Story
Meet Monteen (aka Monty), a spayed 1 yr old 30lb mixed breed looking for her forever home. Monty is best matched with an adult home but older kids will be considered. She is a quirky loveable homebody and her hobbies include collecting toys, playing with dogs, snacking and bonding with her favorite people. She is timid with strangers, but she is very relaxed around her family and will show off her happy personality as she zooms around the house each morning. Monty has spent the last few months in a Wisconsin foster home living with cats, dogs and kids. She is doing great with house training and she sleeps in her crate.

Story
Libby is a dachshund mix and is estimated to be just over 2 years old. She is a super sweet, loyal and initially shy girl who loves her humans and would be a great companion for somebody who likes to snuggle during naps as much as she does. Once she warms up to other dogs, she is a fan of hanging out and playing with them, but cats are unknown. She is house trained on a schedule but not a fan of being left alone. When she is left alone she likes to sing a song of great sadness which is not suitable for apartment living. She did not make the cut for American Idol this fall which lucky for you means she is available for adoption to be your lap dog. Libby also isn't a fan of children under the age of 5 with their quick movements, so a home with older or no children is recommended.

Story
Hi! I'm Maya and am guessed to be a very cute 2-yr old chihuahua mix. I am a very happy go-lucky girl that loves fetch, soft squeaky toys, food and naps near your lap. I'm house and crate trained and haven't barked much while in my foster home. I am very shy when you first meet me, but within a day or two you won't be able to get me to leave your side. Once I'm comfortable with you I am a social butterfly, however I am not very fond of public places and events where it is loud or busy since I startle easily and would try to run away! I haven't met a cat yet but absolutely would love another dog in the home that also likes to play as much as I do! My foster mom says I'm annoyingly happy and I always put a smile on her face. If you give me a day or two to get to know you, I will give you a lifetime of love. Rey of Hope Rescue is a locally based dog & cat rescue in Milwaukee serving all of SE Wisconsin.

Story
Coey is a 2 year old mixed breed, who weighs 50 pounds of pure athleticism. Whether you're into trail runs, hiking, or scenic car rides, Coey is eager to join. This golden boy loves nothing more than exploring the great outdoors, and he's happiest when he's doing it alongside his favorite people. Although Coey is built for adventure, he remains calm and well-mannered in public, making him a fantastic companion on outings. He's crate trained, great with kids, and has a friendly streak that makes him eager to meet new people along the way. Like us all, Coey has his quirks. He's a picky eater, with a complex palate that seems to change often. You can't blame him for wanting a little variety! Adjusting to a new home means learning new potty routines. He is fully housebroken in his foster home, but an adoptive home should expect a few accidents while he gets used to his new environment. While he loves to make dog friends, he prefers them to be on the calm and submissive side-no dominant males, please! Coey's also a bit of a Houdini, so he'll need a secure 6-foot privacy fence or someone willing to keep him leashed and supervised when outside. If you're ready for an intelligent and loyal companion to hit the trails with, Coey is your guy. He's waiting for the perfect home that can match his curious spirit and give him the love he deserves.

Story
Meet Waylon! This gentle boy is a 70-pound mixed breed, possibly with some Anatolian or Dutch Shepherd in him. He's an "old soul-calm, composed, and a joy on the leash. Waylon is patient and gentle when taking treats, and he's excellent with kids. He sounds incredible, right? There's more! He enjoys playing with other dogs and ignores cats, making him the perfect match for a multi-pet household. Waylon is still working on potty training, so accidents will happen as he settles in. He's prefers his crate placed where he can see his people and feel included, but has proven to be trusted to free roam as well. Though he gets a bit nervous in the car and may experience motion sickness, he enjoys going places and being part of family activities. Sorry, Waylon will not be a fit for apartment life. If you're seeking a gentle and affectionate companion who is just as happy snuggled up at home as he is on adventures, Waylon could be the perfect addition to your family.

Story
Meet Ella! This 1 year-old, 55-pound bundle of joy is a true testament to the power of second chances. Just days before she was set to be euthanized in a high-kill shelter due to overcrowding, we couldn't stand by and let that happen. We saw the videos and pictures of Ella-full of life, energy, and happiness-and knew we had to give her a shot. Fast forward to today, and Ella is living her best life in her foster home, where she has flourished into the playful, goofy girl we knew she would be. Ella is fostered with multiple dogs and cats, and she's the life of the party! She's obsessed with playing with her doggy friends-whether it's a game of chase, or just bouncing around with a toy, she's always up for fun. She's crate trained, food motivated, and friendly with everyone she meets, both human and canine. Ella is also working on her potty training, and with a little more practice, she'll be the perfect house guest. Her bubbly, boisterous personality is contagious, but it can be a bit much for some dogs who aren't as interested in playtime. She's still learning to read social cues and would do best in a home with another dog who enjoys her high-energy, playful nature. Homes with young kids will be considered on a case by case basis, as Ella's still working on not jumping when she gets excited. While Ella has yet to interact with cats, we don't anticipate any issues-she's just a big, goofy lovebug with no mean bone in her body. Ella's zest for life makes her the perfect companion for an active family or anyone ready to keep up with her playful spirit. If you're looking for a dog who is all heart, all play, and all love, Ella is the girl for you! Rey of Hope Rescue is a locally based dog & cat rescue in Milwaukee serving all of SE Wisconsin.
