Story
Junior is a gentle, sensitive boy who does best in calm, low-key environments where he can truly relax and feel safe. He has a lot of wonderful qualities — he walks nicely on leash, rides calmly in the car, takes treats gently, and enjoys quiet walks where he can sniff and explore at his own pace. Junior has shown that he settles well with long-lasting chews and enjoys peaceful time with his people. In quieter settings like the park or on calm outings, he’s able to relax and enjoy himself. However, Junior can become overwhelmed when there is too much stimulation, such as busy environments, large groups of people, or too much interaction too quickly. When he feels stressed, he needs space, time, and gentle guidance to help him decompress. Junior would thrive in a quiet home with one or two people, a predictable routine, and a patient adopter who understands that he needs time to adjust. Slow introductions, calm walks, enrichment activities, and a low-pressure environment will help him feel secure. With patience, understanding, and the right setting, Junior has the potential to be a loving, loyal companion who just needs a chance to truly settle in. Adoptions are free and include support from our adoption team to ensure a smooth transition from the shelter to your home. Adopted pets are vaccinated, microchipped, and spayed/neutered before leaving with you. To view our current available animals, please visit: https://indy.gov/activity/adopt-a-pet.

Story
💜Hey there, I’m Juno! 💜 Looking for a loyal sidekick who’s part kiss machine, part adventure buddy, and part couch potato? Well, hi! I’m your girl! 🐾 I’m about 2.5 years old, current on all my shots, heartworm negative (yay me!), and I take my monthly heartworm & flea prevention like a champ. I walk like a pro on a leash and LOVE kids — more tiny humans to spoil me with belly rubs and treats? Yes, please! I do have some standards though… I insist on a sturdy, heavy-duty crate if I need to be crated — I’m too clever for those flimsy wire ones. Since upgrading to my fortress of solitude, I’ve been an absolute angel with crate and house training! I’d rather skip the drama with cats or small critters — no thanks! And I’m a bit picky with other dogs because, well, I like to be the queen bee. But honestly? Who needs other pets when you have ME and all my kisses?! 💋 So… got a heavy-duty crate and an even heavier-duty heart ready to love me forever? Come get your daily dose of Juno smooches — I’m waiting! 🐶💙 📌 Apply to adopt me through The Four Legged Ranch today! https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/FLR-A-798

Story
Summary from Gary’s Teacher/Trainer Summary Gary is a bright, affectionate, and eager-to-please dog who has overcome significant hardship and medical neglect. His biggest challenges stem from a lack of early socialization, resulting in mild fear-based reactivity during new introductions. Despite these hurdles, Gary shows excellent resilience, strong handler focus, and consistent improvement under patient, structured care. With continued training, confidence-building, and a calm adopter who provides guidance rather than pressure, Gary has the potential to become a devoted and well-mannered companion. He has all the makings of a wonderful dog, he just needs the right environment and support to help his true personality shine

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Rhea is a 4-year-old female Boxer who is spayed, vaccinated, house trained, and crate trained. Due to changes in our family structure and dynamic, we need to find her a new home. She is great with people, knows basic commands, and is an energetic, playful dog. She also loves lazy days and cuddling on the couch or in bed with owners, but she does fine sleeping in her own bed when asked. A PET-FREE HOME IS REQUIRED: Rhea has had issues with unprovoked aggression toward other animals (cats and dogs) in the home, so she must be the only pet. However, she typically plays well with other dogs at the park and on walks. She had littermate syndrome, which could contribute to her behavior towards pets in the home. She also has mild seasonal alopecia. Nightly melatonin helps and is a common cure. Please message me with a bit about your home and experience if you think you may be a good fit. Toys, feeding station, two beds, various blankets, and crate included. FREE to a good home.
