Story

Rio is a GSD that is 1 year old, we got him at 8 weeks old from a family friend who is a breeder of GSDs. We are rehoming him due to behavioral and personality changes that occurred after he starting having seizures. He was diagnosed with epilepsy in October 2025. He is on medication that he takes 2 times a day which control the seizures. After he had the first several seizures his personality changed and he is always in an excited state. We have small young children and no longer trust him around them due to more nipping than normal and he no longer respects boundaries. He has had the 7 week basic command training before his seizures, he still does recall all the commands but requires more attention that we can give now. He is incredibly smart and a would do well with some strict training. We tried more training sessions in Nov 2025 and the trainer said he is trainable but will require time. The trainer also recommended a home with no young children to give him the best chance.

Story

Charlie is such a sweet girl and it kills me to have to rehome her, but I have to go to Mayo Clinic in Minnesota to have some health issues addressed. She does not get along with other small dogs, and if any other type of dog shows her aggression or growls, she shows aggression back. She would do well in a home where it is just her. She loves people and children and is the sweetest girl.

Story

Meet Lafayette!A 44lb, 2-year-old male Australian Shepherd with a heart as big as his energy level. When he first arrived at the shelter, everything felt overwhelming and he was very skittish around people and new surroundings. Over a short amount of time, Lafayette has truly blossomed.Now that he’s feeling more comfortable, Lafayette is showing off his playful, fun-loving personality. He’s a high-energy boy who loves to play and would thrive in an active home that can keep both his body and mind busy. He’s people-friendly, enjoys attention, and doesn’t seem to mind the company of other dogs.Lafayette can get a bit jumpy when he’s excited, so he would do best in a home with older children who can handle his enthusiasm. With the right family, this smart and spirited Aussie will make a loyal, joyful companion.We do all adoptions with approved applicants by appointment only. If you are interested in adopting, please contact us via FB Messenger or email us at jcasreception@johnsoncounty.in.gov for an application.

Story

Rex is a special needs dog because he lost his front left paw to another dog when he was just a puppy. So instead of just giving him a partial leg, they took it off at the shoulder. He is a good dog and loves to play and cuddle. he has mostly been an inside dog because of his missing leg. He does tire easily went out walking because he hops on his right front leg. He is how strained and does not chew on anything in the house. He can be left alone in the house during the day while you were gone, but then needs to be let out to go to the bathroom. he needs a special home where he can be outside and not have to be locked up in a house or an apartment or even a small yard.
