Story

Hello everyone! I have a dog that I have had for a few years that I can no longer afford to keep. He is a shepherd and pit bull mix with yellow and white markings. He has the most expressive black eyebrows that make it easy for him to let you know what he's thinking. Because of the pit bull, he is muscular and has a larger head but has the ears, face and build of the shepherd. His name is Echo and he likes to cuddle at night or when you come home from work. He enjoys butt scratches and rubs behind the ears, but not as much as he loves getting his belly rubbed! He LOVES being outside and going through the grass with his ears back to feel it on his face. He may be walking and suddenly gets the excitement of a dog that just remembered sticks exist, finding the perfect one that he wants to play fetch with! On September 21st Echo will be four years old. I am looking for a wonderful home for him to grow old in around a loving person or family.

Nova

Bull Terrier Collie

Female, Adult

Zephyr Cove, NV

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Not good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Nova is a very loving girl. We have put a lot of thought into finding her a new home and it saddens us to do so. We feel that setting her up for success in a home without small children (or children on the horizon) is the most loving thing we can do for her. Please note that she has had only positive interactions with school aged children- infants and toddlers are our concern. Nova’s two most favorite things to do are to play and to snuggle. She is a total cuddle bug after wearing herself out with her toys, doing zoomies, or playing with her ball. She’ll climb into your lap or rest her head on you. She is happy to chew on antlers or hard dog toys for hours. She has lots of energy so she would do great with someone who is fun, and loves to wrestle and play. Nova is crate trained. It is her safe place. Nova is headstrong which comes with her breed but she is food driven. She is a wonderful girl and will give all her love to you! She is the best!

Story

Kai is a great dog with adults, kids and female dogs. He is not good with my old and ailing lab. He is aggressive and has attacked my lab 3 times in the last 3 weeks. We've had Kai for 4 years and we've tolerated this aggressive behavior because it (up till now) happened rarely. We are afraid for our lab's safety.
