Story
Meet Stella A 6-year-old beaut who’s been patiently waiting for over a year and a half to fin her forever home. This sweet girl may be a little shy at first, but once she warms up, her loving and loyal nature shines through. Stella takes a bit of time to trust new people, especially men, but with patience and understanding, she’ll quickly become your best friend. She just needs a little time to feel safe and secure, and once she does, she’ll shower you with affection. Stella is guessed to be a mix of Retriever, Terrier, and Mastiff, making her a unique and beautiful blend of breeds. She’s a great dog—calm, loving, and gentle—and would thrive in a home where she can feel comfortable and loved. Her perfect family would be one that’s patient, understanding, and willing to give her the time she needs to fully blossom. Potty trained, kennel trained, great with other dogs & kids, she’s a great fit for a family household. This sweet girl deserves a second chance at the love and stability she’s been waiting for. Stella has so much love to give, and with the right family, she’ll quickly become a cherished companion. Could you be the one to offer her the forever home she’s been dreaming of? 📍Being fostered in Appleton, WI ⏳Waiting for 1.5 years for an application 😢 🏁My adoption fee is $200 and you can see more about me & the rescue at https://lastpawrescue.org.

Story
Name: Kyra Age: 1 year old Breed: Large mixed Gender: Female Weight: ~40 pounds Altered: Yes Crate Trained: Yes Housebroke: Yes Good with kids: We don’t have children but due to her timid nature, younger kids will most likely be scary for her at first so older kids may be best. But I believe she would adjust to younger kids if given the time & patience. Good with dogs: Yes, she gets along great with our dogs & loves to play! They help make her more comfortable & confident! Good with cats: Yes. Foster location: Freeport, IL Fee: $150 that includes spay/neuter, monthly preventatives, deworming, age appropriate heartworm testing (or treatment) age appropriate vaccinations at the time of adoption, microchip and health certificate. Please apply for me at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/HFAH/Dog (403644-DS) Due to the amount of no shows we are now requiring a $50 deposit. If you adopt this will come off your adoption fee. If you meet and it’s not a good fit you will be refunded. If you cancel or no show it’s non refundable. **Meet and greets for approved applicants must happen within 3 days or the closest weekend (for long travelers). It’s in the dogs/puppies best interest to be placed into their furever homes in a timely fashion. All household members must attend the meet and greet. Bio: Kyra is such a sweet & playful girl. When she first came to us she was so shy but she has since blossomed. She is still unsure of new things but she has gained so much confidence while with us. She would love a dog friend as she loves to play & they help her feel more comfortable. When she sees us playing with our dogs or giving them attention, she’s right there to join in! Once she feels comfortable, she loves to cuddle up next to you & give kisses. Even though people initially make her nervous, she is curious & doesn’t mind meeting new people who visit our home. She loves spending time with us & cuddling up next to us on the couch. She is a very sweet girl looking for someone with patience who is willing to give her the time she needs to continue to be her newly confident self!

Story
Name: Tchoup Age: 1.5yrs Breed: Lab Mix Gender: Male Weight: 48lbs Altered: Yes Crate trained: Yes Housebroke: Yes Good with kids: Yes Good with dogs: Yes, but needs a slow intro. Does better with female dogs. Good with cats: Unknown Foster location: Middleton, WI Fee: Sponsored! And includes spay/neuter, age appropriate vaccinations at the time of adoption, microchip and health certificate. Please apply for me at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/HFAH/Dog (403644-DS) Due to the amount of no shows we are now requiring a $50 deposit. If you adopt this will come off your adoption fee. If you meet and it’s not a good fit you will be refunded.

It’s in the dogs/puppies best interest to be placed into their furever homes in a timely fashion. All household members must attend the meet and greet. Tchoup, is a big old goofy pup. He absolutely adores toys, the more the better. Fluffy toys, balls, chewy bones, they are all magical to him. He calls all dogs friends and would love to have a sibling to run around with in his new home. He’s learning the ropes of living in a home, but he is settling in fast and enjoying his never-ending toy box. This kid would fit in with almost any type of family! Oh Tchoup, you big goofy hunk of love. You’ve been looking for your forever family for a long time and your foster Mom doesn’t understand why being that you are SO handsome? You have some quirks, but don’t we all? You need to get to know new doggy friends before you accept them into the folds of your family, but once in, you are fast friends and love to play. Dominate males maybe not so much, but in your current home you have both big & little male & female dog friends. You absolutely love your human people and are always close by wanting pets and cuddles. Are you a runner or avid hiker, this is your boy!! He loves being outside and would be a great partner. Tchoup absolutely loves his crate and willingly goes in and spends time there. There are instances where this overgrown goof ball like to “hog” all the toys and claim them all as his own (don’t we all). He is kindly reminded to share, and bones and toys removed. This kid is so smart and motivated to learn and would thrive in an obedience class. With his perfect Holstein colors, he looks like a mini cow and who doesn’t love a mini cow/dog?

It’s in the dogs/puppies best interest to be placed into their furever homes in a timely fashion. All household members must attend the meet and greet. Meet Chewy! Due to overcrowding at its finest Chewy was on the euthanasia list and we were able to get him off just in time. Since he arrived he’s been enjoying his time at his foster home with the kids the cats and the other dogs. He is a young boy that likes to play so if he goes to a home with other dogs, they have to be dogs that are able to tolerate his type of play. It seems like he’s still trying to figure that out and it’s quite comical. The dogs don’t enjoy his style of play give him a correction and he moves on. He’s very respectful on the leash and loves walks. He can also sit and shake! Chewy does share a home with other dogs, but he is particular about the dogs in his home so he would need to be either an only dog in his home or a dog that matches his energy, preferably a female.

Bio: If you are looking for a low energy, laid back dog, Niall is your guy. He walks well on a leash and gets along well with other dogs and kids of all ages. He is a little skittish of new people at first but if you give him a few good scratches you will be his best friend. He isnt big on kisses but he will always be by your side. He loves taking naps in bed and chewing on dog bones. He would love to find his furever home soon.
