Story
Klaus is a loving dog as long as you're female. He has male aggressiveness and is starting to show signs of other animal aggression. We've had him since he was 6 weeks old and he's never been abused or been given a reason why he should act this way. He's fine with children as long as they are female as well.

Story
My husband works for the highway dept and found Lucy by the river bottoms when we had major flooding, her collar and leash were on the ground laying next to her, he brought her home in hopes to find her owner, her paws were injured from running on hot pavement or from being locked inside. We attempted to locate her owners by contacting the vet, after speaking to law enforcement whom had picked her up many times, we determined she had been dumped. She is super sweet, obeys commands, is very energetic, and is very playful.

Story
We found Scrappy abandoned by his previous owners and we took him in and nursed him back to health; got him a rabies vaccine, got him neutered and put some weight on his bones. He truly is such a love, VERY active and loves the outdoors. We have been putting him in a kennel at night and he gets to spend the daytime out side. He loves to fetch and run. It would be best if he went to a home that has lots of space for him to be free to roam and play; unfortunately something we can't provide for him. Wish we could keep him but he deserves more than what we can offer and we also have a newborn who we just brought home. Scrappy would make a great addition to someone's family!

Story
We found him beating and almost starved a couple of yrs ago. Brought him home and watched over him brought him inside the house and he got better with our care. He got stronger don't really know how old he is. I never had a dog inside the house but he is house trained he knows some commands Sit, lay, shake, speak, stay. We taught him that in just a few months. But after all of this time of caring for him in my house Im allergic to his hair its getting worse. For me. He needs a Good home he is like a old soul he thinks he is human.He is good around my chickens cat and other dogs and kids.. He Needs Love and Only Inside he hates to be outside very long if its to hot or cold or anytime. He does play around but mainly lays around. He is not a good watch dog he doesn't bark unless he wants back inside the house. He is Very gentle. . It breaks my heart to have to rehome him but idk how much longer my allergies are gonna take. He would be great for a single person. Or older person.
