Story
Lexi is a 12 year old lab/chow mix. She is a gentle sweetheart who is house and leash-trained. She has never had an accident inside. She loves kids and is not very jumpy. She loves being outside and going for a walk. She has been both an indoor and outdoor dog. She would do best in a home that can give her the attention she deserves. After getting married and now having a baby on the way, we are not the right home for her, so we unfortunately need to find her a new loving home. As she has gotten older she has mild cataracts and becomes defensive around other dogs, but has never shown any aggression towards humans. Her ideal home would probably not have any other dogs, unless you are someone who has experience introducing dogs to each other and are willing to be patient with this sweet lady.

Story
Bailey is a sweet girl, the sweetest of them all. She has sweet honey colored eyes, loves snuggles and lives for treats. She’s hard to take out on a walk because shes gained so much weight after her spaying surgery went wrong. She almost died on the table and had to be put in an overnight hospital for 2 days for close observation. She’s been okay since but she gets tired on walks and we have to carry her home lol my girl deserves the best home possible. Someone who is able to feed her on time, on the dot, because she will rattle every gate and bang on every door until she’s fed. I would give anything to keep her but unfortunately our situation has changed. If you are interested in meeting this sweet beagle/german shepherd mix then please message me.

Story
Nala came to me as a birthday gift! She’s 2 years and 3 months old. What we are looking for in a new home is someone that’s going to love and take care of her unconditionally. Some adjectives I would use to describe my pet is enthusiastic, excited, smiley, loving, cuddleable.

Story
Thank you so much For your interest we have received adequate applications for providing him a home that we are currently in the process of reviewing We wish you best of luck locating the pet of your dreams! If you have applied to adopt Falcor we will get back to you! This is Falcor (named after the never ending story) This sweet boy came to us after he was shot in the head with a BB gun. He had an infection in his head because of his prior owner failing to give him medical attention. We had to put him through emergency surgery as a result. He was also severely matted (We posted a photo of him here after his surgery) We can also share with you photos of him before his haircut so you could see what he will look like when his hair grows back. Despite the terrible owners that he had previously, he is such a lover and a complete joy to have around. He’s great for anybody that’s looking for a companion. He does excellent just hanging out all day at home relaxing, or going on walks and hikes. Despite the terrible owners that he had previously he is such a great dog for anybody that’s looking for a companion... possibly a retired person would love this dog? He’s big enough that an elderly person will not trip over him and he is loyal he will follow you around and all he wants to do is give affection. Peluche is the name that his old owner had given him and it means stuffed toy dog in Spanish. This boy is a gem and deserves a home that will love him as much as he will love you. His drainage tube shown in the photos has been removed by his dogtor. His hair has started to grow back and he is now available to go to his new home. Peluche is now living in a foster home with a Saint Bernard.. of which he tolerates but doesn’t particularly care to have any dog friends. Just peoples love. He survived with his old owners because he hunted squirrels and wild rabbits on the 30 acre ranch. So small pets are an absolute no. But he will tolerate dogs. He loves humans and he is always super excited for his meals. Very food motivated. So should be simple to train. If you wish to donate for his medical expenses or supply food or products for him, head on over to these links and take a look at the needs: https://www.facebook.com/458566664181329/posts/2746835975354375/?d=n ❤️ 🐾How can you help?

Story
Max is a sweet loving 3 year old dog. He came to us when no one else wanted him we have had him living in our apartment with our female Chihuahua. When we first got him it was suppose to be only temporary but of course we fell in love with him once you meet him how can you not, our landlord has been patient with us in trying to find him a forever home. He is great with kids, he likes a lot of attention but doe not like rough housing as he wants to protect everyone in the family. He is very playful he thinks he is the size of a Chihuahua. He needs someone who has a lot of time on their hands to train him he did learn how to sit and stay he needs a yard to run and be free. Max does like other pets but doesn’t like male dogs as he is very dominant but I know once trained he would get along with any pet, We wish we can keep him but unfortunately we are not able to provide for him the way he deserves. Living in a apartment is no Quality of life.
