After a lot of thought, we've realized that with a toddler, another baby on the way, full-time jobs, and a difficult pregnancy, we can't give Willow the time, exercise, and consistency she deserves. We love her deeply, but we want what's best for her.We're not in a rush. Our priority is finding the right home where she'll be loved and thrive.Willow• Australian Shepherd/Lab mix (born March 9, 2023)• Spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines• Sweet, affectionate, loves kids and has lived with cats• Kennel trained due to separation anxiety• Completed Sit Means Sit training and does well with consistency but currently we’ve been out of practice - has a weird scream bark when overly excited like when going on walksIf we rehome her, it will only be to a loving, active home.

Story
We love our dogs deeply, but with a toddler, another baby on the way, full-time jobs, and a difficult pregnancy, we can't give them the time and activity they deserve. We want what's best for them, even though it's heartbreaking. We're not in a rush. Our priority is finding the right home, together or separately, where they'll be loved and thrive. Would love him to be rehomed with our other dog, Willow, but will separate for the right homes. Riddley • Border Collie (born Dec. 28, 2021) • Microchipped, up to date on vaccines, not neutered • Raised with cats and small children • Goofy, affectionate, and high-energy (hops in place every time he sees a cat from excitement) • Kennel trained due to separation anxiety • Thrives with plenty of exercise and mental stimulation • Diet is Wholesomes sensitive skin & stomach for sensitive skin issues If we rehome Riddley, it will only be to a loving, active home. We ask that if it ever isn't the right fit, he's returned to us.

Story
Meet Elsa!This 35-pound bundle of joy has made a full recovery from a broken humerus and is now ready to leap into the heart of her forever family! At about 2 years old, Elsa is all fun, play, and personality. Elsa does well with other dogs once she gets to know them, especially if they respect her space. She is not interested in playing with other dogs and prefers they leave her alone. She would much prefers human companionship once she gets to know you. She has a strong prey drive, though she appears to do well with cats in the home. One thing she absolutely cannot live without is her beloved toys. Whether she’s chasing a stick like the champion retriever she is or curling up after a long day of fun, Elsa brings joy wherever she goes. She is 1000% Heeler in both personality and traits. Elsa can be wary of new people at first and needs a patient adopter who will give her the time and space to adjust. Once she trusts you, she loves deeply and loyally for life. Because she takes time to settle in and feel secure, a calm, quieter home would suit her best. A busy household is not ideal, and homes with young children are not recommended. Elsa is housebroken, crate trained, and up to date on all her vetting: Rabies Spayed DHPPV Bordetella Microchip Deworming Adoption fee: $200Ready to add some sparkle and spunk to your life? Elsa’s waiting to meet you!   Furry Farm Rescue, established in 2017, is a foster home style rescue group in North Idaho.

Story
Available for Adoption - Nia   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.  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
Available for Adoption — The Camping Litter! Meet River (F), Oakley (F), S’more (M), and Pinecone (M) — four stinkin’ cute puppies ready to pack their little bags and head off to outstanding forever homes! These pups are adorable, sweet, and full of promise — but let’s be real: puppies are work. The first year matters so much, and we are looking for families who are ready to invest time, patience, training, structure, and lots of positive experiences to help them grow into well-balanced adult dogs. These kiddos are a mix of two working breeds, which means they are smart, busy, curious, and naturally ready to have a job. Growing up only in the backyard won’t be the right fit for them. They need exposure to new places, new sounds, new people, car rides, vet visits, leash walks, puppy-safe outings, and all the things that help rescue puppies become confident family dogs. They have already started working on potty training, crate training, collar exposure, and have been around kids. Now they need families ready to keep that good foundation going. Training is non-negotiable for this pack.They are the perfect age for Puppy Kindergarten, followed by a basic obedience class before they turn one. Pawsitive Connections offers Puppy Prep locally, and we are happy to provide trainer referrals in our area. Out of area? We can help point you toward options too. Each puppy will go home with:DHPPV vaccines, deworming, microchip, leash, collar, puppy food, and a favorite blanket/toy. Puppies are altered before adoption. Follow-up vet care, including remaining puppy shots and Rabies, will be the adopter’s responsibility. Adoption fee: $350FFR adopts to homes in Idaho, Washington, Oregon, and Montana.
