Story

We have a very special dog for you to meet. His name isn't unique or outstanding but his story and his personality certainly are! This is Buddy. Buddy arrived into foster care 12/7/24. No, thats not a typo. Buddy has been in foster care for over a year. He was 6mo old when we got him and sadly, Buddy had Anaplasmosis. Anaplasmosis; also known as tick borne disease; caused Buddy to have dangerously low platelet counts. He was one of those special babies we just wanted to wrap in bubble wrap to keep him safe but Buddy had other plans. He wanted to dog. He wanted to play. He wanted to run with his foster siblings. Carefully and under the very watchful eye of his foster mom; he did! Buddy got to be a dog. Buddy has fought to get healthy for a year. A year of prednisone and sometimes other meds when he had complications to be healthy enough to safely neuter and live a normal life. Buddy WON!! He took his meds like a champ and he learned every day! We are ecstatic to say Buddy is finally healthy! His blood counts have held without the meds!! On the outside he looks like a normal dog. Ok, maybe a little chunky but prednisone does that. On the inside he's steel from fighting his hard won battle. Buddy is officially ready to find his forever!! Here's what's most important to know about Buddy's future forever home. He's a very determined boy who needs a home that can not only set but maintain boundaries!! This is non-negotiable for him. He's a big boy and sometimes stubborn. Buddy is good with other dogs of all sizes. Buddy is very gentle when taking treats from children, when hes told to and his boundaries are in place. Cats are a hard no. Buddy is house trained and pretty good on a leash. He does still pull but he didn't get much practice as a pup because of his health issues. It was to risky to expose him to potential bites ect. When Buddy came to us his counts were so low that trimming a nail to short could be life threatening so he wasn't taken for many walks. He will need practice. Buddy is an amazing dog and has fought so hard to get to this point. He deserves the world!! Buddy does get along easier and faster with women than men but he loves everyone. Buddy is a special case. But he will forever be your Buddy if you let him.

Tia

Maltese

Story

Tia got her first groom last Friday and did great! This special girl has come so far since joining rescue. Tia is a 10yr old Maltese mix who was surrendered from a puppy mill back in November. Shes been working in her socializing and learning what a house is. Tia is not your typical dog. She does well with puppy pads and does enjoy her outside time. Tia is still learning that humans are ok. And we don't blame her. When you spend the first 7yrs of your life in a puppy mill; it changes you. Thankfully her puppy having days are over. Tia is fully vetted. She will require a calm home with understanding people who get that shes not a lap dog. Her family will need to understand that she has to take things at her pace. Her kennel is her safe spot. She loves to watch her foster siblings and resident dogs from the comfort of her doggy bed in the safety of her kennel. She's been thru somethings and patience is the key with her. Her trust cant be rushed, it has to be earned. She would do best with another dog her size for a companion that she can learn from. She maybe older but she deserves to live the rest of her life in comfort and safety. With unconditional love, patience and understanding. #nonprofitanimalrescue #puppymillsurvivor #fosteringsaveslives #cuteness #fosterpuppylove #fosterpuppiesofinstagram #survivorstrong

Stella

German Shepherd Dog

Size

Story

This doggy is a very loving and loyal GSD/Lab mix who loves to play. I have crate trained her and she has no issue pottying outside in a fenced area. She is easy on walks and doesn’t pull, she is very timid and gentle. She loves to lay behind you when you’re on the computer or sit next to you when you’re watching TV. She will follow you around and be by your side wherever you go in the house, including the shower if you let her! She will come with her crate, bowls and toys. I am set to leave the country for work soon and won’t be able to take her, my backups fell through so here we are. She is incredibly loving and needs someone who has time for her, it’s just me at home and she is alone a lot because of my job. She is unique for a GSD, she is relaxed and doesn’t whine or run around aimlessly unless it’s playtime. She is extremely timid around new people and will take extra time to adjust. Once she feels safe, she will blossom into an amazing dog as she did with me.

Tilly

Australian Shepherd

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter,

Story

Meet Tilly ❤️. She is a wonderful dog with a goofy and loving personality! She loves to cuddle and is made of springs when she is excited. We love her very much but know we are not the right home for her. Unfortunately the previous owner lied to me about her level of training as well as telling me she is good with cats. She is not good with cats. I have worked tirelessly with her so that she now responds to her name, will sit, and lay down. She is getting better with potty training but she used potty pads in the past. She will use those but will also miss. We have encouraged her to go outside and have bells on the door as well as encouraging her with treats. She needs someone more experienced and who has more time to train her. I have 3 special needs kids and this is just too much on my plate unfortunately. She would do great with a high energy dog buddy but no cats at all, she chases ours a lot. Tilly is truly amazing, just needs a home with less chaos and more time ❤️.

Story

We are looking for the right home for our beloved Great Dane, Atlas. Please read. ❤️ This is one of the hardest things we’ve ever had to share. We love Atlas deeply. This is not a “we don’t want him” situation—this is a “he deserves more than we are able to give him right now” situation. Atlas is 3 years old. He is goofy, huge, affectionate, and truly part of our family. He has been loved and cared for his entire life. But Atlas has significant environmental allergies that require consistent management, medication, veterinary care, and a home fully prepared to meet those needs long-term. We have tried everything we can, and this decision has come with a lot of heartbreak. At this point, we have to put his needs above our own attachment to him. We are looking for a very specific home for Atlas: Someone experienced with Great Danes, financially and emotionally prepared for ongoing medical care, and ready to love him as much as we do. We are not rushing this.

Ranger

Australian Cattle Dog Labrador Retriever

Male, Adult

Bellevue, NE

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet Ranger! He's almost 5 years old, and a very well-trained, high energy cattle dog. He's one of the friendliest dogs you'll ever meet because he LOVES people. We made the tough decision to re-home him due to having our first child. While he's such a good dog, he is still very high-energy and is sometimes unaware of his own size. He knows a lot of commands and is very smart, but it is a hit-or-miss if he gets along with other dogs. We also don't recommend him for a family with very young kids either just due to his energy levels. He's chipped and has all of his shots, but he is coming due for his rabies shot soon. Regardless, he loves to cuddle and play and he'd be a great, safe, dog for anyone looking to adopt!
