Story
This is Chester, 3-year old purebred German Shepherd male. He is neutered and up to date with all shots. Highly trainable with zero health related issues; his hips were x-rayed at a very young age and showed no sign of dysplasia. Chester is quirky and weird. He is often sensitive and shy but has no problems being out in public/social settings with a handler that he trusts and respects. He does not like everyone and he often feels triggered around new people and new settings. On the other side of his introvert character is an intelligent, athletic, and resolutely persistent dog. He enjoys just about everything from playing fetch to exploring hiking trails with the people he loves. Chester needs an experienced handler and/or handlers who can provide upward of 3 hours everyday to care for him and stimulate him mentally/physically. This is a dog for someone who is capable of providing and enforcing rules, routines, and structure consistently on a daily basis.

Story
We have had Rocky for about 3 months. unfortunately our schedules are too busy to be able to keep him and give him the attention he is needing. Rocky is full of energy, he would do best in a fenced in yard or a safe area to run. He does do good playing with my mother’s dog and has been around kids. He loves the water, walks, and chewing on sticks and wood. He loves the outdoors in general.

Plato

Corgi

Male, Adult
Granger, IN
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
We bought Plato in 2023 when he was a 1 year old puppy. He is a purebred corgi and is neutered. Microchipped and shots are upto date. Plato is playful, loves walks, looking outside and snuggling. Plato know sit, shake, and crate to put himself in his crate. The main reason we are rehoming Plato is because he needs a fenced in yard and has run away before. Plato would be okay around older children but I have a four year old who is a screamer and it bothers him. Plato is also crate trained, but it’s definitely his space, in terms of if my kids are around when he’s in it. He has open food 24/7.

Story
?????????? (Longest resident since 12/29/23) 4 years 6 months good with dogs good with childrencrate trained Sasha has had a rough start to life. She was stolen for a long time from her family and bred, and then ended up at the shelter as a stray, not too long after being reunited. Sasha was a mandatory spay and her owners did not come back for her. Words from Sasha's foster:"Sasha is a good girl. She has been good in the home and quickly learned our routine and rhythms. She listens well and responds to redirection when necessary. She typically does well with recall although we have only worked on this in the fenced backyard. She is crate trained. Her people are most important to her. She is almost always wherever I am helping me do what I'm doing. She is a snuggler whether it's across our lap or just pressed close next to us. She's done well with all of our adult children when they have come over albeit jumping when they first arrive. She has also done well with our 20 month old grandson. She loves toys and will entertain herself with them. She especially likes nylabones. She also is a blanket girl. She has a strong personality and needs stimulation and exercise. She will run circles around the backyard as fast as she can to release some energy and she's fast. She did have about a five week adjustment period in learning how to live with our two dogs. Our male is pretty unflappable and with a couple of corrections she got it. She had a harder time adjusting to our female. We think it took her awhile to understand that she was not her competition. They are much better now and will often lay together."Heartworm negative, spayed, microchipped and up to date on all of my vaccinations. Adoption fee of $25 until July 31st.

Story
I'm Mina! I'm about 10 months and I weigh 38 pounds. I came in to the shelter as a stray that was very underweight. The shelter found out I was owned but allowed to roam freely every day. My owners did not reclaim me. This is for the best as I know I will get the best home for me because I am the best girl! I get along with every one I meet and I absolutely love to play with the other dogs here. I have met the office cat Lobster and done great with him. I have gained weight, and was treated for an eye infection, and I am finally up for adoption. I love to go for walks across the street in the park and I am doing really well with potty training!
