Story
Meet Ghost. Is believed to be 3.5 years old, mom was believed to be a boxer husky black lab pity mix. The amount of personality this goofy looking pup has is extraordinary and out of this world. He is a sweet heart and joyful spirit. He is also a distemper survivor puppy left with permanent nerve damage to his nervous system. And after fighting to live litterly more times than we can count we are happy to share he always comes out stronger. Ghost has partial facial paralyzing, repeated tic movements, yet he is always happy and smiling. He has a huge heart full of love he is ready to share. Ghost is always up to going on walk, swimming, car rides, or just snuggles and cuddles as long as he can spend time with his humans he's always eager to please. He is amazing and strong will, and joyful all while spreading his love to all who is willing to share their time with him. Ghost is friendly with every animal of every species big or small, he loves them all. Ghost know all his basic command, muzzle trained, walks perfect on leash, great recall. He is all around awesome. Ghost loves food too, he is very treat and praise motivated as well. He is amazing with kids of all ages. Ghost is house and crate trained, up to date on all appropriate core vaccines including lepto and corona, as well as rabies, de-wormed, fecal tested negative, micro-chipped, and free registration, neutered, and current on monthly heart-worm 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 Willa!!! Rescued 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. Willa is believed to be at most 18 months, She and 3 others call the sanctuary home, temporarily, all are doing amazing with their rehab, learning what life as a loved pet should be. Willia is unsure and fears new people and change but with patience she surly warms up. She is independent some and still unsure if she wants human affection but will always take a treat, sit next to your feet, moves in for petting, willing to snuggle and even cuddle. Willa loves all the dogs,is good with cats and small critters too. Willa has a missing eye. She either was born without it or lost it to trauma. It makes no difference to her. She is no different than any other dog. A 100% secured fenced in yard is a must, A home with other pets is required. At least 1 other balance playful dog for her to follow/gravitate toward. Willa has an amazing personality she herself is still learning she has. She has a banshee screech that will knock your socks off and scare the hell out of you. But no worries its her excitement happy noise she makes when overly happy and or excited. Always best to approach her slow at first, lots of butt scratches, treats, soft voice and if you enjoying singing she enjoys being sung too. Willa 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. Willa walks amazing on leash, barks very little but barks, will make her presence known and will seek human interaction as she follow other dogs doing so. Willa 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
Eric or Prince Eric - as he likes to be called - was found wandering around looking for his castle. He is a very relaxed Husky who loves to be with people and snuggle on the couch. He is a very curious dog who prefers to be with people and is extremely athletic so he would need a 6ft fenced in yard. Eric has met other dogs very well and seems to be pretty social and comfortable around them. His play style can be overwhelming for some dogs, so a meet and greet will be required. Eric has met children and does very well with them! Of course, due to his size - supervision is always recommended. *Adopters must live in Central Indiana, no more than 45 min from downtown Indy *Please visit website for how to adopt: https://sketchymuttsandunderdogs.org/adopt *Please note that we do not operate on a first come first served basis.
