Story
Meet Raven! This pretty girl is a 3 year old Pitbull mix. She was adopted from here as a puppy but sadly, she was returned recently for not getting along with the cat in the home. Raven is the happiest girl! She is content and happy no matter what she is doing. Whether she is snuggled up in her bed with her favorite toy or playing in the play yard, she is always happy. She also loves to share her toys and will bring it to you. Raven is well mannered but needs to work on her jumping a little bit. She also keeps her kennel very clean. We are unsure how she is with other dogs but all dogs in the home will need to be present to meet her. She can’t be in a home with cats. Raven will be available for adoption tomorrow at 12pm and is eager to meet you.

Story
We are excited to introduce Carter, a sweet and loving senior dog who is sure to steal your heart. Carter is a gentle giant with a playful side, making him the perfect companion for those looking for a calm yet fun-loving dog. While he enjoys spending time in dog play groups, his energy does tire out quickly, and after a good romp, he`s ready to settle in for a cozy snuggle. Carter is affectionate, kind, and would be an ideal addition to any home looking for a low-key yet loving companion. If you`re looking for a sweet, loyal friend, Carter is your guy! Come on into the Humane Society of Southern Wisconsin and visit with me!Carter is the H&H Exteriors Dog of the Month! This means that our friends down at H&H Exteriors have paid for his adoption fee! Thank you to our Pet Spotlight partner!*Carters care is being sponsored by Sean M. - Thank you Sean!

Story
Daisy is a spunky energetic almost 7 year old 65lb pit bull. She has been a joy and brought much love to me. She is a great dog and would do exceptional well in a 1 dog household. She loves attention. I have a heavy heart as I have to rehome her. I have a senior dog that Daisy is no longer getting along with and bullying. She gets jealous of the attention the other dog requires. Im looking for a loving home where she will get the love and attention she needs and deserves. She is allergic to chicken. Loves water and taking baths. I can give more details about her upon request.

Story
Meet Carmy! Age: Adult Weight: 50 pounds Housetrained: yes Crate trained: I don't do well in crates and the stress of being in one makes my tummy upset. Good with: Dogs, cats, kids (I love the kiddos!) Special needs: I have separation anxiety, so I take meds to help me feel better I'm a super happy and energetic boy and I love my humans so much! My favorite thing ever is to be outside with you – whether we are going for a walk around the neighborhood, a hike in the woods, or playing fetch in the yard. An active forever family would be so much fun! I like to play tug of war, chew on bones, solve brain games, and shake my favorite stuffies. I am super smart (maybe a little too smart sometimes), so I love to learn new tricks for treat rewards. I'd enjoy having other furry friends in my forever home, so I don’t get too lonely when you are gone. I love to wrestle and chase my dog friends and I like to cuddle with my cat friends (if they let me).    Since I have separation anxiety, I'll need my medication and an understanding family that is willing to work with me as I get used to their routine. In my foster home, I am now comfortable being home by myself for up to 8 hours during the daytime, but it took me several weeks to work up to that much time alone without being stressed.   I'm a pretty quiet dude, but I do bark and jump up when I get really excited – mostly when we are about to go outside for a walk. I’ve been working on my listening skills when I’m excited or distracted and I am getting better! Treats help :) I’m a big cuddler, but, fair warning, I will take up all your personal space on the couch or bed because I like to snuggle close. I can’t wait to find a forever family that is willing learn and grow with me. I promise to pay you back with lots of love and kisses! Carmy is fostered in the Madison, WI area.

Weight: 60 lbs Foster home: Marshfield, WI Activity level: Higher, in that I need daily stimulation and exercise! Friendly with: dogs and older children. I might knock over someone little. Cats are not a good match for me. I want to chase! Sleep style: Snuggled with my humans, if they will let me, otherwise a couch, dog bed, or kennel. Bark-o-meter: 2 (I will let you know when the UPS guy is trespassing on our driveway and also when I want to come back inside from going potty) Fashion: Itsy bitsy teeny weeny pink polka dot bikini, cause I have the bod for it! Signature color: Pink! I am such a girly girl! Walk out song: AC/DC~ Giving the Dog a Bone Favorite season: Winter~ I want to run my nose through all that glorious winter snow! Personality: Smart, loving, curious. Signature move: I am your shadow. I follow you into the bathroom, I help with dishes, I will tell you what we want when you open the fridge, and can even help with laundry Loves: Giving kisses. I need a home that loves getting them too! I also love mealtime, car rides, food, belly rubs, ear scritchies, smiling my very bestest wrinkly smile at you, jumping and dancing, running, playing, and being super active Bucket list: Building a snowman. I recently got to sit in Santa's chair and meet him! **While Miss Blair enjoys other dogs, she would do best as your one and only. She does not seem to understand corrective actions from other dogs and ignores their cues, which may result in fights. She knows sit and stay, and we are working on hand signals in my foster home. She is very smart and eager to please. She has tons of energy and would love to run, hike, bike or walk with you. Next to you is her very favorite place to be!
