Story
Adult (estimated between 2 and 7 years, exact age unknown) Male (will be neutered prior to adoption) Happy, outgoing, friendly boy Has done well with other dogs and children No known experience with cats Housetrained I'm a wiggly boy who adores meeting new people and making friends wherever I go. I've had a blast playing with other dogs and kids I've met, always up for a game or some cuddle time. I've mastered "sit" and with treats as my motivator, I'm ready to learn even more tricks. I'm already potty trained and I don't mind baths at all—I actually think they're pretty relaxing! Stuffed animals are my jam, and I love going for walks, though I need a bit of help with my leash manners when I get too excited and start to pull. If you're looking for a happy-go-lucky companion who's as eager for adventure as he is for affection, I'm your guy! The online adoption listing websites require that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our dogs. Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable so for most of the dogs we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We encourage you to select your new companion by considering each dog's individual personality and pet qualities instead of relying on a breed label that is only a guess.July 25, 2024, 6:10 pm

Story
Adult (estimated between 2 and 7 years old, exact age unknown) Male (will be neutered prior to adoption) 77.8 lbs. Loyal, affectionate, playful No known experience with cats, dogs, or children Housetrained I'm a sweet and affectionate guy who loves nothing more than being by your side. I'm playful and outgoing, and fetch is one of my favorite games. Squeaky toys are the best, and I can entertain myself for hours with them. I'm a smart cookie and already know sit, paw, and down, plus I'm very treat motivated, so learning new tricks is a breeze for me. I'm potty trained, too! I absolutely love giving kisses and cuddles. I'm a big, strong boy, and I can pull a bit when I get excited on walks, so I'll need an adopter who can help me with my leash manners and hold onto me while I learn.

Story
Hi there, my name is Slim Jim. Or sometimes it's Bubba. Or Bubby. Or Slimbo. Or Rambo. I have a lot of names. My foster family says I have a big heart, big smarts, and big farts!  I have a big heart because I love lots of stuff, like making new human friends and CAR RIDES. Seriously I have no sense of stranger danger and will try to jump in anyone's car for a ride. I love a good chew treat and cheeseburgers. I love my blankie and sleeping all snuggled up in my crate, so will you please tuck me in every night? I love snuggles and giving kisses, but maybe bigger kids would be best for me because I REALLY get into the snuggles and don't want to accidentally knock a tiny human down. I do NOT love the cold or rainy weather, but I love dressing up in my sweaters and jackets to stay warm! I love butt scratches, tummy rubs, all kinds of adventures, and learning new things.    Speaking of learning new things, I have big smarts in this big noggin of mine! I pick up on new tricks super fast and already know how to sit, lay down, shake, wait, back (to sit in the back seat of the car), cross (the street), and turn left (I'm working on 'right'). I am great at food puzzles, and especially love my snuffle mat. I am crate trained and super polite on my leash when we're out for walks. I even know how to use agility equipment and am learning how to use a doggy treadmill. My recent record is 13 MPH!   My big farts are not so bad if I use a puzzle feeder, because then I don't eat so fast. It's this stubby, snorty nose of mine, I can't help but take in extra air.   There are a few things I don't love, mostly kitties (I want to eat them) and other dogs (they scare me). I take a cheap, daily anxiety medication (cost is under $10/mo) which helps me be more comfortable and my foster family has done a TON of training with me. They are sponsoring a private training session for whoever adopts me, to set me up for success in my new home!    Also, because I have such big smarts I take some things as a personal challenge. Crates and fences, for example. I think they are puzzles to be solved! I need a beefier crate than most dogs and a solid plan to keep me in the yard if I'm off-leash, because if that fence isn't solid like Mount Everest I am outtie! But I don't chew on or damage things in the house, don't worry about that.    I've been waiting for a home of my very own for far too long! So if you're looking for a Very Good Boy who you can have a lot of fun with, please reach out and ask for me, Slim Jim aka Bubba aka Bubby aka Slimbo aka Rambo.         Approximate DOB: 2021 Foster Home Location: Madison    If you are interested in adopting one of our wonderful dogs, you can apply on our website: https://forms.gle/MGakwmFh92UiK9iM6     Please allow several days for us to process your application. We are a small, all-volunteer group and we are doing our best to work quickly! After the application is processed we will make arrangements for you to meet the dog that interest you. All of our dogs are raised in our homes and live with us until they are adopted. They live with us as part of our families so we know them very well and we can help you find your perfect dog!     Our adoption fees:  Adults (up to 7 years): $275 Seniors (8 years and up): $200     All dogs are spayed or neutered, dewormed, vaccinated for rabies, bordatella and distemper, tested for heartworm and microchipped.July 26, 2024, 11:13 am

Vinnie is a 4 year old pit bull terrior who I got from my cousin as a puppy. Due to college I must rehome him. He is a great dog. I am looking for adopters who are active people that like to be outside because that works best for Vinnie. Vinnie loves to go for walks and runs, that being said he needs exercise. He cannot be couped up in a house is whole life without proper exercise. That is a huge worry of mine in this rehoming process. He is afraid of other dogs but not aggressive. He is fine with cats, kids, and new people. He loves people! He does this one flaw....he likes to chew blankets, so keeping them out of his reach is best and keeping chewing bones at his disposal is a must.

These pups are in Jefferson, Wisconsin too!

1 year old Neutered male 40 lbs. Smart, loving, and loyal but shows "stranger danger" Gets along with other dogs Looking for a home with children 10 and up No known experience with cats House trained I'm a super sweet and affectionate young guy who gets along great with other dogs—I even went to doggy daycare! I'm full of energy and love playing tug-of-war, and when it's time to sleep, I like to snuggle up in bed with my people. Car rides and vet visits are no problem for me. I'm incredibly smart and know a bunch of commands like sit, down, touch, give paw, walk with me, place, wait, and spin. I'm very treat-motivated and eager to learn more. I'm potty trained and even know how to ring bells to go outside! I bond strongly with my people and am loyal to a fault. While I can be protective of my home and have some "stranger danger" issues, I'm a sweetheart who will be an amazing companion to someone willing to work with me on my trust issues. Let's tackle this together and become the best of friends! Thanks to a generous sponsor my adoption fee has already been paid!
