Story
Yara is a very loyal GSD. She is looking for a human that will have time to spend with her daily. She loves walks but still gets a little excited on them. Yara is looking for a home where she is the only dog getting all the attention. She does not do well with other dogs. Yara loves to snuggle her toys. She just started playing fetch at age 5 - she would rather just hang out by the fire while you pet her or do yard work. She is very healthy and has had no health issues. She (and her owner) will be pretty picky in choosing her new forever home because she knows she is very loved and her owner is going to have a tremendously hard time letting her go.

Story
Meet Juliana! She will involve herself in all the family activities. True to her breed, she’s vocal, but unlike most huskies, she would prefer to stay inside when the weather is cold. Juliana is laughably clumsy, and she’s awkwardly cuddly, with many of the typical husky characteristics. Juliana is great with cats, female dogs, and non dominant male dogs as she wants to be in charge. Her clumsiness means she may unintentionally knock a small child right over. Juliana would love a home with a doggy friend to play with, hearty cats to groom, and a person who doesn’t mind 50 lb dog sitting in their lap. A survivor of parvo as a puppy, Juliana flew all the way from Kuwait to find a better life. She is up to date on vaccinations, tested heartworm negative, spayed, and had a dental. Her prior parvo infection has left her with a weird neurological tick of her rear leg and weaker enamel, so no hard chews for her. She is kennel trained and mostly potty trained, but does still have accidents.

Story
Hello my name is Coco, and I am a male Black Mouth Cur. My breed is loyal,fearless, protective, trainable, and bonds strongly. I am a 50 lbs, am neutered and vaccinated and looking forever home with someone who will be patient and give me lots of love. Right now, I'm staying temporarily with a foster mom who's been taking good care of me. I have lived with kiddos as well as cats and have had multiple interactions with other doggos. I have only ever been an indoor dog, and I am the perfect size for that. I love to have the ball thrown for me, enjoy running in the backyard, chasing sqirrels, tasty bones and treats and most of all, love to sit in the presence of my humans. These last 6 months have been a bit rough for me, so I may bark at first or jump out of being nervous. However, just after being in my foster mom's life for a short time, I am calm and happy with minimal barking. I know multiple commands and can't wait to show you! I need a forever family by the end of March. ❤️

Janesville, WI

Story
Echo, a delightful canine companion, is searching for a fur-ever home. Echo is full of life and requires an adoptive family that can provide ample physical and mental engagement. As we have gotten to know Echo, we believe she would do best as an only dog due to the time it takes her to get comfortable with other canines. With that said, Echo's affection for people is boundless and she cherishes cuddling with her family after a busy day! Echo is making excellent progress in her training sessions, demonstrating her intelligence and potential. Her trainer believes that with her quick learning and energetic nature, Echo has the makings of a successful agility dog.

Size
(when grown) X-Large 101 lbs (46 kg) or more

Good with kids, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Looking for adopter. Amora is a great 1 year 5 mth old high energy puppy! She is a mix of Cane Corso Mastiff and Pitbull terrier. A complete indoor dog. Mostly potty trained but she may still have an accident on occasion if you miss her sign that she needs to go out. She still 'puppy piddles' when she's excited or hasn't seen you in a while like if you're at work and come home and she's excited to see you! She likes going on walks and cuddling in bed with you. Not sure how she would do with other dogs. She is good with the one that is currently in the household with her but it was a very gradual process. She has never been exposed to cats so not sure of her prey drive with them. I do crate her when I am not home because she is a nosey puppy and has been a chewer. She is spayed and up-to-date on shots. Adoption fee $200

Story
Hi there! My name is Franklin, and I’m a sweet boy who’s just looking for someone to love me for who I am. I’ll admit, I can be a little nervous when I meet new people, but I promise I’m worth the patience. I just need someone who understands that it takes me a little time to feel comfortable and truly show my affectionate side. Once I trust you, I’m the best companion you could ask for! I’m quiet, loyal, and love having a cozy spot to relax in. I’m not demanding, I don’t need a lot of fuss, but I do need a patient, understanding person who’s willing to help me feel safe and secure. I might not be the outgoing, super confident pup right away, but if you’re kind and let me come to you at my own pace, I will be your most loving and devoted friend. I’m desperately hoping for a forever home where I can be myself, take my time to adjust, and, in return, share all the love I have to give. If you think you could be the one to help me grow into the confident, happy dog I know I can be, I would love to meet you. Please consider giving me a chance – I really just want to find my special person. Come visit me at the Humane Society of Southern WI!!*Franklin`s care and adoption fee has been sponsored by Janelle S. - Thank you Janelle
