Story
Ruby is a 60lb Aussie girl looking for a forever home. Ocean Blue eyes, soft long flowing hair, quiet, and a lover not a fighter. Ruby is the perfect bachelorette, her 9 years brings with her a sense of loyalty. Ruby is well over the juvenile scene and prefers long walks daily. She is not on twitter but she will follow you anywhere. She socializes with others of all breeds very well but is over the ""playing games in your face"" type relationship. If she was to share her home with another fur brother or sister she would prefer an older/chill type companion. She also loves a fence since she is free to explore and not be tied down. Ruby loves eggs on her morning food and prefers someone that can accommodate her tastes as she is a catch of a lady and deserves to be treated as such. She prefers soft pillows to sleep on and a lap to snuggle on since after all she thinks she is a lap dog. Her previous owner said she loves cats. If you are interested in making a match please fill out an application at www.foreverhomedogs.org since she is only taking appointments to meet her. Her adoption fee is $100.All adoptions are $200 per dog which include spay/neuter, micro-chipped and up-to-date on required shots. Senior dogs, at our discretion, are adopted out at $100 per dog because we know they will have less time with your family and may eventually have more needs as they get older. But we feel these dogs deserve to live out the rest of their lives as part of a loving family.

Story
Hi! My name is McPaul and I am a 4 year old Australian Shepherd mix. I was rescued along with many other dogs from a property during flooding this spring in western Iowa. I haven't learned how great people are yet and don't trust this thing they call a leash so I will require a physical fence. My new family will need to be patient with me as I gain their trust and learn how to be an inside dog. I would love a home with another dog to help me learn to be an inside dog also. If you are interested in meeting or adopting me, please apply at www.aheinz57.com/adopt.

Story
Hi! My name is Bellevue and I am a Husky mix. I was rescued along with many other dogs from a property during flooding this spring in western Iowa. I'm learning to trust my foster family, but still have a long way to go. I prefer the dark and tend to be more social early mornings or later at night. I do love the couch and sleeping in bed. I will require a physical fence as I'm unsure of many things and might run to get away. My new family will need to be patient with me as I gain their trust and learn how to be an inside dog. I would love a home with another dog to help me learn to be an inside dog also. I am working on being house trained, but sometimes my regular pacing makes it hard to determine what I need. If you are interested in meeting or adopting me, please apply at www.aheinz57.com/adopt.

Story
My name is Luna and I am a tricolor & black aust shepherd. I am a spayed female and I am 9 months old. I am here because I was given up by my owner on 11/25/2023 due to the fact the other pet in the home didn`t want me around. They were my family for 3 months. I am used to staying inside during the day and inside during the night. I am potty trained, but can have accidents if not kept on a schedule. I am a medium energy dog and I can live with an owner with no prior pet owning experience. I am great about walking nicely on a leash, although I will sometimes pull when excited. I would do well with simple obedience training to help us bond and for us to learn how to communicate with each other. I will dash out open doors/gates if given the opportunity, so my owner should be mindful of that until I`m better trained not to do that. I would like a standard height fence to help keep me inside the yard safely so I can run and play as much as I want. I can be good with men, women, and children. I can be good with cats and I can be good with other dogs. I am afraid of loud noises or unfamiliar object, and I run away when I see them. The shelter staff would be happy to talk with you about how to help me to manage my fears.My owner had this to say about me: Relaxed and chilled dog most of the time. She is also goofy and playful. She is super affectionate and loves hugs and belly rubs. Loves tug of war, being outside, and getting attention. Struggles with some seperation anxiety, will need appropriate crate training to help her manage this, as I haven`t had time to do this with her.All dogs are tested for heartworms and given flea preventatives. They are also tested for intestinal parasites and receive routine dewormings. Dogs are vaccinated against distemper, rabies, and bordetella, spayed/neutered before adoption, and have a microchip. Adoption fees include the initial automated registration of the microchip at the time of adoption.
