Story

Dog selective. Belle is in need of a new foster home as a member of the house has become very ill. Belle does not chew on shoes though she does like to carry them around when she gets excited. Belle was born in our care on April 1st 2017 to Momma Orla. She and her siblings were named after Beauty and the Beast characters. She and her "sister" didn't get along so the family felt she would be better with a new family. She did great with her two Chihuahua siblings, and may do well with a male dog. She loves to give kisses and plays hard on toys. One of her favorite past times is to bird watch. Cats and kids are unknown at this time. She is currently in boarding and we need her out!Thank you for your interest in adopting a pet from Guardians of the Green Mile Inc. We are a group of individuals that have come together to save the lives of animals that are in danger of being euthanized. We raise funds to fully vet the animals and to provide them with a stable home until they are adopted. All of the dogs in our Rescue are in Foster homes while they are looking for their forever family. The only time we put a dog in boarding is for a Foster to go on vacation if another Foster is not able to care for them. We appreciate your taking the time to fill out the application to adopt one of our Guardians of the Green Mile pets. The questions that we ask are to only find the right fit for all of our dogs and the families that will be adopting them.

Story

Hi, my name is Gigi! I’m an Akita mix about 3 years old. I’m a very sweet girl and love to run, play, and stretch out in the sun. I really enjoy exploring my world through all its fantastic smells. Chasing small animals is always fun, so a fenced-in yard is a must to make sure I don’t get carried away. Slow introductions are best for me, as I can be a little timid with strangers, but once I’ve warmed up to you, I can be your best pal, whether playing outside or hanging around on the couch. If you give me belly rubs, I’ll be your friend forever! My foster brother and I have a great time playing with each other, and I get along with other dogs once I get to know them. I’m looking for a loving, patient family that can help me grow and build my confidence by gently introducing me to new environments and experiences. Can you be my forever home? *** We have no idea why she’s been waiting so long. She is obviously gorgeous and sweet! She is a careful girl but loves her people fiercely! She is more nervous around new men, but warms up fine as she looooooves her foster dad so much. She is an active girl and loves to run and play with other dogs. In fact, she tends to do best with other dogs around because they help her feel more confident and secure. This pretty girl needs nothing but a little patience and love. If interested in meeting Gigi, fill out an application today! https://www.jotform.us/form/43196636952162Thank you for your interest in adopting a pet from Guardians of the Green Mile Inc.

Luna

Siberian Husky

Female

Portage, IN

Size

(when grown) -

Details

Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Husky experience & 6' fence required. No cats/small animals. Kids 12+. Luna is a 7yo husky. She came from IL where she kept escaping from an unsecured yard. She will test gates and fencing but does not go over. She does like making some independent landscaping decisions, but isn't very yard destructive and likely isn't going to quickly tunnel out as some huskies do. Luna does have epilepsy (a controllable disease that causes seizures) but doesn't have ANY seizures as long as she takes her pill twice a day. Her last refill at CVS cost $27 for a 2 month supply. Luna LOVES to run and play and regularly gets the husky zoomies. Her other most favorite thing in the world is being brushed. Luna is an absolute lover and loves getting loved on. Being brushed hits all of that for her. And is a major plus for you! Luna would do best with another chill male dog or on her own. She gets along great with her foster brother but has some resource guarding issues with her foster sister. As long as there aren't any toys down and her foster mom isn't sitting on the couch, Luna and her foster sister do OK together for a few hours at a time. Crate trained, knows basic commands, doing well on learning leash and car manners but it's a work in progress Luna is available through Guardians of the Green Mile (www.gotgm.org) of Portage, IN.

Story

Rocco is a very good dog that deserves a good home. He does have behavioral issues though. He’s very dog aggressive, and i wouldn’t trust him near smaller pets or children. If you have a single family home and are looking to rescue a good dog (with some issues), and think you can accommodate these needs, please reach out! I love this dog very much and wish I didn’t have to rehome him.
