Story
Odin is a very large Cane Corso (160+ lbs). He loves his people and is very protective of his family. He loves snuggles and thinks he is a lap puppy. He is good with older children but he is extremely uncomfortable around infants/toddlers. Currently lives with an older child and newborn. He would do best in a home without other dogs as he is reactive. With the proper training/introduction he can live with other dogs as he lives with two now. A home with experience in guardian breeds and a fenced in yard is a must. Odin is obedience and crate trained, walks loose leash, knows basic commands, is working on off leash recall, and is house broken. He will come with a bag of dog food, leash, 54” (xxl crate), and his dog bed.

Story
Meet Rand! This 3 year old Husky/Boxer mix is a gentle, calm and playful boy looking for his forever home. Rand is house trained, crate trained, and walks well on a leash. He gets along great with other dogs, especially ones that will play with him. Rand would do best in a home with older children and a confident fur sibling to be his buddy would be a plus too. He doesn't seem to mind cats, but can get overly rambunctious in play and would do best in a home without them. Rand loves squeaky toys, going for walks, and relaxing by your side. He's not a fan of loud, chaotic environments. Rand bonds closely with his people and thrives when another dog is around for companionship and play time. He'll make a loyal, loving addition to an active family looking for an affectionate and laid-back pooch. Rand promises to be your new best friend! Apply to adopt Rand at www.tailsofhopewi.org!

Story
Hi future family, I'm Levi! I’m roughly a 5 month old male hound mix. I was found on the side of the road in a box with a sibling(who also has made it to a foster home). I’ve come along way from the streets of Oklahoma to the Midwest of Minnesota to my new foster home. Things about me: I enjoy walks around the block or more just as much as I like to snuggle on the couch to catch up on the latest shows. I like to give kisses and love ear scratches in return. I do well with other dogs my foster family has 3. Although my foster home doesn’t have cats or kids I believe I would do great with them with proper introductions. I'm a fast learner, I have already picked up on how to sit and I know to sit and wait for my food. I crate easily and have not made a mess in there. My foster mom is helping me to also learn stay, down, shake and to have a good recall. Once mastered I will be ready to learn more. I just can't wait to find my family - could it be you?!
