You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Please contact Heidi Schlotzhauer for more information about this pet.Fostered in NebraskaMyk loves his people which include small children. He loves to play on the rough side with the resident dog which includes some play biting on legs so he would do best with another dog that can handle the play. He would also do great as a solo dog. Myk sits nicely and is very food motivated to learn new things. He is house broken and loves his kennel. Myk does like hearing himself talk so if he outside alone he does bark. Myk is also protective of his home. Any new visitor need a slow intro but he warms up quickly. Myk loves walks and is an active dog for his age. Zoomies are a regular part of his day. Myk also loves a good pile of clean laundry, he needs to make it smell like him again.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.January 5, 2025, 8:47 am

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Please contact Marge Noll for more information about this pet.Boris joined us from Missouri on March 18th along with his buddy Kane. They have lived together their entire lives. Boris is the elder, at 8 years old.  We were told they both spent too much time in a kennel but did have some sort of backyard. We worried that they would not have good leash skills, but surprisingly Boris does well and has a brisk pace he likes to keep, unless he catches the scent of something too good to pass up and stops for a good sniff of whatever caught his attention. What is currently slowing him down is a bit of a drag/knuckling with his back left paw. It was noticed as soon as he arrived as his nails were bleeding from scraping the concrete. Once we got that under control and found a boot that will stay on him, he really enjoys walks and would go farther if his leg didn't get so tired. So, we have dialed it back a little, going shorter distances and we also are working on getting some weight off him and doing some red/cold laser treatments at home to see if this all helps him a bit. He does stairs well, but I would use caution later in the day if he has been active as his leg may get tired.  Boris is incredibly agile for his size. He gets on and off the couch, chair, ottoman, or your lap. He truly believes if he fits, he sits!  Boris likes toys. He has been caught rummaging his snoot through the dog toy box searching for what he wants to entertain himself with. He enjoys tennis balls also and will bound across carpeted areas to get to one if you play with him. He doesn't exactly bring it back to you but does seem to enjoy playing “keep away” once he has it in his mouth. We are not sure how he would be with other dogs up close. He tolerates his buddy, Kane, very well. At times when walking him he may bark at another dog or completely ignore them. We will need to explore this more with him.  He has greeted people/strangers without any hesitation. He will go up and lick you and expect pets and butt scritches. He craves attention and contact from people. I think he would be fine with children, but because of his size, and he is a little clumsy, he may accidentally step on them, not meaning to cause harm at all. He is a very loving boy.  Boris knows his name, can sit when told and knows how to shake. He is a food hound! He is convinced he is being starved to death, so additional training would be easy since he is so food motivated. We are currently working on “out”, using it to keep him out of the kitchen when we are cooking because he is underfoot hoping something will fall.  Also, if you are eating in front of him, you will see the droplets begin to form at the corner of his mouth and his drool will drip every so often. Using “out” to have him go to the edge of the carpet and telling him to stay until we are done has been effective, he is learning, but he doesn’t give up easily.  He is good going into his kennel, that is when he gets an actual treat. He seems 100% house trained and has not tried to play with anything that isn’t a toy. He spent the night out of the kennel last night and I am pretty sure he was in the exact same position this morning. as when we went to bed.  He has shown zero signs of aggression with people or when being redirected from something he wants, even food. He will allow us to take his food dish away while he is eating.  We are determining if he is truly bonded to Kane or not. He seems to be fine when he is not around. We are experimenting on doing things separately with each of them, instead of everything together so we can figure out what is best for each of them.  He has been to the vet, he did well during his exam and bloodwork. He is heartworm negative! And his blood work looks good, besides dropping a few pounds and getting his teeth and gums taken care of, and figuring out how to help his foot, he is in good health. Boris would make a great companion for anyone. He is trained, chill and a whole lotta love in once big package!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.January 5, 2025, 8:47 am

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Please contact Marge Noll for more information about this pet.Kane joined us from Missouri on March 18th, along with his buddy Boris. They have lived together their entire lives. Kane is younger at 7 years old. We were told they both spent too much time in a kennel but did have some sort of backyard. We worried that they would not have good leash skills, but surprisingly Kane does well on a leash as he does not pull much but does crisscross from side to side in front of you. He will also stop to look for Boris, he seems to rely on him for cues often. Kane has a martingale collar, but on walks he uses a harness in case something startles Kane, and he reacts by barking and pulling. We are trying to determine exactly what is triggering Kane. Kane can pass by a dog in the neighborhood with an electric fence without giving him the slightest attention most of the time. Other times it seems if the dog barks, then that will get Kanes attention and he in turn will bark and pull. We will walk along on the sidewalk, a person will be walking their dog along the road and it’s only when he hears the collar jingle of the passing dog, it will draw his attention he will react by barking and pulling. If he is given notice that a s person is approaching from in front of him or if the person is pointed out and says his name and talks to him as approaching, he does better than being startled by an unknown movement coming towards him. From our observations we feel that Kanes eyesight is what is causing his heightened reaction. This is also true in the home when reaching over Kane he has turned and growled. He has gotten much better at this as we announce ourselves or talk to him, so he is aware of our position and presence. At times it seems having lights on and ball caps off in dimmer settings helps so he can see who is around. Kane has been to the vet, he did well during his exam and bloodwork. He is heartworm negative! Neuter and dental scheduled for later in May. Hoping that the vet can get a better look at his eyes when he is under anesthesia to rule out or confirm any issues with his eyes. Kane is super friendly with anyone coming into the home. He has no problem greeting people and wanting their attention and to give kisses. He can be quite exuberant and at these times he may jump up on people. He is learning manners and starting to catch on, but he gets so happy he can’t help himself. Kane seems to know his name, most of the time. As for commands, he sits when asked immediately at times and not at all at others. He is currently learning that the new living room furniture is no longer his to sit on as before. He is doing a great job catching on. Also working on the command; Out for when it comes to us cooking in the kitchen he is very much under foot. Kane has not shown any interest in toys. Nothing. He has watched Boris play but shows no interest currently. It may be due to his dental condition and maybe we can get him interested in soft toys once he has healed. We are not sure how Kane would be with other dogs. He gets along well with his buddy, Boris. They compete a little for attention and at times Kane will stand over Boris, seemingly being dominant, Boris could care less. They share water bowls and Kane will allow you to take his bowl away from him and he does not react to Boris making sure that his bowl is empty. Kane does seem to look to Boris to know how to act or react to something. He follows Bori’s cues or behavior in some situations. When we first started walking Kane farther than Boris, and Kane realized he was on his own he seemed to look around for Boris. Now he seems to enjoy his extended walks because he realizes he will see Boris again. He has greeted people/strangers without any hesitation when he has approached them. He has a hard time containing his licker. He does crave attention and contact from people. He will place his head on your lap or stand by you and lean into you. I think he would be fine with children who are a little older because he wants to be bossy. (this may change some after being neutered) and having some manners classes and an owner who can help him learn his place in the pack. If Kane senses you are getting ready to leave, he will go sit in his kennel and wait for a treat. If you wait outside for a few minutes, you may hear Kane bark, but one cue to stop or tell him No Kane, he will stop, and we have not heard another peep. Kane has had zero accidents in the home. If he appears restless, we take him out. He seems 100% house trained. Currently he spends the night out of the kennel on the family room couch, oversized chair, or ottoman. Most likely you will find him exactly where you left him when you went to bed. We are determining if he is truly bonded to Boris or not. We are experimenting on doing things separately with each of them, instead of everything together so we can figure out what is best for each of them. Kane will seek out Boris more than the reverse and will often choose to go and lay by or next to him. They can be caught snuggling at times.  Kane is a nice loving dog at his core. He just seems like he has not had much of chance to have a relaxed life where he doesn’t need to be on guard all the time. He is learning quickly that he can relax on the deck in the back yard in a puddle of sunshine and not worry about what is happening on the other side of the fence. He is safe with good people, and we will protect him.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.January 5, 2025, 8:47 am

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Please contact Connie Wetter for more information about this pet.Gus is a sad 65 lbs dog from Kentucky. He is a rear end tripod. He does okay getting around but is not a walker. He is about 4-6 yrs old. He has had a dental and he had some teeth removed. Other than that he seems to be really healthy. He would be best in a home with no small children, unless they were very respectful and did not climb around on him. He stands about 24 inches at the shoulder. He has a nice personality and isn’t too demanding. An older couple or single older adult would be an ideal home for him. He does well with a chain link fence so he can run as he pleases. He is crate and house trained. He has a dog bed but likes to sleep wherever he decides to rest his head. The only thing bad about him is he is not cat friendly at all. Some big dogs also will create a problem for him but not always. He makes a good faithful companion to anyone who stay home a lot, or he loves to go for car rides. He is really a good pal riding shot gun. His brindle coat is hard to beat. He is a dark brown and very handsome. Just ask him he will tell you.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.January 5, 2025, 8:47 am

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Please contact Sue McMurry for more information about this pet.What a character - full of energy and love with a tail that pretty much wags all the time! Zeus is a boxer/mastiff mix from Kentucky and was found wandering the streets. He contracted mange, which is highly contagious and had to stay down at the shelter until he got a clean skin scrape. So that took about 2 weeks. He started his long journey to his foster home in Minnesota on an early Saturday morning, where a lot of wonderful people helped transport him from Kentucky to Minnesota, each group driving an hour or 2 to meet up with the next person. His foster dad took the final leg to bring him home. Zeus has separation anxiety but is doing better. If you leave him at home, he sometimes gets really mad for leaving him and he will have an accident in the house to show you he wasn't happy to be left. He has not been crated when we are gone – work/school or running errands. He loves to go on car rides and has to stick his head out the window with his jowls flapping in the wind. He is about 5-6 years old and a big boy at 102 plus pounds. He has a big head and uses that to push himself into every ones' business. He feels he needs to be the center of attention and will push to get there. He is learning manners, some faster than others. He is doing well with sitting and waiting for his food to get ready, then rushes over to his raised food stand and sits, waiting for it to be put down and told “OK” to release him from his sit/wait. Sometimes, the wait isn't until given the command, but he does wait for it to be set down. I also have not seen food aggression with waiting, touching, or even taking his bowl from him... he will use his big head to try and keep the bowl, but does let it go. Zeus is also learning to sit (sitting still is sometimes an issue) to get the leash put on so he can go outside. We do not have a fenced yard, so a leash is always on while outside. He is also learning to wait, just outside the door (we have 3 steps to go down) at the top landing, then told to go down the steps and wait there until we get down the steps and release him from his wait. He does pull on the leash quite a bit at times – especially if he thinks he sees a bunny in the yard... those are fair game that he feels he needs to chase. Walking on a leash is getting a little better, but he does pull us around. We try to stop and make him relax the leash, but if he has to go potty – it is right to the bush to pee if he knows he is going for a car ride, you are pulled to the back door of the vehicle where he then waits for you to open the door for him to jump in. ( Did I mention, he loves car rides). I do feel he would be better in a home with older children or no children, as he forgets his size and will knock into them. He loves sleeping on the bed at night and will take up most of the bed. He does also likes touching you at night. Loves to lay on the couch with you also.Click here to watch a video of Zeus.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.January 5, 2025, 7:56 pm
