This cutie patootie is approximately 10 weeks old and is looking to be your new best friend!! He has received vaccinations, has been dewormed and just got neutered. He was found as a stray and was surrendered to our rescue. He is being fostered with other dogs and cats and is doing well with both. He would do best in an active household. Mikey is being fostered in Mississippi but included in your adoption fee is transport to a location near you by Rescue Riders Pet Transport, the most animal friendly transport on the road! If you are interested in adopting this guy, please reach out to us and we will send you an adoption application. We look forward to hearing from you.

Story
Dolly was adopted in May 2025 from South Suburban Humane Society. Her birthday is Groundhog Day. She is very healthy, energetic, adventurous, playful, joyfully open to meeting new people, and excellent with young children and other animals. She would be happy with a family on lots of land or time for plenty of exercise. Her shepherd and hunting DNA is strong. Her puppy manners trainer called her “a thinking dog”. She trains very quickly, but needs more consistency from owners than we are able to offer.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Capitan is the sweetest little boy.  Well not super little, he is probably around 25-30 pounds now and will most likely get a little bigger.  We are unsure of his breed, he looks like he has border collie in him but probably also some terrier, maybe lab, his coloring suggests dalmatian.  He is amazing with other dogs and kids, loves to snuggle.  We are not sure how he would be with cats in his home but at our events he doesn't even seem to notice them so he probably won't care.  He is working on potty training but is crate trained and does pretty well on a leash.  He loves the water and mud so heads up.  One thing you need to know...he is deaf, and mostly blind, he lost one eye (congenital issue and it was removed), the other eye is not great either.  We think he can see shadows because he navigates his surroundings just fine, even when he is in a new place.  He would benefit from someone who has experience with a deaf and blind dog as training is difficult since he can't hear.  But he is so easy going he would be fine as long as his people do their research and learn with him.  Otherwise he is healthy, he is fixed, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped. His adoption fee is $400 To adopt Capitan, fill out an application at www.kakf.org/formsVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 7, 2026, 10:58 am

🐾 Oreo – Strong, Sweet, and Ready for His Fresh Start! Meet Oreo, a resilient and affectionate 1-year-old Australian Shepherd mix with the heart of a survivor. This sweet boy has been through so much — he was found after being hit by a car and brought to a vet by animal control.

He’s bursting with energy and enthusiasm for life, making him best suited for a family with older children or adults who can match his upbeat pace.

Meet Indie, a 4-year-old aussie mix with the cutest ears and smile. Indie enjoys playing with toys and getting yummy treats. She also loves fetch! Indie loves to go on walks with the volunteers and enjoys running in the yard, as well. When we sit down with she just wants to climb into our lap and give kisses while she gets pets!In September of 2023, Indie had surgery to correct an issue with a luxating patella and is fully healed and doing great! She's back to running around and playing like before. Indie is a herding breed, so as always, we strongly encourage anyone interested in her to research these types of dogs. Indie hasn't shown herself to be a big fan of other dogs during her time with us, so she will need to be an only pet! She promises to provide lots of love and laughter to her forever family!Indie's adoption fee has been fully sponsored by a generous donor!
