Story
Hi, my name is Gigi! I’m an Akita mix about 3 years old. I’m a very sweet girl and love to run, play, and stretch out in the sun. I really enjoy exploring my world through all its fantastic smells. Chasing small animals is always fun, so a fenced-in yard is a must to make sure I don’t get carried away. Slow introductions are best for me, as I can be a little timid with strangers, but once I’ve warmed up to you, I can be your best pal, whether playing outside or hanging around on the couch. If you give me belly rubs, I’ll be your friend forever! My foster brother and I have a great time playing with each other, and I get along with other dogs once I get to know them. I’m looking for a loving, patient family that can help me grow and build my confidence by gently introducing me to new environments and experiences. Can you be my forever home? *** We have no idea why she’s been waiting so long. She is obviously gorgeous and sweet! She is a careful girl but loves her people fiercely! She is more nervous around new men, but warms up fine as she looooooves her foster dad so much. She is an active girl and loves to run and play with other dogs. In fact, she tends to do best with other dogs around because they help her feel more confident and secure. This pretty girl needs nothing but a little patience and love. If interested in meeting Gigi, fill out an application today! https://www.jotform.us/form/43196636952162Thank you for your interest in adopting a pet from Guardians of the Green Mile Inc.

Story
Thor is really playful and has lots of energy. He's fun and loving. He loves to go on walks and explore everything. Unfortunately he has bad separation anxiety and needs someone that will be with him and I work nights so when I leave he will bark and howl the whole night. He needs attention and someone willing to be patient with him because he has a lot of energy. He would be happy in a big backyard, ideally fenced because he can jump high and akitas are really good at escaping. All in all he needs a loving family that will give him his forever home.

Story
Husky experience & 6' fence required. No cats/small animals. Kids 12+. Luna is a 7yo husky. She came from IL where she kept escaping from an unsecured yard. She will test gates and fencing but does not go over. She does like making some independent landscaping decisions, but isn't very yard destructive and likely isn't going to quickly tunnel out as some huskies do. Luna does have epilepsy (a controllable disease that causes seizures) but doesn't have ANY seizures as long as she takes her pill twice a day. Her last refill at CVS cost $27 for a 2 month supply. Luna LOVES to run and play and regularly gets the husky zoomies. Her other most favorite thing in the world is being brushed. Luna is an absolute lover and loves getting loved on. Being brushed hits all of that for her. And is a major plus for you! Luna would do best with another chill male dog or on her own. She gets along great with her foster brother but has some resource guarding issues with her foster sister. As long as there aren't any toys down and her foster mom isn't sitting on the couch, Luna and her foster sister do OK together for a few hours at a time. Crate trained, knows basic commands, doing well on learning leash and car manners but it's a work in progress Luna is available through Guardians of the Green Mile (www.gotgm.org) of Portage, IN.
