Story
We believe Rihanna is a Decker/giant rat terrier which is a hunting breed. She is super friendly and loves meeting new people. She is good around both young and older children. Most of the time she is a couch potato, but she loves going on walks and will play fetch all day. She is usually quiet, but will bark at cats and squirrels. She also communicates well with her people and is very vocal with her cute “barooo”.

Story
Juice was a rescue from last year off the streets. Juice is a very sweet boy I have grown to love him but if I keep him I can’t rescue other animals that are in need of extra love. I’m hoping I can find him a loving home with someone that will love him like we do. He deserves the love from another family juice is very chill n loves sleeping on the couch he is also crate trained. I’m hoping I can find him the loving home he needs.

Story
I found her a couple of months ago ago. My renters don’t have a fenced yard so shes always tied i feel bad that she doesn’t get time to just run free. She did excape once and the city made me chip her with my information and get her a rabies vaccine. She is nice either way cats (i have 3) and with children (10year old) When I found her I tried looking for her owners but everone online said she had been out in the streets for weeks. So i took her in to find a forever home for her with no luck. My house owners let me foster for a while but did ask us to not keep her since she was not part of the contract. Shes nice and potty trained trained to hold it for 7 hours (thats our work time) She likes to play with regular plush toys (not dog toys ) Will eat dog and cat food. Will listen when you tell her to stop or move. Doesn’t sleep with us she likes to sleep in her own cushion.
