Story
MEET BOWMAN!!! Bowman came into our shelter last week as an owner surrender. The owner was originally going to put Bo down due to a few allegations that this dog was vicious and aggressive. Upon meeting him, Bowman was jumping on us, but absolutely no signs of aggression. At the shelter, he still has not shown he is an “aggressive” or “vicious” dog. Does he need some training? Absolutely. But he is a big marshmallow full of LOVE!!! Bowie just adores his people, men and women. He sits and shakes…only for treats! Bowman likes to run around our back area, and constantly is getting the “zoomies”! He’s such a good boy, but needs to go to a home with no dogs or cats. Please email peopleforpets.director@gmail.com to inquire more information or to get an adoption application!

Story
Meet SWEET SHEBA!!! Sheba is a 3 1/2 year old pit bull, and came to us as an owner surrender. Sheebs (as we like to call her) is a shy, quiet gal who has really come out of her shell here at the shelter. Once she finds her human, she sticks to them like glue! She is still a little hesitant of new people, especially men, but she does eventually warm up. Sheba has been through a lot. In her time, she’s had (at least) 3 litters. We have one of her babies, Annie, who is still available for adoption. Miss Sheebs also can be territorial of her possessions, including her bed, toys, and food. She usually will take her food and hide it under her bed, unless there is someone in the kennel standing there with her. She needs to also go to a home with no cats or dogs. Sheba needs a furever home. Could that be you? Email peopleforpets.director@gmail.com to get an application to adopt!

Attention everyone! A handsome devil has just arrived! Say hello to Luke, a stunning canine who was once a city stray. We estimate him to be around 4 years old. When he first arrived at the shelter, he was a bit shy, but he has since come out of his shell tremendously! We have learned Luke will sit and shake. He is so well mannered and keeps a clean kennel. He loves his canine friends, but hasn’t yet been around cats. Luke is a sweet loving dog who is looking for his forever home. Adopt this dapper dude! Email peopleforpets.director@gmail.com to get an application.

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet our handsome man Peele! Peele and his brother were found as strays not long ago, we highly suspect that they were dumped based on other information we received about them and their situation. They came in in such poor condition that we knew we had to bring them in to the vet before their stray hold was up. They ended up having flea bite dermatitis and some pretty infected and irritated skin, not a horrible issue, but very uncomfortable. On top of that, the skin on the rest of their bodies was very inflamed and tender to the touch. These poor boys needed some TLC, but now they are happy and healing and ready to find their forever homes! Peele is good with other dogs and doesn't seem to mind cats. He is doing great with potty training and is also taking well to basic obedience! He is a great boy, don't let him pass you by! Peele is up to date on his vaccinations and is neutered. If you are interested in Peele, please submit an adoption application, which can be found on our website: humanesocietyofnwia.com.

Good with kids,
Story
Meet Rusty!! This 1 year old petite pitty mix came to us when she wandered into some kind folks barn. Nobody claimed her so now she is looking for her forever home through adoption! Rusty is a high energy gal and will require an active owner that will be willing to bring her on adventures and give her an outlet to run some energy off. Rusty has been kid tested and seems to really enjoy them! She is okay with confident cats. Rusty enjoys other dogs, but tends to be a bit pushy and tries to be “in charge” so a non reactive resident dog might be a good fit for Rusty. Along with a confident owner that has some experience with the bully breeds.    Rusty enjoys toys and playing tug of war, and is getting better with her crate training. Rusty is eager to please humans and we know she will be a fabulous companion for the right adopter, could it be you? Rusty is spayed, up to date on vaccines, dewormed, and microchipped! With an approved application her adoption fee is $275.00August 18, 2024, 9:00 pm

Story
Spunky Sam is about a year old and came to us after being bounced around from home to home. Due to no fault of his own, because quite frankly he is down right perfect!! He currently lives in a foster home with resident cats, dogs, and children. It will be a requirement that Sam finds a forever home with another friendly dog/s as he thrives with dog companionship and loves to have other dogs to play and nap with! He doesn’t seem to pay much attention to the cats in his foster home and is pretty respectful of their space. Sam does fabulously with all humans and even children! Sam would make a great family dog and adventure buddy. He loves going on car rides, very polite at taking treats, and doing well with basic training commands. This sweet and happy boy is so deserving and ready to experience the good life! Sam is potty trained and crate trained and ready for his forever family to find him! Could that be you!?    Sam is neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and dewormed. With an approved application his adoption fee is $275.00August 18, 2024, 9:00 pm
