Story
Husky lovers… we’ve got one that will steal the whole show. Meet Bernice — aka Bernie — and yes… she knows she’s stunning. Those ice-blue eyes don’t just look at you… they evaluate you. That little smirk? It says she already has a plan. And that Husky personality? Fully charged and ready for action. Bernie is one year old and everything people love (and respect) about the breed: smart, expressive, athletic, and just the right amount of dramatic. She bonds deeply with her people — the kind of dog who doesn’t just live in your home… she becomes part of your daily rhythm. Your sidekick. Your shadow. Your “what are we doing next?” partner. Bernie at a Glance • 1 year old Husky • Sweet and affectionate with her people • Highly intelligent and alert • Thrives with structure and engagement What Bernie Needs • Secure fenced-in yard (non-negotiable for this explorer) • No small dogs • No cats • No small children • Experienced owner who understands the Husky mindset Bernie isn’t a “set it and forget it” kind of dog. She’s a “let’s go, let’s think, let’s LIVE” kind of dog. If you love Huskies for their bold personalities, their brains, and their big energy — she is exactly what you’ve been looking for. And once she chooses you… you’ll know.

Story
❤️ Some call it boring. Sumi calls it SAFE. ❤️Meet Sumi, a breathtakingly beautiful Husky/Shepherd mix with long legs, a lean frame, and a face that could stop you in your tracks. She is absolutely STUNNING. But behind those beautiful eyes is a little girl who hasn’t always known kindness.Sumi and her sister spent most of their lives confined to a kennel. They missed out on so many of the simple things every dog deserves. Freedom, comfort, security, and the feeling of truly belonging somewhere.Because of her past, Sumi is shy. She’s learning that the world doesn’t have to be scary and that not every hand will hurt her. She doesn’t need a home full of excitement and adventure. She needs something much more meaningful.A routine. A predictable day. A soft place to sleep. A family that keeps its promises.Some people might call that boring. Sumi calls it safe. ❤️Sumi likes kiddos, is housebroken, and is kennel trained. She’s not asking for perfection. She’s just asking for patience, consistency, and someone willing to let her blossom at her own pace.And perhaps the most heartbreaking part? Despite everything she’s been through, Sumi still wants to give someone her whole heart.She just needs someone who won’t break it. 🥹❤️Please help us find this beautiful girl the peaceful, loving forever home she’s waited her entire life to know.🐾 Sumi is waiting at Marion County Animal Control.❤️ Please share. Her person might be just one share away.Thank you for taking the time to look at our precious "pound puppies" If you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to reach out to us directly at 730-272-1071. We would love to help connect you with your new best friend.

Story
🐾💗 TAIGA IS LOOKING FOR HER NEXT CHAPTER 💗🐾 Taiga has been doing SO well in foster care, and the more we learn about her, the more we keep wondering how this girl is still waiting. 🥹 She may be a little shy when something is brand new, but once she settles in, she is such a sweet, funny, affectionate girl. Her foster family has learned that Taiga is: 🚗 Great in the car 🏡 Housebroken 🛏️ Crate trained 🐶 Wonderful with her doggy foster sibling 🐱 Pretty much ignores the cats 👧 Great with kids 🦮 Continuing to improve on leash 💗 Happy to be part of regular home life And yes, she TALKS. 😂 Her foster mom says “hello,” and Taiga will often howl it right back. Say “outside” and she breaks into her little happy dance before heading for the door. Taiga has blossomed beautifully in her current foster home, but we do need to start planning ahead. Her foster mom will begin traveling for work in October, so we are looking for either: 💗 An adopter who is ready to make Taiga part of the family OR 🏡 A new foster home where she can continue thriving until her forever family comes along We would especially love to see her go straight from foster care into her forever home, but either option would be a huge help. 🐾 Dog friendly, meet and greet required with resident dogs 🐱 Cat friendly 👧 Kid friendly 🏡 Securely fenced backyard required Please share Taiga. She has already shown us what a wonderful family dog she can be. Now she just needs the right people to find her. 💗 📌 Adoption and foster applications are pinned at the top of our page. All pets in the home must be spayed/neutered and up to date on vaccinations. Vet references will be checked.

Story
Audrey’s story began in an overburdened rural shelter when she and her brother Kane arrived at just sixweeksold — orphaned, emaciated, and so cold they were barely hanging on after their mother was found nearby, struck by a car. Out of a litter of seven, Audrey and Kane were the only survivors. From the very start, she proved she was a fighter with a heart full of resilience. Now ninemonthsold, Audrey has blossomed into a confident, joyful girl who loves life with every ounce of her being. She’s an Australianshepherd and husky mix — smart, playful, and affectionate, with a spirit that shines wherever she goes. Audrey loves other dogs, especially big dogs and thrives in their company. She’s happiest when she’s playing, running, or splashing in the water, and she never turns down a good adventure. Audrey is brave, curious, and full of personality. She’s the kind of dog who wins hearts everywhere she goes and loves being close to her people. She and Kane will not be adopted together, and Audrey is ready for a home of her own — one where she can continue to grow into the amazing dog she’s meant to be. Audrey is being fostered in the St.Louisarea. To apply: https://www.speakrescue.com/pre-adoption-form ##2689461##

Story
Kane’s story began with heartbreak. At just six weeks old, he and his sister Audrey were brought into an overburdened rural shelter after their mother was found nearby, struck by a car. Out of a litter of seven cold, emaciated puppies, Kane and Audrey were the only survivors. They fought through parasites, illness, and sarcoptic mange — proving from the very beginning that they are resilient, determined little souls. Today, at nine months old, Kane has grown into the sweetest, snuggliest boy. He’s a smaller Aussie/husky mix with a gentle heart and a soft spirit.  Kane can be shy when meeting new people, but once he feels safe, he melts right into your arms. He loves being close and finds comfort in quiet companionship. Kane is wonderfully dogfriendly and gains confidence from canine friends. He loves to play, run, and explore, and he absolutely lights up around water — swimming is one of his favorite things. His zoomies are legendary, full of joy and silliness, and he’s happiest when he has room to stretch his legs and enjoy life. Kane and Audrey are not being adopted together, and Kane is ready for a home of his own — one that understands gentle encouragement, soft voices, and the magic of watching a shy dog come out of his shell. He has come so far, and he’s ready for the next chapter with a family who will love him for the sweet, tender boy he is. Kane is being fostered in the St. Louis area.
