Story
We adopted Bumpy from a private owner last spring. He was very wild when we got him and that has improved significantly. Unfortunately he has become too aggressive in play towards our elderly dogs and we must rehome him. He loves people especially kids and wants to play with other dogs but needs to play with bigger dogs. He is definitely a beagle in a pug suit, so someone who is familiar with that breed is a preferred adopter. He has never around cats or small animals due to his beagle prey drive. He is housebroken and crates very well, he has food allergies so must be on a strict salmon and sweet potato diet but a very good food is available at pets supplies plus. He is a very charming and loving dog and it breaks my heart to rehome him, but I have to think about what is best for everyone in our pack.

Story
This is Griswald! (Also know as Griz). I am looking to find a new home for him. He is a great dog who is full of love! Unfortunately we are having issues with him nipping at our young toddler and want to find a better fit for him. He is a little bit of a nervous guy… but it doesn’t take long for him to warm up and once he knows he can trust you he will love you forever. It’s very hard for me to say goodbye, but I think it’s the best choice for him right now.

Story
Bruce is a loyal loving dog. He loves to be pet and will let you know it by tapping you to ask you to pet him. He is housebroken and knows how to ring bells when he wants to go out. He requires a home with a fenced in yard. He does not do well with small children. I love my dog and ultimately want the best life for him. I would be happy to let interested adopters try him out and see if he is a good fit their family. I will take him back if it isn't the right fit. I would also be very happy to care for him when his new family goes out of town. I currently live in a condo and the condo environment is not right for my dog.
