Story
Gina is active, loving and a big teddy bear dog. She’s 2 years old and her birthday is April 20th. I received her when she was a puppy from a family friend. As a puppy I knew Gina was special. As a puppy she would chew our shoes and steal our socks. As she grew older she now doesn’t chews any of our stuff but still steals socks from the hamper. She is potty trained and will make it known that she needs to go outside. She completed basic obedience training as a puppy. She is very food driven so if you’re trying to get her to do anything make sure you have a treat near by. She does okay with some dogs. There are times where she would rather be alone playing than with other dogs. She is very active and likes to jump so when around small children I tend to keep her close so she doesn’t knock them down on accident but she has never been aggressive towards humans. She loves attention and affection and that’s what I want in her forever home.

This little ham is Barrett. He is an 8 year old English Bulldog mix. He would do well in a home with other dogs but he is not a big fan of cats so a home with out any cats or small animals or small children is a must. He loves to go for walks and could use some training on his basic commands and obedience/ leash manners. He is such a goofy boy come on down and meet him you will leave with a smile on your face.

He prefers people to toys, loving instead to sit in your lap and love you.Mo may not do well in a home with younger children, as he can get possessive over pig ears. He will benefit from socialization/food training. Mo is highly motivated, so training should come easy.
