Indy!
Indy is so excited to meet you, you and you! He loves everyone he meets! He is a young adult weighing in at 35 pounds. When he was surrendered the original owner said he was a German Shepherd/Heeler mix. While many feel sorry for him when they meet him, he does not see it that way! He radiates positivity and happiness. He loves everyone he has ever met. He loves dogs that love to play with him. He likes to chase the kitties in his home but will not hurt them. He does wish his people would never leave the house and prefers to never leave your side. Indy was originally an owner surrender to a rescue group in Kentucky because his needs were more than the breeder could handle. Indy suffers from Swimmers Syndrome. Swimmers Syndrome is a rare condition in which a puppy is unable to physically stand or walk, but instead lies flat on its chest and abdomen with hind legs extended behind and its forelegs extended to the front and/or sides. The only motion the puppy is capable of is paddling its limbs as though it is swimming. Indy is able to stand on his front legs and pull himself around that way. With his dragging and trying to stand, at times he does develop some sores and skin shearing and his hind limbs need to be wrapped or wearing sleeves/pants at all times. Because of his lack of muscle he does not have a lot of bladder control so he wears belly bands and because he drags his butt he wears a diaper. He has an easy therapy routine to maintain his range of motion and some swimming therapy to help maintain his strengthening. Indy is available for someone who is dedicated to learning his routine. We know that Indy may not be a great fit for every household but we know his perfect family is out there and he cannot wait to show them his sparkling personality and stunning smile!

Sampson!
Introducing Sampson, the handsome 6-year-old pup weighing around 60 pounds, who is searching for a patient and understanding forever home to help him navigate his anxiety and build trust. While new people and places can be overwhelming for him initially, Sampson blossoms with time and patience, revealing his goofy and playful side that his caretakers have come to adore. Creating a strong bond based on trust and leadership is essential for Sampson’s happiness and well-being. He thrives with guidance from his human and feels most secure when he can rely on their support. Sampson has mastered his basic obedience, walks well on a leash, and is both crate and house trained. He enjoys spending time outdoors, whether soaking up the sun or exploring hiking trails. Due to his insecurities, Sampson would do best as the only pet in a home without children. He is a perfect blend of chill and playful, making him an ideal companion for someone who appreciates outdoor adventures as well as downtime. With the right person who understands his needs, Sampson has the potential to thrive and bring joy to their life. To ensure Sampson’s success in his new home, training sessions will be provided to potential adopters. While he may require some patience and understanding, Sampson is a truly wonderful dog who is ready to find a loving family to call his own. If you are looking for a loyal and loving companion who will appreciate your guidance, consider opening your heart to Sampson and giving him the happy and stable life he deserves.

Walter is a lovable, goofy boy who is eagerly waiting for his forever home! At 2 years old and 39 pounds, this sweet soul is initially a bit nervous and shy around new people, experiences, and places. But don’t let his timid nature fool you! Once Walter feels settled and comfortable, he transforms into an endearing goofus, filled with playful energy and charm that is guaranteed to brighten your day.
Walter adores playing with his doggy pals, engaging in epic games with loud squeaky toys, and enjoying his favorite chew toys like antlers and Nylabones. His playful spirit is infectious, and he has a knack for making everyone around him smile. While Walter may bark and flinch when first encountering new situations, with the right patience and guidance, he is learning to embrace new experiences bravely.
Walter is potty trained, but like any young dog, he gets easily distracted by his furry friends and might forget to take care of business, so regular outdoor breaks are essential. He’s fully crate trained and has mastered the “kennel up” command, finding comfort in his safe space.This sweet boy knows a few basic commands, including “sit,” “leave it,” and of course, his name, showing a willingness to learn. His high energy levels are perfect for an active family that can engage him in fun activities and help him feel secure.
Walter would thrive in a household with another playful dog or two, but it isn’t a requirement. A home without small a children is ideal, allowing him the time and space he needs to decompress and adjust to his new surroundings. He is a clumsy, lovable doofus who will keep you laughing and bring joy to your days.
Walter is currently healing from a small tear in his knee. We will be including magnawave sessions and chiropractor appointments with his adoption.
Once settled in, Walter reveals his affectionate, sweet nature, showering you with love and companionship. He’s worth every bit of extra time and patience you can give, as the bond you’ll form will be priceless. If you’re ready to open your heart and home to this funny, sweet boy, Walter is waiting for you! Together, you can embark on a journey filled with love, laughter, and plenty of playful adventures! 🥰





🐶 Meet Tony – The Zoomie King With a Heart of Gold 💙
Looking for a dog that keeps you laughing and keeps you on your toes? Meet Tony — a 6-month-old, 22-pound cattle dog mix with a big personality, a bigger brain, and an even bigger heart.
Tony is a professional squeaky toy inspector, part-time cuddle enthusiast, and full-time zoomie machine. He’s mastered the art of crate naps, sleeps through the night like a champ, and greets every morning with enthusiasm (and probably a toy in his mouth).
This clever boy is food-motivated, super smart, and eager to please — the perfect combo for continued training. He’s already nailed crate and potty training, is doing well on leash, and is picking up house manners faster than you’d expect from a spunky puppy.
Tony’s been working hard (with the help of his awesome foster family) to channel his puppy energy into good choices — and it’s paying off! He’s learning how to chill out with a bone, relax on his “place,” and understand that sometimes, life isn’t a race. 🐾
Making Dog Friends Like a Pro 🐕
Since arriving from Texas, Tony has made huge strides with dog socialization! While he still prefers slower introductions and calm canine companions, his foster mom reports he’s come a long way. Chase and tug are his favorite games, and he’s learning that not every interaction needs to be a wrestling match. With the right doggie friends and guidance, he’s starting to enjoy playtime more and stress less.
Tony’s Ideal Home:
Tony is still figuring out this big, noisy world — and he’d love a calm, structured home to help him do that. Fast movements and loud noises (yes, even stomach growls!) can startle him, so he’d do best outside of the city or apartment life, with space to run and decompress.
He’s a sensitive guy with strong herding instincts, so no small kiddos for Tony — but he’s deeply affectionate with his people and loves to snuggle once he feels safe. He just needs someone who “gets” quirky, high-energy breeds and is ready to help him keep building confidence.
⸻
Tony’s Dream Person:
• Patient, consistent, and ready to keep up his training
• Has a yard (and maybe a chill dog buddy!)
• No small kids, please
• Loves smart, energetic dogs who just need a little extra guidance
Tony might not be the easiest pup on the block — but he’s bursting with potential and ready to bond hard with the right person. If you love a challenge, believe in underdogs, and are looking for a loyal adventure buddy, Tony might be your perfect match.
Could this smart, silly, sensitive boy be your next best friend? 🐾



Age: 2 years
Weight: 19 pounds
Hey there, humans! I’m Owen, your soon-to-be favorite four-legged companion! I’m the lovable, sweet, and curious type who’s here to fill your days with joy and plenty of tail wags. With me around, you can expect lots of laughs and a healthy dose of snuggles!
I’m a total social butterfly, but I won’t jump all over you-just enough to let you know I’m excited! Exploring new environments is my specialty, and I’m always ready for an adventure (or a leisurely sniffari).
My idea of a perfect day? A nice, slow stroll where I can take my time sniffing every interesting scent! I love poking around the yard, and while my foster siblings are still determining what fun play means (they’ll come around!), I’m always up for some cuddly moments on the couch or in your lap.
I don’t notify you by going to the door, but I well on a potty schedule. It will be important to keep this up in my forever home. And the crate?

My name, “sit,” and “come” are my go-to commands; we can totally work on more together if you’re up for it!

Meet Kimo – The Nervous Chihuahua with a Heart of Gold! 🐾
1-year-old | 10 lbs | Chihuahua Mix
If you’ve got a soft spot for underdogs and a patient heart, then Kimo might just be your perfect match.
Kimo is a one-year-old chihuahua mix who came all the way from Texas and is slowly learning how to “dog” in his Wisconsin foster home. He may only weigh 10 pounds, but this little guy carries a big bundle of nerves, and an even bigger heart.
Kimo is naturally timid and uncertain around new people and environments. Sudden noises, busy daytime sounds, and unfamiliar faces send him into hide-and-watch mode. He prefers the quiet of the evening and finds comfort in routine and predictability. But once he feels safe? The transformation is pure magic.
In the comfort of his foster home, Kimo is showing more and more of his playful, curious side. He loves to romp with the resident dogs, chase stuffies (and absolutely destroy them), shred some paper (typical puppy mischief!), and curl up for snuggly naps under a pile of blankets. He’s not clingy, just quietly loyal and happy to be near his dog and human buddies. He’s also house-trained, kennel-trained (though not exactly thrilled about going in), and knows a few commands like “stay” and “settle.”
Kimo truly looks to other dogs for confidence. A calm, friendly, and well-adjusted canine companion is an absolute must in his future home. He needs a buddy who can show him the ropes—not another nervous pup, as that can amplify his anxiety. He’s also great with cats and isn’t food or toy possessive. In fact, he’s a total gentleman when it comes to sharing.
He’s still unsure about leashes and walks, so a secure, fenced-in yard is essential as he builds confidence at his own pace. Car rides make him nervous, but he handles them well. And despite his “resting worried face” (those furrowed brows are permanent!), he has never shown aggression, he chooses flight over fight every time.
Kimo is truly a diamond in the rough. With a patient, loving family and a stable dog sibling to lead the way, he will continue to blossom. He may never be the life of the party, but he will be the most devoted snuggle buddy you could ever ask for.
If you’re ready to offer time, understanding, and a whole lot of love, Kimo is ready to give you his heart.







Age: 3 years
Weight: 16 pounds
Tasha’s journey has brought her back to us, and she’s ready to find her forever home! Originally adopted in 2023, she returned to our care due to her owner’s medical emergency. Now this lovable girl is looking for a new family to shower with affection and fun!
Tasha is a happy and playful pup who enjoys the simple things in life. While she loves to chill with her humans, she can be a bit stubborn at times—who isn’t?
Favorite Activities include:
– Outdoor Explorer: Tasha adores being outside, especially on walks.
– Nap Time: After a good romp, she’s all about catching some z’s.
– Snack Enthusiast: Treats are her weakness! She’ll happily join you for snack time, just don’t expect her on your lap—she prefers to sit beside you.
Tasha is great with new people and tends to get a little excited when meeting them—her tail has its own happy dance!
Training:
– House-Trained: Yep! Keep her on a schedule, and she’s all set.
– Crate-Trained: Tasha is quiet in her kennel, though she might need a little coaxing with a treat to hop inside.
-She knows “Sit,” “Come,” and “No.” The command “Wait” is more of a suggestion for Tasha when she’s extra excited!
Tasha plays well with other dogs, especially younger ones. The older dogs in the house sometimes need to set boundaries, and Tasha listens well. Her energy is medium—she loves to play but gets tired relatively quickly.
Tasha would thrive in just about any household. A home that’s somewhat active would make her very happy, especially if there’s a yard for her to explore.
Tasha easily overheats, so she enjoys staying cool, often lounging on the floor without a pillow—she’s not one for fancy beds!
She is highly food and treat-motivated but prefers enjoying her meals without other dogs nearby. Be prepared to brush her regularly, as her beautiful long hair tends to get matted. She will need routine grooming!
Tasha is currently a bit overweight but otherwise healthy and ready for a loving family!
If you’re looking for a bright spirit to brighten your days, Tasha might just be the perfect match! Adopt her and watch her fill your life with joy and companionship! 🥰
