Story

Meet Rico, he is 8 years old and 40 lbs. (he can lose some weight)… 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 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.November 5, 2025, 6:43 pm

Story

Fostered in Sioux City Name- Bruno Age- 1-2 years old Breed- mini Austrian Shepherd What was your life like before NDCB/Where did you come from? I came from a home with 40+ other dogs Who is your main caretaker/favorite person now? My foster mom is my favorite person. Are you good with kids? Kids make me very nervous, so I tend to hide from them unless they are sitting by my foster mom then they arent so scary. But I am not mean towards children at all. What age ranges? The children in my home are 12, 9 and 7. Are you good with other dogs? Be VERY specific here. (Testing this tomorrow- he did find with friends chihuahua puppy tonight though) Are you good with cats? Unknown but probably ok as they lived with barn cats. Are you housebroken? What is your current potty routine? I am mostly house broke if you pay attention to my signals. I paw at the door when I need to go potty (after being shown where the outside is) Do you like car rides? I am ok with them. Learning Do you like walks? How are you on a leash? I am still learning that the leash isnt a scary thing. I will need patience and extra care when being placed on a leash. Do you like toys? What is your favorite toy? Toys are still very scary for me. I dont really know what they are, the squeaky ones are extra scary. But I do love bones- those are so good! Do you know any commands/tricks? I am currently learning to sit. And my foster mom is trying to get me to shake. How are your house manners? I am still very shy and I like to hide behind the couch or in my kennel since that is my safe space. I do like to watch the little humans from a distance. I do not get up on the counters or tables. The little human was even able to eat food sitting on the floor and I didnt try to take it. I dont get in the garbage. I dont even jump on the couch. But I do like sitting on it with my foster mom if she picks me up and puts me on there. I am still kind of frightened by the TV if it is too loud. Describe your personality- I am very shy, but I want to be loved so badly. It takes me a little bit to warm up to people. I am a very good boy who is very eager to learn and be loved. Describe your perfect home- I think a quiet laid back home would be best for me. With a fenced in yard since I dont do well on a leash and I am scared of loud noises and fast moving things.
