Story
You may recognize this good girl. Diamond is back with us at MHS now and she is hoping to find a family who is a perfect fit for her. Yes, she was returned to us, but that is not necessarily all bad! We now know new information that will help us set her up for success in her next home! Diamond is the perfect companion. She is loyal, loving, affectionate, and is very tuned-in when she is with you. She's an easy-going, lazy, couch potato and is content with a life of leisure! Don't get us wrong, Diamond loves daily walkies, but for the most part she is quite chill. Diamond's ideal home would be one with a quiet environment. We are basically calling all introverts! Lots of visitors and running around and commotion is not her pace and we totally understand that! So, if you are someone who has a low-key lifestyle and likes to snuggle close to their dog, you may want to come and meet Diamond. She asks for a slow introduction to new people but once she feels safe with you, she is all in. The way that she trusts our staff and volunteers is incredible. She just needs time to learn that new people are just new friends. After she is over that hump, she likes to sit right next to you and ask for belly rubs once she knows you. She's done best interacting with equally playful and friendly male dogs. Diamond is so people-oriented that she'd also be content to have it be just her. She does ask for no kitty friends. Since a quiet home setting would be best for Diamond, we think teenagers and older is a great option! Diamond is about six and a half years old and is spayed. We hope you see all the love Diamond has to offer. Please come meet her!

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
"Adoptable Flower's typical day is eating breakfast before I go to work, going out for a short walk/potty-break, then I assume she sleeps in my bed while I am gone! When I get home from work, she is waiting for me at the front door wiggling her little body all over the place. She usually has her squeaky pig in her mouth. We go out for a walk around the yard, then it's time for dinner. She goes out a couple more times before bedtime. I think she would absolutely love to be adopted by a family with a fenced-in yard so she can run around whenever she wants and however fast she wants...unless she is adopted by someone who likes to go for walks and maybe run a little bit, lol. She really is a sweet girl. She likes to be with people. Wants to sit on your lap, but also will just chill on the floor with her toys, too. She definitely likes toys. She is great with my grandkids (about four years and older). She waits for you to tell her it's okay to eat, plus she eats any pills without spitting them out." -Flower's foster mom. Flower welcomes visitors with open paws and has absolutely wonderful manners. She is long overdue and is very deserving of a family to call her own. She asks to be the only furbaby and is waiting patiently to be chosen. She is about five years old and is spayed.

Story
Time with Pookie is the best way we can think of to spend our time. She has done amazing meeting respectful kiddos! She's also gone on several field trips, and she gets the same review every time: "She LOVES to snuggle!" If you are someone who finds snuggling with your dog relaxing and therapeutic, please come meet Pookie. Or if your kiddos need a loyal best friend, come meet Pookie! She will hop upon your lap if invited but is also quite respectful. She loves to chase tennis balls and play fetch. She'll always choose interacting with people over playing. She's done quite well with submissive, friendly shelter dogs! Pookie would ask for a slow introduction to dog-savvy resident kitties. She is about two years old and is spayed and is the ultimate sweetheart.

Female, 3 yrs 1 mo
Michigan City, IN
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
This itty bitty potato-ish pittie is Spud. Spud is a good girl and we all love Spud. She's a lil' shorty and is only about 48-pounds. Perfectly sized for cozy cuddles! When she gets excited, her little paws do the cutest tippy-taps and she melts our hearts. The way to Spud's heart is not through food...this girl is all about the booty scratches and patience. She has a timid and reserved personality. We think that the shelter environment isn't helping her stress, so please be willing to spend time with Spud so she can get to know you. Once she is out of her kennel for a bit, she relaxes and shows off her silly side, which has been so fun to get to know. A quiet and calm home is where we think she'd be happiest. For example, Spud's zoomies are hilarious. We could watch her zoom all day. She also likes tennis balls! When she has been up in the office with us, she will walk around soliciting affection and pets. Since she is still a bit unsure, we are working in dog and cat introductions slowly to set her up for success. We think she may be most comfortable having the home to herself as the only furbaby. We've not observed her behavior around children but think she would feel most comfortable if children were about 10ish and older. Spud is about three years old and is spayed.

Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
This enthusiastic, happy-go-lucky, everyone-is-his-friend good boy is Bean Bear. His tail wags so fast it turns into a blur! We're not sure we've ever met a more joyful pup! He's such a great size; he weighs about 39-pounds! He's got a derpy lil' personality and we can't get enough of him. We would love to see Bean Bear find someone who is active and energetic like he is. If you're a hiker, we could see him being right next to you the entire way. If you're a runner or a walker, we just know he'd be there with you to complete your daily steps. Another awesome thing about Bean Bear is that he really does seem to enjoy meeting people. We are teaching him polite manners and he sure is catching on already! Once he has hung out with you for a little bit, he settles down and is super willing to work for treats. Bean Bear knows how to sit and he is very tuned in to whoever he is working with! If you have another dog friend, they should be high-energy and love to play like Bean Bear does. As far as kitties go, a slow introduction would be best as Bean Bear is an active dude! We think kiddos should be sturdy, so maybe 8ish and up. Bean Bear is about one year old and he is neutered, so come to MHS to meet him! You won't be disappointed...trust us!

Story
Beautiful Della. Her eyes are so soulful and her personality is gentle and loving. She is about five years old, is spayed, and is about 65-pounds. We know we just told you that she was gentle, but we think it is best for you to come and meet her to see just how gentle Della really is. Della is definitely a pup that you don't want to miss the chance to adopt. She's special and is so extremely eager-to-please and be loved. She loves tasty treats but is most motivated by praise and affection. She not only sits politely but she will shake paws like the polite lady she is. Della would be the most amazing fursister to lucky, respectful kiddos. From what we have seen so far, we think she may also do well with relaxed dog friends, too. Stay tuned for her kitty update! Daily walkies, daily snuggle sessions, and lots of fun memories will be in your future if you make the awesome decision to come meet and adopt Della.

Story
Ghost is a rescue from the shelter in LaPorte, IN. He is 6 years old, and a very sweet dog and loves attention and scratches. Ghost loves to play ball and run around open spaces. He is extremely loyal and loving to me, he will be by your side with you all day. He is the most loving, happy, and fun dog I have ever had! He is very protective and would be a perfect guard dog on a fenced in property or a farm. He can be very protective around other pets, mainly male dogs and sometimes cats, sometimes he will not be friendly and needs to be held back. He can also be possessive of toys and bones, especially to people that are not his owner, so just tell people not to take them from him. Also he is not great with children, he can scratch and snip sometimes. It just takes some time to learn how he is and how to treat him. I am moving and unfortunately cant take him with me, but with the right home he is a great dog!

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Calling all Boxer dog fans! One of our amazing volunteers was curious about Nala's breeds, so she ordered a DNA test...we now know that Nala is: 53.4% Boxer + 27.2% American Bully + 19.4% American Pit Bull Terrier! Talk about three amazing breeds combined to make one 100% good girl! And, oh yeah! Her adoption fee is sponsored to an approved applicant! She is always so wiggly. You would've never guessed she came to us starving and scared. Let's not forget that she has the BEST smile and she is always cheesing so hard that she squints! She is so very sweet and is always so excited to come out and play! We like to describe Nala as an independent gal but also very loyal to people. She would do fine as the only dog but also has done well with other playful pups. Nala has done well with kiddos about 8ish and up. She loves car rides and is always looking out the window. She's such a sweetheart. Nala's ideal family would be one where she can join them for daily walks. She would also love to play fetch with tennis balls because that makes her so happy! She is the best fetcher ever! She also loves sniffing through snufflemats. Nala is a treat-motivated gal! Oh, and another amazing thing about her is that she takes treats so gently. She is about six and a half years old and is spayed.
