Story
Gorgeous, house trained, crate trained, walks well on leash, loves to be active, knows her basic commands, and ready to go home with you; that’s our Daisy Ann! Daisy’s foster mom recently had this to say: “Daisy Ann is a beautiful dog. She is protective and loyal. She loves her adult humans and wants to be with them often. She likes to walk and play with toys and her humans!” Daisy Ann is a super-duper happy girl - just look at that face! She’s big, beautiful, and bright! She is about 4 years old, about 68 pounds, food motivated, and good with calm dogs. She is shy and needs confidence around both people and dogs - that's where you come in! If you are a strong and active pack leader who will keep up the good work and show her that she is safe, Daisy Ann is looking for you! She isn't looking for kitties, however, and would do best with respectful kids that are at least 10 years old. Please fill out an application to meet this gorgeous girl today!December 21, 2024, 5:59 pm

Story
Looking for an eager, goofy pup who wants to learn and to please? That's me, Oso! I love kids, I love my walks, am about a year and a half old, I'm housetrained, crate trained and now am also leash trained! What's next??? Bring it on! I also love finding sticks on the ground and taking them with me- guess you'll want to work on that. next I am a large pup - I was 70 lbs in early May and am still growing. Did you know that I like to talk? Yep, I do. I am a work-in-progress regarding doggie manners with other dogs but am never aggressive - I just never was taught the right way. Oh...remember that I like those sticks? I like them because I love to chew on things. My foster mom always puts me in my crate when she is gone to make sure she sets me up for success (a fancy way to say that she keeps me from chewing on things). TLRD isn't sure of my story and I'm doing all I can to move on - why dwell on the past? The theory is that my owners were evicted and I was left behind. I was running loose in a neighborhood for a few days when a nice lady happened to walk across the street. I liked her and she was able to catch me. Ready for puppy energy? Ready for a working dog who wants to work for you and please you? Then you are in the right spot! Fill out an application for me today!November 4, 2024, 8:32 pm
