Story
Meet Ladybug! Ladybug’s story didn’t start the way any dog deserves.When she arrived at the shelter, she was abandoned by the very person who should have loved her most, claimed as a stray with no name, no age, and no history. Thankfully, someone stepped forward to tell us the truth.Now? That’s all behind her.Today, Ladybug is a happy, goofy, tail-wagging girl who is ready to write a brand-new chapter. She absolutely loves meeting new people…and YES, she loves kids too! Just be warned—her excitement is contagious, and she may accidentally knock you over with pure joy!She walks nicely on a leash but is always ready to stop and investigate every smell along the trail. At 5 years old and 47 pounds, she’s the perfect size for adventures, cuddles, and becoming someone’s best friend.Ladybug has every reason not to trust people…yet she chooses love anyway.Could you be the family that finally gives her the forever home she’s been waiting for?Ask about Ladybug today!

Story
Meet Rock!Rock came to the shelter in May of last year and has been patiently waiting for a place to call home ever since. He was found abandoned at a local dog park here in Walworth County. Frightened and unsure of strangers, Rock wasn’t about to walk up to just anyone. A staff member and a Good Samaritan tried to find him the night before with no luck. Thankfully, that kind-hearted Good Samaritan came out the next day. With the help of her own friendly pup, she was able to gain Rock’s trust and safely bring him to us. Since that day, he’s been under our care, waiting for his fresh start.Rock is the kind of dog who makes you earn his affection — and that just makes it all the more special. He’s an independent guy who loves to explore the trails, take in his surroundings, and quietly observe the world around him. He may not immediately seek out attention, but bring out a treat and you’ll have his full, unwavering focus!Rock is a smart boy who already knows how to sit and will happily offer his paw in exchange for a snack — and yes, it’s quite the thick paw. He thrives with patience, consistency, and someone willing to let him build trust at his own pace.If you’re ready to give a deserving dog who’s had a rough start the second chance he’s been waiting for, consider applying to meet Rock today. His best chapter is still ahead — could it be with you?Adoption information•2 years old•Neutered•Current for vaccinations •Microchipped •Large boy! •Older children due to stories we were told about the previous ownerYou can call 262-723-1000 or email us at lakelandanimalshelter@gmail.com Please remember dog meetings are by an appointment with an approved application.

Story
Sasha is being fostered in PA. Sasha is a 6 year old German Shepard looking for love and adventure. She is a beautiful shining star who doesn’t like sharing the spotlight or your love of other pets. Sasha would have a great time in a fenced yard to roam and play but also enjoys long walks. She would do ok without a yard if she had an exercise buddy to take her on walking adventures each day. This very smart girl is almost completely blind, but may see some shadows when close. She is a quick learner. Sasha knows “Sit”, “Down” and is learning “Wait” (but really doesn't want to....hee hee). “Off” is still a work in progress because of her affection for humans and counter surfing. However she does not beg at the dinner table and rests quietly during that time. Sasha is completely house broken and has had zero accidents since living in her foster home. She is almost trustworthy in the house, as long as the counters are clear of food and the paper towels and toilet paper are secured LOL. Sasha is loyal and eager to please. She will make a wonderful addition to a family that will match her energy, love and affection. BDRA has voted against the use of electrical fencing effective immediately.

Story
My German Shepherd, his name is Roy. I’m surrendering Roy because I’m working to much and can not give him the time he deserves. I’m asking my neighbors for help during the day to let him out and now I think I’m asking too much of them. Roy is a very well behaved, house broken, loves to bark and love attention !
