Story
I am currently being foster-trained in Prarie du Sac, Wisconsin and not currently located at Safe Haven. I came to Safe Haven with my 4 puppies who have all been adopted. Now I'm looking for my furever home. I was very scared at first and would bark at men and people wearing hats, preferring the company of women and my puppies. But now I am feeling more comfortable in the shelter and since my puppies all found homes I can relax and be myself. I really love running and playing fetch. I am truly happy when I have one-on-one time with employees and volunteers at the shelter. Being at the shelter for so long I have gotten jealous of other dogs I see getting the attention I want; I will bark and jump up to try and get that attention. I tend to jump up with all my 59 pounds on people to show how much I love them; you could say I get carried away when I see people I know. So, I might be better in a home with older kids or just adults. I am very good at opening doors to cabins and finding ways to get out of fenced in areas, so I'll need a home that a secure fence and cabinets. I know how to sit and come when called, I respond best to positive reinforcement with a happy voice telling me Im a good girl, because I really don't know my name!

Story
Hercules the boy! The handsomest man around town, sporting the big floppy ears and ADORABLE big maple eyes! You may be able to tell, one of Hercule's favorite things to do is getting as close as possible to ANY person, he's a certified lover boy! I am right on the money in saying Herc will make the PERFECT family dog. When he isn't enjoying his favorite parts of every day, (hanging out with people, and getting loved on incessantly!) He can typically be found snoring away on a doggy bed, or gnawing on a beloved bone! But when it comes down to playtime, Herc, at his younger age of just over 3.5 years old, is all in! He enjoys romping the dog yard with other dogs of all shapes and sizes, and sharing the wonderful game of fetch (no retrieve unless it's got to do with strutting about, then he's all in) with all of them! We know Herc will do amazingly in just about any home due to his amazing temperament, his LOVE for stuffy toys that will keep ANY person happy to supply him with more, AND because he's essentially already gotten the basics down! What could be better than an already crate-trained, gentle, basic command knowing, good on a leash pooch to be the one you adopt into your home? Let alone one that is 100% willing to keep himself occupied while you're away at work, or out at the shops! Toss this guy a bone, and he's the happiest 55 pound camper you'll ever see!
