Story

Rocky is an energetic, happy, purebred Labrador (American). He is AKC registered and up to date on all of his vaccines. My husband and I got him when he was 12 weeks old in California. He is a very fun 3-year-old dog, but we are unable to keep him since having our first child. Rocky would be a fantastic bird-dog. He thrives off of being given commands and playing fetch. He is a wonderful protector and barks when people pull in our driveway, but never gets viscous with anyone. We love Rocky so much and are so sad to give him away, but we know he will have a better life with someone else who is able to give him the attention he deserves.

Story

We've had Oreo for just at six months now. He's been a great pup and has been fantastic with my two young girls. He usually does well on walks and has a great temperament overall - he isn't overly hyper but has plenty of energy when you want to play with him. The only possible concern to be aware of is that he currently doesn't seem comfortable around other dogs. I was going to have him trained to overcome this, but now I'm not going to since he's going to be rehomed. My reason for rehoming is that I discovered the hard way that I have severe dog allergies (this is my first dog). Additionally my job situation has changed and soon I won't have as much time to give him the attention he deserves. Please reach out with any questions at all!

Courtesy Post: Owner Surrender/Rehoming- Edinburgh, IN Meet Zoey! She is an 2 year old Australian Shepherd and weighs 46 lbs. She is spayed, up to date on shots, and on heartworm prevention. Zoey is nervous around strangers! She is good with kids and cats! No dogs, due to her reactivity! She is housebroken, but isn’t crate-trained. The owner is surrendering her because she starts fights with their other dog. She needs to find a new furever home as soon as possible! If you think you can provide a great home for Zoey, please contact the owner listed below. There is a $150 rehoming fee to assure good folks with good intentions. This fee will be donated to Australian Shepherds Furever for their assistance in placing Zoey. Owner’s Contact Information: Laura at laura.adair9815@gmail.com.

Story

12 puppies were born at our rescue on Easter Day. 3 puppies are still available. They all have Easter names.  Their mom Ga Ga came from a breeder that was closing down. After she arrived here we realized she was pregnant.  This small breeder bred Portuguese Water Dogs exclusively and had one male stud so we know who the father is.  PWD's are active . they need long daily walks and play sessions with their owner. This wonderful breed also exercises mind and body by participating in canine sports such as obedience, tracking, agility, rally, dock diving.  Please visit Ga Ga's Puppy Page for more videos and information before putting in an application.  Fluffy is wearing the Dark Red collar in the videos https://indianasaveadog.com/ga-gas-puppy-page Puppies can leave for adoption at 8-9 weeks old after May 26th . Adoption Criteria: They must have a fenced in back yard, no invisible fences. If you live in a condominium or subdivision and HOA does not allow fences, leash walking will be considered. If you live in the country, or your subdivision allows fences you will need a fence.  Due to the needs of puppies, we will require adopters have an adult home during the day so the puppy is provided with companionship while continuing to work on training and socialization. We are looking for adopters who understand the training, exercise & socialization needs of puppies.. Children in the household must be 8 years of age or older. Please read our adoption criteria on our adoption info page. We will consider adoptions out of state, however we will not transport or ship. Once your application is approved, you can submit a $50 deposit to hold him/her.  ##2038380##
