This page is an option for people outside of surrendering pets to a shelter in their area that euthanizes. This also allows pets to be in an environment they are comfortable in. If you would like to post a dog on this page, please reach out to our contact here. Also, visit Get Your Pet! They are an online community that connects people who want to adopt a pet with people who need to find their pet a new home.

I love all people and give lots of kisses! I will cuddle with you for as long as you want! I am great with kids as well. I am potty trained and crate trained.

Annie

Annie came to our family as a pregnant foster in September 2020 and gave birth to 8 puppies! She is about 4 years old, 75 pounds, up to date on all shots. She is very mellow and loves to hike and walk and visit the dog park. She loves other dogs, though can be aggressive while on a leash. It would be a challenge to integrate her into a home with cats. Great with children. Ideal home would have outdoor space, she loves being outside.

We need to rehome Annie because in the last year, we have lost our home and I have lost my health due to toxic mold exposure. We had to move into a small apartment and are uncertain when we will be able to return to our home or find a different one. I am a single mother of three and run a business, the additional stress of dealing with our housing issue and health problems has left very little time or energy to give Annie the love and attention she needs. She deserves an amazing life and I can’t provide that for her right now. My family and I would love to petsit for her when needed after she is rehomed. I will provide several months worth of food and all of her belongings.

Jade

Jade is aboutt 5.5 years-old, and we think she's a catahoula mix. She knows sit and stay. Comes when whistled to as well. She is potty trained, leash trained, and likes her crate! She's grown up with other dogs but prefers to be the only one getting attention. She is shy initially with strangers and would prefer not to be with kids. She loves being active, going on hikes, being outdoors. She loves attention and is very protective and loyal. She also likes to cuddle, and relax too! 

Chancho

Chancho is 2 years old. He is potty trained, tends to go in one area outdoors. He knows sit, lay down, paw, drop it (if he has anything in his mouth that he shouldn’t), and down (stops jumping and to get off couch).

He’s good in a crate, he sleeps in an open crate and can stay in his crate if need be, there’s occasional crying but he does well. On the leash he does well and doesn’t pull too much unless he’s really excited and wants to see another dog.

Does well with small dogs and I was working on socializing with big dogs. It’s a hit or miss! Sometimes he does really well and other times he’s more dominant. Does well with strangers but is more frightened of tall men and can become agitated by them if not given some space.

He does really well with older kids and is not aggressive towards them but can forget his own strength and knock them over.

He likes walks, play with his toys and soccer balls and naps!

Lots of energy when playing and out and about but if he’s left alone he can be a bit of a couch potato.

Pebbles

We unfortunately have to find a new home for our dog Pebbles. Pebbles is a 6 year old Lab Mix who weighs about 70lbs with all of her up-to-date shots. I have had Pebbles since she was 5 months old and actually had adopted her through Lifeline. She knows basic commands like come, sit, lay, off(down), place, etc. She is a very sweet girl who is generally well-behaved around the house and definitely likes to have attention. She LOVES playing tug-o-war with her ropes, and teasing you with her tennis balls. She hasn't been put in a crate in probably 4 years, so I'm not sure how she would do with that, but she generally used to just lay down and go straight to sleep. She would have some accidents in the crate from time-to-time back then. She is great around the house, and is house broken. She won't chew anything so no need to worry about your belongings being destroyed. 

 

Pebbles loves going on walks and sunbathing in a warm spot outside. If you don't mind running around a little, she will happily chase you. She loves all humans and gets pretty excited when people come over. She does have a problem with jumping on people when they come into our house, all due to excitement, but settles down after a few minutes. I'd like to emphasize that she is absolutely WONDERFUL with kids. She loves playing with them and seems especially happy when they're around! Our nieces are actually very bummed that we have to find Pebbles a new home. 

 

Pebbles is not, however, good with other animals. We have another male dog who is a similar size and unfortunately she is very dominant toward him, going as far as to start fights with him sometimes. We're expecting a new addition to the family at the end of the year and just can't have that around a newborn baby. I absolutely love this dog and she is such a wonderful, loving pooch, but she just needs a home where she is the only pet and her owners understand that she doesn't do well around other animals. She also is very excitable/aggressive toward other dogs walking by our house (through the fence of course). 

 

I'm very sad to say in the last couple weeks we have also found out about a Medical issue that requires surgery which we can't afford at this time. It is an issue that needs to be addressed for her to continue living with a reasonable quality of life and I will be happy to give you more information should you have a big enough heart to be interested in this amazing pup. 

Bo

Hello all.. This is Bo. He will be 2 in August and is a Lab/Pitbull mix. Bo is a very sweet boy, treat motivated, excited to learn and experience new things and energetic. Bo gets along with the girl dog in his home and with other dogs outside of the house like when he was in the board and train program. He does get excited because he wants to meet everyone.

However, Bo is currently in training with his brother because both boys want to be Alpha. For them to both thrive and have the best doggy life, they would be better in separate homes. Preferably for Bo to be the only dog in the house, but could do well with another girl dog as long as he gets a lot of attention.

He is potty trained, knows how to use a doggy door or ask to be let out. He knows how to sit, down, stay, Let’s go, heal and Free which releases him from his climb. He is very treat motivated so he is interested in learning. He is kennel trained but prefers to hang out on his climb.

He is good with kids, teens especially. Bo loves to be the center of attention, loves everyone he meets and needs that special someone to have patience and time to devote to him.

COOPER

  

Cooper is 3 years old and 65 pounds.

 

He is a sweet cuddle bug once he is comfortable with you and when he initiates it. He is hilarious and such a goofy dog with a strong personality that will make you laugh everyday. Someone will be lucky to have him as a part of their life. He will need the right person to take it slow.

When he is in a quiet environment, he is very calm and loving. When he is uncomfortable or feels cornered, his defense mechanism is to bite. He needs a very slow introduction to strangers (especially men). He does best on a leash or separated from strangers when first introduced so he can get some time to warm up to them, then do a slow introduction.

He has lived with another dog the past 3 years and gets along with him great. He is a very excited dog who loves to play and play and at some point can need to be told to calm down so the other dog can rest.

He needs someone who is patient and willing to work with him. He has been through basic, intermediate, and advanced obedience classes and is very smart and a quick learner. 

He is potty trained and knows the commands: Sit, Down, Stay, Come, Wait, Heal, and Place. He walks well on a leash with a prong collar. He does not do well in a crate so he will need some help getting used to one.

 

Required to adopt Cooper:

No homes with children

Must have experience with biting dogs (preference will be given to certified trainer)

Must be familiar with or willing to muzzle train

He does much better with women than men when first meeting

  • Likes: Sunbathing, Chest Pats, Couch Snoozin with Pillow and Blanket of course, Sniffing the Mail, Treats, Cuddling
  • Dislikes: Feeling cornered, people not respecting his space, loud noises
  • Temperament: Cooper is a higher energy dog when he’s nervous/anxious. But when he’s comfortable in his environment he loves cuddling, napping, and lounging.
