Size

Details

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained,

Story

Star came to me from a friend, she was rehomed due to snapping at their autistic toddler. Would strongly recommend either an empty nest or teenagers instead of young kids around her, she does great with my 13 yr old. She tries to chase neighborhood cats so I dont know how well she will mix with cats and other dogs are touch and go, shes fine with our 5yr old blood hound and the 6 month old pit puppy, but not with my 3 yr old boxer mix. She is super friend and a sweetheart as well as one huge snuggle bug. Need a home for her ASAP however because I can't have 4 dogs in my home for long cause right now it requires either Star or my boxer mix to be kenneled for longer periods of time to avoid another fight. Really just wanting her to go to a home she will be loved in for a long time, we are her 2nd family as the friends I got her from had her from birth on, she is pure Pit a mix of red and blue nose that resulted in a brindle.

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

There is a reason Piper's name rhythms with hyper, this girl has lots of energy and needs space to zoom. Once she is worn out she will cuddle in the cutest ways that warm your heart. She loves people and other animals, smaller breeds need to be wary though because her size doesn't always reflect her love for them. Growing up with a much smaller dog in the house has helped with training in that area, however she is too rough with cats.Piper is extremely receptive to food driven training and knows several tricks such as; sit, paw, lay down, kennel. Some more advanced commands such as go through, which means to go through your legs and sit beside you and behind where she will come behind you and sit between your legs.Piper needs a home with lots of attention and space. She might bark at small noises but will make a phenomenal guard for a family home. She comes with a kennel she will never outgrow, treats, toys and food bowls. All the essentials.

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

Female, 7 yrs 5 mos

Plattsmouth, NE

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

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
