Story
Woody is your typical German Shepherd. Playful, but always “on duty”. He guards the yard, and protects his family. He’s an extremely loyal dog and we hate to have to re-home our boy but we are relocating to a new state and are unable to bring him along. I purchased this beautiful guy in 2020 as a puppy. He loves being outdoors mostly but as he is getting older he needs to come in at night. He needs space to run, so a person with a large yard/land would be ideal. He loves playing fetch and he loves treats. Ideally I’m looking for an experienced dog owner in this breed who knows how to handle their unique personality. He loves playing in the snow, running through the summer sprinkler and honestly loves to take naps on the porch too. Would be great for a single or married couple who has lots of time to devote and love on him.

Story
**In a foster home; please call 812-349-3492 for more information**Gomez is feeling a little lost without a "Morticia" to guide him, and he has become quite the lady's man, preferring to go for romantic walks in the yard and keep his distance from men. Gomez would prefer a calm introduction so he can gain his footing and show his silly side. He enjoys a chest scratch once he gets to know you and moves so fast when he chases a ball that he becomes a blur!

Story
**In a foster home; please call 812-349-3492 for more information**Ace is such a sweet fella, and once he warms up to you he becomes the most fun loving guy! He's spent his time at the shelter recovering from some serious injuries, but he has been a real trooper the entire time. Ace figured since he's feeling a lot better, it's about time to settle down with a family and move on from this tough time in his life. He LOVES toys and can leap to the highest of heights to catch his bouncing ball!
