Story
Greetings, my name is Garth! I'm a 3-year-old male border collie mix. I am current on my vaccines, heartworm tested, neutered, and microchipped. 3 words that describe me: Sweetheart, Smart, Playful Things staff and volunteers have to say about me: I'm a loving guy who greets the world with a smile! I can be a little shy when meeting new people, but it doesn't take me too long to warm up to them. I'm super playful and love toys of all kinds, though I seem to favor balls. With that being said I am a hard chewer so I will need some strong toys! Activity level/Energy Level: (1-10): 6 or 7/10 Housetraining Status: I have been good at keeping my kennel clean, although it may take me some time to adjust to a new schedule. I should do well in a home: I will need to meet any dogs in my potential home before adoption. I should do well with children of all ages given proper supervision. My friends at CRHS are unsure how I'd do with cats. My favorite activities are: Playing with toys!!!! I love cuddling my humans and getting affection from them as well. Things I need work on are: I could use a little more work with my basic commands and leash walking. Any special needs: N/A Doggy day out notes: "Garth did well with everything and everyone he encountered. He was neutral to everything around him, we even walked past a large group of ducks and he just looked and kept walking. His leash walking skills are great! He doesn’t pull and is easily redirected. He seems to be handler focused for the amount of time that we got to know him, and eager to please. He LOVED the flirt pole, we played with that for a while and he was super excited the whole time. Garth did so well overall and I think he’d be great in just about any home. He was so content hanging out, but willing to get up and run around/play too!" "Garth did so well today. He settled right in and played with some toys and napped. We went for a walk around riverside park and to pearl street books where he enjoyed meeting all the new people. I really enjoyed spending the afternoon with him and I know he will make an excellent companion for someone!" "Garth is truly a special little guy! He needs to build some confidence and is definitely a little nervous at times, but he warms up to people really quick and is super affectionate and becomes very mellow when he gets pets and belly scratches. He is very smart and highly trainable! Was almost 100% with Sit and lay down and we started practicing “look at me!” on walks which he was very receptive to and by the end of the day he would look at me to check in whenever a new person entered. He does need a bit of leash training but was pulling less by the end of the day. He is playful and has energy but was also very calm and patient just hanging out in my office for a while!" "Garth was awesome! Liked riding in the truck, hiking, and playing in the dog park. Interacted well with everything and everyone we encountered. Listened well and walked on leash without pulling, and loved being outside. Very loving easy-going personality. A joy to be around." Daycare Status: N/A My adoption fee is: $300 Training Requirement if applicable: N/A *If you are interested in adopting, please start by filling out an application available on our website and email it to us. https://www.couleehumane.com/adopt-an-animal

Story
Meet Valerie! Valerie is approximately 7-8 years old and is thought to be a possible Border Collie mix. Valerie was found as a stray and no one came to claim her, which breaks our heart because she is the sweetest, happiest girl who loves people! Because of her circumstances, we don't know what her life was like prior to being found and we're simply learning about her as we go. Valerie is polite and well mannered. She is great in her kennel and loves her dog bed. She also keeps her kennel clean and waits to potty until she goes outside, so we think she's potty trained. She walks well on leash and greets everyone with a wagging tail! Valerie should do well around other pets & children as long as everyone is properly introduced and supervised. Because we don't know her past with other animals, we recommend taking things slow while she adjusts to all of the new information. So far, Valerie seems to be an easy-to-please girl who enjoys being by people more than anything! She has a nice moderate energy level so she'll enjoy a daily leisurely stroll with you, but won't ask you to run a marathon. As long as you give her a belly rub every day and let her snore on a cushy dog bed, she'll be happy! We are doing all meet n' greets BY APPOINTMENT ONLY after an adoption application has been generally approved: https://monroecountydogshelter.com/apply-adopt.html Valerie will be fully vaccinated & spayed prior to adoption. Her adoption fee is $200

Story
Meet Demi 💕 Demi has grown into a spunky, joy-filled little lady bursting with personality, zoomies, and pure happiness. She’s wildly curious about every animal she meets and honestly believes the world is one big playground made just for her. Dogs, cats, kids — she’s never met a friend she didn’t want to make. Demi would absolutely love another dog sibling to wrestle, romp, and burn off some of that adorable puppy energy with. She’s playful, loyal, and happiest right in the middle of whatever you’re doing… yes, even bathroom trips. Privacy is not her thing. Demi would make an amazing adventure buddy for hikes, park days, or neighborhood strolls where she can proudly show off her cuteness and soak up attention. She’s working hard on crate and potty training and continues to improve with consistency. Demi is the kind of pup who brings laughter, love, and nonstop tail wags into a home. If you’re ready for a fun-loving shadow with four paws who will run straight into your heart and probably your lap, she’s your girl.

Story
Hi there, my name is Tigger! I am a 6-year-old neutered male. I am current on my vaccines, heartworm negative and microchipped!! 3 words that describe me: Playful, content, loyal. Things Tiggers foster has to say about him: A very low key and easy boy. He gets along great with our dogs and is very respectful of our cats. He bonds very quickly with new people and will be your constant shadow. He would prefer to sleep in bed with his people but has settled for a crate next to the bed. He can be nervous/unsure in new situations and seeks reassurance from his people. Tigger is incredibly affectionate, giving hugs and kisses and he’ll nudge your hand if you’re not providing enough pets. He’s very content to spend all day lounging around when needed which is great since nobody wants to be outside in this weather! Activity level/Energy Level: (1-10): 6 or 7/10 Housetraining Status: With a consistent routine, my foster mom says I am fully potty trained! I should do well in a home: Due to my timid personality, any children in my potential home will need to be 8 years or older. I am required to meet any and all dogs in the household before adoption. I ignored the cats in my previous home. My favorite activities are: Going for walks, playing fetch, and cuddling! Things I need work on are: My foster says I'm already pretty perfect but, I am a smart guy and could always learn new tricks! Any special needs: N/A Doggy day out notes: "Tigger did super on his DD outing! He loved being out and exploring the great outdoors! He is a bit shy but once he warms up to you, which is quick, your his favorite person and loves your company! I have no doubt that he will thrive in a home setting. Love this boy💙" "Tigger did amazing on his DD outing! This was his 2nd outing with me and was more comfortable being out and around me. Tigger likes calm, quiet environments and going to places with very little activity. He is alot of fun getting to know and he I would love to see him out on more outings with other volunteers. That would be good for him💙" " Tigger did amazing on his DD outing! Such a sweet, mellow boy. He loved to be back at the house just lounging & napping but when it was time for a walk he was excited! He loves being out on walks! Tigger likes quiet, calm places to hang out at with little to no activity so he thoroughly enjoyed time spent at the house. Tigger is a bit shy but once he warms up to you he loves being near you enjoying your company. Love this little guy and he will make a very nice addition to a home💙" My adoption fee is: $300 *If you are interested in adopting, please start by filling out an application available on our website and email it to us. https://www.couleehumane.com/adopt-an-animal
