Story
Ruster | 1.5 year-old Neutered Male Boxer Mix Ruster came to foster care in December after an urgent rescue from the shelter where he was shut down and struggling with stress. His journey hasn’t been easy—prior to rescue, Ruster spent 28 days on the loose before being safely contained by Peaceful Souls. Because of this history, secure handling and management are imperative for him. In a home setting, Ruster has shown himself to be a sweet, gentle, and quiet dog who truly wants to do well. He sleeps calmly in a crate all night and when left alone, has had zero accidents in his foster home, and will stand by the door when he needs to go out. He meets new people nicely, is not jumpy, and settles easily once he feels safe. Ruster enjoys car rides, quiet nature walks, and has even shown confidence in busier environments—successfully touring a large retail store and relaxing at a brewery with his foster parents. He’s playful in appropriate ways and loves tug-of-war and shredding stuffies. He is dog-social and does best with respectful, non-pushy dogs. Overly forward dogs can make him uncomfortable. Ruster is currently doing well with dog-savvy cats with slow, supervised introductions. Due to his background, Ruster is a flight risk and must always be walked using a correctly fitting martingale collar and/or a secure harness setup. He can pull on the leash at times, so an adopter who understands safety protocols and is committed to secure management is essential. Ruster is a sensitive, thoughtful dog who has proven that with structure, patience, and clear boundaries, he can thrive. He’s looking for a home that values management, advocacy, and calm leadership—and in return, he’ll offer quiet companionship, affection, and a deep bond. ##2614827##

Story
Hank is an 8-year-old sweetheart with a calm, confident presence and a heart made for snuggling. Described as affectionate, chill, and delightfully lazy, Hank is the kind of dog who’s happiest lounging nearby, soaking up love, and keeping life low-key. He’s friendly, easygoing, and a total cuddle bug—an ideal companion for someone who appreciates a relaxed pace. Behaviorally, Hank is a dream. He’s consistently calm and easy to handle, with relaxed body language and loose tail wags during exams and procedures. He tolerates handling well and enjoys human attention, making him a wonderful candidate for a quiet, loving home. Hank does have ongoing medical needs that require follow-up care outside of the shelter. He is significantly overweight, which contributes to stiffness and overall health strain. Initial bloodwork showed signs consistent with inflammation and a low thyroid value (which may indicate an underlying thyroid condition and needs further testing), as well as low platelets that may be due to sample artifact and require confirmation. His chemistry values were otherwise unremarkable. On physical exam, Hank was noted to have dental disease, heavy shedding, overgrown nails, mild skin changes on his joints, and debris in his ears—findings that suggest chronic care needs best managed in a home with a veterinarian. Indianapolis Animal Care Services does not currently have an on-site veterinarian, and with limited resources, advanced diagnostics and ongoing medical care cannot be provided in-house. Hank would truly benefit from an adopter or rescue partner who can help him get the medical attention he needs and support him on a healthy, comfortable path forward. If you’re looking for a sweet, snuggly senior who gives love freely and asks for little more than comfort, patience, and care, Hank could be your perfect match. Adoptions are free and include support from our adoption team to ensure a smooth transition from the shelter to your home. Adopted pets are vaccinated, microchipped, and spayed/neutered before leaving with you. To view our current available animals, please visit: https://indy.gov/activity/adopt-a-pet.

🖤 Draco is ready for his forever 🖤 Draco is looking for an urgent foster or adopter! 🙏🏼 Draco isn’t only the loyal dog everybody wants, but he is determined to be your best friend for life no matter what. Dogs never seem to fail humans but yet so many are failed by owners. Draco is ready to have a furever home where he won’t be failed! Draco is a great dog who loves to snuggle on the couch with his person and give you plenty of kisses. He enjoys running outside and playing with his abundance of toys. He also enjoys a big backyard to run in when he gets the zoomies. Unfortunately many would look past him because of his coloring, but I think it makes him stand out even more. I have truly enjoyed taking care of this precious soul, he is such a joyful dog and will make someone very happy! He is hard of hearing so when you want to get his attention I either squeak a toy or I wave to him to come. This treat motivated boy will make the perfect dog for someone who is willing to give him the chance he needs. Quick facts ⬇️ •5 year old male pitbull •Dog friendly; cat selective •Fully vaccinated, microchipped, and fixed •Hearing impaired •Energetic and loves jolly balls •Loves to snuggle 📝 Foster application: https://form.jotform.com/secondchancespetsanctuarytx/Second-Chances-Foster-Application 📝 Adoption application: https://form.jotform.com/secondchancespetsanctuarytx/Second-Chances-Adoption-Application 📍 Currently being fostered in Fort Wayne, IN Foster or adopter in the Midwest needed!
