Story
Clovis’s story begins in heartbreak. Animal control officers were dispatched to a call about a “dead dog” on the train tracks. What they found instead was a miracle — a frail, emaciated dog, clinging to life, too weak to even stand. That dog was Clovis.We don’t know much about Clovis’s past, but his broken body and cautious spirit tell a story of hardship and neglect. Despite it all, Clovis chose to survive. And now, with time, care, and compassion, he’s learning that life can be gentle.Clovis is understandably wary of new people and unfamiliar situations. He’s people-selective and needs slow, respectful introductions. But once you earn his trust, you’ll find the most loyal, affectionate, and goofy friend you could ever ask for. Clovis doesn’t give his heart easily — but when he does, it’s yours completely.He needs a quiet, stable home with no other animals, where he can decompress and continue healing at his own pace. A fenced-in yard is required so he can safely explore the outdoors without fear.Clovis isn’t just looking for a home — he’s looking for a chance. A chance to feel safe. A chance to be loved. A chance to finally just be a dog.Give Clovis that chance, and he’ll give you everything he has in return.

Story
Our landlord is not allowing us to keep him. We have 30 days to find him a new home. It breaks our heart to do this but it has to be done. He is a great dog, very playful and affectionate. He loves being outside especially in the snow. He enjoys the cold.

I am grateful for love, affection, tummy rubs, and tasty treats. 3. I get along great with other large breed doggos and would love to have a friend to play with. Even tho I'm a big boy, I'm a gentle player. Anyone up for a game of zoomies?! 4. I am very food & treat motivated! I need to learn some nice manners and obedience commands, will you paw-promise to train me? It will help us bond & prove I'm the bestest boy around. 5.

Quick Facts: Age - 10-months old Kids - good with kids (7+) Dogs - good with other dogs Cats - no cats Training - needs obedience training 1. I was adopted a few months ago from a shelter. The family that adopted me had some life changes so they surrendered me to IDGSR. Now I've been patiently waiting to be adopted. 2. I'm truly the bestest girl. I am house & crate trained and I already know multiple commands! I love snuggling up on the couch & munching on sweet potatoes (see my video). 3. My previous home had a 9yr old kid and we get along well, if you have kids I'm sure we will be best friends. Remember, it's important to teach kids how to respect and behave around dogs! 4. When the weather warms up, I'd love to do all the outdoor activities! Let's go on a hike, take a walk, go camping, get a pup-cup, and hang out on a patio! 5. If you like puppy kisses, happiness, laughter, cuddles, and endless joy & fun - then adopt me & we will be besties! **SERIOUS APPLICANTS ONLY!

IDGSR Welcomes VIOLET into the safety of the rescue!! THIS DOG IS FOSTERED IN TENNESSEE & AVAILABLE FOR TRANSPORT ************** Hiya Friends!

I'm a petite girly, about 50lbs. If you've been wanting a more medium size dog that resembles a German Shepherd, in compact form, look no further! 3. I am house & crate trained and am a great car rider! Check out my extra video above to see me in the car. 4. I play great with other doggos! I've been loving running around the yard, sniffing every single blade of dead grass, and playing zoomy tag with the other rescue pups. I hope you have a friendly dog for me to play with! 5. If you've fallen off your 2026 health goals, let me help get you back on track! Let's lace & leash up and hit the pavement. I'm talking walks, runs, hikes, heck I'll even keep up with you roller blading. 6.
