Story
On a scale from 1 to 10, you're a 9 and I'm the 1 you need! My name is Trey and I can make your dreams come true. I LOVE meeting new people, cuddling, playing with my toys and being the center of attention! I also like making friends with other canines. My foster family says I love to play and get out and about - I think it's a good thing because it usually involves going hiking, running, or on an adventure when they say it! The only thing missing in my life is a family to call my own. I know I need you as much as you need me so let's make both of our dreams come true!Interested in adopting this pet?

Story
Tyson 'Bubba' is a 8 years old Shepard mix. He loves to run, play, hike, go to the beach and cuddle. Tyson has always had some anxiety due to his past. He is a sweet boy that needs a lot of activity and attention. Tyson does well with smaller dogs. He does not do well with cats and larger dogs. He does usually gravitate better to women. He has come a long way since we adopted him. He should not be around small children. We hope to find a perfect home for our sweet bubba. He deserves another chance and a good quailty life. ***************************************************************  Interested in adopting this pet?

Story
Meet Kirby! Kirby is a loving one and a half year old pup who is full of life. He is a mix of breeds, possibly boxer, rhodesian ridgeback, sharpei, and shepherd. He can be shy but is energetic, and he is very obedient with an adorable desire to please. He sits before he eats and will not pass the door step until he is invited out. He loves to play with other dogs, especially big ones! I think having a furry dominant companion would be great for him. He has a lot of energy to get out so exercise is a must. His birthday is in late August (born in 2017) so we hope you like the Leo personality! ***************************************************************  Interested in adopting this pet?
