Story
He’s very friendly, lovely dog. He’s 2 years old. We adopted him when he was 3 months old. But couldn’t keep him due to busy schedule. Then our relatives adopted him. We used to meet him every now and then. Then they were renting a house but now they’re renting an apartment where he’s not allowed. So they left him at my house. I still have very busy schedule so can’t keep him. Don’t want to leave him in a shelter either. He is neutered and has all his shots. I have all his paperwork. Looking for a nice family for him who can make him their family member.

Story
This sweet girl “rescued” me one afternoon on a very busy street. I stopped to see if she had a collar on and she jumped in my car. We would keep her except for we have 4 other dogs. She is great with them, but we feel like she needs more attention than we can give her. She is such a sweet dog and just wants to be loved.

Story
Benny is looking for a good home. He is about 4 yrs old & came from a shelter in Starkville. My son is moving and cannot take Benny with him as pets are not allowed. He is well-behaved, house-trained, but does not care for other animals. The vet recently put him on Prozac which seem to ease his anxiety issues. He would do best to be with someone that is home all the time.

Yetti is a 2-3 year old Akita. He has been fixed. We rescued him about 3 months ago. He’s very friendly and has a great personality and is very easy going. He’s great with kids. He’s good on a leash. He is house broken. He must have been someone’s pet before we rescued him, he’s that well adjusted. Looking for him to find his forever home.
