Story
Are you a one or two adult household looking for a companion to all out spoil who will repay with infinite cuddles? Berry (the Snuggler) is your man. Berry is a really sweet and good boy. He is young and active but is happy to chill and chew on a bone by your side. Berry loves being close to his people and wants to please so badly that our foster mom has taken advantage of this and taught him some basic tricks and commands. He is motivated by both food and attention. Berry had quite the unfair start to life and came from a hoarding situation where the children and 3 dogs were taken away. It is clear that though he may have been loved, being taught good doggy manners was not the top priority. Berry does really well with the foster’s current 2 dogs, BUT those dogs generally get along with all dogs so if you do have “dog selective” dogs Berry may not be the best fit (again, lacking some manners). Once Berry settles in to his home he will protect it and his humans so we recommend slow introductions to new people - a home without a lot of strangers coming in and out constantly may be best. Berry LOVES to cuddle and is the dog who wants to wrapped up in the blankets with you. He is not a fan of this cold and would probably love his very own doggy coat too. Berry is fully potty trained, knows sit, kennel, and various other basic commands! You: *opens car door* Berry: ...you son of my mother I'm in.

Meet Ryder, a wonderful puppy with lots of love to give! Ryder is the perfect combination of affectionate, loyal, playful, and smart, and he loves giving kisses. He may be a bit independent, as he is still young and just exploring the world around him, but he will always be there to snuggle up close to you. Ryder may be too young to fully know if he gets along with other dogs, but he is very people-oriented and loves making human friends - especially his future forever family! He would do best in a home where he can receive plenty of love, attention, and training as he grows. If you're looking for a puppy with lots of love and affection, Ryder is your boy!

Story
Carl is a neutered 4 year old male, a large dog at around 70 pounds. He's a tall boy, long legs! He is an American Staffordshire terrier mix. He is UTD on all shots, heartworm negative and current on heartworm and flea/tick preventative. Carl enjoys all the fun games a dog should enjoy, "find it," "hide a toy" or searching for treats hidden around the house that he likes to find. He knows several tricks like sit, down, and the place command and is successful when there are no distractions. His intelligence is through the roof so he learns very quickly. He likes food puzzles, and lick mats. We feel he will do best with kids 12 and over due to high anxiety and being fearful of littler children. He is very loving once he is comfortable around you and wants to sit on your lap. He loves to go on walks but is reactive on the leash, so he will need additional work in that area. He is an only dog that lived in a home with younger children and a cat and he gets along great with the cat. He has attended doggy daycare and they say he does better with smaller dogs, and has stayed with another pet sitter before and he did ok with the dogs that were with her. He has very high anxiety at the vet. (Us too, Carl, us too) So the previous owners were working on muzzle training (for the vet). He is housetrained and crate trained. This handsome boy is available now for adoption so if you are interested in adopting him, please fill out an adoption application. His adoption fee is $275 to offset all vetting costs.

Story
Shark is the happiest Little (sic) bully mix we've ever met. He was raised by Dachshunds, in wheel chairs, and loves is best pal, Cheddar, in one of the pics. He has since discovered other breeds, similar in size and temperament, who love to play as much as he does. His favorite game is "keep-away" or "tug-o-war" with ropes and toys. Never comes in clean, as he gets rolled a lot, on purpose. He just LOVES to wrestle, no matter rain or shine!

Story
Meet Cash, the 83-pound hunk of staffie mix – a living testament to the saying, "Big dogs, big hearts, bigger appetites." Cash is a master of basic commands, but occasionally practices selective hearing. The way to Cash’s attention is through his stomach - which makes the staff feel he is highly trainable. On walks, Cash is a sniffing Sherlock Holmes, investigating everything thoroughly, so it may be a zigzagging adventure until he has a chance for more training. And when it comes to wildlife, Cash's high prey drive transforms him into a canine Indiana Jones in Raiders of the Backyard Squirrel, so a good harness leash is recommended. Cash's quirks are balanced by moments of pure zen. Imagine quiet evenings with Cash, the cuddle aficionado, offering generous kisses and turning your downtime into the best part of the day.Stubborn at times, sure, but Cash's charm lies in his personality. He's not just a dog; he's a comedic companion, adding laughter and love to every day. Ready for a treat-filled, adventure-packed life? Adopt Cash – because life's better with an 83-pound bundle of joy.  For more information, visit https://townandcountryhumanesociety.org/ Thanks to our amazing Angel Sponsors, our long term pups now come with reduced adoption fees, alleviating financial road blocks for some, and making it even easier to open your heart and home to a furry friend. The adoption fee is $100 plus tax and covers age appropriate vaccines, a microchip, and a spay/neuter.  Applications are typically worked in time stamp order based on date/time of submission.  If you have other dogs in your home, they must all meet the potential adoptee.  It may save you a trip to bring them with you when you visit, if you are certain you want to adopt a new family member.   Please be sure to follow us on Facebook to learn more about Town and Country Humane Society and our mission. ##1344047##

Story
Sailor, an American Staffordshire Terrier, was taken in as a stray by a vet clinic in Holden, KS where she gave birth to eight beautiful puppies in September. It is estimated that she was born in April, 2022. Sailor is currently thriving in her foster home where she enjoys ice cubes, peanut butter, and playing with her human kiddos. When she hears "night night," she knows that it's bedtime, and this little smartie gets right in her kennel with a small treat.  She also knows "wait" and "gentle."  When playing fetch, she sits politely without being told.  When relaxing, Sailor enjoys watching the dog channels on YouTube.  We've learned that Sailor doesn't like loud noises, which seems to be her only negative trait. We predict that Sailor will be a valued addition to some lucky family. The suggested adoption fee for Sailor is $365.  Bullies-N-Beyond ResQ Inc. is a 501(c)3, non-profit corporation that is 100% volunteer operated. Adoption donation fees are the primary source of funding for the cost of veterinary care for our animals. All dogs adopted through BNBR will have been administered their age appropriate vaccines which may include DHPP, Rabies, Lepto and Bordetella. All dogs will also be adopted out as already altered if of age, for those not of age, a voucher will be provided. The adoptions for all of our animals will take place in the Omaha, NE area and must be done by the adoptive family in person. We do not ship or deliver. BNBR does not adopt on a first serve basis. All available dogs are adopted based on their needs to provide the best fit home. ##1838312##
