Missy - 1.5 years old german shepherd mix
Chopper - 6 months old aussie/lab mix
Missy is fully potty trained. Chopper is still in training and currently goes outside every 3-4 hours.
Both are extremely friendly. They do like to bark when they hear the neighbors’ cars or when someone is at the door. Both love cuddles.
Missy is crate trained, Chopper is still in training.
I recently got out of an engagement and can’t afford to take care of them or give them the time they need to play. They’re both great dogs and need to go to someone who can really care for them. They can not be separated.
