Story
Julien is an absolute dreamboat! Not only is he a slam-dunk in the looks department, he's mastered the "puppy eyes"; and just sucks you in with one look. Julien is sweet as can be, just melting in your hands and showering you with kisses. This kid is a master snuggler, and his tail never stops wagging. Although Julien does totally fine with other dogs when a barrier such as a fence or kennel door is involved, he would prefer not to share your attention and be the only dog in his forever home. Julien came to us with many scars on his face and legs, so we're assuming he may have been attacked in the past and understandably feels a bit nervous around other dogs. Julien has spent some time in our staff offices, as he's a favorite around the shelter. He loves to help with office duties and make sure everyone stays on task. After a few minutes of exploring, Julien settles in and lays on his bed all stretched relaxing. Julien is one fantastic pup, that's for sure! All of our animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on age appropriate vaccines.

Story
Squiggle is the most adorable little guy who came to us the day he was born due to having a cleft palate. He was unable to nurse, and had to be tube fed to keep him alive. Now that he's grown, we are consulting with a canine dentist to determine if his cleft palate will need surgical repair, so he is available for foster-to-adopt in the meantime! Squiggle is currently living in a foster home with one of our employees, and is the BEST puppy! He gets along fantastically with other dogs, kids, cats and would love another canine friend in his forever home. Small man Squigs is crate trained, potty trained, and loves nothing more than to be in your lap at all times. He is going to make someone very happy! Squiggle would do best in a home committed to continuing his basic training and socialization so he can become a well-rounded dog.

Story
Hope is being fostered in LA. Hope is a sweet and happy girl. She does have some vision loss. Hope is fit, healthy and a very loyal pup full of energy and love. She is ready to fill your days with adventure and nights with cuddling. Hope is looking for a daytime exercise partner with whom she can run, play with toys, engage in games of catch, tug of war and sometimes long silly leaps just for fun. In the evening a snuggle buddy is in order so she can cuddle close with her head on the lap of her human. Hope is very loyal and loving to her person. This sweetheart is well behaved and very likeable. She does well on a leash and is really great about going to her kennel when asked. Hope enjoys meeting new people and they, her. She is so adored at the vets office that they treat her like the “Belle of the Ball” giving her all kinds of special attention and loving. Hope, with all her positive qualities is still a youngster and often doesn’t know her own strength, so she can sometimes play rough. Slow introductions would be best. She plays well with most dogs, but prefers unassertive canine friends and would do well in a home without small children or cats. (Transports within 18 hours travel time are available to approved adopter.) BDRA has voted against the use of electrical fencing effective immediately.

Story
Sammi is a 2.5 year old fun loving pittie mix. With 1.5-2 hrs of exercise/mental enrichment/play a day she'll snuggle right up with you. She loves doggie friends, especially the carefree playful types. She's also pretty good at matching energy with more laid-back dogs. Sammi is always up for activities. She loves trick training and is very food motivated. Obstacle courses are super fun; jumping, perching, crawling, and weaving. Flirt pole is her favorite. Sammi has had a significant amount of training and would do best with an experienced dog person who is willing and able to maintain. One ongoing focus is meeting new people, specifically men. She also struggles moderately with being alone for an entire workday and can be destructive. She would do best with someone who works from home, able to provide her a midday break, and/or doggy daycare. Her current trainer is willing to offer support during meeting, transition, and beyond. Sammi is spayed and current on all vaccines.

Story
1 year old (estimated) Spayed female 53 lbs. Has done well with other dogs Looking for a home with children 14 years or older No known experience with cats I'm a fun-loving, energetic girl who’s bursting with excitement for life! I have so much energy I sometimes don’t know what to do with it, but I promise I’m eager to learn and get better with a little patience—and some tasty treats as rewards! I absolutely love running, playing with toys, and keeping busy with my favorite peanut butter Kongs. Once I’ve burned off my energy, all I want is to be close to you, snuggling up like the big lap dog I secretly think I am. I’ve done well meeting other dogs, though I can be a bit much for calmer pups. I’m working on my leash manners, but I do know how to sit! If you’re ready for a best friend who will learn and grow with you, I’d love to meet you! I have been waiting a while to find my home so my adopter can name their own adoption fee when they take me home! The online adoption listing websites require that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our dogs. Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable so for most of the dogs we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We encourage you to select your new companion by considering each dog's individual personality and pet qualities instead of relying on a breed label that is only a guess.January 5, 2025, 4:32 pm

Story
Introducing Tutti, the lovable Boxer mix with a heart full of affection and a zest for life! Hi, I'm Tutti, a spirited and affectionate Boxer mix ready to bring joy to your life! With my charming personality and playful nature, I'm the perfect companion for anyone seeking a loyal and loving pet. I absolutely adore my humans and thrive on cuddles and quality time together. Whether we're snuggled up on the couch or enjoying a leisurely walk in the park, I'll be right by your side, wagging my tail with excitement. I find great pleasure in the company of my loved ones and will shower you with endless affection and loyalty. One of my favorite pastimes is chasing balls and toys. Throw one my way, and I'll happily engage in an enthusiastic game of fetch. I'm always up for outdoor adventures, so count me in for long walks, hikes, or exploring new places. The fresh air and open spaces truly bring out the best in me! Having a four-legged friend unfortunately isn't going to be in the cards for me. I'll do best in a home where I am the only pet. I take pride in my impeccable house manners. I am housebroken and have mastered the art of kennel training, though I must admit that I have a soft spot for the couch or your cozy bed. After a day full of activities, nothing makes me happier than curling up beside you for a well-deserved snuggle session. If you're looking for an affectionate, fun-loving, and loyal companion, look no further than me, Tutti! Together, we'll create cherished memories and embark on countless adventures. I'm ready to become an integral part of your loving home and bring an abundance of joy and companionship into your life. So, what are you waiting for? Let's start our incredible journey together! **Our process includes an approved application, reference checks, a homevisit, and once approved a meet and greet with the dog. Please do not apply if pets in the home are not up to date per our website requirements or are not altered. Wisconsin applications are priority, but Illinois applications will be considered if no small children are present in the home, the home is owned, and excellent vet reference can be provided. We cannot process applications from other states. Adoption fee is $350 unless otherwise noted above. Puppies under 1 year of age accept application for families with children over 6 years of age for large breeds and over 8 years of age for small breeds. Since they are still puppies, dogs under 1 will require a basic obedience and puppy training class, and spay/neuter at the owners expense.

Story
Hey, I`m Gia. My friends describe me as super sweet and cuddly. I can be nervous with new places and people. Once I do get comfortable I love butt scratches and tug-o-war. I feel safest in my crate when home alone. Rowdy dogs may be a bit much for me due to my shyness. If you think I could be the cuddle bug for you, you can give me a visit at the shelter! Medical History: I appear to be a healthy Adult, but it`s always a good idea to set up an appointment with my new vet soon, so that we can meet and make plans to keep me happy and healthy!Weight: 41 lbAdoption Fee: $ 375 + taxIf you`d like to meet me, click the `Learn About the Adoption Process` button below to plan a visit to the shelter!
