Story

Meet Rocky! He's a 3 year old neutered brindle pit bull mix possibly Labrador and mastiff. Approx 80 lbs. He's friendly listens good and is good with kids, strangers, and ither dogs. I adopted him from a shelter about a year ago and refuse to take him back to one. He's super chill low energy but still loves to go on his walks and just being with his people and loved on. He aims to please his people. Loves squeaker toys and chew bones. He absolutely loves going on car rides and is one of the sweetest dog you'll ever meet. I'm in a tough personal living situation change causing me to make this dreadful decision. So Rocky would be forever grateful. Adoption fee is only to ensure he ends up in a good home with the right people. Thanks!

Story

Gypsy is 5 years old. She is a very loving dog, likes to play fetch, and carries around a toy in her mouth when shes happy. She is amazing with kids! She tolerates cats, and likes to chase them a little. She has never attempted to hurt one. Three years ago she was diagnosed with a epilepsy and is on twice daily medication. She takes the medicine very easily wrapped in a treat. She also suffers from anxiety when we are not home, which is the main reason we need to re-home her. It is unfair that she has to be alone most of the day when we are at work. She deserves a companion who will be with her majority of the time, take her on walks, and maybe even some adventures. Gypsy deserves a different forever home!
