Story
Meet Juneberry — lovingly called Junebee — a playful, intelligent German Shepherd mix who is finishing professional training and ready to find her forever home. Junebee has a big personality and a joyful, goofy spirit. She loves to run, play, learn new things, and be part of whatever her people are doing. She’s the kind of dog who will happily try to climb into your lap for affection — even though she doesn’t quite realize she’s a 67-pound shepherd mix. Junebee is currently enrolled in a structured professional training program where she has been working on obedience, leash skills, impulse control, and confidence. She has made wonderful progress and is showing just how smart and capable she is. She already knows many commands including: • Sit• Down• Stand• Heel• Place• Crate• Wait• Leave It• Come / Recall She has also started learning fun tricks like: • Spin• Reverse• Sit Pretty• Shake / High Five Her trainer describes her as very intelligent, eager to work, and full of potential. Junebee truly enjoys learning and thrives when she has structure, consistency, and a clear leader. With continued guidance, she will be an incredible companion for an active home. Her adopter will receive guidance on continuing the training she has already learned. Junebee loves to play with other dogs and would do great with a canine friend who enjoys her playful energy. Because she can get excited and sometimes forget how big she is, she would do best with older children. She does not do well with cats, as she enjoys chasing them. Junebee is housebroken, affectionate, and loves spending time outdoors. A secure fenced yard is recommended so she has space to run and burn off some of her shepherd energy. She is currently finishing her training and will be ready to go home on March 20, 2026, but applications are being accepted now. The right home for Junebee will be one that enjoys an active, intelligent dog who loves to learn, play, and be part of the family. Quick Facts About Junebee • 3 years old• German Shepherd mix• About 67 pounds• Good with dogs• Best with older children• Not good with cats• Housebroken• Currently completing professional training Her adoption fee is sponsored, and she will go home spayed, microchipped, fully vetted for one year, and on monthly preventatives.

Story
Duke is a fun loving, playful medium sized dog who was brought to us because his owner was no longer able to care for him. He's bigger than a lap dog but is small enough that he is very easy to handle on a leash. He loves all people and is very interested in the other dogs at the kennel. He came from a home with another dog, so is likely to do well in a house with other pets. He is active and will need a home where he gets outdoor playtime and a chance to run or go for walks. He loves to play with frisbees and ropes and balls, but also really enjoys getting one on one attention from the volunteers. His foster mom has told us some more about Duke. Duke adores kids, because they like to play with him. He is funny, respectful, and loves to cuddle on the couch. He is houstrained and kennel trained and gets along well with the other 2 dogs in the house. He enjoys being scratched and cuddled. He knows a lot of basic commands and will usually wait to get on furniture until he is invited. He is friendly with other people and sees everyone as a friend. Duke would enjoy a playful brother or sister, as he likes to play. He is improving with on leash walking, but is easily controlled and listens well. He is not bothered by other dogs, bicycles, skateboards, or cars during walks. He will hop on his front legs when he wants to eat and looks forward to dinnertime. He enjoys watching his humans cook so be prepared to have a kitchen buddy during meal preparation. He is very sweet, loving, and cuddly. He's just an all around loyal and loving guy! He would make a great addition to any household with other pets would probably be best so he can have a playmate. But, he is also independent and will play with toys on his own.  ##1642004##

Story
Dogs were born in the same litter in mid 2018. Both females with Copper being the largest and Olive being the runt of the litter. They’ve been with us since 6 weeks old and are great dogs. They’ve been through basic and intermediate training and need a home where their owners have more time for them and they can play outside more. Great with cats, kids, and other dogs. Only requirement is we want them to stay together for their wellbeing. Kennels, toys, and food included to help their transition to a great home that can spend as much time with them as we’d like to. Perfect home would be somewhere with a nice sized yard for them to play in and a living room with space for them to cozy up with their new family.

Story
I'm Athena and I am 1 years old! I am a smart, active girly that can't wait to find a furever home! I came into the shelter as a stray and my owners called and felt it was best they didn't reclaim me. True to my breed (shepherd mix) I have lots of energy and I'm very smart. That's part of the reason I ended up here. I kept getting loose, mostly breaking my tie outs. The lack of exercise and my need to expel my energy made for a dangerous situation because I kept getting bored and getting loose, so my owners were afraid I would eventually get hit on the busy road they lived off of. I would prefer a home with a fence but this isn't a deal breaker if you are willing to train me (like I said I am very smart!) and be sure to give me plenty of exercise. Daily walks would be a must if you don't have a fenced in yard. I'm not the biggest on toys but I do like a good bone to chew. I had young kids in my home and I was happy living with them. I am crate trained for when you need to go to work or make a grocery run, and I am also housetrained! What more could you ask for, I'm young and willing to learn so please take a chance on me and you wont be disappointed. I will always make sure you get your daily steps in!!I was adopted for a short time. I did really well with the other dog in the home, I was housetrained, I listened to basic commands and I did really well with the kiddos in the home! However, I did not make good friends with the cats and therefore did not make a good companion for this particular family. They were so sad they had to surrender me, and said if I was cat friendly, that they 100% would have kept me. I just happen to have a prey drive for small animals, including cats, which is another trait of my breed.Give the shelter a call at (574) 267-3008 or email them at info@awlwarsaw.com if you have any questions about me! If not, stop by the shelter at 1048 S 325 E in Pierceton, IN 46562 to look at me! No appointments necessary!
