Story
I've had my dog Tiny since birth, he was literally born into my hands. Recently, I've faced a lot of lifestyle changes, and simply don't have space in my tiny apartment for a dog. I wish I could keep him, but he deserves more attention than he gets now. A house with a great back yard or even a vineyard would be perfect for Tiny. He's loveable, goofy, a little distracted, loyal, and sensitive. Whenever I feel low, he comes by to cuddle. Whenever we go for a walk he wants to chase every critter and rabbit he spots. I love my dog, and parting from him means he went to a better home than what I could provide. So if you have a porch with some land, rabbits that show up every morning, and you enjoy having a hunting dog that will trek the highest mountain range with you, adopt Tiny. He's just sitting in my apartment everyday dreaming of a life outdoors. I can't give him that life being a single father paying child support and barely affording housing. Please help. Trial maybe.

Story
Zeus was rescued from euthanasia at 5 weeks old. He will be 3 years old October 22nd. He is a big goofball that is unsure about new people and dogs at first but with slow proper introduction he does fine. He would need his new family to take things slow with him. He is very nervous around kids so he would need a calm quiet environment without children. He loves playing ball and snuggles on the couch.

Story
Meet Buster, he is 14 weeks old with a DOB around 12/01/2024. He was from a litter of puppies rescued from a homeless person. My sister brought him home while she was out visiting from Georgia and she had planned on taking him back with her. However, she wasn’t able to, so we agreed to continue caring for him. We can no longer keep him but would like to make sure he goes to a loving and good home. Specifically somebody who knows how to care for Pitbull breed dogs as he has had some slight behavioral issues. He is very sweet, playful and loving. He gets excited and wags his tail whenever he gets attention and when meeting new people. He is good with my children but he does have to be told constantly to not nip. He just needs someone who can devote the time and dedication to training him. He loves his toys and his favorite thing is to bask in the sun any chance he gets. Buster will bring laughter and joy to anyone’s home. He has very beautiful and unique markings on his coat as well.

Story
   Currently located in Iowa but available for transport to California.      Rhea is an active girl! She loves to run around and play! She has potential if you want a dog that plays fetch! She loves to chase after the ball but hasn't learned yet to bring the ball back. She would be amazing if you want a dog that will go camping with you, hiking, jogging, ect.      She can be a pretty busy girl who like to explore and be doing things. We are recommending her with kids ages 10+ because of how active she is and she could knock down younger kids.        Rhea like all of her siblings is very smart and knows her name and sit. She is very treat and praise motivated!  ##1756651##

Story
Chunk is a lovable 60 lb mix whos been part of our family for six years.We adopted him from the Humane Society, and is spayed and microchipped. He’s so cuddly and believes he’s a lap dog despite his size! Chunk loves car rides, lounging, and snuggling. Chunk is wonderful with children and gets along well with dogs. He may chase cats, though means no harm. He’s looking for a home that can help him with tasks like climbing stairs or getting in and out of the car, as his short stature can make these challenging. He thrives in a yard where he can zoom around freely, though most of the time he’s a laid back companion who doesn’t bark. He’s the perfect mix of playful and relaxed, with a personality that will make you fall in love. Rehoming Chunk is an incredibly difficult decision. After our son was born with disabilities we’ve struggled to balance Chunk’s needs. While he’s been staying with my parents, we know he deserves a forever home where he can receive the love and care he deserves.
