Story
Meet Minneapolis — a young Rottweiler puppy with a story that’s already asked a lot of her, and a heart that’s still learning it’s safe to trust again. She was found as a stray, injured from an encounter with another dog, and while her body is healing, her spirit is still a little unsure of the world. New things can feel scary, and she may take her time before she lets you see the brave puppy she’s meant to be. But underneath the fear is a soft, gentle soul just waiting for kindness to feel normal again. Minneapolis doesn’t need perfection—she needs patience, safety, and someone willing to go slow and let trust grow one small step at a time. With love and understanding, this girl has every chance to become the loyal, devoted companion she was always meant to be. The one thing we all can agree on is that puppies are adorable. They're ready to give you unconditional love and all the snuggles your heart can handle. We really want to make sure that you've thought beyond their undeniable cuteness. Puppies need structure and training. They only know what we teach them. When you adopt from Humane FW, you'll receive two group setting puppy training classes that will teach you basic puppy manners. This will give you and your new best friend a head start on bonding.

Story
Hi, I’m Kuma. 🖤You may remember me as Josie, but I have a new name now and I’m starting fresh.I’m a 7-year-old Rottweiler who was originally found as a stray in Saint Joe. Life hasn’t always been easy for me, and I carry some of the signs of being used as a breeding dog in the past. But through it all, I’ve never stopped loving people.I was recently returned to the shelter due to changes in my owner’s health, so through no fault of my own, I’m looking for a home again.I’m incredibly affectionate and loyal, and once I bond with you, I’ll be your shadow. I will be honest though—I’m still learning the rules of living in a home. Sometimes I get curious about counters or try to slip out the door, simply because no one ever taught me what was right and wrong before.But here’s the best part: I really want to learn. With a little patience, guidance, and love, I know I can be the amazing companion I was meant to be.A few things about me:• I may be selective with other dogs• I haven’t met cats yet• I have a huge heart and love my people deeply• I’m ready for a fresh startMy past hasn’t been perfect, but my future could be—with the right family.If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will love you with everything she has, please come meet Kuma at DeKalb Humane Society.I’m ready to start my next chapter… maybe with you. 🐾An adoption application can be filled out on the DHS website https://www.dekalbhumanesociety.org/adopt. Dog adoption fees are $250.00 for all puppies and adult dogs. Seniors are a donation of choice.Cats and kittens are minimum donation $50.00

Story
This sweet girl’s name is Cornbread, and just like her name, she’s warm, comforting, and hard not to love. 🐶 Cornbread is a 4–5 year old female Pitbull/Rottweiler mix who is a very good girl looking for the right home to call her own. She’s a strong, beautiful dog with a big personality and a lot of love to give to her people. Once she trusts you, she’ll be a loyal companion who enjoys being part of the family. Because of her size and energy, we recommend a home with no children under 10 years old. Cornbread would also do best in a cat-free home, and if you already have another dog, a meet and greet will be required to make sure everyone gets along. Cornbread is ready for a family that understands larger breeds and will give her the structure, love, and attention she deserves. ❤️ If you’re looking for a loyal companion with a big heart, Cornbread might just be your girl!

Story
Diesel is a very sweet, goofy guy! He is about 5 years old and has been with me for a little over a year. He is crate/house trained, but loves to sleep on the bed. He knows lots of basic commands, and is very eager to please. He would do anything for a treat! He does best with a routine(will sleep in but likes his breakfast by 8). He is a sensitive boy that loves to play outside/with people! He can be very active, but also would love to snuggle up to you for a nap. He does have a high prey drive, so isn’t good with cats, or small animals. He will keep all little critters (rabbits,raccoons etc) out of your yard! He gets along with most dogs, but definitely has a more dominant personality. I am looking to rehome him because sadly him and my other dog are both strong minded. I have had my other dog for 3 years and when I got him I hoped they would be best buddies.I would love for him to go to a great home where he can be more apart of the family and live his life to the fullest!

Story
Meet Rumi: a loving, affectionate angel wrapped around the soul of a tiny outlaw. Rumi's hobbies include giving kisses, making friends, zooming at unsafe speeds, and carefully evaluating every fence for structural weaknesses. She loves people, loves attention, and loves adventure—especially the kind she invents herself. This sweet girl has enough energy to power a small city and approaches every day like she's just had six espressos and received excellent news. Whether it's walks, playtime, or following you around the house, Rumi is all in. A quick note on security: Rumi does not believe in captivity. She views leashes as a negotiation, fences as a challenge, and closed gates as an intriguing mystery that deserves further investigation. If left unattended in a yard, she may decide she has important business elsewhere. We're pretty sure if Rumi had thumbs, she'd have escaped three times already. Her ideal family will appreciate her loving heart, her hilarious personality, and her commitment to living life at maximum speed. In return, she'll provide endless entertainment, unconditional love, and a daily reminder to double-check the gate latch. Dogs: Unknown, we rec. a meet and greet! Cats: I have lived with a kitty, but slow intro needed! Kids: Unknown, we rec. a meet and greet!

Story
🐾 Meet Frannie: a Boxer mix with strong opinions, expressive eyebrows, and the undeniable belief that she is qualified to judge everyone’s life choices. She will look at you like you’ve personally offended her ancestors… and then immediately ask for belly rubs. It’s a confusing but lovable system. Frannie’s daily routine includes supervising the household with intense side-eye, sighing dramatically at human incompetence (like not opening treats fast enough), and repositioning herself for maximum dramatic effect. If you drop food, she saw it happen. If you don’t drop food, she will question your intentions. Despite her resting “I’m disappointed in you” face, Frannie is pure sweetness underneath the sass. She loves her people fiercely, just with commentary. Think of her as your tiny emotional support critic who also demands pets as payment. Frannie is part elegance, part goof, and entirely unforgettable—a fluffy little courtroom judge who rules every room… but always rules with love.
