Story
This dog is housetrained when following a consistent schedule and thrives on attention from people. He has a high energy level and often gets the "zoomies," showcasing his playful spirit. During playtime, he may give gentle, puppy-like nibbles. It’s important to note that he remains highly active and engaged when people are awake. He enjoys playing with ropes, has a penchant for destroying squeaky toys, and appreciates soft items. While he can be quite stubborn, with patience and guidance, he can learn and adapt well to his environment. The adoption fee of $100 is a refundable deposit. The adopter will be responsible to have the animal spayed or neutered within 90 days at the clinic of their choosing. If this is completed within the required 90 days the adopter is to submit required documentation that includes a spay/neuter certificate, a receipt for the spay/neuter, and a rabies certificate to get their refund of up to the deposited amount. Spay and Neuter is required for adoption per our adoption contract and by Indiana State Law. We do not require in most cases that adopters bring all their families members and dogs for a meet and greet. But we do highly encourage it. We are happy to introduce the new dog to your dog(s) at the shelter. No appointment necessary. We do offer home trials of dogs over 6 months of age for about a week. You will not need to pay the adoption fee (spay neuter deposit) ahead of time, but if you decide to adopt you will need to return to the shelter to complete the paperwork and pay the adoption deposit. If you do not wish to complete the adoption, you can bring the dog back at any time during normal business hours during your home trial period.

Story
Rilee is an AMAZING dog. She is full of love, cuddles and more cuddles. She is high energy but also so so lazy. She is a BIG girl, and she definitely doesnt know it. She is the goofiest dog you will ever meet, she will have you laughing all day long. She is a good camper and adventure dog. She listens well, although she is skiddish and afraid of a new people and things initially. Because of another male dog in the home, she is caged a lot. This doesnt bode well with her energy or need for interaction. She has had some moments of aggression outside the home, and recently she has started to turn some towards Lola, my other female dog. It is unclear what triggers her, she is full of energy and I think she just gets overstimulated. Although she has never showed aggression towards humans, we have a toddler and with moments of being unpredictable, we have made the very tough decision to rehome. Rilee is so easy to love, contact me 3179992431 for more info and pics

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
I am trying to rehome my boxer, Piper. She is about 8 years old and still very full of life. She would do best in a single person or retired couple home without young children or other pets. She is very jealous and wants to be the center of attention, preferably a man's attention. She does not do well with other dogs and has had altercations in the past with a dog in our extended family. We are sad to rehome her but she is not doing well with our growing family and we want her to be happy with a person who can dote on her. Current location is Indianapolis, IN.
