Nala is a very loving and sweet dog, we have had her since she was 4 months old and is now 7 years old. She loves to go on walks and car rides. Also, she loves to cuddle and lay on you or next to you. She is great with other dogs, I can provide videos of her playing with big dogs and small dogs as well. Have to rehome her due to my moving out of state. No adoption fee, Just want to be sure she goes to a good loving home.

Story
Wally is a loving, funny, cuddly, playful 7-year old Westiepoo. Wally adores children and other dogs. He was my elderly mother’s constant companion. Wally has fear-aggression and will growl or bite when he’s scared. Due to a recent bite, Wally can no longer be cared for by my elderly mother. He is on daily anxiety medication and requires additional medication for grooming and vet appointments. Unfortunately our life is not suited for providing an environment that can support Wally’s specific needs. He will chase our cat and needs to be in a home with someone who can devote time and attention to supporting his behavioral needs. He is up-to-date on all shots/vaccines/etc. He is so loved, but needs a new home where he can be cherished.

Story
Rocky is a 7 yr. old, neutered male bichon. Although Rocky supposedly lived with another dog in his previous home, he's been in foster care for awhile now, and we believe he needs to be an only dog. When he has been with other dogs in his foster home, scuffles and jealousy have been a consistent issue. He's much happier as an only dog. Rocky is house trained as long as he gets out regularly. If he is left alone for long periods of time or not given regular opportunities to go outside, he will mark in the house. Rocky LOVES visitors. He will snuggle up to anyone who comes over to get some love. However, his favorite thing is to just hang with his trusted peeps. We don't have kids in our household, and given his alpha personality, we think Rocky would probably do best in an adult home. However, with all the adult visitors that have come to our house, with very few exceptions, Rocky has been extremely friendly. He is put off by loud, "in your face" behavior. This causes him to be very tentative. If we are running errands and are just going to be running in and out of stores for a minute here and there, Rocky comes along for the ride. He's a great traveler and LOVES coming along. If he's welcome in a store or restaurant and there aren't a lot of other dogs, we bring him along. He's great with PEOPLE, but not so much with other dogs. Rocky is a couch potato when you want to sit on the couch and watch a movie or take a nap. However, he's also extremely active and playful. If you don't feel like playing with him, he'll find a toy or a dog bed and play with it all by himself. He can be a hoot to watch. If he feels you are not giving him an appropriate amount of attention, he will come over and either sit on top of you or "paw" you until you start doing your job! (i.e., petting him or playing with him!) Rocky's photos don't do him justice. We took them when he first arrived and they don't show his true personality. He's absolutely adorable. Just like all bichons, he's adorable, but his personality makes him even cuter. Everyone who visits falls in love with him.
