Story
Hi ! I am Pleasant - That is what they called me when I came to Rescue and I try REALLY hard to live up to my name. I ended up in rescue thru no fault of my own. I had a really happy life before, I even wagged my tail so much part of it is missing but that doesn’t stop me from showing you lots of love! I was really sad when my owner passed away and I didn’t have anywhere to go. My foster Mom says I am sooo smart - I taught myself how to use the doggy door & I am really good at going outdoors for my personal relief. I also am very good at potty pads, if I need to. I love to go outside, smell everything, and enjoy the sunshine so I would really like a home with a fence. But if you don’t have a fence it is not a deal breaker as I have excellent leash manners & love a good walk, esp with friends . I am hard of hearing so please go slow with me, for that reason I might do better in a quieter home. I was a little shy at first in my new digs but I am playing with my foster bros nicely. I do not know how I would do with felines, but am pretty chill & not much bothers me. I am a very healthy, active senior ISO a similar human to hang with & share love .If you think you can help me out I am available thru IN Italian Greyhound Rescue . Please reach out to indianaigrescue@comcast.net for an application or topironhorse2000@hotmail.com for more info Dogs are available in Indiana and bordering states only

Story
Hi, my name is Princess Pearl! I am going to be four years old in March, I think. My human that I lived with for the last few years passed away recently. My foster family is great, but they have another dog and a couple of cats that I’m not getting along with so well. I have lots of love to give to my human and my ideal home doesn’t have any other pets. I’m very smart, very loyal and pretty well trained. I’m crate trained and feel very comfortable in my safe place.

Story
Do you own a couch? Can I come plop my butt on it? Do you enjoy Netflix and just chilling? That sounds like a good time to me! I am a laid back girl that just enjoys relaxing and hanging out. Some sniffing around outside is ok, too. I do have some lumps on me but they just give me character. That guy in a white coat said the pumps are fine but I should not be given so many treats. How rude! I love my treats. He did say I could go for more walks, though. That would be fine with me. I met those pesty things called cats and I thought they were snacks. I guess that is frowned upon so I guess I need a home without them. I am now in a foster home and doing very well! Come me meet me! 260-463-4142.

Story
Hi, I'm Rin! I'm just a little pup full of energy and love. My days are spent exploring my surroundings, finding joy in the smallest things like a squeaky toy or a soft blanket. I'm a quick learner, too! I've already mastered 'sit'. My favorite part of the day? Cuddle time. There's nothing better than snuggling up for a good nap. I'm playful, always ready for a game of fetch or a romp around the yard. But what I really want is a family to share all these moments with. Adopting me means endless love, laughter, and a loyal friend forever. I will need help learning not to pull on leash or jump up but I hope with some treat training and time spent with me it will be quick learning!

Story
Sheba needs a photo shoot, but she's been busy raising her puppies and hasn't felt so glamorous. She is full of personality and way too smart for her own good. If she doesn't like where we have put her, she will find a way to get herself moved. And it's usually closer to the people, she forgets she is a dog. She's sassy, but can be the biggest sweetheart also. She got stung by a bee today and took it like a champ, but instead of eating her wet food with Benadryl out of her bowl, she had us feed it to her on a spoon. We love to spoil her! Sheba is ADDICTED to toys. She will run a huge ball with her face all over the grassy area, she plays fetch, but doesn't always bring it back. Because that's her personality, playing hard to get. She was a fantastic mom and is now ready to break out of here and start her life again.
