Lulu

Australian Shepherd Cattle Dog

Female, 5 yrs 2 mos

Danbury, CT

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Ms Lulu is quite the character! She is happy and funny and Loves to run and run. When she stops, she stops! She took over the house and yard the first day protecting and keeping all threats away from the fence. She is a snuggler and will sit on the couch and sleep in the big person bed or an open crate. She does prowl and protect through the night. She is house trained and uses a doggy door. Lulu is okay with small dogs but maybe no dog under 20lbs until proper intros are made - otherwise male or female dogs are fine. No idea about cats. She is a cattle dog and seems as if she may have been trained to herd beyond what comes natural? She got out of the gate once and was fine with the goat and chickens. Cattle and horses would be safe. She is an active working dog who would love an active lifestyle if you can provide it. She loves the water too. She will herd children by nipping on their heels so maybe a bit older children who understand that's just what her breed does and won't cry. She does pretty well on a leash, rides in the car like a pro, loves puppies because she was a mom a time or two. Her tongue hangs out and her jaw is a bit off (maybe birth defect or an injury) but it does not affect her appetite! She is spayed, HW negative and up to date on shots. Lulu is a really sweet dog and wants a home of her own. please apply at www.krrtx.org/forms Please note Lulu is in San Antonio, TX and is available to be transported to your location with Your TX Rescue Connection transport. The fee includes adoption and transportation fee.

Ares

Boxer American Pit Bull Terrier

Danbury, CT

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Ares is a two year old Pit Bull Boxer mix born on April 2, 2023 and he is SUCH a sweet boy. He is very affectionate very cuddly and honestly just wants to be by your side all the time. He really doesn’t like being alone and feels best when he’s close to his person whether that’s going outside together or just laying down for a nap nearby. He is extremely smart, very observant and very protective of the people he loves. He forms strong bonds and loves hard. He does well with kids but would need to be the only dog in the home. I’m not sure how he is with cats. Ares can be anxious and get stressed easily but he is very obedient and easy to handle with patience and love. He has so much potential and growing with the right guidance and especially the right training and someone willing to put time into him. This decision is being made with his best interest at heart and I just want him to go to a home where he is truly loved and cared for because he has so much love to give.

Hazelnut

Pointer Pit Bull Terrier

Female, 2 yrs 6 mos

Bethel, CT

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet Hazelnut, an adorable nine-month-old, 45 lb. pointer mix with the cutest speckle coat and big pointy ears. She was found roaming in a field in Texas with a shih tzu (adopted) a few months ago. She’s currently in Texas awaiting an adopter or foster so she can travel up north to find her furever family! Hazelnut is a high energy girl ready to be the life of the party! She is active, loves to play, can't get enough of her toys, and absolutely loves other dogs. She'd be thrilled to have a doggy companion in her furever home. She's super sweet and never says no to a snuggle. Hazelnut is fine around the kids but may knock a young one down so older children are recommended due to her exuberance. Due to living on the streets, she has never had training before so she'll need someone to guide and teach her basic manners and obedience. A home with a fenced yard is a must. Hazelnut will make a wonderful addition to any home! Her adoption fee is $450 and she is vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm negative, and spayed. If you are interested in Hazelnut, please complete the application at form.jotform.com/200883908893166. For questions, email info@happilyfureverafter.org.

Details

Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

This adorable little girl is Bella. She is a one-year old dachshund mix and weighs just 13 lb. Bella is at a foster home, not at our shelter. Her foster says "Bella is very shy and takes some time to warm up to her person. She is very inquisitive and prefers to be inside. She does well with pee pads and can stay home alone for periods of time. Bella plays well by herself." Bella's ideal home is with a single woman who she can connect with and become that person's little doll. Bella is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped and healthy. Her adoption fee is $400. If you would like to meet/adopt Bella, please complete our online application at https://daws.org/daws-forms. Email daws@daws.org with questions.

Orca

American Staffordshire Terrier

Female, 7 yrs 1 mo

Bethel, CT

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet Orca, a 7-year-old, 37 lb. terrier mix has a heart as big as her smile. As the longest resident in a rural shelter, waiting over three months for her chance at a happily furever after, we knew we had to scoop her up and help her find the life she’s always deserved. Orca is pure joy wrapped in fur. She is friendly with everyone she meets, loves to play, and has plenty of energy—proving that age is truly just a number. She’s incredibly affectionate and happiest when she’s close to her people—whether she’s soaking up belly rubs, leaning in for cuddles, or trying her best to make everyone her new best friend. She was previously in a foster home with children and another dog and while she did ok, older kids and a more submissive dog would be the best match for her. She has never been around cats. A fenced in yard is a must for her. Orca would benefit from some basic training, including polite manners around other dogs and working on jumping when she’s excited. She also tends to have a lot of pent up anxiety and transitions have proven difficult for her so she needs someone experienced and patient. With consistency and guidance, she’ll thrive and shine. Her adoption fee is $425 and Orca is vaccinated, microchipped and spayed, and recently underwent heartworm treatment but has since tested negative. Interested in giving this special girl the life she deserves? Apply today at form.jotform.com/200883908893166.
