Story
🖤 Meet Bambi 🖤 > Bambi is a beautiful one-year-old Rottweiler who is looking for someone very special to show her what life is supposed to feel like. **** > At just one year old, Bambi is incredibly timid and lacks confidence. She was kept outside with other dogs and simply hasn’t had the opportunity to learn what love, affection, and the comfort of a family are all about. When you look at her, you can see the uncertainty in her eyes. She isn’t sure what to expect from people, and she doesn’t quite understand attention yet. **** > But underneath that timid exterior is a young girl who deserves the chance to learn. **** > Currently very timid and unsure of people **** > Lacks confidence and needs time to decompress **** > House and crate training are currently unknown **** > Bambi will need an adopter who understands that earning her trust may take time. She needs patience, consistency, structure, and someone who is willing to let her come out of her shell at her own pace. **** > An experienced Rottweiler owner with good training skills would be ideal. Someone who understands the breed and can give her the confidence, boundaries, guidance, and reassurance she needs could completely change the course of this little girl's life. **** > Bambi may not run up to you and ask for love. She may not even know what to do when you offer it. **** > And that's what makes her story so heartbreaking. **** > Imagine being this beautiful, young girl and not knowing that a hand reaching toward you could mean a gentle scratch behind the ears. Not knowing that someone sitting beside you could mean you're safe. Not knowing that a soft voice and a warm bed mean you're finally home. **** > Bambi doesn't need someone to save her for a day. She needs someone willing to teach her that she is safe, wanted, and loved. **** > With the right person, patience, training, and time, we believe Bambi can blossom into the confident, loyal, affectionate Rottweiler she was meant to be. ***&* > 🖤 Let's change this little girl's life. **** > She has spent her first year wondering what people want from her. **** > Let's make the rest of her life about finally learning what love feels like. **** > Could you be Bambi's person? 🐾

Story
Temperament: Playful, Happy, Lap Dog, Outgoing, People Centered, Easy to Train **** Yogi is a younger male rottie. Like many younger dogs, he likes to play and has energy to burn. **** Yogi is very free-spirited. He is a big ball of energy and love. He loves to cuddle and eat, He loves everyone, and has never met a stranger. He is great with other animals (cats and dogs) and loves kids. He is still learning manners, but his energy makes it hard for him to focus. He will even smile at you, just so you know how happy he is. He is very food driven, as the fastest way to his heart is through his stomach. He is crate trained.He is a great guy! Notes from Evaluator: Yogi is being surrendered because the family doesn't have enough time for him and have had some life changes. This is no fault of Yogi's! Yogi was raised with a cat. He was fine in an area with cats, rabbits and guinea pigs. He is house trained and crate trained. Yogi ate a treat from the floor and was gentle. He was a bit mouthy but gentle. He is totally fine with being stroked and appears in good health. He could use a bath to get his coat shiny. Yogi knows sit and shows trust on a leash. He wants to walk ahead of his person so he needs a little work. He does not resource guard food or toys. We met in a very loud pet store and he was an angel; no reaction to his surroundings. Overall Yogi is very easy going and will fit into any home and is very placeable!

MARR covers Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma and Wisconsin. Giana is being fostered in IN currently. However, transportation is available for adoptions within our coverage area. ❤️ MEET GIANA! ❤️ Giana is a beautiful 6-year-old Rottweiler looking for a foster or foster-to-adopt home! 🏡🐾 Giana is a big lap dog at heart who loves being with her people. She is affectionate, playful, confident, smart, and people-centered. She has no preference between men or women and is good with kids ages 10 and older. ❤️ 🎾 This girl knows how to have fun! Giana loves balls, stuffed animals, rope toys, playing tug, and especially playing in water. A sprinkler or hose is one of her favorite things! 💦 She’s food motivated, loves treats, and takes them gently. Giana has some great manners, too! 👏 She walks GREAT on a leash, is crate trained, has no separation anxiety, and knows sit, stay, wait, and down. She’s a smart girl who catches on quickly and can even ring a bell at the door when she needs to go outside! 🐾 Giana needs to be the only dog in her home. She is a very assertive female and can make bold moves toward other dogs, so she will be happiest and most successful as someone’s one and only pup. Her compatibility with cats is unknown. Her foster describes Giana as a great family dog who loves being with people. She has no known medical concerns and is ready to find a home where she can get all the love and attention she deserves. 🥰 Could you be the person Giana has been waiting for? ❤️

Story
From the Shelter: Roxanne has started very shy/fearful in our environment but is slowly starting to find her voice. It has taken her time to warm up to staff but once known comes a little more accepting. Roxanne does not like being touched around the face and does struggle to get away so we have been muzzling as precaution to get any work done on her. She needs a foster home environment that is quiet, can give her more one on one time, and proper socializing. We simply cannot provide that in this environment. ********** 07/22/2026 Update from Shelter: Hello! Just wanted to send a little update on our girl! We got a nice stroll around campus (slow and steady of course) which she very much enjoyed. She has been greatly improving with staff handling her and slowly becoming more trustworthy. ****** Today we were able to verify that she is not spayed - most likely had some litters in her day. Checked over her skin/completed another med bath and another round of antibiotics are on board for her skin as it still has some infection. We were also able to get her boosters done and got her Heartworm test completed which she was Negative for. Overall she did well with handling. Muzzled for blood draw and vaccines as precaution but she just basically shuts down in a submissive state. I have attached some updated photos and medical record for you! Notes from evaluator: When meeting Roxanne she was initially indifferent but was eventually able to interact and pet her (both male and female). She didn't react to other shelter dogs while we were there and never growled or barked. She was also fine with my 11-year old daughter. Roxanne isn't very treat motivated and would not take treats either on the ground or from hand; shelter staff said she normally takes hot dogs but even she couldn't get that to happen while visiting. Physically she looks amazing and is very healthy with a good walk and great stance. When on a leash she will follow, moderate direction needed, once she trusts she will follow you. Watched her with shelter worker she knew she was great. Roxanne flinched during loud noise, but no reaction good or bad. Repeated loud noise she has no reaction at all to. Big movements has initial flinch, but nothing more. She actively investigated the space we were in, did not avoid the people in the area, but also was not seeking them out. Would come as close as she needed to but that was it. She did not seek attention. After we were with her for an hour, I was able to pet her head, ears, even slowly massaged between her eyes as she laid down beside me Roxanne is absolutely placeable, she just needs time, security, slow intros, and calmness. I feel after a 2 week decompression with a foster she will be an absolute angel for someone. Roxanne has a sweet demeanor, zero aggression. If she gets an opportunity to be with someone in a loving environment where she can get acclimated to calm surroundings I think her personality will begin to come out. She needs to be the sole focus of an initial home. I wish we would have had more 1on1 time. She is such a sweetheart and just wants love.
