Story
Scout, is a 10-year-old shih tzu mix who started life in a puppy mill, making her a bit shy around humans. But when it comes to dogs—especially Sophie—Scout is all in. Scout enjoys walks alongside Sophie, though she prefers to avoid grass.Sophie is potty-trained, while Scout prefers using a potty pad due to lingering effects from her early life.Her BFF Sophie, a 9-year-old beagle mix, is the ultimate social butterfly—she adores dogs, cats, people, and even carrots! She’s happiest on a stroll but also enjoys neighborhood watch duty from her favorite cozy spot. Though she was recently diagnosed with diabetes, she’s doing well with insulin management.Both pups are up to date on vaccines and looking for a home filled with love. Can you give this loveable, bonded pair a safe space? If you are interested in fostering, adopting, or fostering to adopt these besties, we`d love to hear from you!

Story
Meet Coco!! Coco is an estimated 11-month-old pup with plenty of smarts and energy! While we’re not certain of her exact mix—she may be part mini-poodle or mini-Aussie doodle—one thing’s for sure: she’s an adorable bundle of fun.She’s currently working on leash training and potty habits, and she does very well in her crate. Coco is a playful “mouther,” so we recommend a home without children under 10. She would thrive in a household with another dog who matches her lively energy and playfulness. Coco would be fantastic for agility training!Are you ready to keep up with this spirited sweetheart? Applications can be found at https://www.friendsofnoah-wi.org/adoption-application

Story
I adopted my dog, Belle, from the humane society in Jan. 2024. She was a gift for my daughter. Belle is kind, energetic, good with kids, other animals, and cuddly. This being said, she needs a wonderful home. We did have to potty train her ourselves (she is now) and still needs help learning commands. She enjoys walks and doest really pay attention to other dogs on walks. She has been around cats and other dogs, and does great. She also is good with kids.My boyfriend and I are splitting. I have signed my home over to him and am searching for my own home. Most places don't allow dogs or they have fees. I am staying with others and can't afford to have my dog or bring her with. He works long third shift hours and sleeps all day. He does not have the time for her. She needs a home that can love her and provide her with good exercise and has time for her. Shes sweet dog that needs a good family life. It is hard rehoming, but is in her best interest. She's spayed and vaccinated.

Story
We are carefully searching for a loving, furever home for Zeus.My family took him in after his previous owners no longer wanted him and were keeping him outside without shelter.We also found out that as a younger puppy, he was accidentally injured and never received veterinary care at the time, so he walks a bit differently(with just one of his back legs), X-rays show nothing is dislocated.Zeus is a big, clumsy puppy lol. He resource guards food and bones, so he must be the only dog in the home. Zeus does well with older children and would thrive in a home with a large, securely fenced yard and committed adopters willing to help him continue building confidence.With the right support, he will be an incredibly loving and loyal companion. I am his current foster and he has shown great strides in coming out of his shell and is waiting for his furever home! Meet-and-greet required before the adoption. Born May 26, 2025. He must be neutered when he is 1yr old to help control the pet popula
