Story
Hello meet Ace, he's a 5-year-old mixed breed who's extremely loving and affectionate. He is extremely well behaved and just wants love and affection. His ideal day is going for walks, car rides and laying beside you waiting for pets. He's as easy going and down for just about anything. He is extremely loving and loyal. Truly and amazing dog. Pros: Well-behaved and no destructive tendencies Potty trained with no accidents. Rarely barks other than when the Amazon person comes to the door :) Cons: Not ideal in a home with small dogs or cats. He has had some exposure but would still need more work. Some separation Anxiety. It breaks my heart to have to try to find him another home but do to scheduling changes and my dynamic work schedule. It has been a struggle for both me and him. He deserves a stable home environment and not getting bounced around as I try to navigate work. He is the sweetest dog and would be an OUTSTANDING companion in your home!

Adorable Mixed-Breed Puppies Looking for their Forever Homes!   Ready to add unconditional love (and some playful chaos) to your family? Our litter of mixed-breed puppies is ready for new homes! These happy pups have lovable personalities and unique fur patterns. They have been raised in a caring home - their playful and affectionate personalities are already prevalent.   These puppies are one step removed from being rescues - the mother was a stray that we adopted when she showed up on the porch the day after Christmas. We got a second wind of a Christmas miracle in January when we discovered she was pregnant! It has been quite the whirlwind to start 2026.   Litter Details: • 2 Brindle Females • 2 Brindle Males • 2 Brown Males • Mother Breed: Black Mouth Cur • Father Breed: Unknown • Current Age: 6 weeks • Birth Date: January 16th • Ready to go home date: March 13th (8 weeks old)

Hazel is an extremely sweet dog who is looking for her person. She gets along with other dogs but will prefer to spend her day with you. She knows sit and how to use the restroom outside. She loves to play and run around almost as she loves to nap right afterwards. She also finds car rides to be super fun.

Story
Apply at: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/IBRI/Dog DOB: 9/18/2025 Sex: Female Breed: Doberman/Dalmatian mix (per DNA results) Estimated Adult Weight: 60 - 70 lbs +\- Meet this gorgeous black beauty with adorable white patches on her chest. She is an incredibly sweet, gentle girl who truly wants to be a good dog. She’s wonderful in public settings and will sit right next to you while observing, amazing with other dogs and walks beautifully on leash without pulling - great at recall too! She doesn’t chase cats, listens well, can be redirected easily, and already responds to her name. She’s almost fully house-trained and, at night, she sleeps well in her crate. She is great with kids of all ages, loves to play fetch, chew on toys and run around, but she’s not mouthy at all—just happy and joyful energy. Maya is an amazing girl but will need a family that will keep her active. She loves going for hikes and playing with other dogs! Maya has a lot of potential but is still a puppy so will need a family that will exercise her, and will continue to work on training with her. She is fully vetted and ready to be someone’s loyal best friend. *All Itsie Bitsie Puppies are spayed/neutered, microchipped, started on vaccines, dewormed, and vet-checked. IBR requires landlord permission for renters and a yard check for all puppies. We do not adopt out siblings. Please allow volunteers a few days to look over applications. An adoption fee applies. Volunteers will CALL if your application is selected for a phone interview.
