Story

I acquired Indie when she was 2 months old in Dec 2019 right before the pandemic. We did not have anyone else besides us in and out of the house so I’m constantly working on her socialization. She loves people but is just very protective of her family. Indie will be 6 years old this year. I am looking to rehome her because her anxiety has gotten too high and she can’t handle herself with a lot people around. That being said she did nip at my 3 year old niece. I thought i had indie to a point where I could trust her because she has experience with kids she grew up with my 10 year old son no issues. At this point in my life grand babies are starting to come around more along with my young nieces and this behavior can’t happen. That is why I think it is time for indie to go onto the next journey in her life. Indie is an amazing protective, loving, snuggly, playful dog. She has lots of energy and love to be outside either running around or sunbathing until she is close to sunburnt.

Stella

American Staffordshire Terrier Mixed Breed (Medium)

Female, 5 yrs 3 mos

Monticello, IA

Size

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

Details

Good with kids, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

This 4.5-year-old American Staffordshire Terrier mix is the definition of a lovable goofball. With her quintessential Staffy face and those deep, soulful eyes, Stella has a way of melting hearts instantly — and her personality is just as beautiful. Stella is full of energy and absolutely loves her zoomies! She enjoys playtime with toys (tug is her favorite!) and can keep herself entertained, but nothing makes her happier than spending time with her people. She’s affectionate, eager to please, and has no concept of personal space — she’ll happily climb right into your lap for cuddles and attention. When it comes to other dogs, Stella can get a little overexcited at first, so slow and controlled introductions are important. She’s great with kids, but would do best in a home without cats. This smart girl is potty-trained and already knows her basic commands. She is crate-trained, but the chaotic shelter environment tends to stress her out, causing her to push her snout against her crate (hence the redness seen around her nose and lips). However, we're working with her to help her be more comfortable here, and she's getting better every day. Stella is searching for a family who can give her the exercise, structure, and love she needs to thrive — and in return, she’ll shower you with all the loyalty and affection you could ever want. If you’re looking for a devoted companion with a big heart (and an even bigger personality), Stella might just be your perfect match!

Sparky

Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium) Mixed Breed (Medium)

Male, 3 yrs 10 mos

Monticello, IA

Size

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

Details

Good with kids, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Sparky is one happy, energetic boy who is proving that a little training can go a long way! This lovable guy has been working hard and has made some incredible progress. He has learned “down,” “out,” and a long-distance recall cue of “Sparky, here,” and he is showing just how smart and eager to learn he is. Sparky has also been working on threshold training and has learned to sit and wait patiently at doors until he hears “break.” He does this at the house, kennel, and even the car door. He has also learned to remain calm in the car, settling into a “down” until he's given the release cue. These skills are helping him learn how to manage his excitement and make good choices. And speaking of adventures, Sparky is amazing on walks! He truly enjoys getting out and exploring with his people. He has even kicked his jumping habit and no longer jumps on people, which is a huge accomplishment for this enthusiastic boy. Sparky gets along great with other dogs, but if he had his choice, he'd much rather be hanging out with his human. His favorite thing in the entire world is snuggling. In fact, snuggling is about the only time this little energizer bunny is completely calm. Once he's curled up next to you, he's perfectly content to soak up all the affection he can get. Sparky's biggest challenge is his energy. He has an endless supply of it, but it's happy, excited energy. He wants to experience everything, go everywhere, learn new things, and be part of the action. His ideal family will embrace that enthusiasm and give him plenty of exercise, training, enrichment, and adventure. Sparky is smart, affectionate, incredibly happy, and eager to please. He's come a long way, and we can't wait to see what he accomplishes next. If you're looking for an active companion who is ready to explore the world with you and then curl up for a serious snuggle session afterward, Sparky may be your guy!

Alvin

Labrador Retriever Catahoula Leopard Dog

Male, 2 yrs 2 mos

Monticello, IA

Size

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

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

This handsome boy is a medium-sized sweetheart with long legs, floppy ears, smooth fur, and the prettiest eyes you ever did see. At first, Alvin can be a little reserved, but once he feels comfortable, his gentle and happy personality begins to shine. Alvin is an independent guy who enjoys taking life at his own pace. He may not be the first one to rush up and demand attention, but that makes his quiet companionship all the more special. He is looking for someone who will give him the time and patience he needs to settle in and show you who he really is. This boy already knows sit, walks nicely on a leash, takes treats politely, and enjoys a good bone. He gets along with other dogs and would do well with children ages 7 and up who understand how to give a dog space when needed. Shelter life has been a little stressful for Alvin, so he is ready to trade the kennel for a comfortable home where he can relax, build confidence, and enjoy the simple things in life. His calm, gentle nature makes him a wonderful candidate for a first-time dog owner. If you’re looking for a sweet companion with beautiful eyes, a soft personality, and just the right amount of independence, Alvin may be the boy you’ve been waiting for. Come meet him and give this deserving guy the chance to show you how special he is!

Arlo

Mixed Breed (Medium) Mixed Breed (Medium)

Male, 4 yrs 2 mos

Monticello, IA

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Arlo. ❤️ Arlo is one of those dogs who makes you stop and think about just how far a dog can come. He was rescued from a large hoarding situation in Texas, where he was one of approximately 50 animals living in extremely overcrowded conditions. Arlo was found confined to a crate so severely soiled and filled with feces and bedding that he could not even stand up. His rescuers stepped in and helped him begin the long process of rebuilding his strength, muscle tone, and ability to function normally. Now, Arlo is in Iowa and learning what a different life can look like. Arlo is a shy, gentle boy who needs people to slow down and let him set the pace. If you move too quickly, he may run away. But if you sit back, give him a little time, and let him come to you, you get to see the sweet dog underneath that initial nervousness. Once he feels safe, Arlo enjoys being petted and settles down surprisingly quickly. Arlo gets along with others and is good with kids. He keeps his kennel clean and enjoys a good butt scratch. He is going to need a home that understands the importance of structure, routine, patience, and allowing him to build confidence at his own pace. Kids in his new home should understand that Arlo may need a little extra time to feel comfortable and should allow him to approach them rather than rushing toward him. Arlo has already overcome more than any dog should have to. He went from a life where he could barely move to learning how to walk, explore, and trust people again. Now, we want to find him the quiet, safe home where he can continue to discover just how good life can be. Arlo may not be the dog who runs up to greet you right away. He may need you to wait for him. But when he finally chooses to walk over and accept that first gentle pet, you will know you have earned something pretty special. ❤️ Could you be the patient person Arlo has been waiting for?
