Story

Arthur is a mix of Cattle Dog and Pembroke Welsh Corgi, born 10/27/24. He is fondly known as Arty. He is house trained, leash trained and knows some commands. He's still a young guy, so he enjoys being active and needs a fenced yard with room to run and play. Arty also likes to play fetch. He is friendly with other dogs and strangers. Arty is friendly with kids of all ages, but because of his activity level and herding tendencies, we recommend a home with older kids (age 6+). Arty's perfect home would be with someone who has a lot of patience and who wants to spend time with him. He is eager to learn and needs his person to provide him with training opportunities. He tends to bark at others when out on a walk and needs to learn manners and boundaries. Arty still has some puppy tendencies and he is a super chewer. He will chew on anything left in front of him - plan accordingly and he'll be okay. Arty gets excited around other dogs - basic training will help with this. Arty would do well with an active person, a couple or single person and with older kids that will play with him and give him lots of attention. He needs space to run and get his zoomies out. The suggested adoption donation for Arthur is $400, which includes a lifetime of free relationship-based training for any behavioral problems (not obedience training). Muddy Paws is a 501c3 non-profit organization meaning that part of your donation MAY be TAX DEDUCTIBLE. We are a 100% volunteer rescue committed to giving animals a second chance at life. All donations go toward that mission. Adoption fees are the primary source of funding for the cost of veterinary care for our animals. In 2022 alone, we provided animal Healthcare totaling over $399,000 covered mainly through adoption fees. Please Note: A Courtesy Post designates that an animal is still in the home of its owner and not in a Muddy Paws foster. This means that our exposure to the animal is limited since we are only assisting the owner in finding a new home for their pet. From time to time, owners find a new furever home for their pets outside of Muddy Paws Second Chance Rescue and there is a delay in removing them from our site. We apologize if the Courtesy Post you apply to adopt is unavailable for adoption. Information about the adoption process: All adoptions require a completed ADOPTION APPLICATION. Once your application has completed our prescreen steps, we will put you in touch with the animal’s foster to see if you and the pet are a good match. If so, we will arrange a meeting for you and the animal. 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. Please Note: We are a RESCUE, which is different from a shelter. We conduct veterinary and personal reference checks, and a Home Visit (Virtual in some cases) during the application approval process. We always select the right applicant for each animal, based on the animal’s needs. If you and the animal are not a good match, we will help you select another animal, or we will keep your approved application on file for 6 months.

Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Bella and her devoted brother, Baxter—a truly bonded pair of sweethearts who are ready to fill your home with twice the love! This sibling duo, approximately 5 years old, have been inseparable since they were puppies, originally coming from a breeder in Wisconsin. Unfortunately, their lives were recently turned upside down as they were lovingly surrendered following a death in their family and a change of living circumstances for their owner. Through this transition, their steadfast love for one another has been a comfort, making it clear that they would do best adopted together. Their family says the would do best in a home without young children as they are both very unsure and scared of young kids but may warm up to older (teen age +) children. They both loved their large fenced-in yard where they had the freedom to run and explore safely. They enjoy being outside but have never had the opportunity to walk on leashes, so they are working on their leash manners currently while with us and we already know they will catch on quick! They are very smart and eager to learn! These two are fully prepared to start their new lives right away: both are up to date on vaccinations, previously spayed/neutered, and have been microchipped for identification. If your heart and home have space for two amazing, devoted dogs, Bella and Baxter are ready to find their safe, forever landing spot with you!

Roux

Australian Cattle Dog

Female, Young

Lisbon, IA

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained,

Story

Meet Roux, a 9-month-old, 22-pound Australian Cattle Dog mix who decided the golf course in Independence, Iowa was her personal playground. She spent several days perfecting her zoomies on the fairway before the owner finally called Brett from the Corgi Rehab Sanctuary. Brett showed up expecting a Corgi… but surprise! Roux is definitely not a Corgi — so she joined us instead. Roux is a happy, playful girl who loves toys, fetch, and a good game of tug-of-war. When playtime is over, she’ll happily curl up in your lap for a nap (because being this cute is exhausting). She’s house and kennel trained, food motivated and learning her basic commands like a pro. Roux will need a physically fenced yard to safely practice her championship-level zoomies. One more thing — no cats, please. Roux thinks they’re part of the game, and the cats strongly disagree. If you’re looking for a fun-loving, smart, snuggly teammate, Roux is ready to trade the golf course for your backyard! Roux is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, heartworm tested and microchipped. If you would like to meet Roux, please complete the adoption application on our website: www.furfunrescue.org. If you have questions about Roux you can contact rox@furfunrescue.org or call 319-929-6657. Adopters must be within a two-hour radius of Cedar Rapids, IA.  Indoor homes only.  Adoption fee $300.

Koda

Australian Cattle Dog/Great Pyrenees

Male, Adult

Bedford, IA

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained,

Story

We adopted Koda from a shelter in 2021. He was a stray so there wasn’t much info when we got him. He is around 5-6 years old. He listens most of the time. He does know “lay down” and knows that he’s supposed to lay down in a specific spot. He loves to be outside running around or even just laying in the sun. He needs to have either a fenced in yard or an invisible fence of some sort as he will take off. Koda is well mannered while inside. He was crate trained, but hasn’t been in one for a few years unless he stays at someone else’s house. He has recently started to become aggressive to our other two dogs. It isn’t all the time, but is enough to be concerning especially with our infant son getting to the point where he could start walking at any point. Koda cannot be around cats. He is very aggressive towards them. He would do well as an only pet. He has done well in the past with children around 3-4years old and older but is unsure of our 10 month old son.
