Story
Freyja is a rescue that was from an abused home originally and am unsure about her true breed, since she came with nothing. She is about 6 years old and is white with a tint of brown, her fur is coarse and wiry. She is a happy go lucky dog that needs someone that is able to spend time with her. She is house trained, leash trained, has good recall and is also create trained. She is nervous on car rides, but she will just pant, she doesn't freak out. She is a submissive dog that is fine with other dogs, though she does get scared of dogs that are too much in her face or are overly dominate. She would be great in a place with dogs that are either older or low energy. She is great with cats and children, though the youngest child she has been exposed to was around six years old.She can be left out and won't destroy anything, she does like chew bones. She loves walks and hiking and is fine in rain or snow. She does get nervous around new people, but she warms up quickly to them.

Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Winston is a great dog but having a tough time with the new baby. The house is busy, there is another dog with whom he gets along with, another child, and we have frequent company so perhaps he is feeling overwhelmed. He seems to be becoming more food reactive and he acts defensively around it and we have concerns with the baby. This is a very hard decision and we would need for him to go to a good home. Adoption fee can be discussed we just didn't want to list "free" as this may attract the wrong type of people. Thank you

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained,
Story
Delo is a loyal and loving one-year-old dog, born on May 27, 2023. He originally came from a litter of puppies raised in our home. We sold him to a friend, but due to unforeseen circumstances, they could no longer care for him, and he was at risk of being sent to a shelter. We quickly intervened and brought him back to ensure his safety. We would love to keep Delo ourselves, but our apartment building has a strict two-dog limit, and we are already at capacity. We’re looking for a loving and safe home where Delo can thrive. He would do best with someone who can give him the attention and care he deserves. Delo is affectionate, loyal, and full of energy. He’s the kind of dog that will be your devoted companion and bring joy to your life. If you’re ready to welcome this special pup into your home, he’ll be ready to give you unconditional love in return.
