OWNER IS ILL AND BEAR NEEDS A NEW HOME
Bear is a neutered male Geman Shepherd. He is 10 years old, 96 lbs and current on all shots. He was given up by a senior woman who could no longer care for him. He spent time in a shelter until his current owner found him on the internet. It was love at first sight. He was adopted by his current owner and his life became happy again. FromFeb., 14 2008 ,he has been a loyal and loving companion to his owner. Unfortunately, his owner is very ill with cancer and can no longer care for Bear.. His owner is devastated and now he is looking for someone who will open his/her heart and home to his very wonderful pet.Bear has been very well cared for. He is a quiet dog ,likes attention, protective ,and can be trusted to have the run of the house since he is non-destructive and housebroken. He loves his walks and does well on the leash. Bear would enjoy and benefit by being the only pet in the house. However, he likes kids of all ages. It was a pleasure meeting Bear. I only hope that he finds a home as good as the one he has now. I know it would ease his owner's mind if he knows that Bear will live his Golden Years happily. Please consider adopting Bear.

BUDDY WANTS TO BE THE MAN IN YOUR LIFE - ASAP!!!
ADOPTION PENDING 11/10/09)
BUDDY- smooth, red dachshund; 6 yrs,14lbs. neutered male; non destructive, housebroken, good with kids,. not good with cats; as for dog company, please read below. Should be introduced slowly to people company. He is a wonderful, sweet, loving and loyal dog. He is also very good with young children. He is EXTREMELY smart, has loads of energy, and is in excellent health. He is definitely an alpha male though, the attention needs to be on him! Buddy would do best in a one-dog or at the least a one-dachshund environment. With some training and re-training, he has potential to be something very special. He would excel in earth trials and other physical activities as well, if encouraged. He has all of the typical breed traits. Unfortunately the owners do not have the time to train/re-train him with socialization, nor the time to utilize his abilities and personality to it’s fullest. It has been difficult since their kids have been born, it really changed things and he has regressed. He needs time and attention. He gets the love, that is for sure BUT he needs the rest to really live his life to the fullest. Buddy says "I am looking for a new home where I can be “the man”. I am a loyal and loving companion, and the sweetest little pooch who loves to snuggle and give lots of kisses to my humans. I like my independence though, and I would do best in a one-dog home where I can be the center of the animal attention. I am great with kids though, so that won’t be a problem. I have lots of energy, and I am crazy smart! I love walks and exercise, and I can learn tricks and would LOVE to do some earth trials if you had time to work with me. I am in perfect health, my weight is just right, and as long as you keep me on my special food I won’t get itchy! I love my mommy and daddy and my brother, but I need a lot more attention since those babies came around. I know they love me too and want what is best for me, so please adopt me and let’s start our new life together!" ________________________________________________________

Cain is an American Bulldog. He is neutered and has current shots. Cain ,7 years old and 98 lbs., is housebroken and can be left alone without being destructive. He can also be left in a crate. He has a great personality. This handsome guy is laid-back and also enjoys walking. Cain is good with female dogs as evident since he lives with 3 of them . He hasn't been exposed to male dogs. He is good with cats and children of all ages. At the present time, Cain has heartworm disease. Hopefully, he will be treated before going to his new home. Please read his story submitted by his owner. Hi my name is Cain. I’m a seven year old American Bulldog in search of a new loving home. I’ve lived a very rough life. As a puppy my life was pretty good although I lived most my life outside. My owner loved me very much but at times was just too busy. The first few years were okay although I would have loved to have had a nice cozy spot indoors. After a few years, we moved to the city. That’s when things turned really bad. I was still kept outside and at times it seemed like I was forgotten. Sometimes ,I went many days without food and fresh water. Eventually hunger got the best of me and I started climbing the fence in search of food .Even then things didn’t work out very well. The dog catcher saw me and off to the pound I went. I was very scared but at least there I got a meal and was indoors for once. The scariest thing was the fact that I would be put to sleep if my owner didn’t come to get me. After spending a day at the pound ,my current owner who has known me all my life came to my rescue. I was so happy to see her .I knew she would make things okay. She paid fines and claimed me as her own. She got me vaccinated, licensed, microchipped and neutered. Then shetook me to stay with her. She lives in a fairly small apartment and has three other dogs. She also has two cats so there wasn’t much space for me but she made it work. I had a bit of food aggression but can you blame me? I never knew when I would get my next meal so I defended every meal as if it were my last. Once I got used to having my two meals a day, I realized it would always be there so I got rid of my aggression. Although my food aggression was never towards people just other dogs, my owner did not like that. She even put me to the test and made me share my food with her other dog .I did okay. She was very proud of me. When I first came to live here ,I was very curious of the cats and liked to chase them but I quickly learned my lesson after getting clawed in the nose (Ouch). Now I leave the kitties alone. My owner says I’ve done a complete 180° and now I’m ready to find a forever home. I’m good with kids. My owner has three kids in our home ages are 3 yrs., 7 yrs. and 14 yrs. So I’m good with all ages. I’m also good with female dogs. I’m not sure how well I’ll do with male dogs because I currently live with only female dogs. The time I lived outdoors my job was to guard so I will protect my family with my life. I am a very big lap dog if given the chance, and all I ask for is food, water, love and a cozy indoor home. Do you think you can give me a FOREVER home?

WILL YOU GIVE ZEKIEL A HOME?
pit bull/mastiff; 11/2 years old;neutered and current shots; 65 lbs.and micro chipped. Zekeil has had a terrible puppy hood. He was used for "ring bait" (is mildly scarred),and then was to be drowned when a young woman rescued him and took him in as a house pet. After having him for 1 year, her landlord said the dog must go. The reason being that he is destructive when no one is home. Because of the abuse he suffered, he cannot be kept in a crate .However, when walked at least 2 times per day, he will not be destructive. The more exercise he has, the less anxiety he will have. Zekeil will be a wonderful companion, He is a real people dog, loves to sit on laps, and needs to sleep with a person. He is good with all dogs but does not like cats.He needs a 5 ft. or higher fenced yard,and people who will spend a lot of time with him . An adult home or a family with older kids ,would be best for him since he may knock over a little kid while kissing the child. . Please open your heart and home to a dog who had a rough start and deserves to live happily ever-after.
