Story
Zoey loves our children but cannot be with any small dogs. Zoey would do best with a big yard to run in and be best as the only dog. She has little to no experience with other large dogs so I cannot say how she would be. She needs someone with breed specific experience to offer her extended training. She is high energy but very lovable to humans.

Story
As much as I hate to do it, I need to re home my American Bully. His name is chubs and his birthday is Dec 17, 2017. He has an appointment to get neutered that I will pay for. He’s up to date on his shots and great with kids. I’d prefer him to be an only dog due to some issues with the dog we have. He gets along with our female chihuahua. I have recently separated from my husband and moved into an apartment. I would like him to have a yard for to run in. They also need to be experienced with the bully breed. He is a great dog with a great temperament.

Story
We adopted Duke almost 4 years ago from our local animal shelter. He was between 6-8 months old at the time of adoption. Guessing his birthday to be in November. Duke has an amazing personality. Loves to be chased, play soccer and very long walks. He doesn't bark, but will wine when he thinks its passed eating time. Lol! He will talk to you. Its hilarious. This was a hard decision to fi d Duke a new home. Duke will need a completely fenced in yard(at least a 6ft). He needs a family that can match his energy level. Long walks or even runs. Play with him as much as possible. He does like playing with other dogs. Would like a family that has knowledge about the husky breed.

Story
Grizz is very cuddly. I took him from an abused home about 5 years ago. He is much better with women than men. He hardly ever barks and is appreciative of any love he can get. He is getting older and seems to drop urine when sleeping but other than that a perfect companion. He listens and obeys well. An outside dog and needs brushing often due to the chow in him. So beautiful and snugly! Gets along with other animals and does not chew things.

Story
We love our baby girl Dolly. She has been my emotional support animal for almost a year now. However I am very allergic to her :( She was abandoned at the pound which is where we rescued her from. She has severe anxiety with change. When you first get her, she may throw up or have diarrhea. We adopted her a little less than a year ago so we haven't finished working on that with her. She sheds ALOT. Its why we are unable to keep her. She is super super super cuddly. She needs lots of exercise and TLC. She is very obedient and sweet. However she is a very protective dog. She is a dog with a purpose. That being said, she is VERY aggressive with other dogs. She might seem like she wants to just play at first, but don't be fooled. She is whining because she's freaking out. She is great with people, and if in a family with kids, the kids need to be older. She has to be given a de shed bath every month. I would prefer she has a yard to run a round in. Love her unconditionally.
