition or care. We had her sister already and wanted to try and give Nala a better life. She wasn't getting proper thriving and happy and become a healthy weight and joined in with our other animals very well until she snapped one day when our chickens got loose. Our dogs have been trained to protect the birds and Nala was doing well until she suddenly attacked and then continued to terrorize one of our birds and almost killed him. This behavior has not been able to be curbed since then and she has now taken to finding ways into the chicken yard and has now in the last week killed a handful of chickens. So we can't keep her. If it weren't for this issue she wouldn't be going no where. I'm truly sad to see her go. She will make someone a wonderful pet as long as they don't have chickens.

This is Frodo. He is an almost 4 year old Australian Shepherd mix. He has quite a bit of energy but loves going to dog parks to run or chase a ball (still working on the bringing back part. lol) My wife and I recently had a baby who is almost two and since then he hasn’t been very nice to him. We do have another dog that he gets along with but she’s a female so maybe he’ll be good with dogs of his choosing or maybe only females. He is very sweet to his owners and older kids. He does need work in socializing. He’s fine when on a leash in public but still will occasionally growl at passersby. If he’s comfortable with you he’s also a very cuddly dog. All in all he is a good boy, he’s just not very fond of the baby and needs a little work in public which is why we need to rehome him.

Introducing Zeke, a truly remarkable pup whose heartwarming spirit and playful energy are ready to light up a new home. Zeke is a handsome, resilient boy who, through no fault of his own, found himself searching for a new home. He's more than ready to embark on his next chapter, seeking a loving, forever family to call his own. Zeke is a bundle of joyful energy, known for his silliness and ability to bring a smile to anyone's face. While he may start off shy, it doesn't take long for his true personality to shine through. He quickly becomes an enthusiastic playmate who thrives on the company of other dogs and will gleefully encourage them to play. Zeke is a smart and well-mannered companion. He is potty-trained and comfortable in his crate. He also knows basic commands like "sit" and "go to your room," and his eagerness to please makes him a joy to train further. While he’s working on managing his excitement (which sometimes results in enthusiastic leaps!), his good intentions are always clear. Walks are a highlight of his day, offering him a chance to explore and burn off some of that youthful energy. His barks will let you know precisely when he needs to go outside or when he hears you approaching the door. If you’re seeking an active, affectionate, and charming dog who promises boundless love and entertainment, Zeke could be the perfect addition to your home.
