London

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hey everyone, London here! I just turned One and I am full grown at 45lbs. They tell me I am a smart cookie because I have learned so much since I got here back in February (2o24). When I arrived, I didn’t know how to walk on a leash and I pottied in my room (which I guess is a big NO NO). Now I love going for walks in my harness and catching bugs and running through the tall grass. I only use the bathroom in my outside area or the yard and I can use the doggie door as well! I really like to play with toys and with humans, but other dogs make me nervous and I can’t stand cats! I am getting used to other dogs though and might have a roommate soon, but I hope I find a forever home before then cause I really like to be by myself (so I can get all of the attention when the humans come to hang out).

Anyway, I would be a loyal and fun companion, if you would give me the chance.
Please come by and say hi, maybe take me for a walk? I would LOVE that!

Luke

Paws in Prison

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Luke came to us with his sister, London.  They were surrendered because their owner had too many dogs.  He looks like a Black Mouth Cur/Shepherd Mix to us.  He is a very active and playful dog and needs a place to run and play with people who will give him lots of attention.  He is very affectionate and loves human interaction. He does not like cats but is good with other dogs and kids.  Luke is eager to please and just wants a person to love on him and be with him all the time.  He will make a great companion dog for someone or a family.  He is just now a year old and weighs 45lbs.

**Luke was enrolled in the Paws in Prison Program for 8 weeks of obedience training. He will be at the North Central Unit in Calico Rock. He is now crate trained, has manners, and knows  a lot tricks as well!

**Update from the PIP trainer: Luke has demonstrated basics and more advanced training besides 20+ tricks. His handlers say that he is “well mannered, a love bug, and a dog that loves attention.”

Luke graduated the program on Sept 17th, but has not been claimed yet! If you are interested in meeting him, please contact us!

Dewey

Dewey, Upon Arrival at SCHS

 

Paws in Prison**Dewey was enrolled in the Paws in Prison Program for 8 weeks of obedience training. He will be at the North Central Unit in Calico Rock. He will be crate trained, learn manners, and he will learn lots of tricks as well! Dewey will be looking for a forever home before he graduates in early December, so if you are interested in meeting him, please contact us!

Despite his struggles upon arrival (see below), Dewey is the BIGGEST SWEETHEART. He loves affection and just wants to be held and cuddled. He gives us hugs and lays in our laps, even though he is a large dog.  Dewey also enjoys playing with other dogs and going for walks. He is house trained, neutered, up to date on shots and ready to find his new family!

Dewey was found starving and rummaging through trash at a campground in the National Forest. He only weighed 32 pounds and had a severe infection that we treated with antibiotics. He was also heart worm positive and completed his treatment for that once he was at a healthy weight.  Dewey is now a healthy 60 pounds and his blood work shows no signs of infection!

Kenna

Husky MixKenna is 2.5 years old and weighs 62lbs. She is very slender and sleek with a blue speckle in one of her eyes- just a beautiful dog! She was returned to us after 2 years in a home, adopted as a puppy.  The family just had a baby and Kenna became very protective of the baby and would fight with the other dog when it got too close.  They were heartbroken to bring her back because she is really a great dog – loves to cuddle and is pretty calm and gentle.  She is also housetrained and knows some simple commands. Kenna, for the most part, gets along with other dogs and loves kids.  She has not been around cats, but we can introduce her if needed.

Opie

Blue Eyed DogOpie came to us, with his brother Oden. Opie was blessed with the most beautiful blue eyes, but he has confidence issues – he is a little unsure of himself although he feels confident with another doggo around, so he will do best in a home with another k-9 companion. He loves other dogs and gets along with almost all of them. Opie is neutered, current on shots and is full grown at 35lbs.  His adoption fee has been waived for our Clear the Shelter Event, but your application must be approved.

Oden

Blue Eyed Kelpie

Oh, hi there. I’m Oden. I am supposed to tell you about myself, but I am a little nervous, so please forgive me. I am 2 1/2 years old and 35lbs. Do you have a dog with you? I am more comfortable when there is another dog around.  I LOVE other dogs, and kids are ok too, I just don’t like cats and I REALLY don’t like chickens. That is why I am here at the shelter, stupid chickens!

Anyway, I only potty inside occasionally; I guess they call it “partially house-trained” and I am leash trained and use the doggie door. I really enjoy going on walks and meeting new dogs. Dogs are just great aren’t they?! Did you notice my eyes? Everyone tells me I have beautiful blue eyes, but I am color blind so I just have to take their word for it.

I would really like to get out of the shelter and back into a home. I liked the stability and quiet. It gets pretty loud here with 25 other dogs playing and barking. I would love to lay on a comfy couch or dog bed again. Maybe you could come take me for a walk? But bring your dog, that would be better and more fun! Hope to see you soon!

Oden’s adoption fee has been waived for our Clear the Shelter Event, but your application must be approved.

Buck

Rott MixBuck has stolen all of our hearts. He always appears to be smiling and literally gives hugs. He is a 60 pound ball of joy! Buck just wants to be where the action is and loves people. He does well with most other dogs, but doesn’t like being in a confined space with them. Buck is house and leash trained and LOVES going for walks. He is also very good at entertaining himself with a good bone and he loves to lay on his bed with his blankets. We believe Buck will make a great dog for anyone who will smother him with the love and attention he so desperately desires.

Mikey

Mikey came to us with his brother, Monroe.  They are an owner surrender and we were told the parents were Mountain Dog and Heeler.  Mikey has been outside in a pen all of his life and not given much attention, so he is a little shy. He doesn’t potty in his pen, so would be easy to housetrain. Mikey loves to go for walks and chew on bones. He is a pretty neat guy once you get to know him.

Ada

Heeler Mix

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ada is a very down to earth dog and is always smiling. She enjoys going for walks and to get belly rubs, as well as booty scratches.  She LOVES to play with other dogs and toys. She can be very shy at first with people, but warms up quickly. She will most likely do best in a home with other dogs, but we are not sure.  I would consider her partially housetrained because if she has an outside area to potty in, she does not go in her room, but she does potty in that designated area overnight. Ada is 2 years old now and weighs about 45lbs. She has a black patch over one eye and beautiful touches of brown throughout her coat. She really is a beautiful gal!
