Story
Meet Noble! Noble doesn’t see or hear the world the way we do—but he feels it with every ounce of his soul. Although he is deaf and mostly blind, it doesn’t slow him down. This little guy is a ball of pure joy, chasing shadows, zooming around the yard, and following his favorite humans like the most loyal sidekick ever. Life with Noble is full speed, full fun, and full love. He’s a social butterfly who plays nicely with other dogs, respects his feline friends, and absolutely adores kids. Noble is still mastering “Puppy 101”—potty training, leash skills, and crate manners—but his eagerness to learn is endless. Could you be the one he’s been waiting to follow home?

Story
Meet Nora 🤍 an Australian Shepherd mix with the softest, gentlest soul. Nora is both hearing and sight impaired, but she is incredibly smart and learns new things quickly with kind, patient guidance. She experiences the world through touch and closeness, and she truly thrives when she’s near her humans while she explores and plays. When you pet her, she completely melts into your hands and soaks up every bit of affection. Nora is calm and chill, much more laid-back than your typical Aussie, and she’s an absolute dream in her crate, sleeping like a rock through the night. She enjoys human interaction, gentle play, and being guided as she learns about her surroundings. Nora is working on potty training and continues to make progress. She is a truly special dog who will do best with someone ready to offer love, patience, and connection.

Story
Check out our Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok for more pictures & videos of our adoptable dogs! To sponsor my trip to WI, go to  www.tailwaggers911.com  for more info! ***I am able to go home to my forever family right off of transport! You get a 5 day trial with me in your home. Put in your application soon!*** Please help me get out! I am currently in a place where there are lots of unwanted dogs and not all of us here get the chance I might have to leave! But in order to help me out of here to catch the ride to WI on FEBRUARY 13th and arrive on FEBRUARY 14th, I need *both* a sponsor, and a WI foster home *or* a WI adopter! I have a place for now, but I can't stay here forever and I am worried. The rescue has put a hold on me to save my spot on the trip up north to WI, but now they need YOUR help to get me there - don't wait!!! Updated: 1/13/2025 Dog Name: Cinch Sex: Male Estimated Breed: Australian Shepherd Mix Approximate Age: 4 years Approximate Weight: 68 lbs Spay/Neuter Status: Neutered Description: Cinch was owner surrender during an awful domestic violence situation in which his sweet momma had to leave town quickly and couldn’t take two big dogs with her. She was devastated to give these boys up and we can see why, they are big love bugs, they love to sleep on the bed, they love to chill on the couch- they love and bond with people quickly. He get along wonderfully with other dogs and kids! He is already housebroken and crate trained.  Cinch is unique- he is very cross eyed, he gets around pretty well and he does love people any less. We think it just makes him even cuter!! He is so precious and always smiling!! Help Cinch feel safe and loved in a home again! Adoption Fee: $450We are a Wisconsin state licensed dog rescue -WI# 402433   ***We do not have a central adoption center at this time. All our dogs are in private foster homes within WI. At this time, we only place our dogs in areas of WI. The breed of our dogs is our best guess with the help of our veterinarians. Our Weight Classes are as follows: 0- 25lbs - Small 26- 45lbs - Medium 46-89 - Large 90+ X-large If you are adopting an adult dog, which we consider 6 months of age or older, your adoption fee includes the following: Spay/Neuter, Rabies and Distemper shots, dewormed, flea & tick preventative, heartworm tested and microchipped. If you are adopting a dog younger than 6 months of age, the dog will be up to date on the shots as per the dogs age. The dog will be dewormed, flea/tick preventative and microchipped. We only spay/neuter our dogs once they're at least 6 months old. If you decide to adopt a younger dog than 6 months, they will need to be spayed/neutered by your veterinarian when they are between 6 to 8 months old. Proof that the spay/neuter has been completed will need to be submitted to Tailwaggers911. Once proof of the spay/neuter has been received, we will refund $100 of your adoption fee via Venmo, PayPal or have a check in the mail within 15 days. Once you are approved with our rescue, you can meet any one of our dogs within the fosters home. If you are interested in the dog you met, you can take the dog home under our mandatory foster to adopt program. You receive 5 days to see if the dog is the right fit for your home. If it is, we will conduct the home visit and finalize adoption. If it is not, it is returned to the foster. We are happy to find you another dog that meets your needs in your home. If a dog is listed as ADOPTION IN PROCESS, a family has met the dog and planning on adopting the dog after the home visit has been conducted. We always suggest sending in an application for a dog because there are times where the dogs are given back to us under the foster to adopt program. There are many reasons dogs are returned but normally it just was not the right fit for all.Please go to WWW.TAILWAGGERS911.COM under HOW TO ADOPT . We have an online application that is very easy to fill out. January 13, 2026, 10:01 pm

Story
I got luna from a breeder in Texas. She is mixed with a lot of things but the two most prominent are Australian shepherd and Bassett hound. She just turned two years old and is a very happy and energetic dog. She’ll need a home where she can run around and spend time with people. She’s extremely friendly and loves everyone she meets and is always happy for pats.

Story
Name: Packer Age: 3 months (10/21/25) Breed: Australian Shepherd mix Gender: Male Weight: 20 lbs Good with kids: Yes Good with dogs: Yes Good with cats: Curious, learning  Current on vaccinations: Yes Fixed: Yes  Adoption also includes Certified Vet Inspection, and prior vetting paperwork. Foster location: New London, WI Application & Website: https:/www.ourpackanimalrescue.com/adoption.html Bio: Meet Packer Packer was born on October 21, 2025, and made his way to Wisconsin all the way from Louisiana. He’s part of the “Super Bowl litter,” and while he was originally set to be adopted back home, his adopter backed out at the last minute. We can’t help but think it was fate, because a puppy named Packer clearly belongs in Wisconsin. Packer was the biggest puppy in his litter, and he carries that presence with a calm confidence. He’s an Australian Shepherd mix with a stunning, unique coat pattern and striking different-colored eyes that make him truly unforgettable. Compared to his foster sibling, Packer is a bit more shy at first, but he warms up quickly once he feels comfortable. He does great with children, shows gentle curiosity toward the cats, and already displays lovely manners for such a young pup. He also enjoys playing with his toys inside and exploring with his nose outside. Packer is currently in the very early stages of potty training, kennel training, and leash training, so he’ll need a patient, committed family willing to continue helping him learn and grow. His intelligence and eager-to-please nature make him a wonderful candidate for training. As an Australian Shepherd mix, Packer will likely be a moderate to high-energy dog once grown. He’ll thrive in a home that can offer regular exercise, mental stimulation, and opportunities to explore, whether that’s walks, outdoor adventures, or learning new skills. If you’re looking for a loyal, gentle puppy with a special story and big potential, Packer may be the one fate picked just for you. January 13, 2026, 5:35 pm
