Story
Milo was adopted from Lake County Animal shelter a year ago but after having to move twice he is not settling into my new place and had developed separation anxiety. I have been unable to leave the house with him destroying blinds and furniture. He is a wonderful companion but has become too much for me at this time.

Story
She is very good dog well trained. It’s totally housebroken and used to staying in the house. Would like someone that has a yard that she can run in. She is six years old. She has all her shots. Today the 26 of November she just got all of her shots three year rabies Bordetella heartworm check and nails trimmed, three year DA2PP, and Lepto. I also have 8 months of her Simparica Trio heartworm medication that will go with her. Very friendly with kids and people She loves everybody. I just can’t take care of her anymore due to health issues. I don’t really care about the adoption fee . I just want her to have a loving home with a yard to run and play in and people that love her. And please consider her I don’t want to take her to a shelter where she will be pinned up hope someone will pick her! Thank you! She has lots of toys and beds that will go with her.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Online Adoption Application Sawyer and his siblings came from deplorable conditions, where they were left outside at all times and surrounded by trash. Despite this difficult beginning, Sawyer is thriving in foster care and showing just how resilient and loving he truly is. He is incredibly sweet and happiest when he’s with his people. While Sawyer enjoys exploring and playing with his siblings and foster siblings, he always comes back to check in, making sure to share a few kisses along the way. One of his most endearing traits is the way he gently places his paws on your face as if to hold you still before covering you in kisses. Sawyer would do best with an active family and would love having siblings—furry or human—to play with. When the day winds down, he’s more than happy to cuddle up and enjoy some quiet time with his favorite people.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.February 3, 2026, 8:41 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Arya is a sweet girl who wants to find a hooman/family who will be patient with her and help her come out of her shell.  Once she warms up, she loves butt scratches and being petted. She is unsure of new people and needs time. She is very treat motivated and that does help!     Arya will need a home with a yard. She is getting better at going outside, but does not like noise or if it is too "peopley" as we call it. She especially likes going out at night when it is quiet and loves to do zoomies. She is really fast!  She loves soft squeaky toys, chewing on bones, and is both house and crate trained.    She does fine sleeping loose in the house at night. Arya is eating K/D prescription food. She does not have kidney issues, but her vet is recommending it due to the low sodium. She also is on an eyedrop medication every twelve hours. She had been drinking excessive amounts of water, and after bloodwork and other tests, her vet started a trial of this in March. Arya showed a good response to the medication and will remain on it.    Arya's favorite place to sleep is in a bed under my desk but loves other dog beds also.   For some reason she especially likes the small ones and curls herself up as small as possible to fit in them.  I believe she feels safe there. She does well with other dogs of all sizes, but can be dog selective and does not like to be disturbed when sleeping. Graduated from camp in 2024: Pet Rescue By Judy has teamed up with an incredible program called the Greyhound Advancement Center which will allow some of our dogs to attend a ten-week prison training program. The program originally started to help retired racing greyhounds learn how to “dog”. Greyhound racing is now illegal in our state, but the program worked so well that they decided to open up to other rescues and accept different breeds. Each dog is teamed up with an inmate who is in their dog training program. This program allows inmates to gain an important skill that they can bring with them when they are released. The head trainers are the best of the best and we are sure that these dogs are going to come out of this program with all kinds of tricks up their little doggy sleeves.  Our dogs are so blessed to be able to learn important obedience training to help with their confidence and make them awesome additions to a family. We cannot thank Greyhound Advancement Center enough for giving these dogs a leg up on getting into their forever home!  ****************************************** Arya was surrendered to PRBJ when her family had to move but were not able to take her. She is a sweet cuddle bug that would enjoy living in home with or without kids. She does great with kids of all ages and is great with dogs and cats too! Arya is housebroken, crate trained, and she enjoys sleeping with her family or in her crate with the door open:) As she is a bit timid, a fenced backyard is required to give her a safe place to romp and play in. New owners are encouraged to hang out with her while in the yard and leash walk her to better socialize and acclimate her to new surroundings.    Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.January 28, 2026, 10:08 am

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Our Sweet Surprise Litter!   Foster update:  Sweet Tower is settling in well and making great progress in her foster home! She is crate and potty trained and loves chew toys.   Tower is a talker—she loves to bark, whether she’s excited, curious, or letting you know she hears something outside. She is also strong, will need kind-patient parents that are fit to care for her. She’d do best in a quiete home with low foot traffic. Busy households with lots of comings and goings are a bit too overwhelming for her.  She’s still working on her confidence. Large crowds and noisy environments make her very nervous, so she needs a calm, patient family that will give her time to adjust and feel safe. Tower would thrive in a peaceful home where she can enjoy quiet companionship, gentle encouragement, and lots of love.  She’s such a sweet soul who just needs the right environment to truly shine! ******She would do best in a home where she is the only dog.******  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~   10 Adorable Puppies Looking for Forever Homes These ten precious pups came to Pet Rescue By Judy after an unexpected twist in their former owner’s life. Their previous caretaker, a kind woman with a heart for animals, had taken in several adult dogs under the impression that they had already been spayed and neutered. A couple of months later — surprise! — she found herself caring for a full litter of energetic puppies. Unfortunately, due to health issues, she was no longer able to care for the growing group and reached out to us for help. Now, these happy, healthy pups are ready to find their forever families!   Puppies require time, patience, and consistent training — but the reward is a lifetime of unconditional love.    A fenced yard is preferred so they can safely romp, play, and burn off their puppy energy ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~    Important Information for New Puppy Parents   Welcoming a new puppy into your home is an exciting and rewarding experience—but it also comes with important responsibilities. To help your puppy grow into a happy, confident, and well-adjusted adult dog,  dedication to obedience training, socialization, and consistent potty training is essential .   We  strongly recommend that the  entire family  participates in puppy training classes . This not only helps build a strong bond with your new pup but also ensures that everyone is using the  same commands and techniques , creating a clear and consistent environment for learning.   **Puppies thrive with structure, patience, and positive reinforcement—and so do their families!  Let’s set them up for a lifetime of love and success.
