Story
Quincy is a 9 year old pure breed husky, that truly is man's best friend. He prefers to be around his person and getting his ears scratched and belly rubbed, enjoys and gets excited for vehicle rides and going on walks ( how ever he may pull a little hard at the beginning). Quincy doesn't mind being by himself, and is house trained very well but does get bored if left outside for longer periods time and may try to find a way to set himself free and go on his own little adventure. Quincy does well with most other dogs and does have a younger companion if your interested in her also- but there are some dogs where Quincy doesn't get along with ( he is 9 years old)

Story
Our Husker Weim Rescue Foster Bella is like peeling layers as this girl is learning about life. A lovely dream is to find that active weimaraner knowledgeable family who goes running, or walking trails. You know how that goes, a tired weim is a happy weim. This is Bella! Bella is 2years-7 months old so she has lots of energy yet! She came from a home with a lot of kids, but we recommend no little ones due to her energy and strength. Her favorite pal at doggy playgroup is a male Mastiff. We really don't know about cats. A fenced in yard would be awesome with the active weimaraner expeerienced home with Weimaraner experience. She is currently staying at S&B Kountry Kennel located outside of Omaha. Nebraska-Glenwood, Iowa & is working with their trainer on obedience, leash training and some resource guarding. If you are interested in Miss Bella fill out our application at huskerweimrescue.com & email it to us at huskerweimrescue@gmail.com.

Zeke

German Shorthaired Pointer Pit Bull Terrier

Male, 6 yrs 6 mos
Walthill, NE
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Zeke is a handsome dog, with the 2 breeds listed below. He is a little over 5 years of age, has been neutered and has all vaccinations. Zeke's story is much the same as numerous others out there. Zeke needs to be the only dog, and must have a secure fenced yard. He is not good with small dogs or cats. Zeke takes a little to get to know you and we think no small children. Zeke has been loved at one point and knows commands. He loves his toys and especially his toy bone that he shows off everyday. Zeke would be a great dog for a single or a couple. He would love you forever and just needs an opportunity to share that love in a fenced yard situation. Zeke's positives are he is loyal, loves to play and very handsome.

Nina

German Shepherd Dog

Female, Adult
Walthill, NE
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats,
Story
Nina is her name and she is a sweet girl that needs a home. She came with her 4 puppies, and they are all adopted to good families. Now it is her turn. Nina would work great on a farm or acreage, but probably not good with small dogs or cats and no chickens. She seems to have a protective attitude to her kennel, so she may be one who will watch after your home or farm when you are away. Nina is medium in size and has a fluffy coat. We placed her as a German Shepherd mix, and she seems to fit that breed. She loves people and does well on a leash. She has been doing great in her area with her friend Josie, so we know she can do well with other females. Sometimes it is up to the dog to choose the other dogs they like to be with. So, spayed, vaccinated and up to date, this girl needs a family.

Story
Meet Clara Bear a very sweet mixed breed that has a lab head and possibly a body of a chow chow. Clara Bear is close to 18 months of age. She is spayed, vaccinated and almost ready to go to a home that can offer her patience and love. Clara is shy and we are working on her social skills at this time. She is going for walks on the leash, and beginning to feel more secure. Clara seems to like kids, but we say 8 years and up at this point. Clara will need a fenced yard to help her feel secure, and someone who can take the time and patience to give her the reassurance she needs to be the awesome dog we know she is.
