Story
Philly is a sweet-loving girl looking for a forever home! She is currently living with two other dogs and a cat and would benefit greatly from being the only dog in the home. She is working really hard on training and recently finished a one month bootcamp with Canine Coach, helping her with: recall, leave it, go to your bed, get off, leash walking, look at me. Philly needs an owner who can dedicate time to training and helping build her confidence. She gets along well with other dogs though due to an incident that was my error (not recognizing the signs she was under stress) she had a go at one of her brothers. We were unable to reintegrate them and they both deserve more. Happy to go into further detail, just ask. Philly Facts: I will wiggle my butt to show off a new toy and you MUST react with excitement! I love a good maze bowl or licky mat to work my brain, but nothing beats a new squeaky toy to destroy! I LOVE snuggles :) Kiss my belly and all is good in the world.

Story
Desi (1yr) is a sweet, confident, and playful young dog who has had a tough start but is full of love. She originally belonged to my partner’s mom, but when she could no longer care for her, Desi was given to someone who planned to abandon her on the streets. We took her in to keep her safe, but unfortunately, our home is not the right fit for her long-term. She adores playing with other dogs and cuddling with people. While she still struggles with anxiety, she has made great progress with crate training and can now be successfully crated for 6 hours. She typically has only one pee accident a day, and with consistency, she continues to improve. Desi may have allergies to chicken and mild trichiasis, which we manage with eye ointment. She needs a patient adopter with the time, space, and resources to continue her training and possibly explore medication for her anxiety. With the right care, she will be an incredible companion.

Story
Bruno is 1 year and 2 months old Staffy/APBT/Bulldog/French bulldog mix. He is crate trained and very well house trained. Currently we allow him full house free roam 24 hrs unless he needs "nap time. He uses and "outside" button and "food" button. He is an amazing dog and I have put so much effort into training. Sits, stays, leave it, high five, lay down, all the way down, settle, etc. He is OKAY on walk but is excited the first few minutes but will settle into a nice pace. He loves fetch, tug-o-war and CAN catch frisbees. Sadly he is becoming reactive towards our children and guests which I cannot figure out. I dont want to put him in a crate😥 This is going to hurt us so bad but what can we do.... HELP! Looking for a responsible adult dog owner looking for an amazing dog! I put an adoption fee but really just looking for a good home for our Bruno.

This sweet girl is one of many dogs who's fate it was to be abandoned here in the south. People are throwing sweet dogs out day and night in this economy. Ducky is one of the lucky ones that was picked up by a kind stranger and brought to a rescue that was able to find a foster! She is Spayed and UTD on required vaccines. Ducky likes other dogs but is rambunctious. She loves everyone she meets so older children would be fine. She is close to housetrained and will just need to get comfortable with her new routine. If you would like to add this sweet and very pretty girl to your forever family, please email omlc7@hotmail.com and we will send our info and app. If you do not see a response, be sure and check you junk folder.

Story
A portion of my adoption fee has been sponsored by an anonymous donor. The adoption fee sponsorship credit of $400.00 will be applied during the contract process. My name is Titan. I am a local owner surrender through the respite program. From his foster: Titan has been in my home for two months, he adapted quickly to his new environment. He is such a lovey, cuddly and affectionate sweetheart of a dog. He thinks he is a lap dog, loves to be on the couch in your lap getting 110% of your attention. He’s not a fan of smartphones, laptops or books as they divert attention away from him. He is kennel trained, but much prefers cuddling in bed at night and being by my side all day. When I work from home he likes to participate in zoom calls, if I let him he’ll speak up to encourage a short call followed by some play time. Keep away and tug-a-war are his favorites. He also likes to play tag, but he is never “it”. He is very high energy and would do great in a home with older kids who like to play rough and wrestle. I do have cats in the house with him, he does like to chase them, so they mostly stay separated. He loves other dogs, is very friendly and playful with them. He seems to be more comfortable around women and resident men, when a new male comes to my house he has some dominant behaviors we are working on. He is very food motivated and trainable. He would be a great addition to your loving family and can’t wait to meet you!
