Story
Meet Miss Faith! She is a rambunctious, smart, sweet puppy. We estimate her to be almost 2 years old. She came to us from a severe neglect case, and was extremely skinny and unsocialized. She has come a long way since she was rescued, but still has a lot of learning to do. She loves her people once she trusts them, but has some insecurities, so slow introductions with people are key. She loves to snuggle, give kisses, and spend time chilling on the couch. She also loves to fetch and go for walks. Essentially, she is a puppy in a 2 year old body, that loves to love but has a lot of world to discover!! By the way she LOVES men, so if you are a guy looking for a new furry companion, she is your girls!!!Faith is curently in a board and train facility in LaCrosse WI (this is where her meet and greet will occur), where they are teaching her to trust new people. She does great with men and will give you a longing look until you decide to come over and say hi. She is slower to meet women, but if you avoid initial eye contact at first, and use her name with treats, she adjusts quickly. She has learned that fellow furry friends are a great thing and LOVES to play! She needs a low energy, confident dog as dogs with aniexty only feed hers. Additionally, we would also recommend a home without young children. She is so powerful, that littles may get knocked over during play time. We think with more training and discipline, she could settle into a home with older kids, but now she just has too much enery behind her love. Ideally, we are looking for a patient, disciplined adopter that can help Faith learn and grow the proper way to associate with her humans and canine friends. We know she can be a champion for her breed, and we want a family that will help her do that. She is a determined, smart, goofy girl that needs boundaries and rules to learn how life works and teach her the tools to be successful! Please at least consider a meeting to see if she is a good fit for you. We think she is truly a diamond in the rough, that deserves to have a loving family! Faith's adoption fee is $475 and will arrive fully vetted, altered, and microchipped. If interested in Faith, please fill out an application at www.newbeganimalrescue.org ##989459##

Grayson is such a good boy! 😭 Smart, great with kids and other pets. It breaks my heart to rehome him, but my granddaughters severe pet allergies make it impossible. 💔 #Dog #Family #Allergies #Rehoming #Sad

Story
Note from Gail at Picket Fence Poodle Rescue Rehome....  This Standard Poodle is available for adoption from my friend, Melanie at Autumn Hills Poodles who is a member of the Twin Cities Poodle Club: Meet AIDEN who is an AKC 5 1/2-year-old brown Standard Poodle that is looking for his forever home. Aiden is a big cream puff, loving boy who will follow me around the house.  He loves everyone and enjoys being with other dogs. The pictures show him on the grooming table, otherwise he is at my side wagging his tail...continually!  This is the happiest dog who even loves his grooming table! He is also a soft and easy-going Poodle who would like to live with another dog as that would help him adjust faster to a new home as he's never been by himself. Like most Standard Poodles, he does have a strong prey drive.  So please, no cats.   However, he does just fine with small dogs. You do need to be physically able to handle a big dog as he weighs around 70-75 lbs and stands at a good 28 inches tall measuring from the floor to his withers. He is neutered, up to date on all his vaccines, Vet checked healthy, is crate trained and housetrained.   A securely fenced yard will be required.   The adoption fee is $750.00 Please contact Melanie at: autumnhillspoodles@hotmail.com  for Aiden’s “adoption application” or with any questions about this sweet boy.

Story
Loving, quiet, snuggly dog that needs a good home. Only being re-homed due to relocation and restrictions. Only one owner. We bought him from the breeder when he was approx 3 months old. His birthday is 7/9/23. He likes walks and snuggling on the couch. GREAT WITH KIDS! Our toddler would frequently sit on the dog, or lay on him, and he would never be upset (or move lol). Rarely barks.

Story
Hello! My name is Cyrus. I am a handsome boy with a HUGE heart. My ideal home is a place where I am the only pet for a multitude of redone but primarily so I get all the affection. I am a dog that loves my humans, and loves to have a routine. Everyone is constantly telling me how smart I am. I love going for car rides, playing ball, and lounging having some snuggle time. I am an avid movie buff and love a nice night in watching Netflix with a cozy blanket. Cozy blankets are a must have. I can be the biggest love bug you will ever meet, so despite the fact I don't care for other animal companions I think I am a pretty good catch. Did I mention I am super handsome? Well, at least that's what all these people keep saying. I tend to agree. Now that I'm older I have that distinguished gentleman thing going for me. If you think you might be the one I have been waiting for, fill out an adoption application. You will not regret it! I promise to win you over in no time. We can be best friends! *Cyrus would do best with a calm and confident leader* Date of Birth: (estimated) 8/24/14 Good with Dogs: No Good with Cats: No Good with Kids: Older respectful children (loves them) House Trained: Yes Weight: 66 Requires a Fence: Yes Adoption Fee: $250 (plus sales tax) Submit an application at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/FEHR/Dog Sponsor me!
