(when grown) -

Details

Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Hi, I'm Ember! I'm the best of both worlds and a pretty fascinating girl, if I do say so myself! During the day, I'm all about cuddles and spending time with my people, but I'm also independent enough to do my own thing when I want to relax. I love to play and have fun, but I also know how to keep myself entertained. Give me a good bone to chew on, and I can happily spend hours enjoying it. I'm very food motivated, which makes learning new things fun, but I'm polite about it and won't be begging at your feet during every meal! I have a sweet personality, a great balance of playful and laid-back energy, and plenty of love to give. Whether we're adventuring, cuddling on the couch, or just hanging out together, I'm happiest when I'm part of the family. If you're looking for an awesome companion with the perfect mix of affection, independence, and fun, I might just be your girl. I can't wait to meet my forever family! Ember's adoption fee is waived thanks to Hensley Legal.

Cowbell

Mixed Breed (Medium) Mixed Breed (Medium)

Female, 5 yrs 1 mo

Indianapolis, IN

Size

(when grown) -

Details

Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Cowbell is a fun pup who will do best with an active adopter who is ready and willing to keep up with her! She is still very much a puppy with lots of energy to spare, so she will need someone who can provide plenty of daily playtime, exercise, and mental stimulation. She is very smart and food-motivated, so doing some all-positive, treat-based training would be a great way for her to get some energy out while learning her adult doggy manners and building a bond with her adopter. She may pair well with another social and playful dog.

Linus

Staffordshire Bull Terrier Mixed Breed (Large)

Male, 2 yrs 8 mos

Indianapolis, IN

Size

(when grown) -

Details

Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Linus! Linus is a goofy, affectionate boy with a huge smile and even bigger personality. He's the kind of dog who greets every person like they're his favorite person in the world, tail wagging and ready to give kisses. He loves toys, is food motivated, and already knows "sit." He's working on his manners and would thrive with an adopter who wants to keep training him, since he's smart and eager to please once he understands what's being asked. Linus has a lot of puppy-like energy and enthusiasm packed into his sturdy frame, so he does best with adopters ready to give him plenty of exercise, structure, and consistency. He's a big fan of stuffed toys and loves having something to carry around. He'd do best as the only dog in the home and without cats, and given his exuberance, he's recommended for households with teens and up rather than young kids. If you're an experienced dog person looking for a loyal, loving guy to grow with, someone who will make you laugh daily and reward your patience with total devotion, Linus could be exactly what you're looking for. Thanks to a generous sponsorship from Hensley Legal, Linus's adoption fee is completely waived!

Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Hi, I'm Spot! I'm a good boy who's ready to find a family to call my own. My dream home has a nice backyard where I can run, play, and enjoy the outdoors. I'd also love to be your one and only pet, since I do my best when I don't have to share my home with other animals. I'm still working on some of my manners, so I'll need a little brush-up on my training, but with patience, consistency, and plenty of encouragement, I know I'll keep learning. If you're looking for a loyal best friend to share your adventures with, I think we'd make the perfect team!

Apricot

Shepherd (Unknown Type) Mixed Breed (Medium)

Female, 7 yrs 8 mos

Indianapolis, IN

Size

(when grown) -

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Hi, I’m Apricot! I’m a sweet girl who enjoys spending time with my people. I can be a little shy when meeting new friends, but I’m generally friendly and warm up with a little patience and reassurance. Once I’m comfortable, one of my favorite things to do is cuddle up close and relax with my favorite humans. I’m also a big fan of stretching out in a good sploot and claiming the comfiest spot in the house! I do experience anxiety, so it’s important that my future family understands my needs and is committed to helping me feel safe and supported. I currently receive daily medication, and my adopters should be prepared to continue working with their veterinarian to help me stay happy and comfortable. I’m looking for a home where I can be the only dog, allowing me to enjoy a calm environment and all the attention for myself. In return, I’ll be a loving companion who’s always ready for cuddles and quality time with my favorite people. If you’re looking for a sweet, loyal best friend with plenty of love to give, I’d love to meet you! Apricot's adoption fee has been waived thanks to Hensley Legal.

Risha

Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Hi, I’m Risha! Nice to meet you! My name is Risha, and I’m a sweet, gentle guy who is looking for a patient family to call my own. I can be a little shy when meeting new people, but once I feel comfortable, my affectionate and friendly personality shines through. I love spending time with my favorite people, whether we're going for a walk, relaxing at home, or simply enjoying a quiet day together. I do have Keratoconjunctivitis Sicca (KCS), also known as dry eye, which means I’ll need ongoing eye medication to keep my eyes healthy and comfortable. If you're looking for a loyal companion who just needs a little time to come out of his shell, I might be the perfect match. I can't wait to find my forever family and show them what a wonderful boy I am!
