Story

Meet Slick! A handsome Australian Shepherd born 1/2023. He came to NDLB in April 2024 from a breeder release in Missouri. He is very scared and nervous of any human touch. But with time, he should come out of his shell. He enjoys watching the other dogs in the foster home, but hasn't interacted with them just yet. He hasn't met a cat, so unsure how he would be with that. He is nervous currently, so would recommend older kids at this time. Being a breeder release, he hasn't received any sort of training or how to be "a dog". He is still getting used to being on a leash (he does flail around a bit still so we just go slow). I don't think he has been outside until NDLB as he is unsure what to do. So we are working on potty training. His fur may be in patches as he was going through demodex mange when he first arrived. This mange is the one that is NOT contagious to humans or any pets. He went through treatment of his foster home having to put two ointments on his skin twice a day. His eyes are two colored, or Heterochromia, where one is brown and the other is a sky blue. Adoption fee includes: Full veterinary exam, Alter, Prepaid microchip, dental, Dewormed, Rabies vaccine (if age appropriate), Distemper combo vaccine(s) appropriate to age, Bordetella vaccine, 4DX (over 6 months of age), Flea/tick and heartworm preventative while in rescue. Adoption fee: $750.00 Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 28, 2025, 2:35 pm

Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. // Find our applications at www.midwestanimalrescue.orgAdoption Fee: $350.00 plus taxMeet Scout, an athletic, affectionate mix who’s equal parts running buddy and cuddle bug. He loves to stretch his legs with a good run or yard zoomies, then happily settle in your lap for snuggles. Scout is selective with unfamiliar dogs and not a dog park candidate. With structure and thoughtful an slow introductions, he can do great. At home, he’s easygoing and loving, but he’d do best in a child-free home where he can feel relaxed. He’s had training in the past and thrives with routine, exercise, and space to run. Goofy, loyal, and endlessly special—Scout is ready for the right family to love him just as he is.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet. or When you adopt a pet from Midwest Animal Rescue and Services, your adoption fee covers: Microchip and registration, Core Vaccines including Rabies, Distemper and bordetella, age appropriate heartworm testing or FeLV-FIV testing, sterilization, heartworm/flea-tick prevention and deworming while in foster care.

Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. // Find our applications at www.midwestanimalrescue.orgAdoption Fee $350 plus tax Brock is fully house trained. He does his best sleeping in a room with a human and is accustomed to sleeping on his dog bed, but will wander and be busy all night if allowed. Brock understands basic commands. We are working on maintaining these skills when in stimulating environments, which makes it much harder for him. Brock is a very busy mind and wound benefit from someone with skills or someone who is ready to take on training to help create a physically and mentally stimulating environment. We are focused on leash walking, focusing commands ('look at me') retrieval play, and 'leave it' commands. Brock is very sweet and wants to be in someone's company. He loves morning snuggles and can be busy for hours playing fetch, walking, or if you are very daring- a little rollerblading. Brock would do best in a single dog home, with an active family or with a fenced in yard, as he is a high energy pup.

Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. // Find our applications at www.midwestanimalrescue.orgAdoption Fee $300 plus taxPatsy is such a sweet and loving dog. She is protective of her people and home. When new people come to her home Patsy wants to let them know they are in HER house, as a working dog, this is her job. We have been working with Patsy so she can have another job when new people come over. Patsy goes into her kennel on command and has a chew toy to 'work with'. She will bark for a bit and then calm down. She then can come out of her kennel to meet the new person while on a leash. She will need to continue this training, but is a very smart dog and catches on quickly. Patsy is good with our resident dogs and cat. She would do best in a home with another very active dog to play with or with a family who will exercise her regularly. She likes to talk (bark) a lot so would not be a good pet in a home with shared walls. She gets very excited when we get ice from our refridgerator's ice dispenser. She will bark and then get a toy and swing it around until she gets a piece of ice. She looks like she is smiling the entire time.

Story

Age: Approximately 2 years old and 25 days old Weight: 45.8 lbs Dog friendly: Yes Cat friendly: Yes Kid friendly: Older considerate kids only Potty trained: Yes Crate trained: Yes Seamus is a fun-loving, extremely smart, and affectionate guy who’s always up for an adventure! Whether you’re heading out for a hike, a car ride or just a walk around the neighborhood, he’ll be right there by your side. When it’s time to relax, he’s just as happy to snuggle up on the couch, rest his head on your lap & keep you company until you’re ready to get moving again. Seamus is unique in his focus on his humans. He looks to his fosters for cues, and has been extremely easy to train. He has a strong desire to please. That said, he also enjoys playing with his foster siblings (see video with the Newfoundland) and can entertain himself (see the other video for a demonstration of his ball skills)! Seamus didn’t have the easiest start in life, and was found in a field in Missouri, living independently. As a result, he is shy at first. In his foster home, he has thrived, returning many times over the love and affection he is given. If you think he might be the right fit for you, come meet him and let’s see! Adoption fee: $495.00

Australian Shepherd

Female, 3 yrs 8 mos

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Age: Approximately 3 years old Weight: 9 lbs Dog friendly: Yes Cat friendly: Unknown Kid friendly: Unknown Potty trained: Unknown Crate trained: Unknown Kylie is a shy, sweet, super submissive beautiful girl who was rescued from a commercial breeding operation, so she is quite fearful of new things. She does very well in a home with one person, likely female, and at least one dog to help her build confidence by teaching her how to dog. Her personality is goofy and playful and so silly, but she'll only bring that out when she's comfortable enough to do so. She needs a securely fenced in yard with preferably a small safe place to go outside for potty breaks throughout the day. She is good with potty training on a schedule, is quiet in a crate, but isn't ready for leash walking yet. The big world is a scary place for her. She really is the sweetest little thing and she doesn't have a mean bone in her body, but life hasn't been kind to her and she's just learning about what a normal dog is like. If you've got extra love in your heart to give, this is a girl that not only needs it but she will eventually give it back tenfold. If you think you might be the one to show Kylie how much love there is for her, please fill out an application to meet her. Adoption fee $695
