Story
Bella is a very sweet dog. She is great with my two younger children and gets along well with my cat and older Pitt bull. So why do I need to re-home her? Since I purchased her, I have needed to go back to work full time and have become a single mother. She just isn't getting the attention she deserves and I feel horrible about that. I hope she can find a loving home with lots of room to romp and play.

Story
Lola is sweet and pretty laid back. She is a little shy to new people but warms up quickly. Can be a little vocal at times but mostly loves to get cuddles on the couch, be swirled up under a blanket or enjoying some zoomies around the yard when it's warm and sunny. She is approximately 9 years old and weighs around 7lbs. She's potty trained and crate trained. Due to my busy schedule in the medical field she does not get the attention/free time she deserves. She's getting down in the dumps so I'd love for someone with more free time to enjoy her calming snuggles.

Story
We have had to make the very hard decision to downsize our animals due to my husbands medical issues and increased costs. We have had Jaxson since he was 8 weeks and he is now two years old. He has been to obedience classes, has been fully vetted, including current Lyme disease vaccination. He is neutered, been microchip, and LOVES to be with people. He is good with other dogs, cats, and older kids. He is crate trained and housebroken. Jaxson is a lapdog and loves to be cuddled and carried. He is very playful. He does need to be reminded of his manners occasionally and we recommend crating him when unattended for a period of time as he can be prone to mischief. We will only adopt him out to a quality home that can afford to give him the best, has time for him, and doesnt mind giving references and a home visit before adoption. If you cannot or will not, please dont inquire.

Story
Meet Bailey. She is full of LOVE and needs a loving home. We rescued her from a shelter 3 years ago and they did not know much about her, they thought she was around 2 at the time, we believe she is around 7-9 years old currently. She is mixed breed, and we don't know for sure, but shelter listed her as American Staffordshire. She seems to have a hunter instinct towards small animals like cats, bunnies, etc. so no homes with cats. She is very sweet, but won't do well in a loud, active home with small kids She is good with older, calm children. She shakes with storms and wind. She does sleep in bed with us, and often likes to Burrough under the covers. She prefers warmer weather, and the one thing the shelter told us was that she came from "the south". In the winter, she will only go outside to use the bathroom and then right back inside. She would love a home where the owners are around all/most of the day. A fenced yard would be best. She does not like water.

Story
Ursla Ursla is a female Husky/Shar Pei/Retriever mix. (breed) DOB: April of 2022 Adoption fee: $100.00 I am a beautiful girl. My confidence with new people, places and things is low. The only memory I have is of being at the shelter. I love it here, but I deserve more. I enjoy going for walks with my volunteer friends. My favorite toys are big bouncy/squeak balls. I play well with other dogs, pending personalities. I am not a leader. I do like to give hugs to my favorite staff members and sometimes we enjoy a dance when our favorite songs come on the radio. I can be quite the character at times. I will need a physically fenced yard. I have never been around young children; I am recommended for older children. Not sure about cats, I see them all the time and may be fine with a cat in my home if we are introduced slowly. I would be a great companion for someone who just wants a dog to be grateful to see them at the end of a long day.
