She's a bit of a busy body, likes to know what's going on in the world, but once she's satisfied, she's right back to the comfy, cuddly life. Alice is potty trained, spayed and up to date on vaccines. All she needs is a family to call her own! *Adopters must live in Central Indiana, no more than 45 min from downtown Indy *Please visit website for how to adopt: https://sketchymuttsandunderdogs.org/adopt *Please note that we do not operate on a first come first served basis

Story
Meet Ryder! This golden hair guy is truly as sweet as he looks. Ryder is a senior dachshund at 11 years old, but he has so much life left to live. He is a gentle, laid back guy who would love nothing more than to be with his person. He enjoys soft dog beds, snuggles, and soft snacks. Ryder came to us with dental disease and unfortunately did lose quite a few teeth, so he enjoys his food softened. He does well with other laid back dogs, and would enjoy another small companion in his new home. Ryder would love to live his golden years surrounded by love! Ryder is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed, heartworm negative, and current on flea/heartworm prevention. His adoption fee is $300 To adopt, apply today at farfetcheddogrescue.org!

Story
Meet Pretzel! ??This 32lb, 18-month-old Dachshund found herself at the shelter after being picked up by animal control while running loose. While the shelter can be a bit chaotic and noisy for her, she’s handling it like a champ—she may be a little timid at first, but she truly hasn’t met a stranger yet!Once she feels comfortable, her super friendly personality shines through. She loves everyone she meets and absolutely adores human affection. Playtime is one of her favorite things, especially when squeaky toys are involved, and she’s highly motivated by treats (which makes her extra fun to spoil!).Pretzel also walks great on a leash and enjoys getting out for some fresh air and exploration. With her sweet nature, playful energy, and loving heart, Pretzel is ready to find a forever home where she can feel safe, cherished, and loved.We do all adoptions with approved applicants by appointment only. If you are interested in adopting, please contact us via FB Messenger or email us at jcasreception@johnsoncounty.in.gov for an application. You can also find one on our website at http://johnsoncountyanimalshelter.com/adopt/. Once an application is submitted and approved, we can set an appointment to meet the pet!

Story
Meet Priya! This sweet 8-month-old little lady hasn’t had the easiest start in life, but she’s finally getting the chance to be a puppy — and she’s loving every second of it! Priya is making up for lost time: learning to play, discovering the joy of curling up on the couch, and realizing just how cozy a dog bed can be. Most importantly, she’s learning that people can be wonderful companions. Priya adores other dogs and gains so much confidence by following her furry friends’ lead. She loves to play and snuggle with her foster sister, and she’s wonderfully respectful of her cat foster brother — happy to coexist and mind her own business. She’s building her confidence on walks, working on her potty and crate training, and taking on new experiences with a brave little heart. Priya is a total cuddle bug — the perfect velcro pup who wants nothing more than to be near her people. If you’re looking for a loyal shadow and the best snuggler around, Priya might just be your girl! She weighs about 25 pounds, and while her breed mix is a bit of a mystery, we do know her dad was a Goldendoodle (surprising, we know!). With her adorable short legs, floppy ears, and one-of-a-kind look, Priya is proof that perfection doesn’t come from a breed — it comes from the heart. *Puppies must go to a home with another adult dog *Adopters must live in Central Indiana, no more than 45 min from downtown Indy *Please visit website for how to adopt: https://sketchymuttsandunderdogs.org/adopt *Please note that we do not operate on a first come first served basis

Story
Smokey is a very good and happy boy. His dad has become unable to care for himself and so this very good boy and his brother, Lucky, are needing a new forever home. Their dad is a kind man who let the boys have the run of the house and yard. The family members caring for them now report that the boys are progressing well with their house manners. Once boundaries are re-established, it seems both Smokey and Lucky are good in the house. They are affectionate pets and are fine with encouragement on the leash. These very worthy boys are waiting for the next chapter. We want this that to be with a person as loving as the first. Please consider Smokey and possibly Lucky too. They qualify for the Pets for Vets and Seniors for Seniors adoptions. Both boys are neutered, and just had dentals. They had vaccines updated and had negative heartworm tests. Lucky has no vision in his right eye due to a previous illness.

Story
Lupe is a Chihuahua-Dachshund mix with a big personality! He can be introverted and protective, preferring a quiet home where he can relax and enjoy his favorite snacks. Though he can seem to be a bit grumpy when he first meets new people, he's just scared. Once he knows he can trust you, he’s a loyal companion who likes to hang out right next to his human. He just needs some patience and love. Lupe is very reliably potty-trained and will go to the door when he wants to go out. He gets along with other small dogs when they are properly introduced. Lupe has a loud bark so would not be ideal for a shared-walls situation. He likes a fenced-in yard but would be happy with leash walks. He prefers female dogs to male ones, but with a strong human leader he will adapt to having a fur brother. Lupe is smart. He watched another foster who had to be crate-trained because of chewing issues, go into his crate after each trip outside and get a treat. So, Lupe decided us to show that he is crate-trained as well! He enjoys his treats! 11/21/24, 12/21/24 CG
