Story
Dubby is a special dog with a lot of love to give. He is friendly, affectionate, loyal, gentle, playful, smart, funny, and athletic - to name a few of his shining characteristics! He is a very loving dog who adores kisses and giving kisses. Dubby would be the perfect fit for a family with older children (13+), or just adults living in the home. Dubby loves to play with other dogs, and an old injury is not holding him back in any way. If you believe you could be the right family for this sweet boy, please complete an application at https://www.cognitoforms.com/SaveOneSoul/SaveOneSoulAdoptionApplication , so that you can meet him. He can't wait to meet you and shower you with kisses!

Story
This is our sweet boy Luther! He needs a home without any other animals, he is 3 years old born October of 2020, he loves to play frisbee but can be your couch potato all day to he also will join you on your water adventure if you want, but usually isn’t interested in any other toys, he’s a very easy keeper and is crate trained but can be left out to roam while your gone. Givin a min of introduction, he warms up to new people fairly quickly and will love them from then on out, he has been around a 4 year old his whole life and plays very well with him and has with any kids he’s met he’s just a big wiggly boy so sometimes he forgets his size ❤️ he’s the perfect partner for anyone who will give him lovins. His recall is good, he knows sit, stay and cage or bed and listens well to them, is eager to learn whatever you would like to teach him. We have other animals in the home and unfortunately they no longer get along and have chosen sweet boy needs more than we can give.

Story
We adopted Ms. Daisy after she was found on the side of the road as a pup around 4 months old. We brought her into our home and she became one of the sweetest pups we have ever owned. She has traveled with me two and from work everyday, she is friendly with other dogs, and cats, although sometimes gets a little excited when she sees a new furry friend she thrives when she has others to play with. She has been around chickens, and other farm animals and hardly even pays attention that they are there. If she does not get her energy out she can sometimes get a little anxious and scared if over stimulated but generally is a lover of all people all ages. She is fully house and crate trained, but due to changes at work she can no longer go with me everyday and it is not fair for me to have her in a crate for 10+ hours a day without having a yard for her to run in and get her puppy energy out as she is about to turn a year old. I am looking for a family with a yard or land for her.

Story
Meet Max, he is approximately 10-11 yrs old. He is a very sweet and loving boy. He does great with all animals and loves everyone including kids. He is a big cuddle bug and in his mind makes a great lap dog too. He loves to sneak in those wet kisses whenever he can too. If you are familiar with the movie Shrek, I have always said that he has the exact same personality as the donkey..lol!! He loves to chill and if allowed, hog the bed while he snores in your ear. He lives in a house with kids, other dogs and cats and has done great with all of them, he really doesn’t have a mean bone in his body..if anything the cats bully him around. He does have occasional skin allergies, I feel like more in the spring and summer months that will occasionally cause a visit to the vet but nothing serious or hard to get under control. This is a hard decision for me to make but in all fairness to him the best thing I can do.

Story
I acquired Ace as a puppy for free, he is 1yo he is a great dog! He is German Shepherd and Lab mix so he is really smart, energetic and potty trained. I am looking to rehome ONLY because my daughter is starting to become allergic to him so I have to keep them separate from one another which is obviously challenging.
