Story
Meet Angus! He is a super sweet boy that came to our shelter as a stray and was never reclaimed by his family. Don't let his breed dissuade you! He is pretty calm despite being a Border Collie mix. He recently came back from the vet after his neuter and they had nothing but positive things to say about this boy! He can entertain himself by tossing and chasing toys around. He is very clean in his kennel, does not bark much and does well with kids, dogs and cats. If you're interested in meeting him he can be found at the Clarke County Animal Shelter in Osceola, IA. You won't regret coming to meet him!

Ace is my name, I am a sweet boy, maybe border collie/lab mix who has a way with words :) Barking that is!!! No I am not a serial barker, I am kind of a quiet guy, whose love you will see in my eyes, not in your ears :D I am such a good boy, I never want to end up on the streets like I was found, and this is where you come into the picture! I am ready for adoption! I am ready for you! I am ready to live my forever life with my forever family :) ADOPT.... DON'T SHOP!!! MY LIFE DEPENDS ON IT!!

Story
Absolutely! Let me introduce you to the wonderful dog named Cathy! Cathy is a social butterfly who loves to chat and interact with her human companions! 🐶💬 Cathy is a friendly and outgoing pup who gets along well with other dogs, making her the perfect playmate for your furry friends! 🐾🐶 However, she isn't a big fan of cats, so it's best to find a cat-free home for her. 😺❌🐾 She's also great on a leash and enjoys going for walks, exploring the world around her. Plus, Cathy is a loyal companion with good recall who loves to follow her person around and be part of the action! 🚶‍♀️🐾 Now, it's important to note that Cathy can get quite excited and may jump up when she's thrilled to see you. But with consistent training and a dedicated space, she has the potential to become calmer over time. 🙌🏼🏡 If you're looking for a dog who is dog-friendly, and ready to play, Cathy could be your perfect match! Get ready for endless adventures, loving companionship, and lots of tail wags with this enthusiastic and lovable pup! 🏡🐶❤️

Story
Meet Kage, the ultimate good boy who's just so darn cute! This gentleman is a pro at house living, fully potty trained, and a master at walking on a leash and harness. He's a social butterfly, getting along famously with other dogs and loving those backyard playdates with his pals. Kage is a stunning mix of Lab and Border Collie, the perfect blend of intelligence and family-friendliness. He's just the right size, like a mini Lab or a slightly larger Border Collie. When you find two fantastic things that go together like peanut butter and jelly, you celebrate! Kage is that winning combo, and now you can celebrate by making him a cherished member of your family. His temperament is pure gold - sweet as honey with everyone he meets. Now, here's the scoop: Kage is a special needs pup, and he's looking for someone who can be with him about 90 percent of the time. Storms, rain, and loud noises send him into severe panic attacks, and he's been known to chew through walls when anxiety strikes. Crates aren't his jam because of past storm-related trauma. He's also dealing with seizures, so he's on medication for that. Kage would thrive in a local adoption, and he's best as a single dog with no cats or small animals around. He's a wonderful companion for older kids, and he loves nothing more than cuddles and long walks. He's got the whole house training thing down too. His foster mom adores him and has prepared him for his forever family as best she can. Now, the ball is in your court. Remember, when you adopt Kage, you're not just bringing home a good boy; you're giving him the loving, understanding home he deserves. Don't shop, adopt, because Kage's life depends on it! Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $400 (includes transport to your area - $50 Temporary Fuel Charge will be added)

Story
Kiri was rescued from a backyard breeder as a puppy. She is a sweet dog but she is nervous around children, she's apprehensive of other dogs, and she's not very social. She knows several tricks and is super smart; she has a brooding attitude issue that we can't seem to work through. She'd be a fantastic dog for someone with more time and experience to give her. She gets along well with our 2 cats. She's crate trained and she's an energetic dog. I think she still has potential to work with kids and dogs, but we don't have the kind of time and energy she needs with our demanding jobs.
