Story

Roog is a great dog, loves kids and people. He would be best in a home with another dog, I think he would really benefit from having a friend. But he also sometimes doesnt understand his size with small children , he doesnt watch when hes running. He doesnt mind cats, he either just watches or tries to play. He does need someone with more time to train. He is potty trained. He can sit, shake, lay down, take it nice and is okay on stay But he does need training on a leash, he was only on it for the vet or else he has free roam of house and big fenced in yard. He does get hyper as a 3 year old boy would. But he is also very chill and calm and just wants to lay by you and get all the loves. Life has unfortunately just been changing and I will no longer have the time for him anymore, I wont be home and he absolutely deserves to have someone and or a fur buddy. You;d be so lucky to be his new mama/daddy. He has been the best companion for me.

Meet Nala! 🐾 Nala is a 5-year-old Terrier Mix who’s looking for a forever home where she can share her joyful and playful spirit. Despite having some medical needs, this sweet girl is full of life and happiness 🙂 Nala came into rescue with diabetes and EPI, which is easily managed with two insulin shots and a special supplement with her meals twice a day, which helps keep her in great shape and ready for fun! Nala adores playing with kids, gets along wonderfully with other dogs, and is perfectly fine with cats. She’s a versatile companion who can fit into various households. She is searching for a loving home where she can continue to thrive. Ideally, her new home would not have farm animals, as they can lead her to eat things that upset her sensitive stomach during outdoor explorations. Ready to make Nala a part of your life? Fill out an adoption application at www.tailsofhopewi.org! We'd be happy to discuss her needs a bit more with you!

Story

Meet Mehlani: The Sweet Norwegian Elkhound Mix! Mehlani is a beautiful 10-month-old Norwegian Elkhound and Shepherd mix, radiating sweetness and joy. While she may initially come off as a bit timid, this gentle girl quickly warms up to new people and situations, revealing her loving nature. With patience and kindness, you’ll discover just how amazing Mehlani truly is. This lovely pup has shown herself to be exceptionally gentle with the children she’s met, making her a great companion for families. As long as kids are willing to give her the time she needs to feel comfortable, she will thrive in a loving home. Mehlani is an active girl who loves running and playing tag. A fenced-in yard where she can romp freely would be the perfect paradise for her! While she enjoys the company of other dogs, she does require proper introductions and tends to prefer playmates who aren’t overly hyperactive. With her instinct to chase, it’s best that she goes to a home without cats or rabbits, as she has a strong prey drive for small critters. In addition to her playful spirit, Mehlani is a fantastic travel companion. She loves car rides and is well-behaved during walks, showcasing her adventurous side. She’s both house trained and crate trained, though she prefers not to be in the crate for long periods. So far, she’s shown no signs of destructive behavior. Mehlani is a wonderful blend of playfulness and sweetness, and with a little time and understanding, she will make a loyal and loving addition to any family. If you’re looking for a sweet and spirited pup to join your home, Mehlani is ready to fill your life with happiness! Adopt Mehlani at: https://tailsofhopewi.org/adoptable-animals-2
