Story
She is a great dog. She doesn’t really like other dogs. I can take her for walks without a leash.She has a collar that has vibration, sound, and shock. I have never had to use anything but the vibration. She walks on the side of the road with me. She will sit and she will go lay down when you tell her to. She likes her toys. When it’s feeding time if she wants food, she will talk to me.

Story
Meet Ellie, the enchanting black furball with a personality as charming as her appearance. Her little white whiskery beard gives her a distinguished look, and those big, pointy ears add an element of adorable quirkiness. Ellie's button eyes may be small, but they sparkle with intelligence, reflecting her sharp mind and curious thoughts.Despite her cleverness, Ellie is a bit on the shy side, making her all the more endearing. Once you break through her initial reserve, you'll discover a lovey-dovey side to her. She's the ultimate snuggle companion, turning any quiet evening into a cozy affair. Moreover, Ellie has mastered the art of being a great car passenger, making road trips a joy with her calm demeanor and sweet disposition. In her presence, every journey becomes an adventure filled with warmth and companionship. Ellie is not just a bundle of cuteness; she's a well-behaved gem in the household. At 9 years old, she is house-trained to perfection, you can count on her to keep the living space tidy and accident-free. She understands the cues of domesticity with an impressive repertoire of tricks up her furry sleeve. From basic cues to pattern games, Ellie's sharp mind eagerly takes on challenges, making her an engaging companion for those who appreciate intelligence in a four-legged friend.While Ellie may be the ideal partner for adults seeking a loyal and clever companion, she leans towards a serene environment. Her preference for a home without children or other pets reflects her desire for a peaceful haven where she can truly thrive. This discerning choice makes her the perfect match for individuals or couples looking to share their lives with a canine companion who craves a quieter, more relaxed atmosphere.In essence, Ellie is not just a charming canine; she's a well-rounded companion who brings both brains and beauty to the table. Her house-trained habits, knowledge of cues, and aversion to the chaotic energy of children and other pets make her an excellent fit for those who appreciate a tranquil yet intellectually stimulating canine presence in their lives.For more information about our adoptable animals and/or to submit an adoption inquiry, please visit animalretreat.org.

Story
Meet Chong! The vet estimates Chong is about three years old. He came to us as an owner-surrender because his previous family had too many Chihuahuas. While he was initially shy when he arrived a couple of months ago, our volunteers have worked with him daily and he has made incredible progress. He is still shy with new people at first, but he warms up once he trusts you mean him no harm. Chong will need a family that is patient with him as he gets more comfortable with them. Chong recently returned to the shelter after spending a couple of weeks with a foster family while recovering from his neuter surgery. Here is what his foster mom shared about him: "Chong loves to cuddle and nuzzle up to me while sitting on the couch watching a movie. He would love to sleep on the bed next to you. He's pretty much a couch potato unless he's following me around while I'm doing chores. Every now and again he likes to grab a soft small toy and run around the yard—but definitely not the ones that squeak, because the noise scares him. Because I was watchful of him and paid attention to his queues, he only had one accident inside the house on his first day in my home. After that he never had an accident in the house." Chong does well with other dogs and does not mind the office cat. Please note that Chong is sensitive to cigarette smoke and gets terrified around people who smoke. To ensure his well-being, we require a strictly smoke-free home for his adoption. Chong has come a long way and will be ready for his new forever home soon! If you are interested in learning more or setting up a time to meet him, please let us know. All dogs are vaccinated, microchipped and spayed or neutered (if they are old enough) before they leave the shelter. If the dog is not old enough, you will be given a voucher for Animal Medical Center in Emmett to cover the cost of the spay or neuter and a one year rabies vaccine. Please fill out an application if you are interested in this dog or call us today for more information.         Because we are an all-volunteer organization, please call ahead to schedule a time for a Meet & Greet so we can ensure a dog handler is available to show you the dog or dogs you are interested in.         Pet Adoption League  1526 N.

Story
Meet Katara, a 3.5-year-old, medium-sized sweetheart who is ready to find her forever family. This special girl is full of love, energy, and personality—she absolutely adores people and has never met a belly rub she didn’t like. She’s also dog-friendly and enjoys having four-legged pals, though she’ll need a cat-free home.Katara is both housetrained and crate-trained, making her a wonderful companion for someone looking for a loyal and affectionate dog. She’s playful, smart, and loves learning new things—especially if meaty treats or even pancakes are involved! Her favorite hobbies include swimming, shredding toys, and being by your side for any adventure.Because Katara has a lot of enthusiasm for life, she may be a little too energetic for small children or seniors, but in the right home she will thrive. She does take medication for anxiety, and what helps her most is having a stable home and a predictable routine. With patience, structure, and love, Katara will blossom into the very best friend you’ve ever had.They say dogs are a man’s best friend, and they must have been talking about Katara—because she’s just waiting to be yours.For more information about our adoptable animals and/or to submit an adoption inquiry, please visit animalretreat.org.

Story
Meet Copper!This handsome 2 year old boy has stolen our hearts with his fun-loving spirit and affectionate nature. Spend just a little time with him, and you’ll quickly see why he’s such a favorite around here.Copper came to us from another rescue after having a tough start in life. He was found abandoned and underweight at a local lake, and while his early days weren’t easy, Copper has shown incredible resilience. With time, patience, and training, he’s blossomed into a bright, playful dog who is ready to find his forever person.Copper is full of energy and curiosity—he loves to run, explore, and make every day an adventure. At our farm location, where he’s been working one-on-one with staff, he’s been learning important life skills like how to relax, how to channel his excitement, and how to be the best companion he can be. He’s come such a long way and is now more than ready to keep learning and growing with his new family.We think Copper will thrive in a home with adults (and maybe dog-savvy teens) who can match his zest for life. He’s done well with other medium-to-large dogs, but because of his prey drive, a home without small animals is best. Copper is happiest with a balance of activity and downtime—he’ll gladly join you on a hike, but he’s equally happy entertaining himself with toys in a fenced yard.And here’s a fun fact: Copper is a massage connoisseur. Head and neck rubs? Absolute bliss. Add in his love for toys, his goofy food preferences (fruits are a definite “no, thanks”), and his enthusiasm for people, and you’ve got a dog who’s as lovable as he is unique.At just over 2 years old, Copper has his whole life ahead of him, filled with adventures, cuddles, and the joy of being someone’s best friend. Could that someone be you?For more information about our adoptable animals and/or to submit an adoption inquiry, please visit animalretreat.org.

Story
We have another graduate of our Education Project for Inmates & Canines. Let us introduce you to Sam, whose EPIC handlers did him a favor by writing a bio on his behalf."Hello, my name is Sam. I am an almost 5 year old mixed breed pup. I enjoy tug, chase, lick mats, and seek. I am comfortable around other dogs after being around them before meeting. I am nervous and timid around new people being introduced but am friendly after the first greeting. I love my handler/family. I know sit, down, stay, touch, chin, spin/turn, and other basic cues. I don't really like loud noises, a lot of people, being alone, and fetch (but I'm still trying!). I definitely DO like playing (tug, seek, and chase are my favorites). Plus, I like working for treats, walking, sniffing, cuddling, old people, kids, and grooming."Sam is a sweet and loving dog who has really opened up in our program, thanks to the hard work of his EPIC tea. He's now acting so much more relaxed and playful due to our confidence-building protocols and many hours of skilled behavior work by his beloved friends. If you're looking for a buddy who really, honestly, truly, madly, deeply loves his people, look no further than Sam.For more information about our adoptable animals and/or to submit an adoption inquiry, please visit animalretreat.org.
