Story
My wife and I have both been around Kiya since the day she was born. She was bred by two dogs I had given to my best friend at the time, one of which happened to be fathered by my husky. My wife took Kiya home at eight weeks old and we started dating a few months after, so she hasn't ever known any other owners. She is a very lovey dog; we've had her through professional training and have never really had problems with her until recently. We do still have my husky; he is now 12 years old. Kiya has never been in a home by herself, as we have always had another dog and have had multiple cats including one right now. Over the last few months, she has begun urinating on the floors of our apartment without warning almost on a daily basis. We are parents to a five-year-old and are not comfortable letting her play on the floor of her own apartment. We believe she is acting out against us as we are both full time students as well, so she hasn't gotten the attention that she was accustomed too.

Story
Elsa is approximately 2-3 years old and about 50 pounds. She is deaf but that doesn’t stop her from playing with other dogs and learning commands through sign language. She is very treat motivated and loves to be around people so training comes easy for her. Her food motivation has made her a little protective during feeding time and will need to eat and enjoy bones separate from other animals. She has really enjoyed playing with her foster brothers and has learned a lot from them so having a fur sibling would be good for her, but not required. She likes to chase cats so a home with no feline friends would be best for her. Elsa is very social and has been known to jump a fence to say hi to her neighbors so she will need to be supervised when outside. This sweet girl loves unconditionally and with all of her heart; if you can provide a safe, deaf-friendly home for her please fill out an application today! The suggested adoption fee for Elsa is $315. Bullies-N-Beyond ResQ Inc. is a 501(c)3, non-profit corporation that is 100% volunteer operated. Adoption donation fees are the primary source of funding for the cost of veterinary care for our animals. All dogs adopted through BNBR will have been administered their age appropriate vaccines which may include DHPP, Rabies, Lepto and Bordetella. All dogs will also be adopted out as already altered if of age, for those not of age, a voucher will be provided. The adoptions for all of our animals will take place in the Omaha, NE area and must be done by the adoptive family in person. We do not ship or deliver. BNBR does not adopt on a first serve basis. All available dogs are adopted based on their needs to provide the best fit home. ##1802192##

Story
Luna, a Pitty mix, was on the euthanasia list at an Oklahoma shelter before Bullies-N-Beyond ResQ saved her so that she can become a valued family member of some lucky family.  Her birthdate is November 2, 2022. Luna is a sweet, fun-loving girl who plays well with all the dogs she meets.  She truly loves all people, including children. She enjoys playing tug-of-war and playing with toys, which typically means pulling out the stuffing and squeaker.  She is somewhat timid around loud noises, such as when kids are playing basketball or volleyball.  Luna knows how to sit, lay down, and shake with both paws. She is potty and crate trained.  She enjoys eating and loves treats. This sweet girl will make a great companion for some lucky family out there! The suggested adoption fee for Luna is $365.  Bullies-N-Beyond is a 501(c)3, non-profit corporation that is 100% volunteer operated.

Story
Meet Steele! He’s a stunning 4 month old, 22 lb Pittie mix. He is currently all puppy. He loves toys, running around the backyard, and playing with the other resident dogs of all sizes. He was curious when introduced to the cats but they didn’t bother him one way or another. Potty training is going great. He’s using potty pads and learning to go outside. He’s doing great on leash training, knows “sit”, and is working on a few other commands. He’s a smart, fast learner and is treat motivated. Steele is crate trained and sleeps all night in there. He loves everyone, including kids. This handsome guy is ready to find his lucky forever family and continue his puppy training to be the best good boy.    Steele is neutered, fully vetted and vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, and ready to meet you. His adoption donation is $425. Please apply directly in the dropdown menu on our website at https://havenanimalrescuenebraska.org PLEASE SUBMIT AN APPLICATION AT: https://havenanimalrescuenebraska.org/adoption-application We do not have a facility. All of our animals are in volunteer foster homes. Once an application is pre-approved (contingent upon a home check) we will contact applicants that are a good match and set up a time for a meet. At that time we are happy to answer all of your questions. No inquiries prior to that please. All of our animals are spayed/neutered, examined by a vet, up-to-date on vaccinations, on heartworm and flea/tick preventatives, and microchipped. We adopt our animals as strictly inside companion pets. We will do a veterinarian reference check and a home safety check. We are located in Omaha, NE and we do not ship our animals. We are all volunteers so please be patient with us. Our requested adoption fees help go towards medical expenses, food, transportation, toys, and other supplies for our animals. We are a state licensed, 501c3 nonprofit rescue and the adoption donation may be tax deductible for you.  Thank you for choosing adoption!! December 8, 2025, 3:32 pm

Story
This is Kooper. I got him in San Antonio Texas about four years ago. He’s been a great dog I just can’t afford to keep him. I recently lost my job and I’m looking for a good home for him. He gets this skin allergy every fall and I have to squirt some omega fish oil on his food and it clears right up but other than that he’s in good health. I haven’t had his shots yet this year

Story
Neale is 4 months old now, and he’s learning quickly. He’s almost completely house trained and will usually ask to go out when nature calls. He is kennel trained and appreciates a frozen Kong for his longer confinements, such as when I have to leave for work. I hate to be putting him out there to be rehomed, but after doing a DNA test, my partner is uncomfortable with him being a majority pit bull. I didn’t know about this being an issue prior to bringing him home. He’s about 60% American pit bull terrier, 30% coonhound, and 10% other. He really is a good puppy, but he does need to get his energy out. I’ve been taking him out to parks or forest and fields where he can run. He does like to chew since he’s teething right now but he’s getting better at realizing he has toys for that. I’d recommend always having one on hand for him. Please let me know if you have any questions.
