Story
MEET BUBBA — 3 YEARS OLD, LAB PYRENEES MIX  Some dogs walk into your life, and you can just feel how badly they want to belong. Bubba is one of them. This big, gentle boy came from Louisiana and was surrendered to the shelter with two other dogs when his owner could no longer afford to care for them. He didn’t understand why everything familiar disappeared overnight — he just knew he had to start over. A few weeks later, another rescue committed to taking him. Bubba was pulled from the shelter and was *so* eager to arrive at his temporary foster home in Louisiana… but at the very last minute, the foster backed out.  Return to the shelter? Start all over again? Instead, Bubba was taken to boarding — where he stayed for two long weeks. He was restless. He lost weight. He paced and cried for human companionship. For a dog like Bubba, “boarding” wasn’t a break… it was heartbreak.  Today, Bubba is finally safe, secure, and understood. He’s around 66 lbs right now and working his way back to his healthy weight of about 80 lbs — a big, loving Lab/Pyrenees boy with the sweetest soul.  Bubba is a shadow dog — the kind who follows you from room to room, grateful just to be near someone who cares. He doesn’t ask for much. Just kindness, consistency, and a family who won’t give up on him. Bubba has some teeth that are ground down, likely from chewing on something rough during a difficult period in his past. Dogs who are tied out sometimes chew to get off the chain. The good news: he has no pain, and he eats normally. It’s just a small reminder of what he’s overcome — and how ready he is for a better life. Bubba has tested positive for heartworm. He shows no symptoms of the infection and is currently on slow kill treatment. All necessary medications will be provided to the adopter, and additional details about his care will be shared once an application is submitted. He is up to date on vaccinations, neutered, and microchipped. Adoption Criteria:  No crating — Use a baby gate if not home Fenced backyard required (no invisible fences)  Someone who is home more during the day  Children must be 7 years of age or older  Bubba is being fostered in South Bend, Indiana. His adoption fee is $395  Please put in an application on our website. www.indianasaveadog.com  ##2696542##

Story
This sweet 4–5 year old Lab mix is ready for her forever home.She was rescued from a junk yard in early December during extreme cold, along with her two baby girls. Her puppies have since found wonderful families — now it’s finally her turn to experience the same love and stability.The vet estimates she’s between 4 and 5 years old. We believe she was used for breeding and then abandoned, as her tail had been cut off. Despite everything she’s been through, she is incredibly loving, loyal, and eager to bond.She gets along well with our Shih Tzu and has shown she can live peacefully with other pets.

Lexi was found by a friend walking her own dogs in the woods. Lexi ran up friendly and ready for a family. My friend couldn’t have Lexi do to her lease and already have two big dogs, that friend asked if we would take her in. Lexi has been an amazing addition to our family now for over a 1 year. Due to medical circumstances, we are unable to afford her. Lexi is loving, fun, engaging and protective. She love to play catch and cuddle.

Story
We adopted Mariposa from lakeshore paws. She matched my son’s personality and energy perfectly. Shes house trained, but is a princess. Hates the cold and not a fan of the grass. She rather go on walks in any weather. It it’s wet, she will go hide and refuse to go out unless it’s a walk. Loves her walks and treats. Fairly quiet and only barks if someone’s walking up to the house.

Story
Hello, I’m looking to rehome my Bailey Girl She’s about 7, older lab retriever mix or maybe lab sharpei lady that needs/deserves more than I can give. I’m always away at work and she’s pretty much just in a room all day. I’m looking for someone who will have patience with her. She’s scared of men, I believe whoever had her before I got her, must’ve been a mean male. So any man in house would need to be an animal person or not a loud angry person (yall know who u are or who your husband is.) I don’t mean to be rude, but I’m struggling with giving up my dog. I just want a good and loving home for her. She was good with small children some years ago. I can’t speak for now because she’s older and we don’t have her around littles. I’m looking for someone who will genuinely love my dog. She’s old and I can’t imagine putting her in a situation where she’s being mistreated. Please message me telling me about yourself and why you may be a good fit for Bailey.
