• “I’m Ninja, a 10 year young German Shepherd who loves his people and his pack. Crunchy on the outside, but squishy on the inside. I enjoy a good meal, a ball, the car, the beach, and naps. In that order. I’m a good tracker, know some fun tricks, will work for food, and listen well to my humans.“

  — Kimberly D.

• “Some people think I have something called a “Napoleon syndrome” but they just don’t understand me. Just because I’m little doesn’t mean I can’t hold my own. I’m getting older and have little patience for the new pups, especially the big chunky one.“

• “I am a 100 pound lab mix and a total mama's boy. I love living on our mini farm!! Mom says I'm a good boy as I treat our free range chickens well. I know they lay eggs...I love when mom cooks me an egg. I will take a moment to warm up to new people/dogs but I behave well once I get to sniff you. I am very mild mannered and will never jump up on people. Mommy says I'm the most handsome boy in the world. ❤“
