Story
I acquired Neffy from a breeder. Her birth date is October 5, 2024. She is up to date on her shots and she is spaded. Neffy needs a loving home where she can get plenty of attention. She loves to cuddle and be patted. Neffy loves baths and playing with her chew toys. She is very intelligent and learns quickly. She loves running and playing with other dogs. She has plenty of personality. She does have a habit of eating non edible items such as leaves, sticks and Black Walnut shells. She loves children and company. She loves to run, play in snow, mud or just plain grass. I will soon be moving and I would love for her to go to a family instead of to a shelter.

Story
Luka is 15 months. He is a good dog. He’s good around kids. We go to the park all the time with him off leash. He has been around other dogs. He needs someone who can spend more time with him. He does know basic commands, and is crate trained and he also knows how to alert for the bathroom. Unfortunately, I have a younger sibling who doesn’t know how to display his feelings and would hit the dog. Which resulted in him getting nipped when he messed with the dog in his sleep. The dog is not aggressive. It was a recurring experience that he would mess with the dog in his sleep sometimes the dog would be ok sometimes he would bark or growl at him. Unfortunately this time was different.

Story
Simona was given to us by a friend when our two other dogs past away. At the time we had already adopted a puppy. We accepted Simona with love and welcome arms, but it was soon clear that there was going to be no room for two dogs at home. Would love to find her a great home. She's a very silly loving dog that loves belly rubs and can run for miles. Please help me in giving her the life she deserves.

Story
I like to describe Cliff as a spunky ball of energy. He’s got such a unique personality, and will make you laugh by the funny ways he sits, or how he entertains himself, or how he gets your attention by crawling under your legs. Cliff is a 40lb Catahoula Leopard mix, and will be 2 in July. Cliff has some leash-reactivity, but gets along great with other dogs once playing off-leash, or at daycare. He loves learning new tricks and will do just about anything when he knows there are treats involved! Food motivation has been a great tool in working on his reactivity and socialization, too. He loves anything active and has endless energy to join you on all the walks, hikes, runs, and anything in between! Afterwards, he’s a cuddle bug who will be happy to curl up with you on the couch. Cliff has some anxiety and would do well in a home with a loving, calm, and patient owner. He also does best with regular exercise and/or mental stimulation like enrichment games.

Story
📣 IS IT MY TURN YET ? 📣 Seriously, all I want for Mother’s Day is to be able to ditch my needy kids and have someone devote all their attention to me! My name is Xena and I’m a 16 pound, 2ish year old MinPin mix. I was abandoned on a deserted property with animal skeletons littered everywhere. I was rescued and sent up north but then my uncooperative children refused to make a proper entrance so I needed a c-section. There were only 2 of them so they ate so much they developed Swimmer Syndrome and I thought I’d be stuck with them forever. Thanks to physical therapy they have finally caught up developmentally and are running and jumping like normal puppies. They also chase me everywhere trying to get a free drink at the milk bar. They are almost teenagers, for Pete’s sake. Someone help me .. don’t make me spend Mother Day with these little ingrates! I get along with other dogs but I think I would prefer to be an only princess. I would be happy to spend the rest of my life following you everywhere and napping next to you on the couch. I promise to be your loyal companion for the rest of my days. I have not been leash trained yet so a fenced year is preferable even tho I’m not a runner. I’m working on housebreaking and pretty much get it, just need a little consistency .. I truly aim to please my people. I’m being fostered in Richfield , Wi and my adoption donation is $375. I am already spayed , UTD on vaccinations and micro-chipped so I’m all ready to go. If you think you could be my hero and help me escape this never ending nursery, please submit an application to : https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=tg2551&method=online_form_html&formid=21 DATCP #524558
