“HI ALL!!! My name is Tina (but I answer to hand signals!) I’m under 4years old as much as I love my friends here I really would LOVE a foster or forever home that can help me along- I have had a hard time training due to being deaf and some people just don’t understand me:( I would require a new parent to be very understanding and knowledgeable regarding hearing impaired pets or willing to work with me. I have been returned a few times due to my mouth getting me into trouble:( But, I know my forever home is out there!!! I’m the best girl ever I promise and I would LOVE a place to call home for now or permanently that has prior experience with a deaf puppy!!!”   ##575157##

Story
Finn is a three and a half year old Australian Shepard. We got him from a breeder and have had him since he was 8 weeks old. He is super energetic, will play fetch with you for hours, and is very eager to meet new people and play with them. He also loves to cuddle on the couch towards the end of the night. We are looking for a new home that will be able to give him the exercise that he needs. We just recently became parents and haven't been able to give him the attention he deserves for the better half a year. He just started to chew on things because we haven't been able to get him out as much. He LOVES to play with other dogs, but as soon as we introduced him to a new puppy to live with, he became pretty territorial. Ever since we've had him he has been defensive over his food. We had an incident where my 1-year old son was dropping some food on the floor and Finn came up and tried to eat it. My son reached for him and Finn bit him. No small kids or other dogs in the home plz

Story
Socks was born on July 5th 2023. He is super sweet and good with kids, cats, and other dogs. He's very sweet and wants to please. He has a ton of energy and loves attention so much. He loves being outside and would be great on a large property home where he can run and explore. Unfortunately he has developed litter mate syndrome and is not thriving in the way I know he could if her weren't constantly being challenged by his littermate for the Alpha Role and cowering down to him. Please consider adopting this sweet boy. We love him so much already but only intended to foster. I highly recommend crating at first. Socks has always had access to go potty outside at his own free will. He was kept in our heated garage with a doggy door to the fenced in back yard. Although he knows not to go in the house and is inside when we are home from work and on weekends, he hasn't been required to "hold it" since he only comes in the house if we are home and we frequently offered to let him out.

Story
Iris is such a sweet and fun Australian Shepherd but due to a small house and the fact that she doesn't do well with our other dogs, she will have a better life in a different home. She is the smartest Aussie I have ever had - and I've had 4 of them! She loves to work, learn tricks, and hike. She is highly food motivated, highly motivated to please. She'll have her energy bursts, but once she gets her daily walk or play in, she wants nothing more than to snuggle up to you. She will be going to a professional trainer in May to help her with her stress levels - she is scared of strangers and is reactive. She does have some resource guarding - more so with dogs, but I would advise a house without young children. The trainers are going to help with the transition from our home to yours - we will be covering the expense of the "Transition Training". Even better, if you want to take her in May, you can take over with her Board and Train and the trainers will walk you through everything.

These pups are in Mishawaka, Indiana too!

Hello, my name is Orion.  I am just the sweetest boy ever.  I am great with other dogs, cats, and kids.  I lived in a home with all three.  I am here in the shelter because my family had a fire and they could not keep any of us due to having to stay with family and friends.  They were devestated to leave me.  I am potty trained, I don't need to be crated, and I am a gentle giant.  I would love to find a new home with kids as I adore them, but I'd be fine in a home without them as well provided my new owners agree to my cuddle requirements.  I love to run around the yard and play, walk great on a leash, and am also happy chilling on the couch watching football....or the Bachelor....whatever you like, I like.  Come meet me and see if we can be a good match. ##2012207##
