Story
This adorable-as-ever dude is Iron, and he is in-search of a forever family he can call his own! Iron (male) is a 1 year old yellow lab mix who weighs-in @ 50lbs. He was sprung from a very overcrowded shelter down south, and is now enjoying life with his foster family in Wisconsin…but he just can’t wait to find the family he can settle down with, forever! He is the SWEETEST boy, with so, SO much love to give. Iron’s all-time favorite thing is being held like a baby and getting allllll of the love + kisses + snuggles he can! He does great with both dogs in his foster home; he really seems to match their play-styles. When he came into the shelter he was with a 15lb pup, so he’s proven to do well with dogs both big & small, young & old. He’s a wonderful boy! He is kennel-trained and does great being crated. He sleeps through the night without a peep, but would most definitely prefer snuggling in bed with his humans if given the choice. Iron does pull a little on-leash prior to being able to potty, but after potty-time does pretty well! He will continue to learn and improve with additional training! He is definitely a people-pleaser and wants to do best by his humans. He’s currently working on not jumping + keeping all 4 paws on the ground, so young kiddos/toddlers may not be in his best interest…with his desire to jump + his strength, he does have the potential to knock them over! Iron does bark at “scary” people that he doesn’t yet know, so apartment living also may not be best for him. He would love a fenced-in yard, but also does great on a tie-out if provided plenty of exercise! He would do great with other dogs, or would also be just fine soaking up all of the attention for himself. Overall, he is the bestest boy with the biggest heart. He will make an incredible family addition, and is SO deserving of the forever love he’s been missing! If you think he sounds like the perfect fit for you, please apply + reach out via private message. Just ask for Iron!

Story
This adorable dude is Raptor, and he just happens to be in the market for a forever family he’s able to call his own! Raptor (male) is a sibling to Pumpkin, Solo, and Spice, and was born on 8/28…so is just now under 13 weeks old! He is as cute and snuggly as he is sweet. He loves to cuddle, and is an especially great assistant to his foster mom who works from home! Raptor loves chew toys, enjoys playing outside with the two other dogs in his foster home (& would especially adore another pup-friend in his forever home), and gets along very well with children. He is also kitty-friendly! Raptor sleeps through the entire night in his kennel and doesn’t make a fuss, but does definitely prefer to sleep in the bed with his humans. He is continuing to work through his potty-training (& is doing pretty well when provided with a solid, consistent routine), but is still getting the hang of knowing how to alert his people when he needs to be let out. He’s improving every single day! He is a smart guy (he already knows how to “sit!”) with incredible sweets. He loves everyone and everything; he will truly make the perfect family addition. If he sounds like he may be the one for you, please apply + reach out to us via private message. Just ask for Raptor!
