Story
We have had Moose since he was a puppy. Our original intentions for getting a pyr were for livestock guardian purposes, but it did not end up working out that way and he has been a household pet from the beginning. While I and my oldest child love him, my husband and youngest child do not, and unfortunately he has become a source of contention in our family dynamic. After much deliberation, I have decided it would be best for him and our family to rehome him to a more appropriate environment where he can be himself and be happy, loved by all members of the household. Moose is 2 years old (born 6/18/2022), purebred Great Pyrenees, neutered, up to date on all vaccines and parasite medications (treated monthly with simparica trio), microchipped, and weighs 96lbs. He is goofy and playful, but a bit anxious at times, and suspicious of strangers/new things as pyrs are known for. Good with all kids, dogs, and cats (will chase to play), but NOT chickens. NEEDS SECURE FENCING (not invisible).

Story
Hilda is very playful and loving, she can be skittish as well. She needs someone who can give her a lot of attention and training. She does have a basic training. She would be perfect match for someone who loves the outdoors and who knows the breed. She is very special and deserves only the best possible owner who can give her an amazing life. Hopefully you are a high energy individual with plenty of time, space, and love for an animal that will reciprocate your love and energy. We prefer someone without other dogs and cats.

Start your year off right, with this adorable, highly energetic 7 year old Lily! She loves to run and play. She is great with kids, cats and other friendly dogs. She loves a good game of tug-a-war! Not very good at playing fetch but will run after the ball. She's looking for a home that will give her cuddles, treats and lots of play time! She is microchipped as well, though she doesn't go far from home. Please I really need someone to take her

Story
Found Harley when she was 6 months old on a Facebook post. She is going to be 9 this year. She is very dog reactive and does not tolerate other animals or kids. She has had a history of cancer (mass cell tumors) but does not seem to effect her in anyway. She also has heart palpitations that also do not effect her every day life. She needs a lot of attention from one person. She can be temperamental at times usually at night-seems to be that she just wants space. She will resource guard bones but if your stern with her she will let you take it. She has become a danger to my older dog that I've had for 12 years. She will come with all her toys. Impact Crate will be included for a$400 fee, the crate was originally$900. She will break out of normal wire crates. She doesn't like any sort of clothes or harnesses, she will run away from you if she sees them. She can be a great dog if she is given the attention she needs. She likes to mess on carpets sometimes but is fine on hard floor.

Story
Buddy is an amazingly sweet hound that loves attention and being around people. He needs to be fed separately along with getting his bones and treats by himself. He gets along good with other dogs but does do better with female dogs. *** Buddy will absolutely need to have a very secure fence!!!*** He can dig out so he will need to either be monitored while outside or have a secure fence he can't dig out of. He would really love a home of his own! Buddy is being fostered in Murray, KY
