Story
Lambeau was originally adopted from Alaska Bully rescue when he was a puppy. He is a big boy but is very timid. He is fearful of loud noises and does not enjoy car rides due to being in a car accident when he was younger. He will need to be in a home with people who can build his confidence and help him adjust to a new place. He must go to a home with no small children as he is afraid of young kids and has snapped at them. He would be fine with children in the home in their teens. He is a great guy than really needs a quiet home when he can get plenty of exercise.

Story
This handsome boy is looking for a new forever home. He is a great boy and listens well to commands. He is a little on the timid side but once he warms up is an absolute lover. He does well with older kids but needs to be with kids that respect his boundaries. He does have some separation anxiety and would do best in a home where he is not alone for long periods or can go to work with his owner.

Story
Esme has been working with one of our wonderful trainers for the past couple of months She originally came in with dog aggression as well as a lot of other insecurities. She has made leaps and bounds in her training. She is now able to be around other dogs in a controlled environment. She is learning how to be kenneled and know she is okay and safe there. She will need a home with no other dogs. She has done well with the trainers older cat but if a cat were in the home it would need to be an old cat as a kitten may trigger her drive to chase them. There will be followup training with our trainers once she finds a forever home and she has great potential to be a wonderful companion. She needs home with older kids who are able to encourage her positive reinforcement training.
