Story
Mack is a big, handsome, friendly shepherd-mix male whose owner had to surrender him due to unforeseen circumstances. He's a little hesitant on first meeting, and seems to prefer women to men, but once he's over his initial shyness, he's a sweet, friendly, cuddly boy. He can be a little protective of his family, but does not get aggressive. Once he learns that everything is safe, he's back to being his friendly self. His former owner stated he does well with adults, children, other dogs and cats. We have not tested him with small children or with cats. He can be a little selective with other dogs. He has decent potty habits and is accustomed to being leash walked. He is crate-trained and does well during his foster family's absences from home. If you'd like to meet Mack, please submit an adoption application online at https://www.mistyeyes.org/adoptionapplication.

Story
Maverick is AKC registered He is 2 years old and full of life and such an incredible dog. We got him when he was only a few weeks old and we are the only family he knows, he warms up to people really fast and bonds with those who play with him and gives him treats etc. He needs a large yard to play in and would be great with other dogs to play with. I would prefer he goes to a home out in the county or someone who has a large land lot so he has plenty of room to run and explore. He loves going for car rides and to the park. He loves to play with other friendly dogs. He is an inside dog! Needs to go to a loving family that will let him live inside! He needs lots of play and exercise and a new family that can provide all the stimulation he can handle.

Story
iaro is a dog currently housed at Michiana Humane Society in Michigan City, IN. We are working with them to find a forever home for Kiaro. He came to them in April as an owner surrender. Owner stated she had gotten him on Facebook, and only had him for 1 week. He is approximately 5 years old, neutered, vaccinated, and heartworm positive. Heartworm treatment will be provided by either Michiana Humane Society or SAR. He does well with dogs and cats. Only adopters with past German Shepherd or similar breed experience will be considered. Upon assessment with SAR, Kiaro is a great dog who needs a confident owner willing to provide positive reinforcement training. He needs a patient owner willing to go slowly with him, and has some head-shyness. If he feels uncomfortable with your movements, he will provide a light correction, which can seem scary when coming from a 91 lb dog, but does not have the intent to hurt. He also needs some help redirecting his energy when excited. He knows commands and gets along with both men and women. His favorite volunteer at the shelter is a man. Kiaro loves to play, and will fetch all day. He will add a lot of love and entertainment to the right household! Although he is located in Michigan City, IN, transportation can be provided for the right adopter.

Story
Sheba is an affectionate 2 1/2 year old German Shepherd (and possibly Husky) mix who's happiest hanging out wherever her people are. She loves being active, whether it's going for walks/hiking, playing fetch or running around in the backyard. Curious and intelligent, Sheba is a fast learner and eager to please. This young girl has many great years ahead of her and will be a loving, loyal companion for her adopter. Sheba does need to be the only fur-child in her forever home. However, she has done very well with human children in her foster home. 😊 She is fully potty trained and crate trained. Sheba is fostered in Avon, IN and her adoption fee is $250. If you are interested in meeting this awesome girl, contact Barbara at 317.679.9391.

Story
*Currently off site, please apply to meet me!*Hello! My name is Egg Roll and I just keep rolling with energy and love! I am 5yr old and weigh 78lb. I was brought to the shelter by no fault of my own. I’ve been living shelter life for about two months now, and my friends here just don’t know why. They tell me I’m a good boy! I love treats, take them well, and will show you my sits for some! I also enjoy pets from my humans! I think I’d make an excellent dog companion! I enjoy walks, but can sometimes be strong on a leash! So, a harness might be best for me! It is unknown how I will do with other dogs, cats, and children, but slow introductions are always best for me to set me up for success! I really hope I find my forever home soon, so I can`t wait to meet you! Maybe you can come get to know me?! **Please apply on our website at indy.gov/activity/adopt-a-pet. Go to the website, click on the adoption application link, enter the information and hit submit. Once you have submitted your application please visit the shelter to speak with a member of our adoption staff. You can include multiple animals you are interested in on one application. Thank you for your interest in adopting one of our FABULOUS PETS! We hope to see you soon, The IACS Adoptions Team

Story
Well hello all you beautiful people! My name is Spirit and yes... I`m very spirited! I`m five years old and I weigh 67 pounds. I`m a German Shepherd and behave exactly how a German Shepherd would behave. My ideal adopter would have breed experience, and know exactly how dogs like myself behave. We have TONS of energy and loved to be exercised daily. We need mental and physical stimulation or we get bored quickly and end up finding things to do on our own... and usually the people aren`t too pleased about it. I`m a very friendly guy and I really love to play! I should be in a home with no young kids or small dogs. If I sound like your kind of guy please head over here and ask to meet me! I might need some time in my new home to decompress and process my new surroundings before meeting the whole gang. That`s ok though because IACS offers a cuddle before you commit program to ensure I am the best fit for you and your home. We`ll have pleanty of time to get to know everyone! *Please apply on our website at indy.gov/activity/adopt-a-pet. *Click on the adoption application link, enter your information, and click submit.

Story
Hello Everyone! My name is Beetlejuice! If you say my name three times fast.... I`ll try to run and meet you! I am a year old and weigh 44 pounds! Unfortunately I came in to IACS as a stray so not a whole lot is known about my life before I came here. I am a really friendly guy though and with these big ears of mine I`ll be an incredible listener! I just need someone to give me a chance! It`s hard to meet new people and pets quickly after leaving the shelter. I might need some time in my new home to decompress and process my new surroundings before meeting the whole gang. That`s ok though because IACS offers a 14 day cuddle before you commit program to ensure I am the best fit for you and your home. We`ll have pleanty of time to get to know everyone! *Please apply on our website at indy.gov/activity/adopt-a-pet. *Click on the adoption application link, enter your information, and click submit.
