Story
My Requirements:-No CatsHi, I`m Kodiak and I`m so happy to meet you! I`m a big fluffy, happy dude who loves people of all ages and dogs. My personality is friendly, outgoing and you could say that I`m an extrovert. My energy level is medium- so I like to play, but since I`m a bigger guy, my endurance isn`t great. We can go for walks, play fetch in the back yard or chase with my dog friends, but after that it`s time to chill. My new home must be ok with lots of dog hair, but it can`t have any cats. They do not appreciate my enthusiasm so I can`t live with them. Other than that, I`m pretty great- send in an application to meet me today!

Story
We got Sydney from her previous owner who had to give her up for medical reasons. She's about 1 year and 3 months old and overall a really great, well adjusted dog. She gets along well with our other two dogs, and at the parks she has never had a problem with other dogs there. She went through a canine good citizen course when she was younger so she has a solid training base. She also does well on walks and doesn't pull much at all and isn't reactive to other dogs or the random squirrel that runs by. She's also a huge snuggler, her favorite place to lay down for a nap is right next to you! The main reason we're looking to rehome her is she has too much energy for our two older dogs and it's made our house stressful for them unfortunately.

Story
Who’s looking for a little extra sunshine in their life?! Sweet Sunny has a story that is sadly all too common these days - she was picked up as a stray in rural Texas, and brought to the local shelter where she waited for a family who never came looking for her. While we’re not 100% sure what Sunny’s past looks like, she is as sweet as they come. She has several characteristics of a Great Pyrenees, stubborn, cautious and will bark when she hears something, but also is a very loving, sweet and gentle girl. As Sunny has settled into her foster home she has done really well. She is getting along great with the resident dogs, and would really love another dog to play with in her forever home. She does seem to like cats, but maybe just a little bit too much, so we would recommend a home without. She’s still learning that toys can be fun, but she does love chewing on bones. Sunny will require a home with a fully, physically fenced yard. She has been spayed, microchipped, and is up to date on vaccines. If you would like to give Sunny the forever home she deserves, please reach out to yurko.mar0903@gmail.com for an application.
