Story

We bought her on Craigslist when she was around 2 months old. Have had her ever since. She is now 6 years old and is an Australian Kelpie mix we believe, around 42lbs. She is very energetic and requires either a fenced in back yard or will need to be taken on walks daily. She has not been exposed to dog parks, so we do not know how she would react. The only medical issue she has had was a sprained shoulders few years ago but it doesn’t seem to have hindered any movement.

Story

We adopted him from the humane society and have had for about 2 years. He is 3 years old. Ghost is very rowdy and he’s not trained, but he’s good with kids and doesn’t bite. He loves to go swimming and just to run. The home we are looking for is someone who is able to give him lots of love and time to do all the things he loves.

Story

Bentley is so loving and loyal. He is so chilled but alerts you when someone is approaching the house - a true protector. He has been the love of my life for 9 years since his birth and unfortunately my job is requiring me to travel abroad and Bentley needs a stable loving parent and/or family. He is motivated by snacks - his favorite is sweet potato doggie treats. He loves to play - wants you to pretend you’re taking his favorite toy away from him - he loves it! I feel so loved and safe in his presence and you will to. He deserves the absolute best parent(s) who can give him the love and care.

Story

Hi there, I'm Berkeley!I am one year old, and currently live in a home with a mom, a dad, a sister, two brothers, and another dog! I lived the first year of my life at a dog rescue and did not get to do too much, so things in the big world tend to scare me a little. I'm taking medicine now to help with that. Because I was only cared for by women, I am particularly scared of men!When I started living with my family, I was not trained at all. Now I only go potty outside, I can sit, stay, shake and I'm learning to roll over.I LOVE treats. Love them. Would do anything for them. I also love to run and play outside. Or inside. I'm not picky. I love kids. I'm very timid but since I'm a puppy, I also love to play! I am definitely a ladies man, but other dogs are also my best buds. It's just men who really frighten me. If I sound like the dog for you, contact my mom. Thanks!There is no adoption fee for Berkeley. There was no option for $0. We just want Berkeley to go to a good home.
