Yondu is a fantastic loving energetic dog. He is great with other dogs and cats. He loves to run and play fetch. He was born in August of 2024. We have had him since he was 8 weeks old. We just have a very busy schedule these days and do not feel it's fair for him to be couped up in a kennel for long hours of the day.

Story
Meet Rico, he is 8 years old and 35lbs.   His owner has cancer and can longer care for him so he is looking for a new place to love him through the next chapter of his life.  Rico is a handsome Aussie/Terrier mix of sorts! If he was a food order he would be ordered as one medium floof nugget, with a side of smiles- tail waggin sized, with all the dippin sauces of happiness. This guy has grins that just won‘t quit, loves him some car rides, enjoys being bribed with treats for tricks, isn’t much of a kisser, and relishes all the attention he deserves to receive.  Rico loves kids and loves to play tug with them or another dog.   Rico is easy to love, gets along great with dogs and and kids. He walks good on leash and is housebroken and crate trained. He is a true gentleman and is ready for that special person(s) to give him his well-deserved furever home. He is waiting to meet you! Neutered, heartworm tested, recent dental, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready for adoption!  He is hit and miss with cats so a calm cat that does not do much he would have less of an issue with.  An active cat that will hiss and get in his business is not a match.  To help pay for vet bills and care (transportation, food, toys, etc..) a $100 donation is requested at the time of adoption. All of our adoptions are contingent upon an approved application, home visit, reference check, obedience training agreement, and signing of adoption contract. All our dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped before adoption. Our dogs are companion animals that live indoors as part of your family. Please do not apply if your plan is to have them as outside dogs, garage dogs, porch dogs or outside kennel dogs.  We do not ship dogs.   All of our dogs are in private foster homes. We are not a shelter with hours. A visit can be arranged after an adoption questionnaire has been filled out and sent in. Please try to email first. We are all volunteers that work so we can not easily take or make phone calls.March 8, 2026, 6:28 pm

Story
Bandit is 7 months old. He loves everything and everyone. Very energetic and loves to play. Not 100% house trained but would say 90% of the way there. Needs someone who can give him a lot of time and attention. I would say he would be good with kids but he’s still puppy age and does the puppy nibbles. I love him but moving states away and can’t bring him. I want him to have the best life. I know they aren’t the best pictures of him, but he doesn’t hold still when a camera is on him.

Story
I got Ms. Molly Mae from a farm in Arkansas when she was about 10 weeks old. She is now a little over 2 years old. I’d describe Molly as a playful, energetic, sweet, protective dog. She will get the zoomies & run around the yard but is also the best snuggle bug when it’s time to relax. She will follow you to the bathroom & around the house like your own body guard. She has been to public dog parks, has lived with other dogs & infants & currently lives with a 6 year old. My only concern is she doesn’t know her size sometimes & can get a little too hyper. She is potty trained & crate trained. She has been spayed & has had her first round of shots (I have records) but not up to date shots. I will make sure that is taken care of. Im rehoming her for personal reasons that have nothing to do with how amazing she is. I’m looking for someone to cherish her. Whether thats a family with kids & other dogs or a single owner I just want her happy & taken care of.

Turbo

Australian Shepherd

Male, Adult
Lincoln, NE
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Turbo is a few years old Mini Australian Shepherd who is just beginning to learn what life outside of a breeder environment looks like. He startles easily and is still figuring out that the world, mostly humans, can be safe. Turbo is most comfortable in his kennel and is primarily kennel trained at this point, though he does bark from time to time and does have the occasional accident. He is housebroken for short periods but will need a patient home that understands accidents are part of the learning process and that consistency will be key to his success. Turbo is very fearful of people right now and is not the type of dog who will run up for attention from strangers. He also does poorly on a leash and is not able to walk on one at this time, so a secure setup (fenced in backyard required) and a commitment to slow, positive leash training will be important. While people are scary to him, he finds comfort in animals. He does well with cats and THRIVES around well balanced, confident dogs who can help show him the ropes and build his confidence. With time and consistency, Turbo has shown that he can form deep bonds, he has grown to love his foster mom and will climb into her lap for attention during quiet snuggle time in the house. Turbo is a sensitive, fearful dog who needs patience, structure, and kindness, but in the right home, he has the potential to continue building trust and confidence and become a deeply devoted companion. If you think you have the time and patience for a sweet pup like turbo, apply to adopt him at the link below. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdy9NUdRzsagXgNJ7xhCHp5LZnTUYFxN-2jh4HgXKTou9k-tA/viewform

Story
This sweet, soulful boy is ready for his next chapter… and we just know his perfect person is out there. Meet Jasper — a 5-year-old Australian Shepherd mix (maybe a little Border Collie, too 😉), and let’s just say… this boy is the full package. ✨ Here’s what we know about this handsome guy: • Neutered + up to date on vaccines • House trained (not a single accident 👏) • Uses a doggie door or politely waits to go out • Knows basic commands + minds well (with a few reminders 😉) • Walks well on a leash/harness • Crazy smart (like… watches TV and barks at animals smart 📺🐾😂) • Sleeps at the foot of the bed — your built-in best friend 💛 Personality: Jasper is affectionate, happy, and SO loyal. He loves his people deeply and just wants to be near you. The kind of dog who becomes your shadow… your comfort… your heart. ⚠️ What he needs: Jasper has had a tough experience with men in the past, but with patience and proper introductions, he is already making amazing progress. Because of this, his future home will need to: • Understand working breed energy & intelligence • Be patient with introductions (especially with men) • Provide structure, love, and consistency This boy is not broken — he just needs someone willing to meet him where he is and show him the world is a safe place again. And when you do? You’ll get a once-in-a-lifetime kind of dog. 🖤 The kind who watches TV with you 🖤 The kind who sleeps at your feet 🖤 The kind who will love you harder than anything 👉 If you think you could be Jasper’s person (or want to learn more), message us. 👉 Not the right fit? Please share — his person might be on your friends list. Because every dog deserves someone who sees their potential… not just their past. 🐾

Chip is a six year old Hanging Tree Healer (kelpie, catahoula, blue healer) mix. He is fixed, house broke, and loves other animals. Due to increased business and lack of spending time with Chip, sadly I am rehoming. He up to date on all vaccines and in great health. Chip needs to run, work, and have as much attention as possible. He loves long walks, and vary obedient. Thanks for reading.

Hey all, this is Archer. He is a 3 year old purebread Border Collie, great with our kids and other dog. We also have a Cat, and while Archer has never been aggressive of any kind, he has a strong herding instinct and will follow the cat around the house. We're looking to find him a new home for a few reasons, primarily we want our cat to be able to relax in the house more and not be followed so much, but we also want Archer to have a more active lifestyle. Ideally we could find him a home that has some wide outdoor space so he could run and play, and if he was given a job to do he would love it. We want to find Archer a great home with a more active lifestyle for him, so if you have any questions please let us know.

Story
Gail is a smart and eager to please beagle mix who is blossoming into a truly wonderful dog. Gail was severely under socialized during her first months of life and had no understanding of how to exist with people. While in rescue she has learned all about how to be a part of a home, and now her foster mom is helping her to learn how to exist stress free outside of the house so that she can enjoy going on adventures with her future forever family. She is potty trained (with the rare exception of excited peeing), kennel trained and walks well on a leash when hiking on local trails.  Her ideal forever family will be an adult only home that has at least one other dog that likes to play. She is open to kids in her family’s future but would like to get to know her parents first. She is looking for a home with a fully fenced yard. Gail is not great at first introductions so we would like to find an adopter who is open to meeting her a couple of times before diving into forever with Gail. We promise she is worth the time investment.  Gail is spayed, microchipped and fully vaccinated.  Gail is a year old and 35lbs.   To help pay for vet bills and care (transportation, food, toys, etc..) a $200 donation is requested at the time of adoption. All of our adoptions are contingent upon an approved application, home visit, reference check, obedience training agreement, and signing of adoption contract. All our dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped before adoption. Our dogs are companion animals that live indoors as part of your family. Please do not apply if your plan is to have them as outside dogs, garage dogs, porch dogs or outside kennel dogs.  We do not ship dogs.   All of our dogs are in private foster homes. We are not a shelter with hours. A visit can be arranged after an adoption questionnaire has been filled out and sent in. Please try to email first.
