Our owner is moving and we need new homes!

We are two guys who love to hang out with people and play ball. Because there is an eight-year difference between us, we highlight all the great things about both old and young dogs.

Rome is a spry young guy with lots of energy who catches on quickly to positive clicker training, and Calypso is a laid-back gentleman who is happy walking beside you with a ball in his mouth. We learn from each other and are happiest when we're together. We both know some commands, but will excel with obedience classes that will sharpen up our manners. Do you have room in your heart for us?
