✨ ADOPTABLE: LADY ✨ 2 years old | Coonhound/Kelpie mix Meet Lady — a brilliant, soulful girl with a heart that’s earned, not given freely. She’s not the type to fall for just anyone… but when she chooses you, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime kind of bond. Lady has been thriving in foster care, showing just how incredible she is with the right mix of structure, patience, and love. She’s wicked smart (seriously!), and nothing makes her happier than having a “job.” Whether it’s training, scent work, or puzzle games, this girl lives to use her brain — and she’s always ready to learn more (especially if treats are involved ). She’s affectionate, deeply loyal, and will be your shadow once she feels safe. Lady is looking for a confident, patient human who understands working breeds and is excited to continue her training journey. Best fit: • Adults-only home • Yard to run OR an active lifestyle • Someone who loves smart, driven dogs If you’re ready for a devoted companion who will challenge you, grow with you, and love you fiercely… Lady is waiting. Could you be her person? If so apply here! https://www.pawsonthegroundco.org/adoptionapplication  April 20, 2026, 10:37 am

Meet Ronda!Ronda is a sweet, playful gal who may be a little shy at first—but give her a few days, and she’ll blossom into your new best friend. She’s an active pup who loves to run around and is learning to play fetch (though sometimes she gets so excited she forgets to bring the toy back!). Ronda is adjusting wonderfully to life outside the shelter. She’s mostly potty trained and will let you know when she needs to go out, but if she can’t hold it, she’ll use potty pads. She gets so excited to play outside that she sometimes needs a gentle reminder that it’s also potty time. Walks are still a little intimidating for her, but with patience and encouragement, she’s learning that they can be fun. Ronda is a Kelpie mix, though on the smaller side—she may even have some Chihuahua in her. No matter her mix, she’s a lovable, playful companion who is eager to bond with her forever family. She would do best in a home without young children. Slow introductions to other dogs are best, and while she’s still figuring out cats, she knows to leave them alone when told. Ronda can’t wait to meet her perfect match. Come see her at an adoption event—she just might steal your heart! ##2461439##

Story
Meet Maya – A Spirited Sweetheart Looking for Her Forever Home! Name: Maya Breed: Australian Kelpie–Terrier Mix DOB: December 7, 2024 Weight: 30 pounds Spayed, Vaccinated, and Healthy About Maya: Maya is a beautiful, medium-sized girl with a bright mind and a playful heart. She’s active, friendly, and full of curiosity. Whether it’s chasing a ball, going for a walk, or exploring the backyard, Maya is always up for an adventure. She loves people and enjoys being part of the action—but when playtime is over, she’s happy to curl up near her favorite humans. Breed Info – Australian Kelpie x Terrier: Australian Kelpies are highly intelligent, loyal working dogs with strong herding instincts. Terriers are energetic, clever, and full of personality. As a mix, Maya is the perfect blend of smart and spirited. She’ll thrive in a home that can provide both physical activity and mental stimulation. Expect a dog who learns quickly, bonds deeply, and loves to stay busy. Owner Responsibilities: Provide daily exercise (walks, playtime, or training games) Offer basic obedience training and positive reinforcement Feed a healthy diet and maintain regular veterinary care Include Maya in family life—she’s not a dog to leave alone or chained outside Keep her mentally and physically active to prevent boredom Provide love, patience, structure, and a sense of safety Things to Consider Before Adopting Maya: Time & Energy: Maya needs more than a quick potty break. She’ll do best with a person or family who is active and engaged. Finances: Dogs require ongoing expenses (food, vet visits, flea/tick prevention, grooming, toys, etc.). Housing Rules: Make sure your landlord allows pets—especially medium-to-large breeds. Allergies: Check for pet allergies in the household. Lifelong Commitment: Maya could live 12–15+ years. She’s not a temporary guest—she’s family. No Outdoor Chains or Isolation: Maya needs interaction, exercise, and affection. Leaving her tied outside is not safe or fair to her well-being. Why Maya Will Be a Great Addition: Maya is intelligent, affectionate, and ready to love her people with her whole heart. She’s great for active individuals, couples, or families who want a smart, loyal companion to join them on walks, hikes, or playtime in the yard. With the right environment and care, Maya will blossom into your most loyal friend—one who makes you smile every single day.

Story
Meet Hassan Breed: Husky / Kelpie Mix Sex: Male DOB: July 17, 2022 Weight: 66 pounds Health: Healthy and vaccinated Hassan is a striking, intelligent boy with soulful eyes and a strong, resilient heart. He was abandoned and rescued from a very busy roadway, where he was dangerously close to being hit by cars. Thankfully, he was saved in time — and now he’s ready for the safe, loving forever home he deserves. Despite his difficult beginning, Hassan has remained loyal, playful, and full of life. Personality Hassan lives peacefully with other dogs and enjoys being around humans. He loves going out for walks, running, and exploring the world around him. Playtime is one of his favorite things — especially chasing a ball or carrying around plush toys. When he first meets new people, Hassan can be a little reserved or cautious. But once he gets to know you, his personality softens beautifully, and he becomes affectionate and loyal. He just needs a little time to feel secure. Hassan does not like sharing his food, so he would do best in a home where feeding routines are managed thoughtfully and respectfully. Breed Info: Husky / Kelpie Mix This is a smart, athletic mix that typically brings: High intelligence and problem-solving ability Strong loyalty to their people Active energy that thrives with exercise A desire for engagement and purpose Hassan will do best in a home that enjoys walks, outdoor time, and mental stimulation. Owner Responsibilities Hassan will thrive with: Daily exercise (walks, running, play sessions) Continued positive reinforcement training Clear structure and consistency Managed feeding routines due to food guarding Patience while he builds trust with new people He is not difficult — he simply needs leadership, routine, and love. &#226&#154&#160&#239&#184&#143 Things to Consider Before Adopting Before bringing Hassan home, please consider: Do you have time for daily exercise and enrichment? Is your home and lifestyle stable long-term? Are pets allowed where you live? Can you provide structure and manage feeding separately if needed? Adoption is a lifelong commitment, especially for an active breed mix Hassan deserves a home that won’t give up on him. Vet Care Although Hassan is healthy and vaccinated, adopters should schedule a visit with their own veterinarian as soon as possible after adoption to establish care and continue his wellness routine. The 3-3-3 Rule First 3 days: Hassan may be cautious and observant as he adjusts. First 3 weeks: He’ll begin to learn your routine and feel secure. First 3 months: Trust deepens, and his loving, loyal personality truly shines. Patience and consistency will help him flourish. Why Hassan Is Special Hassan survived being abandoned and left in danger — yet he still chooses trust. He is playful, intelligent, and deeply loyal once he bonds. He deserves stability, safety, and someone who will show him that he is finally home for good. If you’re ready for an active, devoted companion who will stand by you with loyalty and heart, Hassan is waiting for you If you are interested in adopting this amazing dog, please follow the link https://www.ozzieandfriendsrescue.org/adoptions and fill out an application  Thank you for choosing Ozzie and Friends Rescue.

Story
Meet Selena—a 1-year, 4-month-old Australian Shepherd mix with a heart as sweet as her personality and just the right amount of spunk to keep life interesting. She’s the kind of dog who brings a fun, playful energy without being overwhelming. Selena is crate trained and walks nicely on a leash, making her a great companion whether you’re out exploring or just settling into your daily routine. Selena would do best in a home with larger dogs who can match her play style and energy. Like many herding mixes, she does have some prey drive, so she’ll need a home without small animals and with someone who understands how to guide her. She’s at that perfect age—past the tiny puppy phase but still young, eager, and ready to learn. With the right home, Selena is going to be an incredibly loyal, fun, and loving companion.

Story
Luke – The Farmboy Turned Hero Luke may not have grown up on Tatooine, but he definitely has that same wide-eyed curiosity and “ready for adventure” energy. This clever little guy is wicked smart and already figuring out the world faster than you can say “use the Force.” He’s working hard on potty training and has already mastered the dog door like a pro—because why wait for permission when destiny calls? Luke is highly food motivated (Jedi training snacks, obviously), which makes him a dream to train. He’s currently working on kennel training and sleeps about 4 hours at a time overnight, doing well in his crate during the day too—especially if you offer a worthy bribe.  Like any true hero, he’s got a playful spirit and a soft side. He gets along great with other dogs, thrives with that classic cattle dog energy, and after a day of zoomies and exploring, he’s more than happy to curl up and cuddle like the good boy he is. Perfect for someone ready to guide a loyal companion on his journey to greatness… lightsaber optional.To see more of Luke and his adventures, check out his foster dad's instagram!: @kodabearfosterpups Adoption fee includes the following: Spay/Neuter Rabies Vaccination Distemper / Parvo Vaccines (includes series of 3 for puppies) Bordetella Microchip with prepaid lifetime registration Deworming ##2679455##
