Story

Shilo was a little stinker out of his liter when grandma took him home at 8 weeks old. He has been the “older brother” to Storm since the day she came home. You can often find him cuddle her bed with if he isn’t on your heels. Shilo did some pad training as an older dog his outside potty duties come in fazes. He is quick to sass the cats but never nips or bites them. Walks well on a leash with or with out a harness and can be a big cry baby if he really wants something.

Details

Story

Kojak is a very smart, cuddly Red Heeler, Boxer mix. He was born on October 23, 2013 and is going to be 7. I received Kojak at 8 weeks old from his owners who lived across the street from me. His parents were always well behaved. He loves being active, especially playing with his frisbee, and he's a very good listener. He knows how to shake and roll over like a pro. Loves people and is amazing in public and around other animals at the vet or on the walking trail. He doesn't have accidents in the house ever and became house broken 2 weeks after I had gotten him. He is a quick learner and wants to please you and love you. I would like to find someone who can love Kojak just as whole heartedly as he will love you and doesn't have any other dogs or small pets at home. He would be perfect for someone who enjoys being active and takes him on daily walks. There are plenty of kisses to go around in Kojak's book!

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Hello! This is the lovely Odie, he is a 1 year and 2 months old. He was born on December 7, 2018. He is a sweetie pie and it breaks my heart to have to regime him but I’m hoping that he can find a loving family. In my family, I am really the only person who takes care of him because the rest have grown tired of him and it is very hard for me to take care of him because my schedule keeps getting busier and busier and I find it hard to be able to find the time to give him exceptional care, time, and training. Odie needs someone who is experienced, patient, and would be able to train him on his impatience and obeying. He will love you so much and will always want to be by your side.

Special Needs

Quinn

Australian Shepherd

Male, Senior

Lincoln, NE

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs special attention, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Choosing to place Quinn is one of the hardest things I've ever done. I had to move in with my sister. I had three dogs and she had three dogs. Unfortunately, the city says we can only keep three. Quinn is a retired obedience competition dog. He loves nothing more than joining you on the couch for a "Murder, She Wrote" marathon. He has a bit of a sensitive stomach so he eats salmon and sweet potato food. He'd enjoy going for a walk but it's not necessary. He loves to learn tricks and to train a little bit every day. He was born on July 3, 2006, so he's almost 14 years of age. His breeder gave him and his brother to a trucker who asked a friend of his to place them. One of the boys went to a friend and died about 4 years ago. Quinn has been with us ever since he was a pup. I think Quinn would do very well as a companion to an older adult or couple. He can be a barker when someone comes to the door but he's not at all aggressive. He's crate-trained, house-trained, and a happy boy.

Story

Storm had been with my grandmother since 6 months has some formal support training but due to my grandmothers health conditions she is not fully certified. At 7 she still has lots of spring in her step and kisses to share. Pretty calm manner and just wants to cuddle. Both dogs slept in bed or near grandma. Being far away from her owner for long makes storm sad. Her owner has past and she has already lost a lot I would hate to separate her from her pug friend.
