Story
Meet Mouse! A 2 yr old super happy mutt mix. Mouse weighs 29 pounds and she’s some kind of lab collie hound mix. Her mom was a pit mix and her siblings are all 75 plus pounds. Her bark is barely heard, but she is quick even for being a paraplegic dog. Mouse is dog cat, and every breathing animal friendly. Mouse suffered a spinal and neck trauma injury as a puppy that prohibits her from walking but that doesn’t stop her. Mouse does wear diapers as needed. She is active, playful, outgoing, and will give it her all to keep up with any dog. She does not have a off button so we make sure to monitor her activity and time spent on her drag bag, wheelchair/scooter/walker time. This girl has the spirit of a pack of wolves. Mouse is fully grown, we think. Last time the vet said so she gain another 10 pounds. Mouse does have limitations but nothing that she can’t overcome with help and the right family. We do so daily since she was 4 weeks old. She has all items above that come with her and a 2 months of all needed supplies upon adoption. Mouse microchipped, up to date on all appropriate core vaccines including lepto, rabies, dewormed, fecal tested negative, microchipped, neutered, and on monthly heartworm flea/tick prevention. Updated: 2/1/2023 www.animalhousesanctuary.org We believe training is an ongoing process that needs to be worked on daily. New issues that arise, need to be addressed and/or rewarded. Understanding that continued training is a lifetime commitment, is very important. Out-of-state adopters are welcome at the adopter's expense. Meet & Greets are a required before proceeding with an adoption. We DO NOT ship any of our pets.

Story
Meet Holmes!!! Holmes is believed to be a 4-year-old, Yellow Lab hound mix. He is amazing with dogs and cats and devoted and in love with all humans he meets. Holmes is extremely gentle but clingy and very praise and food driven. But his biggest motivation is people. Holmes has learned most of his basic commands including learning “not to bark excessively when excited or the need to communicate his needs/wants. He does need to be reminded to use his indoor voice, but overall he is eager to please and easily continues to learn with positive reinforcement and praise and lots of love and affection. His biggest motivation is his peoples' attention and love. All hounds are amazing but Holmes is extraordinarily awesome because he leads with his heart. Holmes is house and crate trained. He walks well on a leash. His recall is actually pretty good for a hound. Holmes will need a fully fenced-in yard and daily walks to let his sniffer work. The occasional car ride as needed is ok but definitely not his favorite as it does cause him some anxiety. He enjoys urban life and being surrounded by people makes him happy. Especially short drives to the drive through in town and down the road. An active, hands-on home with daily outdoor walks/adventures and someone home often would be best for Holmes. He thrives with all human companionship. I dare to say Holmes can be stage 5 clinger. Not the worse but clingy enough to honor the label.Holmes is house and crate trained, not distructive, up to date on all appropriate core vaccines including lepto and corona, as well as rabies, de-wormed, fecal tested negative, micro-chipped including free registration to adopters, neutered, and current on monthly heart-worm flea/tick prevention.

Story
Meet Byron! We believe he is a 3 year-old hound lab possibly staffy mix. He’s absolutely a super mutt mix and an amazing one too! He is young and active, playful and can be stubborn but ever so sweet and loving. He loves all he meets, he knows no stranger ever. . He is great with dogs, and cats, and best with older children as he is goofy and uncoordinated at times. Byron is friendly and outgoing and his joy is contagious. Byron can be mischievous if left to do his doing. He’s still very much a young dog with so much to smell, learn, meet,learn,and explore. Byron enjoys his daily routine exercise, playgroup, pack walks, and car rides as well as his training time. Byron is eager to please and extremely food and praise motivated. Fun is the key to his heart. He is very smart and easily picks up training. Byron also enjoys swimming, car rides, will never complain if his person wants to snuggle or cuddle either. Overall Byron is a very simple happy, fun pup. who enjoys life. Byron was originally from Puerto Rico but after a week in his new adopted home, the family decided they did not want a pup. Sadly he made it to the state just to be rejected. Byron is house and crate trained, up to date on all appropriate core vaccines including lepto, corona, and rabies shot, dewormed, fecal tested negative, microchipped, neutered, and current on monthly heartworm flea/tick prevention.

Story
Meet Sunny short for Sunflower. She is believed to be a bloodhound shepherd mix possibly retriever. a year old at most. Sunny was pulled from a local shelter Christmas of 2021 after a hoarding abandonment case of 27 plus fearful feral dogs left behind in a property. The home was condemned, disgusting filthy. A home in such condition, no animal or human should have to live in. Sunny and 3 others call the sanctuary home for the time being, all are doing amazing with their rehab, learning what life as a loved pet should be. Sunny struggles to settle in and takes more time then the others. She is the one that stresses easily when meeting new people but with a playful active dog mentoring her she does so much better. She slowly warms up some when it comes to people, still unsure if she wants human affection at first but will always take a treat, moves in for petting, willing to snuggle and even cuddle. Sunny loves all the dogs, is good with cats and small critters too. A 100% secured fenced in yard is a must, A home with other pets is required. At least 1 other balance playful, outgoing dog for her to follow/gravitate toward. Sunny has an amazing personality she herself is still learning about who she is. Always best to approach her slow at first. Sunny needs a lot of confidence still, and that requires a lot of patience with no set time frame and expectations ever. Allow her to live life 1 day at a time. Sunny walks amazing on leash, barks very little but barks. is very playful, loves treats, and eventually settles in. Sunny is house and crate trained, up to date on all appropriate core vaccines including lepto, rabies, de-wormed, fecal tested negative, micro-chipped, neutered, and on monthly heart-worm flea/tick prevention.

Story
Benny was originally born into the rescue in November of 2019 to two GSP mixes, Jack and Diane. Benny was adopted with his brother, Bo, and recently returned due to the owner moving. Benny is a very sweet boy who has the loving and sensitive German Shorthaired Pointer personality. He currently lives at a boarding and daycare facility and does well with other dogs, although he would be best in a home without small dogs or dogs. He is approximately 55 lbs. He also does great with children. Benny is a great dog who deserves to be in a home. He is potty-trained and is crated overnight, but he would prefer not to be. He likely would not be a good candidate in a home that would require frequent crating. Benny is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm negative, on HW prevention, and will come with a Seresto collar.
