Story
Oscar Located in western Nebraska5 years oldPurebred Shih TzuNO CHILDRENDog selective, would likely be fine with 1 other calm dog his size No catsHouse trained Crate trained and knows basic commands Leash trained and LOVES walksDOES NOT SHARE FOOD Fully vetted12lbs approx This is Oscar and Oscar is an owner surrender. You see as his family grew and he aged from a baby to a little man he decided that kids just weren’t his deal. In fact if he could take a HARD PASS on tiny humans he would. Along with his growing intolerance to tiny unpredictable humans and they chaos that follows them, he also became very agitated with some of the various other dogs in the household. He absolutely adores his Pug brother but he could take or leave, mostly leave, the other canines. As a result we are looking for a CALM home for Oscar. A home without children and maybe 1 other dog his size on the calmer side. While we believe that some of his angst with the other canine siblings in the home may be a ripple result of the small human & their chaos issues, there is no way to know for sure. In order to set both parties up for success we are adamant about these stipulations.   Oscar is a sweet lil man who has come into who he is and, like all of us, has changed a bit along his journey. Oscar is a WONDERFUL dog, who deserves a WONDERFUL home that respects his desire for a more zen environment. Oscar isn’t old, he isn’t even a senior, he is in the prime of his life, he just needs a partner in crime to experience it with. If you think this dapper lil dude may be a perfect match for your home please reach out!  To Contact Us Message us through our website http://www.highplainspaw.org Message the Facebook Page at https://www.facebook.com/HighPlainsPAW Join and contact us through our FOSTER GROUP: https://www.facebook.com/groups/836373273962895/?ref=share Fill out our Adoption Application at https://www.highplainspaw.org/adoption-application Fill out our Foster Application at  https://www.highplainspaw.org/foster-application Email us at highplainspaw@gmail.com Call our VOICEMAIL at (402)957-1578 Due to his predominant breed being a Shih Tzu we will give priority to homes with BRACHYCEPHALIC BREED EXPERIENCE. Further all our brachycephalic dogs MUST vet at an AAHA certified vet, (unless you know your vet is well versed in Brachys), this is because of their extreme vet needs. Brachycephalic dogs are extremely expensive dogs to upkeep so please bare that in mind when applying and make sure you're in a financial place to take it on. $400.00 Adoption Fee (Which is considered a non refundable donation and being we are a 501c3 organization it is tax deductible. The fee itself is not negotiable, our vets don't negotiate and thus neither do we.)  Fully vetted means, altered, up to date on vaccines, HW tested if applicable and on flea/tick preventative (chemical or natural, aka sans buggies)  WE DO NOT HAVE A FACILITY ALL OUR DOGS ARE LOCATED IN FOSTER HOMES. This means there is no place for you to go in person to view our dogs. We ask that an application be filled out and we will go from there! We do ALLOW out of state adoptions, HOWEVER the adopter MUST pick the dog up in person and DRIVE or FLY (IN CABIN ONLY) the dog back at the adopters expense. We do NOT coordinate transport.  ##1614074##

Poodle (Miniature) Maltese

Story
Located in the Sidney NE area  Maltese fusion  2-3 years old Dog friendly ( 1 , 1 , )  Cat friendliness unknown Would be fine with kids  Food reactive with other dogs will need to be fed separately  we would say 97% house trained and doing well (he can mark every now and then but once told know he immediately stops, and smiles, and won’t do it again)  Crate trained and is currently working on  basic commands funny and such a clown Fine off leash he listens and has great recall Will need grooming so make sure you have that in your budget Fully vetted 12-15ish lbs    Are you someone who sleeps with a teddy bear? Are you someone who loves to laugh? Are you experienced with class clowns? Are you someone who wants to get the most out of every day? Do you need to smile more? If so !!! Meet Nico. Nico is some sort of small white floof known as a “designer dog,” but I don’t tell him that, he’s cocky enough. Nico is SO stinking’ cute, plus he smiles, which makes him kinda irresistible. He literally smiles at you every time you catch him doing something wrong, which is both irritating and hilarious at the same time. He does well for grooming, thank god because good luck trying to brush the little monster if he doesn’t want you to. He is also great with other dogs. In fact Nico spends a majority of his day hardcore playing with other dogs which is why he MUST have at least 1 playful dog, multiple playful dogs would be even better. Yes, he does settle down on the couch watching true crime documentaries or some Hallmark Christmas movies. He also adores a solid nap, he’s into snuggling and lounge time on someone’s lap. He did use to nip when super excited, we have eliminated that behavior but we don’t know if he will backslide when rehomed, so because of that we’re saying no young kids, we don’t want to hear about him “biting” a kid not do we want to set him up to fail in a home that doesn’t get this. . He’s an incredibly sweet boy and bouncing around from home to home isn’t an option we want for any dog but especially not for him. Nico is kinda like that annoying little brother you never wanted but now that he’s here you adore him . Sometimes he annoys dogs until they play with him, or attack him he’s down either way and thinks it’s a blasty. He absolutely LOVES to play and just have a canine playmate or playmates in the home. Further when you repremand him, for, let’s say, digging in the mud, or anything that’s unacceptable behavior, he smiles at you, HUGE SMILE, puts his fluffy ears up and sashays away with his tail doing a “queen wave” (to make sure you get the sass) consoling himself that he’s living with such obtuse humans. He likes to sleep with you and now after being in his foster for months he is happy to snuggle in and sleep through the night, on your pillow, by your head. This may transfer to his new home but if not it just takes him a bit to learn to snuggle in like a normal dog, once he’s there however there is no going back haha.  In his current foster home he doesn’t much care for the husband. His foster momma stays home and is responsible for all his care, sleeping arrangements, feedings, training etc. so that could have something to do with it. Nico doesn’t try to bite him or anything but he ignores the husband for the most part and barks at him incessantly if he tries to speak to him. It’s probably just him though, this happens somewhat regularly.  So while Nico does have some annoying quirks, some puppy behavior, he’s mischievous, sometimes doesn’t read social cues very well, can be a scamp and an instigator, yet, at the same time, he is the sweetest, funniest, cuddliest, happiest, cheekiest lil man and is so deserving of the most fantastic home and he will be extremely missed by his foster family and their dogs. He’s about 2-3 years old and is 12-15lbs. He’s fully vetted and ready to go to the most perfect family. We cannot wait to find his family because anyone worthy of this one in a million lil dude is going to be .  Please share so he can find someone who wants a lot of personality in a precious little floof package. $.   ( 5013 . , ' .) http://www.highplainspaw.org https://www.facebook.com/HighPlainsPAW : https://www.facebook.com/groups/836373273962895/?ref=share https://www.highplainspaw.org/adoption-application highplainspaw@gmail.com (402)957-1578  . .  means, altered, up to date on vaccines, HW tested if applicable and on flea/tick preventative (chemical or natural, aka no buggies)    , .
