Rio is a gentle, loving dog. She is good with strangers and will sit quietly for pets. When she visited a nursing home she was so gentle visiting the residents. When they called her over she gently put her head on their lap to be pet or rolled onto her back to show her belly for rubs. Rio enjoys the outside for adventures, hikes, and playing with other dogs. She would love an owner who also enjoys outdoor activities. She does need a little work on leash as she pulls. Rio is housetrained and is quiet in the home. If you invite her onto the sofa for cuddles she will indulge you. She sleeps quietly all night on her dog bed or is content to be in a crate if needed. She enjoys car rides and will sit quietly on the back seat. Rio can get a little excited and mouthy if she is playing tug with a human. She is very sweet meeting children and is gentle with them. Rio's ideal home would have a nice back yard for her to play in or a ranch. She is good offleash on acreage and comes when called. An owner who enjoys hiking, exploring, camping. Another friendly dog would be a plus, but she could also be an only dog if she had dog friends to play with. Rio is 2 years old and weighs 58lbs. She is spayed, vaccinated and microchipped.
Barney is quite a character. He is build like a little tank. He is like a bull in a china shop when he plays or does the zoomies. He sounds like a herd of elephants. When he plays with another dog he loves to check them with his butt. (see video) He loves to ride in the car and sits still on the back seat. If he knows he is going somewhere like the park it sounds like you may have a little pig in the back. He snorts, grunts and squeals as he can't contain his excitement. Barneys favorite thing is to go for walks. He walks at a brisk clip and is a boy on a mission. You do have to keep your eyes open as he can be a tripping hazard. He will walk and something will catch his attention. He will continue to walk, while looking at the object, unaware he is no longer walking in a straight line...lol Barney is a senior at 10 years old but acts more like a 5 year old. He does have selective hearing. If you ask him if he wants to eat or go for a walk he is all ears. If you ask him to go to bed and he's busy playing with his toys, he is as deaf as a door knob. ???? Barney also doesn't realize he is a big boy and will ask to sit on your lap. If you tell him no he will obey. Barney is good with dogs but doesn't care for cats. Barney needs a strong person as he is a strong boy. Someone who will continue to watch his diet so he can loose a little weight. Someone who will take him for a walk. He would love a fenced back yard to hang out in and run around.

He is used to being a lap dog. He is house trained. He hasn't been walked much on leash in his life so he will need some work with this. He weighs 25lbs.
