Story

Hi! My name is Nika. I am a 12 year old female Shih Tzu. I was recently surrendered to a shelter by no fault of my own. The shelter helped to get me healthy with a dental and a mastectomy. I am having one of my eyes removed soon, but that won't slow me down! I would like to have a playmate and a fenced yard. I am deaf and it helps me having a buddy around and the fence will keep me safe. My foster Mom says I am adorable and such a sweet pup. I would have to agree with her, I am great! I am having so much fun with my foster siblings. Young kids probably aren't a good fit for me, since I am easily startled being deaf.If you are looking for another member of your family, please fill out an application for ME! I can't wait to find my furever home.All adoptions are $300 per dog for puppies under 1 year, $250 for adults 1 - 9 years old and $150 for senior dogs which include spay/neuter, micro-chipped and up-to-date on required shots. Senior dogs, at our discretion, are adopted out at $150 per dog because we know they will have less time with your family and may eventually have more needs as they get older. But we feel these dogs deserve to live out the rest of their lives as part of a loving family.

Sky

Labrador Retriever Mixed Breed (Medium)

Female, 3 yrs 5 mos

Size

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

Details

Story

Sky is a gorgeous 3 year old 40ish lb lab mix who came to us with a gunshot wound and had to have her front leg amputated. She has recovered remarkably well and even does stairs just fine now. Sky's needs include a place with a fully fenced yard - she will take days if not a week or two to completely adjust to new people. This includes barking and not wanting to be touched much until she trusts you, so no apartments or young children for her forever home please. When she does feel comfortable with someone she will be their little shadow dog and never leave them alone - but with her past she does have stranger danger. She will likely need a few meets and at least a month long trial run to ensure she adjusts well to a new space.She would *love* another dog to play with and follow around in her forever home - she wants to chase cats a little too much for our liking so would do better with dog friends only. This girl will be your best friend when she knows it's safe for her.Her adoption fee is $250 and she's fully vetted. If you have the setup and patience to give Sky a chance at forever, please put an application in at www.foreverhomedogs.org and we will get some meets set up!All adoptions are $300 per dog for puppies under 1 year, $250 for adults 1 - 9 years old and $150 for senior dogs which include spay/neuter, micro-chipped and up-to-date on required shots. Senior dogs, at our discretion, are adopted out at $150 per dog because we know they will have less time with your family and may eventually have more needs as they get older.

Joey is a 7.5 year old Jack Russel mix who is needing to be rehomed due to issues with their newborn baby. He gets along great with all dogs and has been going to The Collar Club for boarding and daycare since he was a puppy. He is fully crate and potty trained, knows basic commands, and is generally pretty easy going at home. He can take a little time to warm up to new people but once he does, he is sweet as can be! He loves everyone at the Collar Club and has warmed up to strangers at his foster home after being around them for a short period of time. Joey does currently take daily anxiety and allergy medications. His adoption fee is $250.

Rowena

Labrador Retriever Chow Chow

Female, 10 yrs 8 mos

Johnston, IA

Size

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

Details

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

Story

Rowena is a 10ish year old lab mix (we did a DNA test and it came back lab/chow/golden retriever/pointer and several others) - about 60 lbs. She is house/kennel trained, and definitely wants to learn how to dog! She was found in 2019 living in a wood pile in Oklahoma protecting her puppies, so has some trauma there that needs worked through and a dedicated adopter will do so much for her. She needs a very structured living environment and a strong dog-savvy owner. She loves to be outside so would enjoy a nice physically fenced yard (no invisible fencing with her history, sorry). Privacy fencing will be preferred as she guards her territory. She will not do well in an apartment setting since she has a fear of strangers and needs muzzled on walks in strange places. She has been through heartworm treatment and will require an adopter who will keep her on preventatives and regular testing. She does well with dogs as long as they aren't tiny/can't be mistaken for squirrels or rabbits. She chases cats. She is food protective with other dogs, so will need to be fed separate / in kennel as a precaution. Once she is comfortable with you, she likes to snuggle and give kisses and hugs -- but it may take a few weeks for her to warm up fully. No kids for Roe -- fast movements and small creatures with her don't mix. Her adoption fee is $250. If you have an easy-going and patient lifestyle that will give this girl the structure she needs and are interested in meeting Rowena, please put an application in at www.foreverhomedogs.org and we will set up a meet with you!All adoptions are $300 per dog for puppies under 1 year, $250 for adults 1 - 9 years old and $150 for senior dogs which include spay/neuter, micro-chipped and up-to-date on required shots.
