Story
I am Bandit's 4th home. I took him on while working as a certified profession dog trainer. My goal was to rehabilitate him and rehome him. He had leash reactivity toward kids. He also gets easily overstimulated around children 12 and under. He does better with boys than with girls. I have 3 kids, one of which is an 8 year old girl. I have been able to teach her how to handle Bandit. He can integrate into a family with younger kids but he needs an experienced handler or dog trainer for this to happen. He loves to chew and shred so he will need outlets for these behaviors. He also loves to play fetch. He becomes overstimulated around water, hoses specifically. He will lunge with his mouth open toward an object of interest while in play (he no longer does this with me but the behavior has not been generalized to others). He has many wonderful attributes. He loves to snuggle. He loves to talk with my girls. I would love to share more but I have run out of space to type.

Story
We rescued Murphy in December of 2021, he was a stray. Murphy was said to be about 1 year when we adopted him. We have had him for 2 years now going on 3. He is a very cuddly and loving dog that needs lots of attention. He loves to run and play so we are looking for someone who has a fenced in backyard to ensure he can have the space to do so without escaping. My fiancé and I were forced to downsize due to financial difficulties and we do not have the space to keep him happy. He deserves more than what we are able to give him right now, but are confident we will find the perfect family for him. He does well with kids and other pets. He is a very friendly, high energy pup !

Story
Willow is a special soul looking for a peaceful haven to call her own. Rescued from abandonment a few years ago, she found her way into our hearts and has since become an integral part of our family. However, as our family dynamics have evolved with young children, it has become evident that Willow craves a quieter environment where she can thrive. Perfectly house-trained and crate-trained. She cherishes her safe space. She adores outdoor adventures, car rides and exploring, though she prefers to skip the thunderstorms! Her favorite pastime? Chasing a ball! Despite her loving nature, Willow can be wary of strangers. With increased foot traffic and the energy of young children, she has understandably become more cautious and may show signs of discomfort around visitors. For her well-being and happiness, Willow would thrive in a calm, adult-only environment where she can relax and feel secure. we hope to find someone who will appreciate her for the loving and loyal companion she is.

Story
Hello! We are sadly needing to rehome our fur baby, Jude. He is 10 years old, and has been in our family since he was 3 months old since I rescued him after he was posted on Facebook. He loves cuddling and any and all attention. Unfortunately, we are cannot keep him because we are expecting another baby and he becomes very jealous. He does very well with children, is very patient, and does not become aggressive, but displays behavioral jealousy, and does bark at any noise, which will affect a newborns sleep. We also cannot afford the healthcare he needs as his age, dental work being at the top of the list. Although no aggressive, he does become nervous around men, but quickly warms up if they’re sitting down when meeting him. He loves other dogs, seems scared of cats. We really feel that he would thrive in an environment where he would receive the most attention. He will be very missed, we just have to think logically about our situation and know we can’t provide the environment needed
