Story
FOSTERED IN SIOUX CITY Name-Billy Bob Age-2ish. Exact age unknown but vet agrees around 2. Breed-Australia Shepherd What was your life like before NDCB/Where did you come from? I came from a breeding farm with 40 plus dogs. Who is your main caretaker/favorite person now? My foster mom but warming up to foster dad. Are you good with kids? Slow introductions are required, as I’m a tad nervous at first, but then I don’t mind them. What age ranges? 5 year old and up! Are you good with other dogs? Yes big and little. I love other dogs and would do best with a fur sibling Are you good with cats? Yes. I ignore them. I was raised with kitties so they are friends. Are you housebroken? Working on potty training as I’ve never lived inside a home before, but I’m super smart and picking it up quickly. What is your current potty routine? I am let out about every hour. Working on just going to door to go out. Do you like car rides? They are ok. I’m still a tad nervous as I haven’t had many of them yet. Do you like walks? Yes How are you on a leash? A little nervous at first but getting better. Do you like toys? Not at this time. I’ve never had toys before, so I don’t quite understand what they are just yet. Do you know any commands/tricks? I know my name. I will stay. And I can walk on my back legs. How are your house manners? I do not get on furniture. I am pretty respectable in the house if I do say so myself. Describe your personality-I will come up to my fosters for love and affection. I’m a little nervous but getting better. I sleep all night in my kennel. I love to get brushed. Describe your perfect home- My perfect home would be either a couple or a single person. I would like to have a brother or sister. Fenced in yard so I can run around and play! Somebody patient who will understand that I need a tiny bit of time to come out out of my shell but once I do, I will absolutely be your best friend for life💙

Story
Fostered in Sioux City Name- Felix Age- 4 Breed- Mini Aussie What was your life like before NDCB/Where did you come from? I came from a breeder who reached out to these amazing women at NDCB that came and rescued me. Who is your main caretaker/favorite person now? I love my foster mommy very much Are you good with kids? What age ranges? I live with a 9 year old foster sister and I love her. I am still a tad shy so I take a second to warm up, but I really do love kids and enjoy playing outside with them Are you good with other dogs? Yes, I have alot of other foster animals at my current house and I love them all. I'm starting to come out of my shell and run and play with them. Are you good with cats? Yes, there are cats in my foster home and I usually ignore them Are you housebroken? This is a new territory for me as I have lived outside for years so please have patience with me if I do have an accident but Im getting very good at going outside What is your current potty routine? My foster mom is home with me usually all day but I do go in a kennel at night to sleep and usually hold it all night. I love my kennel and love to curl up and sleep with a blanket in it. Do you like car rides? This is also a new territory for me so car rides do make me nervous but I am getting a lot better. I ride better in a car in a kennel so I don't get too nervous. Do you like walks? How are you on a leash? Before I came into this amazing rescue I had never been on a leash but I have started to learn that leashes are not scary and starting to walk on one. Do you like toys? I have just learned what toys are. I do love and toy thats soft and squeaky. What is your favorite toy? I love anything that squeaks. Do you know any commands/tricks? I have just started to learn what sit is. I also will now go in my kennel most of the time when you tell me to go in a kennel. How are your house manners? I'm learning to go outside to go potty. I am a pretty well behaved boy and love, relaxing on the couch. I also will curl up in your bed and snuggle. Describe your personality- I have really came out of my shell. I'm starting to learn that people are ok. Quick movements do still scare me at times. I don't mean any harm and will probably just walk away if I'm scared. With time and patience I will be your best friend. I have improved significantly since coming into rescue. I am the sweetest boy. Describe your perfect home- My perfect home would be a very patient, loving, caring owner. Im still scared at times so please understand that. I have started to really love my people and want attention and to get pet. I am very sweet, loving, and just want to find my forever home.

Rufus has done well with other dogs, especially those who are more laid back with their play style. As always, a meet-and-greet with any resident dogs is recommended to make sure everyone’s a good match. Rufus is looking for someone willing to give him a chance and a little patience—and he’ll reward you with loyalty, laughs, and love. If you think Rufus could be the right fit for your home, come meet him today! 🐾

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.January 12, 2026, 2:48 pm
