Story
Meet Hooch ❤️Hooch has every reason to be unsure of the world, but somehow this sweet boy has chosen love anyway.He came from an animal control seizure involving severe neglect, where he and several other dogs were found emaciated and being used for breeding. It was a heartbreaking start, but Hooch has never let his past define him.He is gentle. He is loving. He is trusting. And he is so ready for the life he should have had all along.Many of the dogs from his case have already found homes through DeKalb Humane Society, and the wonderful team at Shadarobah worked hard to help Hooch find his perfect match too. When that match didn’t come, Hooch came to DeKalb Humane Society for another chance to be seen by the right family.And the right family is going to be incredibly lucky.Hooch is blind, but please don’t let that be the first thing you remember about him. Remember that he loves people. Remember that he is wonderful with other dogs. Remember that he has a soft, gentle soul and a heart that still believes humans can be good.We believe Hooch may do well with cats, but because he is blind, careful introductions would be important.What Hooch needs most is a patient, loving home that will help him feel safe, learn his surroundings, and finally experience what it means to be cherished.After everything he has survived, Hooch deserves soft beds, kind hands, full bowls, gentle voices, and a family who sees just how special he is.Meet Hooch. He is not broken. He is brave, beautiful, and ready to be loved.An adoption application can be filled out on the DHS website https://www.dekalbhumanesociety.org/adopt.

Story
‼️Arlo is not at Dekalb Humane Society‼️His current owners are holding onto him so he doesn’t have to come back. They are absolutely heartbroken to make this decision but they are doing what’s best for the dog in the situation. Please apply at DeKalb Humane Society if you are interested. This is the bio his owners took time to write personally: “Are you looking for a new best friend? Meet Arlo, he LOVES people, and he’s looking for his forever best friend.Arlo is a 1.5-year-old beagle mix with a big personality and a lot of love to give. His favorite pastimes include:Surveying his domain (the backyard)Running at full speed (he’s quick!)SunbathingSquirrel watching from his favorite windowGoing on literally any adventure (he’s awesome in the car)Chewing on his favorite BeneboneCuddling with his favorite humanGiving A LOT of kissesSitting on his favorite human’s lap to get a better view out the windowHowling with his humans. He has quite the singing voice!For the last 6-months, Arlo has been living with what we’d hoped would be his forever family. He has been well-loved by them. Unfortunately, we’ve found that Arlo would likely do best as an only dog, at least until he has worked through his resource guarding. Arlo does not resource guard with his humans, but he does with his current dog brother. The professional trainer he’s worked with believes this can be remedied, but his current human can no longer manage the situation due to circumstances outside her control. He also currently has a cat brother, who he is not a danger to, but who he does often like to chase.In the last 6-months, Arlo has made a lot of improvement with his “sit” command (he’s a wiggle butt and gets VERY excited about food). He is fully crate-trained, but if he knows you’re leaving the house, he’ll be quite vocal about it until you actually leave. He is accustomed to sleeping in his crate and stays perfectly quiet until you’re ready to let him out the next morning. If you want him to sleep in your bed, he’ll be thrilled about it. He’s fully potty trained and hasn’t had a single accident in the 6-months he’s been in his current home. His recall has also come a long way, and he typically comes inside when called, even when he’s not thrilled about it.Arlo would do best with humans who have a decent-sized (or large) backyard that is fenced in, so he has plenty of room to safely run and sniff. He’s also a high jumper, so a privacy fence would be ideal. He would absolutely love it if his human were home a lot during the day (a stay-at-home parent or work-from-home situation would be awesome). His current mom works from home, and he loves to hang out with her while she works.Arlo will bring along his crate, crate cover, crate pad, 2 favorite blankets, his favorite chewies, and his food/water bowls with a mess-control stand to his new forever home. And, his new family will get one free training session (virtual or in-person) with Jody at Green Dog Goods in Fort Wayne to help them understand how to help him through his resource guarding.Arlo isn’t just an adorable face. He’s a big love bug packed into a 21lb package.”An adoption application can be filled out on the DHS website https://www.dekalbhumanesociety.org/adopt.

Story
Meet Delilah!Delilah is a gorgeous Malinois mix with the perfect combination of beauty, intelligence, and charm. Her absolute favorite thing in the world is people—and we mean ALL people. Friends, strangers, kids, adults... if there's a human nearby, Delilah is ready to make a new best friend. Her affectionate, outgoing personality makes her a joy to be around and a favorite wherever she goes.Delilah is confident and knows what she likes. While she isn't aggressive with other dogs, she can be selective and appreciates proper introductions. She has a naturally dominant personality and likes boundaries, so slow, structured meet-and-greets set her up for success if other dogs are in the home. Delilah came to us from Shadarobah Rescue and is now searching for a forever family of her own. Like many Malinois mixes, she's smart, loyal, and thrives when she has a strong bond with her people. She is looking for an adopter who understands, loves, and respects the Malinois breed for what it truly is—an intelligent, driven, devoted companion that flourishes with guidance, engagement, and a meaningful connection to its family.Whether you're looking for an adventure buddy, a faithful companion, or a dog who will happily greet everyone she meets, Delilah is ready for the job.If you're looking for a loving, people-oriented companion with a heart as beautiful as her looks, Delilah can't wait to meet you.An adoption application can be filled out on the DHS website https://www.dekalbhumanesociety.org/adopt. Dog adoption fees are $250.00 for all puppies and adult dogs. Seniors are a donation of choice.Cats and kittens are minimum donation $50.00
