The lavish place is part of the HunaneSociety/Dog-pound, -but they evaluate each dog for sociability, and dogs like your would pass with flying-colors and have a home for life! However, that's here, and you're elsewhere, --so am thinking that if you place a free-Ad on the ubiquitous [ www.craigslist.org ] under 'community ' then under 'pets ', that you will find a great home(s). Caution: -absolutely do NOT say the dog(s) are free to a good home; --sadly there are some vile people out there that will harm animals! Instead, merely charge something like say $20/ea, --believe me, if they are sincere they will readily come through for you (be sure to include their pictures); -then if you are totally convinced the prospective new-owner is right for your pet(s), then you can if you wish hand them back the $ they eagerly offer you...

Robair, thank you so much. I hadn't thought of Craigslist because the nearest city they have to here is Nashville so I rarely ever go to Craigslist.
I am trying in this area but the local paper hasn't published yet. And you're right, I knew better than to offer them free to a good home. They have to pass my approval first. These aren't just any dogs, they're a huge part of our family.
Thank you so much for your suggestion and for thinking of us.
