Story
Mya is a 50#, 6 y/o rescue dog we've had for about 5 years and was my wife's dog. My wife recently passed away and Mya is lost without her companion and unfortunately has to spend wayyyy to much time in her crate while I'm away from home. She spent many hours each day lying alongside, or on my wife's lap. She is great with our grandkids, but doesn't know her own size around them (six that are ages 2 - 9). She has not been broken of jumping up on visitors and thinks she's a lap dog. She was never socialized around dogs/cats and thus the "no" response above. She is super excited to see other animals and she rushes to them causing them to react in fight or flight and then she responds in self-defense. On two occasions when a dog, and a cat, didn't react in self-defense they were able to play together well. She is crate trained. I will provide a crate, harness, leashes, bowls, etc., n/c. Fenced in yard needed - she is fast! I just want her to have the attention and love she deserves.

Story
Ziggy is a 63lb terrier that is estimated to be around 6 years old. He is a very loveable guy and can be the best boy. He is one of our happiest pups despite his current situation. He would greet everyone that comes to the shelter if given the chance! He is not a good fit for cats and can be a bit dog selective so he will need a meet and greet for families that have pets already.If you are interested in adopting this pet please visit www.blackfordcountyanimalshelter.com to complete our online adoption application.

Story
This gorgeous Rottweiler/Mastiff mix is Sharon. This girl showed up at the shelter with a broken leg and pregnant. She is healed and all her pups are adopted out to loving homes. It is finally her turn to shine and be adopted. She is 1.5 years old and very sweet. Sharon has a very strong prey drive so she is not a good fit with cats. She also shows aggression towards other dogs so this pup will be better in a home with no other pets. She would need to be on a leash outside or have a fenced in yard as she is curious and will run off. She is fantastic with humans and has been in a foster home. She has had house training and is doing great. Her adoption fee is $150.If you are interested in adopting this pet please visit www.blackfordcountyanimalshelter.com to complete our online adoption application.

Story
My name is Izzy and I am one gorgeous pup. I have a lot of energy and would love to have a fenced in yard to exercise in. I can jump a short fence so a 6 foot fence would be ideal. Long walks on a leash is also a great way for me to exercise if a fence is not an option. I am good with kids and all people but I can be a bit aggressive towards other pets so I would do best in a home with no other animals. I would not be a good fit for someone who wants a social pet with other dogs. I am crate trained and house trained and I do pretty well on a leash with a halter. I am active and goofy girl and deep down I just want to have fun. I am around 1.5 years old and 41 lbs.If you are interested in adopting this pet please visit www.blackfordcountyanimalshelter.com to complete our online adoption application.

Story
My name is Makoto and I am a good boy. I enjoy a good squeaker toy and treats could be a great pass time as well. I am 66 lbs and I am believed to be an Akita mix. I tested good with respectful dogs and I do not seem to mind having a cat around. I might chase them but with training I can do anything. I do not enjoy vet visits but what pet really does? I am a pretty calm dog, I do not tend to jump on people and I do pretty well on a leash. I have done well with people and would be a good fit with respectful kids. Am I the right dog for you? You will never know unless you fill out an application and come meet me!If you are interested in adopting this pet please visit www.blackfordcountyanimalshelter.com to complete our online adoption application.

Story
Meet Sky! Sky is a Shar Pei mix and is a perfect size. He is 34lbs and one of our senior dogs. We are estimating him to be around 9 years old but his is still a playful guy. He likes to run and chase balls and feel alive! He would do well with other dogs but a meet and greet would be recommended as sometimes he is a bit of a grump when meeting some dogs.If you are interested in adopting this pet please visit www.blackfordcountyanimalshelter.com to complete our online adoption application.
