Story
Updated 26Jan26 Jack Status: Available for Foster or Adoption Placement Type: Patient, experienced home recommended About Me Jack is a gentle, deeply sensitive boy who is just beginning to learn what safety feels like. He came from a very difficult situation and was found severely underweight, fearful, and unsocialized, having spent most of his life outdoors with minimal positive human interaction. Because of this, Jack is still learning how to trust people — but he already knows how to trust other dogs, and they are his greatest source of comfort. Despite everything he’s endured, Jack is kind, quiet, and cooperative. He is not broken — he simply never had the chance to learn that people can be safe. Personality Jack is extremely submissive, soft-natured, and gentle. He does not bark, avoids confrontation, and startles easily. Around people, he often keeps his head down and avoids eye contact — not out of aggression, but fear. Encouragingly, Jack has already shown small signs of progress, including his first tiny tail-nub wag — a big milestone that shows he is beginning to feel safe. Socialization Dogs: Excellent. Jack thrives with calm, confident dogs and gains confidence by following their lead. He plays appropriately and feels most comfortable as part of a pack. Cats: Great with cats. He shows no prey drive and ignores them completely. People: Fearful but very gentle. Jack has never shown aggression and responds best to patience, space, and low-pressure interaction. Training & House Manners Jack is not yet potty trained and is learning indoor routines for the first time. He is currently using a crate and puppy pads as he adjusts to life inside a home. He is not leash trained yet and requires slow, gentle handling. Everything about home life is new to him — but he is trying. Medical Notes Jack arrived very underweight and extremely hungry. He has significant tartar buildup on his back teeth with gum irritation, which made chewing hard food painful. He is doing much better on softened food, and his comfort has already improved. His teeth are scheduled to be professionally cleaned by the veterinary team. Jack is also currently undergoing heartworm treatment, which is being managed under veterinary guidance. He is otherwise stable and resting well as his body begins to recover. Energy Level Low to moderate. Jack is decompressing and spends much of his time resting. He does best in calm, predictable environments. Ideal Home Jack needs a quiet, patient home with: At least one confident, friendly dog Humans experienced with fearful or undersocialized dogs No pressure for affection A calm, structured environment Jack may not seek attention right away, but he forms quiet, meaningful bonds once he feels safe.

Story
I picked Chile up when he was 3 months old in Missouri from the breeder. He's from a pure line and I do have papers, I never registered him though. His birthday is March 4, 2021. He's a very sweet and loving boy. He's energetic, smart and loves attention. He has been around his cousin (Koda who is 4, birthday is November 11, 2021) since his cousin was born. They are 8 months apart and are attached to each other. I would prefer that they stay together so the re-homing process is not so hard on them and on me. I have really tried with all my being to keep them but my medical condition is just too much for me and it's making it worse.

Story
I bought Koda from his breeder in Missouri. I have papers on him but I never registered him. I brought him home at 6 weeks. He's 4 and his birthday is November 11, 2021. He's a very energetic and playful boy. He's very sweet and loving and always happy. He has been around his cousin since I brought him home. His cousin is a red tri named Chile, he's on here as well to be re-homed. But I would absolutely love for the 2 of them to stay together. They have never been separated and are very close/attached to each other. This is absolutely so hard for me to do but my medical condition will not be getting better and it's getting harder for me. I pray that the right person/family will love these boys as much as I do and they will have a very happy loving life.

Story
Updated 3Aug25 **Meet Kiko - The Couch Potato Connoisseur! ** Hi, my name is Kiko! Am I not the most handsome boy you've ever seen? If you enjoy quiet days and evenings snacking on the couch while watching Hallmark Christmas movies, look no further-I'm your perfect partner in crime! While I do enjoy my leisurely walks (think stroll, not sprint) and sniffing all the great smells outside, I'm also content to just lay at your feet or engage in a serious squeaky toy chewing session. Now, let's talk about snacks-I'm a bit of a connoisseur! I have a refined palate and can definitely tell the difference between a yummy treat and a green bean. Sneak a green bean by me, and I'll give you the side-eye of disapproval! *Car Rides and Social Skills* I also love car rides and being wherever you are! Just picture it: you, me, the open road, and a playlist of our favorite tunes. I'm the older guy looking for my next person to bond with. My prior owner was busy, busy, busy, which made me anxious and uncomfortable-too much excitement for my laid-back lifestyle! I can be a bit hesitant around new people, so I might take my time to warm up to you. If I'm not feeling social (which is often), I'll be perfectly content in my cozy kennel with my favorite stuffed carrot. I'm house-trained, love gentle pets and ear scratches, but I'm not really a cuddler. While I enjoy being near my people, I prefer to keep my personal space-think of me as a charming companion who values independence! *Training and Bonding* I know how to sit like a good boy and have fantastic recall-just call my name, and I'll come sauntering over like I'm the star of a slow-motion movie! I spent some time at Champion Farms in November 2023, where everyone learned a lot about me. I take a little time to warm up, but once I do, I bond faster than you can say "treat time! A quiet home suits me best, but one where I can still enjoy short leash walks with my person is ideal. My new human should possess some leadership qualities to ensure healthy boundaries-after all, I bond deeply with my favorite humans! Oh, and here's the cherry on top: My next home will receive a free in-home session with Edgar at The Champion Farm to ensure you get started on the right foot together. Think of it as a training montage for our buddy cop movie!
