Story
Nellie has gained a ton of confidence in her foster home and cannot wait to show her forever family her sweet disposition. She loves to snuggle up next to you on the couch and keep her nose and toes toasty. She is zippy fast to play fetch and adores other dogs. My name is Nellie and I am currently living in a foster home in Lake Mills, Wisconsin. I am approximately alost 2 years old and weigh about 30lbs. Nellie was surrendered by her Texas owner with her two siblings. This stunning and regal pup is cautious and timid when meeting new people. As she gains confidence with each new day her playful and polite personality is coming alive. She loves the dogs in her current foster home and is a quick learner to routine and expectations. She understands the tasty value of a treat and is eager learn basic commands. She loves toys, bones and games to keep her puppy brain active. She gallops and sprints to fetch tennis balls in the fenced backyard. Nellie will thrive in a home with other dog friends, a fenced yard, endless amounts of dog toys, a dog bed and a kennel to curl up in at night. She loves chin scratches and will give you soft kisses. She loves to talk when she wakes up in the morning and to let you know her excitement to be outside! She is an absolute delight who easily entertains herself and plays gently with her dog friends. Nellie is a dog's dog, and would love to have another dog in her forever home. Interested in adoption? The first step is an application at paddyspaws.blogspot.com.

She will require daily exercise and stimulation to make her a happy girl. Luna is about three years old and weighs around 35 pounds.

Illinois applications are considered if the home is owned, no small children reside in the home and if there is an excellent vet check. Sweetie, also known as Sweet Girl, lives in a foster home in Madison, Wisconsin. Sweetie is as sweet as her name implies. She is about six years old and weighs around 62 pounds. She has sadly gained a lot of extra weight and her foster mom in Wisconsin is helping her slowly shed pounds in a healthy way. Her adopter will need to be committed to doing the same to help her live her best life. In her foster home, she lives with other dogs. She does not have experience living with cats or kids though. Sweetie has not always had the best life, but since being rescued she has gotten the vet care she needed to be a happy, healthy dog. Being a bulldog, priority will be given to adopters with specific bulldog experience. Our process includes an approved application, reference checks, a homevisit, and once approved a meet and greet with the dog. Adoption fee is $250.
