Story
Rosie has been with us since she was a new puppy. She’s clever, sweet-natured and will absolutely be your shadow! She was raised with a bulldog, a coonhound, and several cats, but no young children. She’s very energetic and needs space to run, spin and play. She’s kennel trained, but doesn’t do well for very long periods of time. She loves anything on TV that has animals on it, from horse racing to Fantastic Beasts. The only reason I’m seeking a new home for her is that I’m starting school along with my full-time job, which would make her kennel hours too long for her temperament. She will make the right person a faithful and loving companion!

Story
Hi! I`m Chevy!Weight 47#I`m a classic stage 5 clinger, and my adopter MUST enjoy being constantly touched. If you`re on the couch, I`m on your lap. If you walk around the house, I`m walking right beside you, leaning against your legs anytime you stop moving. Privacy is not important to me. My love language in physical touch and you`re just gonna have to get used to it.I`ve been around plenty of dogs while I`ve been here and I do well at coexisting with others. I`m not particularly interested in playing or running around with other dogs, but I wouldn`t mind having a chilled, laid back buddy at home. Be sure to bring in any current dogs in the home with you to meet me!

Story
I am looking to rehome my full blood German Shepherd. I am unable to keep him due to having to go to a 4 month school. He is a good boy. He knows how to sit, shake, lay down, and cage. He will sit when he comes inside and wait for you to wipe off his paws. He will also wait to eat after you pour his food until you tell him he can eat. He does not try to run out the door when you walk inside or out. He can be very energetic or lazy. He will leave you alone if you just tell him to go lay down. He is potty trained. He does not do well with other dogs. But I never tried socializing him. He is also hesitant of guests entering the home, as he is a guard dog. I got him from the Ark Animal Shelter in Lagrange.

Story
OscarShepherd/ Rotty mix1 yr old76 poundsI was brought to the shelter due to no fault of my own.I am a very strong boy who doesn`t know how to walk on a leash. Hopefully, that will be getting better with consistent training. According to my previous owner, I like to run around, play with toys and balls, hang out with my people.I did find a couple of friends, Tundra and Bogart, who love to play with me! I am a big boy so a nice big yard would be ideal for me.If you love German shepherds, then you`ll love me.I can`t wait to meet you!
