Story
Rocco is extremely sweet and playful. He also loves to snuggle and sleep! He will be one next month. We have not been able to properly train him fully but he is crate trained. He has been around kids since coming home and is sweet with them, just hyper! We are only looking to rehome him due to our own personal medical issues and lack of time. He deserves so much more and we want to give him a better life. We were unaware of my husbands medical situation and with myself having chronic conditions, he is not getting the attention he deserves/needs.

Story
This is Rex! I got him a year ago from Metro Animal Services. He came neutered & with all shots up to date! He is super energetic & very human friendly. He adores attention & could play literally all day. He knows quite a few commands like sit, down, stay, & is extremely food & treat motivated. He loves to learn & jump around. He’s lived with my border collie for the whole year & they’ve kept each other good company. He also used to go to dog sitting and play with several other dogs throughout the day. However, I’ve come to the hard decision that as a nurse that works very long hours he’s not receiving the attention or time he deserves. I want him to find a loving home with people who can be there for him more often than I can.

Story
We are looking to re-home our Tootsie Pop. Our senior dog was her best friend and the past 3.5 years since we lost her have been extremely difficult on Tootsie. Now with two high-energy toddlers along with our full-time jobs in healthcare requiring frequent travel and long days away from our home, Tootsie spends more time in her crate than our hearts can handle any longer. We know she would do best in a home with another dog to keep her company again and we just cannot take on that responsibility at this time in our lives. So if you are perhaps looking for a companion for your dog(s), have at least a little outdoor space or ability to take her on walks, and TIME to give her the love and attention she so desperately needs, please consider bringing Tootsie into your family. She is 6.5 years old, crate trained, walks ok-ish on a leash (prefers to run wild!), loves people and other dogs and makes a great snuggle buddy. Please help us give her the life she deserves.

Almost 3 year old boxer/pit mix. Free to a loving, responsible family. His name is Bugs and we got him almost 7 months ago. He was my grandson’s and he asked me to take him so of course I did. He’s a great dog our problem is we work and travel a lot so I feel bad for the dog. He is neutered and has all his shots. I want to find a good and happy home for him. He’s wonderful with kids and is house trained. If interested I would like to meet you and see interaction bc he’s still a puppy and needs that attention.

Greta bulldog 2-3 yrs Spayed female ************THIS DOG IS LOCATED IN SCOTTSBURG,INDIANA************************** Greta is a VERY nice girl and will make a lovely companion for the lucky adopter. She is housebroken and is getting used to a crate at night. She loves to snuggle and get belly rubs. Greta does have an old injury to her eye and probably can't see much from that eye but it doesn’t seem to bother her and vet suggested leaving it alone. She is still a beautiful girl, deserving of a nice home. Greta weighs about 60#. Contact emelfoster@frontier.com
