Story
Watson is an intelligent, driven dog who thrives on structure, consistency, and engagement. He does best with clear expectations and regular mental and physical stimulation. In situations where he feels unsure or under-stimulated, he may become overstimulated and attempt to control his environment by lunging. While this can look intense, Watson responds extremely well to direction and de-escalates quickly when asked to perform a command. Watson kennels very well and finds calm, gentle kennel time helpful for settling his energy. He sleeps in his kennel overnight and is crated when left alone, which he has done successfully for up to three hours. Watson loves other dogs and has consistently gotten along with every dog he has met, including a wide variety of breeds and sizes—from large mastiffs to a 5-pound chihuahua. All interactions so far have been with spayed/neutered dogs. He especially enjoys off-leash play and pack walks but also does well on leash. He is very people-friendly and typically appropriate with greetings and interactions, aside from the overstimulation moments described above. He is eager to please and enjoys working with his handler. Watson requires an above-average amount of mental stimulation and truly enjoys learning. His command set is solid, including: Sit, Down, Place, Look, Touch, Front, Finish, and Heel, and he requires minimal treat reinforcement. He also loves enrichment activities such as hide-and-seek games and treat-finding (snuffling). Impulse control remains an area for continued training, particularly around distractions. While his lunging behavior can appear aggressive, it is rooted in overstimulation rather than intent, and he is able to calm himself with guidance, commands, and treats. Continued training and gradual exposure to outside distractions will help him succeed. Watson has had limited exposure to cats and has shown only mild interest. He does not get on furniture currently but would likely enjoy couch time if allowed. In summary, Watson is: Highly intelligent and eager to please Very social with other dogs High energy and thrives with structured outlets Best suited for an active home committed to ongoing training A dog who will shine with consistency, enrichment, and leadership Watson will do best in a home that understands his need for engagement and is excited to continue his training journey. With the right match, he has the potential to be an incredibly rewarding and loyal companion.

Story
Hello from sweet little Tawny! This girl is a house-broken, crate-trained, 2-year-old pup who is quick to learn and eager to please. Tawny is quiet (rarely will you hear her bark!) and very gentle. When she first meets people, she is a little skittish and submissive (often rolls on her back for belly rubs), but she gains confidence quickly and will seek affection by rubbing against you. She`s easy-peasy to leash walk. Slow introductions with other neighborhood dogs when out on walks have proven to be the best for her. She sleeps quietly on her pad in the kitchen at night and also when her humans leave the house. No separation anxiety. She would love to be part of your family and give you timid kisses and endless love! You can also watch for stories, pictures and videos about her on our Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/JrsPupsNStuffInc Ask to meet me today!! Adoption fee: $475 All dogs/puppies have been fully vetted including spay/neuter, microchipping, worming, heartworm testing and preventative treatment, flea/tick preventative, and all required age appropriate vaccinations. As required by Wisconsin Act 90, all dogs will have received a veterinarian exam (CVI) within the past 30 days. Our adoption process requires the submission of an online application at JRsPupsNStuff.org. Additional details about who we are, what we do and how to adopt can be found on our website.

WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org Meet Elsa – The Golden-Hearted Girl Who Never Stopped Believing in Love At 8 months old and 48 pounds, Elsa is a beautiful Golden Retriever–Great Pyrenees mix who somehow ended up with all the Golden personality and only the Pyrenees fluff. Sweet, friendly, eager, affectionate—this girl is sunshine in dog form. If Golden Retrievers had a motivational speaker division, Elsa would be the CEO. But her start wasn’t golden at all. Elsa spent her whole puppyhood tied to a tether outside a trailer, watching the world from a spot of dirt she never deserved. No toys. No soft beds. No one to run to. No one to run with. And yet… her heart never quit. When she first came to us, she had a little food aggression around other dogs—understandable when you’ve never known if your next meal was guaranteed. But with time, consistency, and the realization that she’s finally safe, Elsa has blossomed beautifully. She’s now doing wonderfully with her dog friends and has never shown an ounce of aggression toward people. Humans, in her eyes, are made of magic—especially the ones willing to pet her. And oh, does she love to be loved. She leans in, she wiggles, she smiles with her whole face. She gives love like she’s been storing it up for months—because she has. Elsa deserved so much more than what she got in her puppy months, but she refuses to dwell on the past. She’s too busy soaking up cuddles, handing out kisses, and living her best “I’m finally free!” life. Her capacity for forgiveness and joy would put most of us to shame. This girl is resilient, goofy, grateful, and ready. Ready for a family. Ready for a home. Ready to love—and to be loved back. If you’re looking for a sweet, gentle, funny, deeply affectionate companion with a heart big enough to light up your whole house… Elsa is your girl. Apply today at haydududeequine.org, and get ready to welcome a brave, bouncy, golden-hearted miracle into your arms, heart and home!! 🐾
