Story
You won't catch me trying to steal your shoes or chew up your remote. I won't require constant training and daily reminders. You won't wonder how big I am gonna get or what my personality will be like when I grow up. I know outside is for the bathroom and inside is for relaxing. You have to head out? No problem, I will be here waiting when you get home. Do you want to go for a walk? Let's take a stroll. Do you want to stay home and relax instead? I'm here for that too! If you want to hang out with a buddy who gets your vibe and will be the best therapy a heart can buy then pick me! My name is Dos and I'm a 12 year old mix breed with a heart of gold and a smile that will light up a room. I am up to date on vaccinations, neutered and ready to settle right in. I get along with other dogs and older kids. My adoption fee is $100 and believe me my sugar face is worth it.

Meet Loki, the little guy with a big personality. With his tail-chasing antics, paw shuffle dances, and the way he grumbles at himself in the mirror, he’s bound to make your heart melt. Loki loves being close to his people, whether it’s snuggling on the couch, enjoying belly rubs, or eagerly awaiting a treat. He’s sweet, loving, goofy, and always ready to make you smile. While Loki is still getting used to walking on a leash, with a little work, he’ll soon be strutting his stuff. Loki is crate trained, doing great with potty training, and okay with other dogs and cats. He’s also discovering the joy of toys and loves bringing them into his crate for safekeeping. Loki requires some time and patience before you earn his trust, but once you do, he’s the best little dog. If you’re looking for a loyal friend, Loki is your guy! To adopt, visit tailsofhopewi.com.

Story
Meet Nala! 🐾 Nala is a 5-year-old Terrier Mix who’s looking for a forever home where she can share her joyful and playful spirit. Despite having some medical needs, this sweet girl is full of life and happiness 🙂 Nala came into rescue with diabetes and EPI, which is easily managed with two insulin shots and a special supplement with her meals twice a day, which helps keep her in great shape and ready for fun! Nala adores playing with kids, gets along wonderfully with other dogs, and is perfectly fine with cats. She’s a versatile companion who can fit into various households. She is searching for a loving home where she can continue to thrive. Ideally, her new home would not have farm animals, as they can lead her to eat things that upset her sensitive stomach during outdoor explorations. Ready to make Nala a part of your life? Fill out an adoption application at www.tailsofhopewi.org! We'd be happy to discuss her needs a bit more with you!

Story
Meet Boo! Boo is an adorable and playful companion who brings joy to everyone around. Currently working on crate training, she is making great strides and usually settles down after a little while. With a solid house training record, she is ready to be part of your family! Boo is wonderful with kids and loves to be involved in all the fun. While she playfully chases and paws at cats, they will need to be confident and able to hold their ground. Boo is still getting accustomed to dogs, showing some growling and barking at those passing by, but this is likely just curiosity. This clever pup has a true hound nose and thrives on tracking scents outside, making outdoor adventures a blast! When playtime is over, you can find Boo snuggling up close, always eager to be part of the action. Three words to describe Boo? Smart, playful, and absolutely adorable!
