Story
Meet Krillin! This 5-year-old shepherd mix is a friendly, loyal boy who gets along well with both dogs and people. When Krillin is happy, he’ll serenade you with the "song of his people"—a true shepherd through and through! Krillin has shown all the wonderful traits you’d expect from a shepherd: intelligence, alertness, and a strong desire to bond with his family. He’s becoming stressed in the kennel environment and is ready for a quiet, loving home where he can truly relax. Krillin is looking for a family who understands the shepherd mindset and can offer him the care, structure, and attention he needs. If you're ready for a loyal companion who will bring joy, love, and a bit of melody to your home, Krillin would love to meet you!

Story
Billie is living in a foster home. Please submit an application from our website and/or email dogs@heartlandanimalshelter.org to learn if you are a match! Scroll through her pictures to see all her cute video content! Are you looking for a loyal, chill, fun, and loving companion? If you are, then we already have a lot in common. My name is Billie and I am a beautiful, wise, 7-year-old, German Shepard with a loyal, gentle and nurturing soul. What I dream most about, is being by my special person's side. I see us hanging out in a quiet home where we can be all chill and cozy by the TV, having fun with enrichment activities, and going for lots of walks. I also want to show off my talents, and continue to learn new tricks and skills with you. You can think of me as a bit of a social introvert. Being with people one-on-one is something I love best. I feel most comfortable in very small groups of people and I do prefer people to other animals. New dog friends and strangers can sometimes overwhelm me. The volunteers and staff at Heartland rave about how fast I catch onto things, my snuggling abilities, and gentleness while on walks. I keep my kennel clean since I always do my business outside during my walks. Honestly, the folks are so good to me at Heartland, and I love my routine. Even though I am very happy here, have made a ton of human friends, and have settled into a great routine, I sometimes overhear the wonderful peeps at the shelter talk about how much they want me to find my forever person that I can call my own. I know that's what they want for me, even though they are really going to miss me a lot. I also know they will be dedicated to working with me and you so that we can get to know each other and have the best relationship ever. More than anything, I want to live out my best life with my special person who will make a forever commitment to me. I prefer a quiet, adult home, with one, possibly two people to love, and would like to be your one and only pet. In return, I will love you with my entire being and will make you very proud of me. Plus, there are some added bonuses, my adoption fee has been sponsored by a generous donor and I have a $250 training scholarship! My friends at Heartland are dedicated to helping us get to know each other and will support us along the way. What more can we ask for? Please schedule to meet me real soon, I have so much love to give. Billie's adoption fee is sponsored! This animal is spayed, up to date on core vaccines, and Heartworm negative

Story
Anyone looking for a big dog? Look no further, I’m probably the biggest dog here right now. I love to run and if you call me, I come back running at full speed. I love attention and lots of petting. My favorite spot for little, or actually big “scratches” is the underside of my neck. I am always ready to have fun.
