Story

Lula loves her people and loves to play fetch. We got her as a pup from a local Breeder. She is house trained and is good in the house. Lula does not get along with our other dogs or cat, and has been aggressive towards other dogs, especially smaller females. She would be happiest as the only dog in the family. Lula is very gentle with people and older children. Lula has been raised in the country and loves walking on our trails and in the woods. We are looking for a good owner or family with older children to give her lots of love and attention.

Fitzcarraldo

German Shepherd Dog

Male, Young

Bloomington, IN

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Fitzcarraldo is an incredibly warm, affectionate goofball who LOVES fetch, learns quickly (though I'm not really training him bc I'm too busy), and would be very grateful to have someone who can give him companionship. He's a little much for my other dogs and can get jealous/predatory, so I don't know that I'd recommend him in a multidog household. He goes to the bathroom quickly when taken out and does not go in the house. I love him and wish I could keep him myself, but I already have four dogs. I offered to foster him for a woman who was under threat of being evicted. He has always lived in apartments but loves going out on Sniffspot adventures for long games of fetch, for which he seems to have infinite energy. He will pester you for attention if he's not getting enough, but with a regular routine and really not that much attention he relaxes well and is a chill companion. Loves hugs and cuddles and pets. I don't think he's been around kids so I would recommend teens or older.

Sticks

Jack Russell Terrier

Female, Young

Bloomington, IN

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Sticks is a sweet 2-year-old Jack Russell who came from the same litter as her sister, Twigs. She’s an incredibly loyal dog who loves nothing more than being close to her humans — snuggling is absolutely her love language. She’s well-mannered in the house and only chews on her toys. Sticks does have one quirk: she isn’t a big fan of other dogs. While she can tolerate them at times, she can also become territorial, and her tension with her sister has been growing. Because of this, we believe Sticks will be happiest in a calm home where she can be the only dog and receive the solo attention she truly deserves. What she does love is adventure. Sticks is an energetic, outdoorsy girl who’s always up for a hike, walk, or run — you name it. She regularly ranks as one of the top Jack Russells on the Fi leaderboards for daily steps in the whole state, and she would thrive with an active person or family who enjoys getting outside.

Selah

Jack Russell Terrier Poodle (Miniature)

Female, Puppy

Bloomington, IN

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Posted 11/30/25. Selah came to the Nest a little over two months ago together with her 5 siblings from a local animal shelter. At the time the puppies were just born. Selah is now almost 10 weeks old. Being the smallest of the litter she is the little runt. The mother is a miniature poodle/bichon mix (our best guess) and she was found as a pregnant stray. We don't know what the puppies are a mix of but definitely terriers like Jack Russel, Schnauzer, and such. Selah is super sweet, very smart and like all puppies very playful. She loves to play and wrestle with her siblings and she likes toys. She is very inquisitive and loves to explore and run around in the yard. She currently weighs almost about 5.5 lbs. We think she could weigh up to 15 lbs. when fully grown. Selah will need proper basic training preferably with a professional dog trainer to learn boundaries and to become a happy pup that stays out of trouble. She is already picking up the potty outside routine but will need to be fully house and crate trained. For Selah we are looking for a home where she can get all the attention, exercise and play time she needs to develop into happy and well behaved dog. Katy will be vaccinated, dewormed, spayed and micro chipped. She is also current on parasite prevention. Her adoption fee is $300. If you are interested in Katy please fill out an adoption application on our web site. If you don't hear from us within 48 hrs. please send us an email at inthenest@gmail.com
