Story
“Blue” our border collie needs a new home. We are moving and he needs a family or single owner who could give him lots of love. Blue is 3 yrs old and up to date with vaccines and intact but not dominant. He is used to living in a fenced yard but is house trained and never has any potty accidents (even over night or for hours during the day). He knows commands and listens well. Enthusiastic, yet can lay down or go to a kennel / dog house/ etc and spend time there. He is friendly with children, visitors, and other dogs. Unknown about cats.

Story
Available for Adoption – Cooper 11-Year-Old Senior Male Pom MixNeutered • Current on Rabies, Bordetella & DHPP • Dewormed • MicrochippedAdoption Fee: $100 Cooper is searching for a soft place to land and spend his golden years surrounded by love. This adorable little Pom mix came through the Furry Farm doors through no fault of his own after his family experienced a tragic accident and could no longer care for him. Cooper is the definition of companion dog. He loves short walks, belly rubs, and finding the coziest spot on the couch — preferably buried under a pile of pillows! He’s incredibly loving and loyal, following his person everywhere they go. This sweet senior is 100% potty trained, rides great in the car, and gets along wonderfully with dogs of all sizes, cats, and kids. He crates “okay,” but if Cooper had his choice, he’d much rather be curled up beside you on the couch. Like many of us, Cooper has never missed a snack in his life and could benefit from regular walks to help shed a few extra pounds! Cooper also recently had an extensive dental procedure completed. Following our veterinarian’s recommendation, he will need annual dental cleanings moving forward to help maintain his overall health. If you’re looking for a gentle, affectionate best friend to share your days with, Cooper may just be your perfect match. ##2710754##

Story
Available for Adoption - Foster to Adopt   Nia needs a soft spot to land, and we would love if it could be her forever home. After the trials and tribulations this young pupper has suffered, it would be lovely to have her find he people and learn how to be a dog.   The Underdog Railroad came to her rescue, when she was brought into the shelter with her leg ripped half off from getting hit by the train. Knowing she was suffering, Cara whisked her off to the ER vet for an amputation. We said yes to the mess, and Miss Nia is getting ready for transport this coming weekend.   She is current on vaccinations, dewormed, Heart Worm tested Negative, Microchipped and ready to come snuggle with you. We will place her into your home with our foster to adopt program, so we can finish up her medical needs, including spay. Nia's life before is unknown, but she is showing us just how much resilience dogs have. We see so much potential in her. Her ideal home is likely with other medium to large dogs, but probably best to steer clear of homes with small pets, like cats or ferrets.  At somewhere close to 9mo of age this 31lb sweetheart will likely be an ideal medium sized doggo. Adoption fee is $200 If Nia has captured your attention today, maybe slip us an adoption application for this cutie on the mend. Adopting a tripod really is no different than a 4 legged canine, she will be a 100% soon! ##2744949##

Story
Hi! I am a 2 year old pup from Rexburg. I'm energetic, playful, cuddly, and very loyal once I bond with my person. I love sleeping in bed with my humans, playing with other dogs my size, and staying close to my family. I have lots of energy, so I'd really love a home with a securely fenced yard where I can run around and explore safely.I can get anxious and protective sometimes, especially when I am on a leash or around high-value things like food or toys. Because of that, I've had minor nips and one bite incident during a stressful territorial situation while restrained on a leash where I felt super trapped. The adult I bit was okay (no stitches), but my family wants to be honest so I can find the right home.I would do best with experienced adults who understand dog boundaries, probably no small children. I'm smart, trainable, protective, very loving when I feel safe and understood. With patience, consistency, exercise, and the right environment, I would be the most loyal companion.

Story
Bailey really is sweet girl, she loves affection and being close to people, good with respectful kids, she hates getting groomed and her nails cut. She is a high anxiety dog and does not like being alone, loud noises or touching her feet. She’s been good with some dogs but it can be a problem when she tries to herd others. She’s walks great on a leash and does not pull. She’s loves chasing lasers like a cat. She is crate trained and know basic commands, and takes food gently.
