Story

Copper is a 3 year old German Shorthaired Pointer. He is AKC certified and his pedigree and up to date vet records are on hand. He is a very happy and very energetic dog that bonds very easily. I got him at 13 weeks old from a breeder in GA and moved to Nebraska right after. Unfortunately, I'll be moving overseas shortly and there won't be space for him to run or birds for him to chase. Before he left the breeders he was introduced to gunshots and water and when he was almost two years old he spend 8 weeks with a local trainer for bird dog training. He absolutely loves the field and recalls very well. He wasnt very focused as a puppy but had a lot of fun. He needs continued training on birds and retrieving. He is one of the most excited dogs I've owned or worked with and it'll be hard to say goodbye. He does well with our young kids and is very cuddly at home. He needs a home with someone who has time to keep up his training and take him hunting. All his gear can come with him.

Story

Duke heard that if he let's his foster mom scru behind his ears he'll get to hear the sound of his furever people coming to pick him up. So he's being the goodest boy and taking a bath. The only problem......he doesn't have furever people yet. He's still looking. He thought he found them but things changed and he's looking again. Dukes mom is a Yorkie, his dad is a wild card but he's not letting that slow him down at all! Duke still has some growing and vetting to do but he's ready for adoption on contract. Duke was born in November so he's still young and learning all the puppy things but hes such a good boy!! Can he be your good boy?

Winnie

Labrador Retriever/German Shepherd Dog

Female, Young

Hartington, NE

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained,

Story

Winnie was adopted as a puppy and lived her first few months indoors. After having to relocate, she transited to outdoors due to her owner’s living situation. She has been living on a small “hobby farm” for the last couple of years (cats, chickens, goats). She does great with other dogs, she LOVES to play! She also does well with cats and other farm animals! She also really loves a good game of fetch and looooves swimming, she could do both for hours. Due to my changing living situation once again, I will not be able to take Winnie with me. As she has not been indoors for a couple years, if she were to transition to this setting it would likely take some getting used to for her as she has been staying outdoors (in a garage if weather is cold or stormy). She would do really good with a family/home that allows her to run a lot! She has so so much energy, but is truly a big lover! Sad to part with her, but with me moving again, I will not be allowed to have her indoors with me.

Lucus

Border Collie

Male, 1 yr 1 mo

Hastings, NE

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Story

Meet Lucas! I’m a high energy fellow and very smart! Balls are wonderful! When I play ball switch, I catch it with my paws, then toss it in the air and dramatically chase it around on my belly, returning it for another toss. I would love to have a job. Busy dogs can get into trouble if their minds aren’t well exercised. I would not be a good choice for apartment living, or a couch potato life. An active life style and an experienced owner would be my definition of the perfect life. I weigh 38 pounds but may grow and fill out as I mature.**I am microchipped.

Story

Meet Lindie! Do you enjoy curling up on the couch with a good book? If the answer is yes, I’m your gal. I’m shy but not fearful. Go quietly slow and you will find that I have crawled into your lap for a little cuddle. You will not hear a peep out of me. A leisurely walk is all the exercise I will need. There is a special adoption fee. My staff will fill you in. There must be something very special about me. My adoption fee will assist in the care of others at the HPC.***I have been microchipped.

Bonded Pair

Lily

Story

Fawn & Lily are a bonded mother daughter pair, with Fawn at 7 years old and her daughter Lily at 3, and they’ve made it very clear they want to stay together forever. They currently live comfortably with other dogs and cats, though when a cat first enters the room Lily may loudly announce her presence before quickly settling in. Lily can be a little barky and slightly more shy at first, often taking her cues from her confident mom, but within about five minutes, both girls will be curled up in your lap soaking up attention. Both dogs are potty pad trained in the house. Fawn does an excellent job of going outside exclusively, while Lily is still learning and may rely on potty pads more often. In a new home, especially one with carpet, we do expect there may be a few accidents at first until they’re fully settled and trained to the routine. They kennel well when needed and happily share cozy spaces, especially dog beds where they love to snuggle up together. Their affectionate personalities are tough to pass up and they are devoted cuddle bugs who crave human connection. If you stop petting them, expect some gentle finger nibbling as a reminder that the love session isn’t over yet. Fawn and Lily are the kind of dogs who bring double the love into a home, and they’re ready to find a family who will cherish them together. If this duo seems like they'd be a good fit in your home, apply to adopt at the link below! https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdy9NUdRzsagXgNJ7xhCHp5LZnTUYFxN-2jh4HgXKTou9k-tA/viewform
