Story
Hi there, my name is Lulu! I'm a 10 year-old spayed female Pit Bull Terrier. I am current on my vaccinations, microchipped and heartworm negative! 3 words that describe me: Cuddly, Spunky, Sweet Things my foster has to say about me: She's getting used to car rides and love pup-cups. She love walks and is SO GOOD with kids, even in groups. She seems to have a bit of prey drive (likes to chase after squirrels and bunnies in the backyard) She's such a sweetie and is definitely becoming one of our favs! Activity level/Energy Level: (1-10): 6/10 Housetraining Status: I was good at keeping my kennel clean but my foster mom says I need work on my potty training in my home. I'm getting used to my routine though! I should do well in a home: I should do well with children of all ages given proper supervision in the beginning. I should do well with other dogs given proper introductions and time to adjust because I did well in playgroups at CRHS. But, my friends at CRHS are unsure how I'd do with cats since I chase squirrels and bunnies in my foster home. My favorite activities are: I LOVE snuggling up with my humans and being involved in what they do. I love going for walks and really enjoy sitting out in the sunshine! Things I need work on are: Potty training routine Doggy day out notes: "Lulu is an nice and easy going dog. When on our walk she stayed by me and paid little mind to the 2 dogs that passed us and other adults. She did great in the car too. At Pet Smart we didn’t see any other dogs and the staff liked her. She allowed them to pet her. Overall, Lulu had a great day and is a relaxed, easy going dog." My adoption fee is: $125 *If you are interested in adopting, please start by filling out an application available on our website and email it to us. https://www.couleehumane.com/adopt-an-animal

Hi I’m Dorothy, I’m an 8 year old lab/shepherd mix. I am current on my vaccines, (soon to be) heartworm tested, spayed, and microchipped.3 words that describe me: Calm, friendly, affectionate.Things staff and volunteers have to say about me: “Such a lovely old lady!” “She’s a happy-sweet tail-waggin girl“Activity level/Energy Level: (1-10): 3/10 I’m an old lady but still have some pep in my step!Housetraining Status: With a consistent routine, her foster says Dorothy is fully potty trained. (She’s old girl!)I should do well in a home: I’m looking for a calm, adults-only home where I can feel comfortable and secure. While young children can be a bit overwhelming for me, I may do well with other dogs if introductions are done slowly and I’m given time to settle in. I haven’t had the opportunity to meet any cats yet, so it’s unknown how I would do with feline friendsMy favorite activities are: I love to play outside! I like to explore and follow my nose!Things I need work on are: I need to lose some weight, and I do pull some on leashAny special needs: N/ADoggy day out notes: N/ADaycare Status: N/AMy adoption fee is: $250Training Requirement if applicable: N/A*If you are interested in adopting, please start by filling out an application available on our website and email it to us. https://www.couleehumane.com/adopt-an-animal

Story
Hi there, my name is Nolan! I am a 7-year-old male mini poodle. I am current on my vaccines, heartworm tested, microchipped, and soon to be neutered. 3 words that describe me: Shy, Gentle, Mellow Things staff and volunteers have to say about me: I am originally from a breeder who is no longer in business. Due to my rough beginning I can be very shy with new people and situations. I will need an owner who is willing to go slow and at my pace. I don't really know how to be a dog, so I'll need help with that! Even while being terrified I have been the sweetest boy with staff and volunteers. Activity level/Energy Level: (1-10): 2/10 Housetraining Status: I am working on it. A consistent schedule with lots of praise will help me learn! I should do well in a home: While I'd absolutely love if I was adopted with my buddy Teddy, it is not required. I am just required to go to a home with another dog. Any children in my potential home will need to be 5 years or older to ensure my boundaries are respected. My friends at CRHS are unsure how I'd do with cats. My favorite activities are: Cuddling with Teddy and relaxing in a nice, calm environment Things I need work on are: I've had a rough life and don't really know how to be a dog! As such I'll need to work on building confidence, housetraining, walking on leash, and basic commands.

Hi there, my name is Teddy! I am a 4-year-old male mini poodle. I am current on my vaccines, heartworm tested, microchipped, and soon to be neutered. 3 words that describe me: Shy, Playful, Guardian Things staff and volunteers have to say about me: I am originally from a breeder who is no longer in business. Due to my rough beginning I can be very shy with new people and situations. I have learned that I LOVE squeaky toys, but I'm still working on learning how to be a dog. I see myself as Nolan's guardian, I will lay on him to shield him from the scariness of the world. We would love to go to a home together, but it's not required. Activity level/Energy Level: (1-10): 4/10 Housetraining Status: I am working on it. A consistent schedule with lots of praise will help me learn!
