1. GRACIE: An older lady who is pretty, well-mannered and asks only for a home with good care and lots of pets and companionship. She's a nice-sized lab/dutch shepherd mix and her markings are very interesting and beautiful. She is mellow, friendly and likely is house-trained..
2. DIEGO: Someone allowed this boy to be afflicted with mange for almost a year. The mange is demodectic and is not contagious to other dogs or humans; he is healing nicely. About 11 months old, he will be stunning when his blue and white coat is filled in. Playful and eager to be involved in anything and everything, he's ready for a human friend who will love and care for him for the rest of his life. Diego can't wait!
3. VICKY: Sweet, gorgeous, lovely lady who is looking for a gentle, patient person to be her best friend. She's a sensitive, slender and hopeful girl about six years old who wants to give her heart over to a good friend. She just needs to have time to learn that it is safe to do so. She is medium-sized.
4. SHARON: Sweet, nice girl who is well-mannered and easy to have around. She's some 6-7 years old so is pretty settled. She already knows basic commands and is eager to please. She has a zest for life and loves to be out and about, doing what her humans are doing. Come meet this smaller “pitty” mix soon and see if she isn't just right for your family.
