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.

Story
Taz is very food motivated. He loves walks, sprinting, chewing bones, playing with balls and tug-a-war. He loves attention when he is in the mood. His kennel is his safe place when he is not in the mood for affection. Taz is stubborn, but very loving when he chooses his person. Taz is not an outdoor dog. He enjoys being outdoors for a little bit, but not all day. Taz is well trained and a great dog. He just has some quirks. He absolutely cannot be around other dogs. Taz currently is free roaming most of the day, but chooses to spend the majority of his day in his open kennel. Taz needs a tall, fenced in yard and walks. He is high energy and very good at jumping gates. He does OK with young kids. He prefers older kids. He will take time to adjust. He has separation anxiety and has been with us for 6 years. We are only rehoming to give him what he deserves, which is not something we can currently provide. Taz comes with all his things including leashes, kennel, toys, beds

Story
Meet Cookie, a young, super-friendly boy with a heart as sweet as his name! This happy pup loves everyone he meets and is always ready to make a new human friend. His cheerful personality and affectionate nature make him an instant favorite wherever he goes. Cookie is extremely playful with other dogs and would thrive with a canine buddy who can match his energy. His playstyle is a mix of Rough and Rowdy and Push and Pull (Chase). He loves lively, paws-on play with his friends, like gentle wrestling and playful tumbles, as well as fun games of chase where he takes turns being the chaser and the chased. Because of his exuberant, wiggly nature, Cookie would likely do well with children, especially those who understand he can get a little carried away in his excitement. He is extremely treat-motivated, making training both fun and rewarding. Cookie is eager to learn, loves positive reinforcement, and would thrive with a family excited to help him grow into a well-mannered, happy companion. $135.00 Fee includes initial vaccines, worming, microchip with registration, and free vet health exam. This pet has been fed Country Vet Naturals, donated to us by Country Vet. Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 58 Age: 1yrs 2mths 1wks

Story
Sky is a beautiful brindle girl with a gentle heart. She may be a little shy when you first meet her, but once she feels comfortable, her sweet personality shines through.

Sky would do best in a home without kids, cats, or other dogs, where she can be the center of attention and thrive in a calm, patient environment.If you're looking for a loyal companion who will play hard and cuddle even harder, Sky might be your girl!$135.00 Fee includes initial vaccines, worming, microchip with registration, and free vet health exam.

Annie

Australian Shepherd

Female, Adult
Sioux City, IA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, House-trained,
Story
Annie is a 6-year-old Australian Shepherd with a playful spirit and a heart full of love! This smart, friendly girl is housetrained and ready to settle right into her new home. She enjoys romping around and would thrive with an active family who can keep her mind and body engaged. Annie gets along well with other dogs, though she can be a bit selective, so proper introductions are recommended to help everyone start off on the right paw. When she plays with dog friends, her style is gentle and dainty-more of a polite little prancer than a rough-and-tumble wrestler! Annie forms very strong bonds with her people and can be a bit devoted to "her person," so she'll do best with an adopter who can continue helping her feel confident and relaxed when sharing attention and meeting new people. Because of this, any children in the home should meet Annie beforehand to ensure everyone feels comfortable and set up for success. Cats are currently an unknown for Annie. She may especially thrive with someone familiar with her breed who can provide the guidance, structure, and reassurance that helps sensitive, loyal dogs like Annie shine. $135.00 Fee includes initial vaccines, worming, microchip with registration, and free vet health exam. This pet has been fed Country Vet Naturals, donated to us by Country Vet. Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 47.3 Age: 6yrs 5mths 1wks
