Story
Meet Pepper: Your New Furry Best Friend! Pepper is a beautiful, active girl (born 2020) who loves to fetch and explore. She’s housebroken, crate trained, leash trained, and knows several basic commands. Under the right conditions, she’s playful, loyal, and ready to shower her person with affection. Personality & Traits Shy around new people, but warms up quickly Protective of her space and her human family Fetches enthusiastically and loves chew bones Barky at first greeting and can be vocal with excitement Nervous during thunderstorms or fireworks—finds comfort in a thunder coat and cozy hiding spot Training & Needs Housebroken and litter trained Crate trained for safe, calm downtime Needs a securely fenced yard to burn off energy safely Responds well to consistent training, positive reinforcement, and gentle leadership The Perfect Home for Pepper A household where she is the only dog A fenced yard for daily play and exercise Plenty of toys and chew bones to keep her mind and body busy A patient owner—ideally female—who can continue her training and provide a calm routine Someone prepared to help her manage noise sensitivities with a thunder coat, blankets, and safe spaces Ready to Welcome Pepper? If you’re seeking a devoted, smart companion who will love you fiercely, Pepper could be the one. Please reach out to schedule a meet-and-greet and learn more about her story. We’ll share everything we’ve learned and support you through the transition. Adoptions for Pepper are limited to the area within 50 miles of Omaha so that she can continue to take advantage of free training from our certified positive reinforcement trainers. The suggested adoption donation for Pepper is $375, which includes a lifetime of free relationship-based  training for any behavioral problems (not obedience training). Muddy Paws is a 501c3 non-profit organization meaning that part of your donation MAY be TAX DEDUCTIBLE. We are a 100% volunteer rescue committed to giving animals a second chance at life. All donations go toward that mission. Adoption fees are the primary source of funding for the cost of veterinary care for our animals. In 2022 alone, we provided animal Healthcare totaling over $399,000 covered mainly through adoption fees.  Please Note: A Courtesy Post designates that an animal is still in the home of its owner and not in a Muddy Paws foster.  This means that our exposure to the animal is limited since we only assist the owner in finding a new home for their  pet. From time to time, owners find a new furever home for their pets outside of Muddy Paws Last Chance Rescue, and there is a delay in removing them from our site. We apologize if the Courtesy Post you apply to adopt is  unavailable for adoption.  Information about the adoption process: All adoptions require a completed ADOPTION APPLICATION.  Once your application has completed our prescreen steps, we will put you in touch with the animal’s foster  to see if you and the pet are a good match. If so, we will arrange a meeting for you and the animal. The  adoptions for all of our animals will take place in the Omaha, NE area and must be done by the adoptive  family in person. We do not ship or deliver. Please Note: We are a RESCUE, which is different from a shelter. We conduct veterinary and personal  reference checks, and a Home Visit (Virtual in some cases) during the application approval process. We  always select the right applicant for each animal, based on the animal’s needs. If you and the animal are  not a good match, we will help you select another animal, or we will keep your approved application on file  for 6 months.  To learn about Muddy Paws Last Chance Rescue or donate to our animals, please visit our website at  MuddyPawsSecondChanceRescue.com or our Facebook Page Muddy Paws Second Chance Rescue  Inc.  ##2514098##

Story
Meet Remy – Your Loyal Ball of Love! Remy is a 4-year-old Collie mix with a heart as big as his fluffy coat (born 2021). This sweet boy may start off shy and cautious in new environments, but once he feels safe and comfortable, his true personality shines through—he’s a total lap dog, cuddle bug, and kisser who wants nothing more than to be close to his person. What Makes Remy Special Housebroken & Crate Trained – He’s got the basics down and thrives with routine. Leash Trained – Walks are a breeze, and he enjoys exploring at his own pace. Crazy Smart – Remy learns quickly and loves showing off the commands he knows. Fetch Fanatic – His absolute favorite game is fetch with his ball—this is the way to his heart! Protective & Loyal – He bonds deeply with his person and will always be by your side. Cuddly Companion – Once he trusts you, he transforms into the sweetest lap dog who loves kisses and snuggles. The Right Home for Remy Remy is looking for a calm, patient home where he can feel secure. He does best with women and would prefer a household without children, as their unpredictability makes him nervous. He’s not aggressive toward people, but he prefers to be the only pet since he can be protective of his food and toys around other dogs.  Remy might be okay with a male in the home if given time to warm up and build trust. Personality Notes Timid at first (specifically towards men) but blossoms into a loving, goofy sweetheart. May show submissive urination when nervous or excited—patience and reassurance help him feel safe. Active and playful, but also a devoted snuggler when it’s time to relax. Protective of his person, making him a loyal and trustworthy companion. Takes PRN medication before vet appointments and nail trims to help with stress. Remy isn’t just a dog—he’s a best friend waiting to happen. With patience, love, and plenty of fetch, he’ll reward you with unwavering loyalty, endless cuddles, and a bond like no other. The suggested adoption donation for Remy is $375, which includes a lifetime of free relationship-based training for any behavioral problems (not obedience training).
