Story

Trixie is a 4 year old Black Lab/Hound mix. She is the sweetest, sassiest girl that loves her independence as long as she can still be around you. Trixie loves chewing on bones, playing fetch and taking naps in the room you are in. Trixie does have allergies (both food and environment). Her current food is The Farmers Dog which she does well on. Due to Trixie’s allergies she is prone to ear infections. She currently has an ear infection that needs treatment however due to life circumstances I can no longer afford the vet visits. With more consistent care I fully believe Trixie’s ear infections can go away almost completely, she just needs the right home and attention. Trixie loves other dogs and all humans and would make a great life companion for anyone that can give her love and attention.

Story

Jasper has a way of making anyone he meets fall in love with him. He loves human interaction more than he likes other dogs lol. It is required for him to be in a single dog home where he can have all the attention. He is not friendly with other dogs. Jasper was born to be an emotional support animal. I have multiple mental illnesses and when I’m having an outburst he will stay by my side and cuddle up to me until it passes. He is a huge cuddle bug and will lay on top of you whenever you lay down. He loves being as close to you as he can possibly be. He’s not very vocal but he’ll bark occasionally. Chasing squirrels and rabbits is his favorite thing to do other than playing tug of war. He needs somewhere he can run around and feel like he’s a puppy again.

Story

I rescued Apollo the beginning of February . I thought he would be a lovely addition to our family. I’ve tried every option to make this work, thinking that it will all work out eventually. Now its to the point where my boxer has to wear a soft muzzle every day and the vet told me yesterday the boxer is living in constant stress. The puppy is a love , he’s a sweet, sweet boy ,but he’s a puppy, he’s hyper at times . They cuddle fantastically , but if the puppy’s not sleeping, the boxer wants nothing to do with him. The boxer has grown to be very territorial , jealous, and she snaps at the drop of a hat. The reality is, it’s not fair to the puppy to constantly be separate from us, for his safety. He deserves a really good home with constant love and it breaks my heart, but it needs to be done. For the Benefit and well-being of both the dogs . Please help me find the puppy a good loving home. He’s a love, and a fun goofy. He’ll bring a smile to your heart.

Story

Dogs must stay together. They are sisters that love each other very much. Very attached to one another. Dogs are very cuddly. Love to take walks Dogs are 3 years old. They are crated during the day while we are at work. Dogs would need a home with some one who could spend more time with them. Perhaps a fenced in yard which we don’t have. Dogs are energetic but do love to sleep and cuddle with each other. My husband is recovering from stage 3 Cancer. These dogs are not getting the love and attention they need. We are overwhelmed.

Story

Hey Y'all, Grady here. Since I first met you, I have grown HUGE. I fit the category of "Gentle Giant" and "Ninja". I have also been called a horse. But, whatever you want to call me, sweet & kind fits best. January 16, 2024 I turned 1 year old. My foster mom said I weigh 110 lbs. There is nothing more that I love than kisses on my nose and head, scratches, hugs, swiping something from right under your nose, hanging out in my crate, hanging out at your feet, squishing myself into small areas (close to you) for a nap. I love playing in the sprinkler, playing chase with my fur-siblings here in foster care. I am dog social, love my people (nervous at first with new people but warm up quickly), house trained, crate trained, car rides. My mom is a Mountain Cur and dad a Labradoodle. All of my siblings have been adopted. For some reason I am still here. It is not a bad place, actually quite fun. I love the cold weather (we had snow this year). My ideal furever family would love to snuggle, have patience, go hiking, camping, play in the water (sprinklers are perfect), go for car rides, and go to the beach. I have heard all about it. I think that is for me.

Story

Howdy Do. My name is Gunnar. I just have to be the softest sweetest lovingest boy you have ever met. I am a Black Mouth Cur. I just love being around you, riding in the car, hanging out in the yard watching the cars go by or snuggled next to you while we watch a movie. If given the opportunity, I would love to snuggle in bed with you. My foster parents keep saying they just do not understand why I was dumped. I was found wandering out in the country up a nice lady's driveway. Immediately I could tell how kind she was. We hit it off immediately. But, I am still a puppy with tons of energy and not overly familiar with etiquette. So, the lady's daughter called the rescue I am with. The daughter knows the rescue will spoil me rotten while I wait to get adopted. My ideal family is one who likes the outdoors (running, hiking, camping, ball games, yard work), and loves to spend the day watching movies if the weather isn't cooperating. Please fill out an application and deposit to begin my journey to you furever. Gunnar Male Neutered Breed: Black Mouth Cur Age 7 months Weight 47 Great with people, children, dogs/ puppies, and/ or cats/ kittens. Adoption Donation $495
