I AM IN FOSTER CARE! PLEASE FILL OUT OUR ADOPTION APPLICATION. ONCE APPROVED, PLEASE EMAIL US ( INFO@ANIMALHOUSESHELTER.COM ) OR GIVE US A CALL AND WE CAN SET UP AN APPOINTMENT FOR YOU TO MEET ME! I am 54 lbs, and I am looking for my forever home. Adoption Donation: $450 Zee’s journey started as a stray in Tennessee, and now she’s hoping to find the forever home she’s always deserved. This sweet girl has a gentle soul, but the busy shelter environment can be overwhelming for her. When meeting new people, Zee may quietly shake and need a little extra reassurance. The people who know her best—our kennel staff and dedicated volunteers—will tell you what a loving, affectionate dog she truly is. She thrives on routine, adores other dogs, and blossoms once she feels safe and comfortable. Zee isn’t looking for perfection; she’s looking for patience. She needs a family willing to give her the time and understanding to adjust to a new home and show her that the world isn’t so scary. In return, you’ll get the chance to watch a shy girl gain confidence and become a loyal, loving companion. If you have a kind heart and a little patience, Zee just might be your perfect match.

Story
Meet Petunia! Petunia is a sweet girl who recently arrived to us as part of a puppy mill release and is now starting the journey of learning what it means to be safe, loved, and part of a family. As a puppy mill survivor, Petunia is still adjusting to a world that is very new to her. She may be shy or unsure when first meeting new people or experiencing new environments, but with patience and gentle encouragement, she is beginning to show her softer, more trusting side. Petunia is crate trained, which helps her feel secure, but she is not yet house trained and will need a patient family willing to help her continue learning with consistency and kindness. In her previous environment, Petunia lived around children and did well with other dogs. With slow, proper introductions, she would likely also do well with cats. Watching a puppy mill survivor discover the comforts of a home is a gradual but incredibly rewarding process. Every small step forward—whether it’s relaxing nearby, exploring a new space, or seeking out reassurance—represents meaningful progress. Petunia is looking for a calm, understanding home where she can continue to build confidence at her own pace. In return, she has the potential to become a deeply loyal and loving companion. If you have the patience and heart to help a shy dog blossom, Petunia may be the perfect addition to your family. All of our dogs are dewormed, spayed/neutered, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and heartworm tested if they are old enough.

Story
Meet Mya! Mya is a sweet girl who recently arrived to us as part of a puppy mill release and is now beginning the journey of learning what it means to live in a home and be part of a family. As a puppy mill survivor, Mya is still adjusting to a world that is very new and unfamiliar. While she may be shy or unsure at first, especially in new environments or with new people, she is starting to learn that gentle voices, predictable routines, and kind interactions can help her feel safe. Mya is crate trained, which provides her with comfort and security, but she is not yet house trained and will need a patient family willing to continue helping her learn this skill with consistency and encouragement. In her previous environment, Mya lived around children and did well with other dogs. With slow, proper introductions, she would likely do well with cats as well. Every day is a step forward for a puppy mill survivor, and even the smallest milestones—like relaxing in a new space or showing curiosity—are meaningful signs of progress. Mya is looking for a calm, understanding home where she can continue to build confidence at her own pace. In return, she has the potential to become a loyal and loving companion who truly blossoms with time. If you’re ready to help a dog discover what safety and love feel like, Mya may be the perfect match for you. Mya is availbe for foster to adopt within 30 minutes of our shetler while we complete her medical. All of our dogs are dewormed, spayed/neutered, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and heartworm tested if they are old enough.
