Linus - Baby Male Hound [Mix]

kpaul.mallasch — Thu, 6 Mar 2008 22:47:52 -0800

What fun Linus is having outside today. He is a youngster who loves to run and play. Sadly there isn't much time for that at the shelter and that makes him sad. He would be a great dog for an active family. A home with a fenced yard would be best so that he can run all he wants and stay safely at home. Get this pup out of here! Visit Linus soon!

More About Black Jack

Hi, my name is Black Jack, but my foster mom just calls me Jack. You can imagine how I got the name Black Jack! I am a 7-8 year old 70 pound Greyhound/Great Dane mix with the body shape of a greyhound (only a little bigger) and the personality and playfulness of a youthful Great Dane. I love to talk and snuggle; mostly snuggle, but I will happily tell you what I’m thinking. My foster mom fell in love with me the minute she saw me sitting in the animal shelter with very pitiful eyes. You see, I was tied outside with a German Shepard most of my life until I was rescued and taken to the shelter. My brother was adopted from the shelter the day before I was, so I missed him very much. My foster mom came and picked me up and I’ve been an inside dog ever since. I love being inside and sleeping on my dog bed…actually I think it’s my mom’s bed, but she likes to share. I currently live with 3 other dogs and 2 cats, and I get along with everyone. I have never been aggressive with any food or treats, and I know when to back down from someone else’s treats when he/she tells me to. I don’t bother the cats at all.

I will definitely have to have a fenced in yard if I am ever going to be able to run without my leash on…and I love to run! Although it took me a while to figure out that I had to go outside to potty, I’ve got that down now and very rarely have an accident. I was unaltered when I was rescued, but I have since been neutered and fully vetted and I’m as healthy as a horse!

Jack is neutered, current on vaccines including boosters, rabies and lepto, heartworm tested negative (should be re-tested in 6 months for accuracy), microchipped, negative fecal test for internal parasites, current on flea and heartworm prevention. Jack’s adoption donation is $ 200.00 and an approved adoption application along with a home visit is required prior to adoption. Our application is available online at www.countrysideanimalrescue.org.

If you are interested in meeting me, please contact Julie Morse (my foster mom) at jmorse@acsc.net or at 765-623-3566. She will give you the details on how to begin the process.

This pet is up to date with routine shots.
This pet is already house trained.

Faith - Brittany Spaniel [Mix]

kpaul.mallasch — Wed, 20 Feb 2008 11:36:35 -0800

Meet Faith, she is approximately 1 year old and weighs around 40 pounds. She was rescued from the Animal Shelter, not just once but twice now. This little girl has had a pretty tough time so far, but you would never know it as she is such a wonderful well adjusted dog.

She is a very well behaved dog and has excellent manners. She knows how to sit, shake, down, stay and leave it. Faith is housebroken and crate trained and if you tell her to get in her crate when you leave the house she will go right to it. She loves her crate, so just leave the door open when you are home because she may just want to go in there and hang out or take a nap.

Faith loves to play including tug-of-war, fetch and will bring it back!! She likes to have a toy box for all of her toys so she can drag them all out around the house her foster mom said. She loves raw hide chews and hard bones, but she can't have soft toys as she will chew them up and shred them into pieces along with leaving out slippers, gloves, shoes, so don't leave anything out that she can't determine is not a doggie toy. She is just like a puppy in that regard, still in the chewing stage!!!

Currently, Faith is living with another larger dog (Lab 9 years old) and they get along just great although she would prefer to have a younger more active playmate.

Faith enjoys going for car rides and going bye-bye to get a McDonalds hamburger!!

She will also entertain you with her singing!! Yes, she will sing back to you "I love you" when you sing it to her!!! This is very cute and you will see this dog has so much personality and someone took lots of time with her to make her the dog she is today!!!

She is a cuddle bug and loves to snuggle with you and of course wants to sleep with you in bed at night. Faith has turned into a wonderful dog and plays very well with children of all ages. She was introduced to one cat and did chase after it, so were not sure if she would learn to do okay with cats or if she should be in a home without cats.

She is a fast learner as you can see by all her accomplishments mentioned above, so learning manners with cats is probably not an issue for her.

Currently in her foster home she does not have a fenced in yard, but it would be very nice in her new forever home so she could get lots of exercise and play with another dog.

Let us remind you how smart she is, she can open a gate and get out, so you will need to lock the gate and make sure your fence is tall enough that she can't get over.

She does not like the cold weather so right now she would only want to go out for quick potty breaks or for a nice long walk with a sweater on of course. Last but not least, she is a very good watch dog and will let you know when someone is around!!!

Faith has an adoption donation of $200 and that will include a dog that is spayed, heartworm tested and current on prevention, current vaccines including rabies, bordetella and lepto, fecal tested, microchip, current on flea prevention and a great dog. If you are interested in being Faith's forever guardian, please fill out an adoption application on our website at www.countrysideanimalrescue.org to meet this precious little girl!!!

Freckles - Border Collie, Australian Shepherd [Mix]

kpaul.mallasch — Wed, 13 Feb 2008 02:44:56 -0800

I'm Freckles and I was recently rescued from a shelter on 01/18/08. My new foster parents are getting to know me and learning more and more about me each day I'm here. They are teaching me exciting new things, like what a leash is, how to sit and stay and something they call "manners". I have been crate trained as well and really do enjoy my crate, but I have lots of free time outside of it as well. It looks like there are other dogs here for me to play with and I'm going to slowing meet them all, but I had a bad case of kennel cough when I arrived and have been isolated from them so far.

There are some cats here too, and I'm very curious about them. I don't know if they like me or if I like them or even want to play with them yet. I will have to let you know about all that later. I weigh 45 pounds and I am approximately 1 year old and I am all puppy!!!

I'm not sure what breed of a dog I am, but we think I look like a Border Collie or maybe Australian Shepherd or a Spaniel mix.

I'm very friendly once I get to know you, but it is obvious that I did not have proper socialization as a young one. When meeting new people I might grumble for just a bit, but then I'm okay after that and all I want from you is your undivided attention. I am extremely sweet, loving and I like to cuddle, when I can settle down. I crave love and attention and just can't get enough.

I also have a lot of energy, so my new home will need a big fenced yard for me to go out and play and run. My foster parents recommend that I go to an obedience class right away with my new guardians.

Wanna go? Adoption donation is $200 and includes neuter, microchip, heartworm test which was negative, but needs retested in 6 months for accuracy, vaccines including boosters, rabies, lepto, bordetella, fecal test, current heartworm and flea prevention.

For more information about me, please contact my foster mom at kimkase@msn.com or if you are interested in being my new guardian for life please fill out an adoption application on-line. Approved adoption application and home visit required.

Scooby - Irish Setter

mchs — Wed, 13 Feb 2008 02:14:39 -0800

Hi, I'm Scooby. My how time flies. I am told that I am an Irish setter mix but what would I know about such things, huh? What I do know is that I am a rather shy and timid fellow until I get to know you. After the formalities are over I love to talk - the humans say that I am very verbal with my communications skills. Hey, I almost forgot - I dearly LOVE to have my face tickled That would make me laugh if I were able to. So, how about coming down here and give me a chance to impress you with my charming ways?
