Wriggly is a great dog and would make someone a fantastic security dog, he does really well with others dogs once acclimated to them but extremely aggressive at first.

Story
Baby is a very lovable dog. She was a rescue dog that I got about 4 years ago. She is very afraid of storms and being outside in them, the same for fireworks. She has panic attacks and starts panting heavily if she is outside when it storms. She is wonderful with children and a very good watchdog. She was just fine with an inside cat. As far as I know she is about 7 or 8 years old.

Story
Lucas is an adorable, sweet, and playful dog with a big heart. He's about five years old. He loves to go on walks and needs a lot of exercise. We are looking to rehome him for some older family members who can't keep up with him anymore. We wish we could keep him ourselves but our two older dogs aren't too fond of that idea. You will never be lonely with him around and he's a great buddy.

Story
Please note: the breed selection is incorrect. There was not a correct option for our buddy. Moose is a Hangin Tree Cattle dog. This is not a very familiar breed, but an amazing breed. He's incredibly smart, incredibly loyal, and an all around wonderful dog. He is very much a guard dog and once he knows your are his family, he is faithful to protect you. He loves children, as we have two small children he has loved his whole life. He does live in the same house with a cat; however, I have seen him chase cats - I would have to say he does not like most cats. He definitely needs room to run. Moose's breed is similar to a Heeler, and so he needs a job to do each day.
