Story
Luna was rescued in January of 2020. She was found as a stray who had recently had a litter. She is likely about 7-8 years old currently. We DNA tested her and her results came back 60.1% American Pit Bull Terrier, 16.4% American Staffordshire Terrier, 14.8 American Bulldog, and 8.7% Supermutt (but likely husky!) While Luna is a great dog, and friendly to all humans, she is very dog-reactive. I have a 2-year-old daughter and a newborn. Between two children, frequent travel, and anxiety about taking her on walks due to her reactivity, we would like to find a home better suited to her needs. We feel Luna would do best in a home with adults or older children. While mostly a couch-potato, Luna loves to play fetch and tug of war and go on runs! She is a snuggle bug and wants to be next to you all the time. She knows lots of commands and is very food motivated.

Story
Blue is a very smart, sweet, loving dog. He loves kids and grew up with young children in the home. He knows basic commands like sit, stay, and lay down. Anytime someone is sitting down he will curl up and snuggle. He loves to play but he is not too high energy as he also loves napping. The only time he has ever been aggressive is if he has a bone and another dog or person tries to take it away he growls but has never bitten anybody even my children who play a little rough with him. He is used to being in a kennel during the day when everyone is gone. He is really a great dog, unfortunately our family is extremely busy and not able to be home much. It hurts us that we do not have enough time at home with him. We believe he deserves better and someone that can give him the time and attention he needs.

Story
🌟 Meet Morris: Three legs, 1 giant head, and unlimited snuggles🌟 🌟 Name: Morris (formally Carnival at (MADACC)) 🎂 Age: 4 (ish) 🐶 Breed: Terrier mix 🥌 Weight: 65 lbs and gaining 💉 Vaccination Status: Morris is neutered, up to date on rabies, distemper, bordatella vaccines, heartworm testing & prevention ensuring his continued health and well-being. 🏡 Ideal Home: Morris is seeking a home with toys to chew and a couch to snuggle on. He is a medium energy boy who loves his walks (we are working on increasing his endurance after his amputation), enjoys playing fetch in the yard and a good roll in the grass. After a bit of exercise he is ready to snuggle- and he’s the best at it! He can almost be found with one of “emotional support” stuffed toys in his mouth- especially when he’s excited! 🐕 Compatibility: Morris gets along well his canine foster sister and enjoys playing tug and fetch. He does hog the human snuggles from her, but she doesn’t mind. He also gets along well with children, but due to his size, we feel he would do best with older kids. Morris has a high prey drive, so he will need a home without cats. 👂 Special Needs: Due to Morris’ front leg amputation he will need to be on high quality joint supplements for life. Maintaining a healthy weight will be key to his mobility. ✂️ Grooming: He has the softest short coat with minimal grooming requirements. Just occasional brushing and a bath (which he does great with at home). 🐾 Training: Morris has an excellent start with his training. He is crate trained, potty trained, and knows basic commands such as “sit”, “down”, “off”, and even still gives “paw” despite only having 1 front leg! He is THE PERFECT DOG!

Story
Name: Moto Moto Age:  9 week Breed: bully mix Gender: male  Weight: 10 Good with kids:  yes Good with dogs: yes Good with cats: yes Current on vaccinations: Yes Adoption also includes Certified Vet Inspection, and Prior vetting paperwork. Foster location: Weyauwega  Application & Website: https://www.ourpackanimalrescue.com/adoption.html Bio: Meet Moto Moto Yes, that Moto Moto—big personality, squishy charm, and zero awareness of personal space. Moto Moto is a 9-week-old bully mix from our adorable Hippo litter, and he is already living up to his legendary name. He’s chunky in the cutest way, confident, curious, and fully convinced the world exists for him to explore (and chew). Like all puppies, Moto Moto will need ALL the things: Training (potty, crate, manners… the whole syllabus) Socialization and confidence-building Structure, patience, consistency Love, guidance, and a sense of humor And yes… sleep deprivation, nippy teeth, and surprise messes Puppies are a ton of work, and Moto Moto will require an adopter who understands that raising a good dog doesn’t happen by accident—it takes time, effort, and commitment. But if you’re up for the challenge, the payoff is huge: a loyal, confident, well-rounded companion who grows up knowing he’s safe, loved, and supported. Moto Moto is ready to learn all the puppy things and would thrive with someone excited to put in the work and enjoy the journey. If you’ve got the skills, the patience, and the love—Moto Moto is ready for you. Apply today and start building something amazing together. Our Pack Animal Rescue,  Inc. Is an all foster based 501c3 rescue. License #487823. Meet and greets are arranged after an application has been approved.
