ADOPTABLE πŸ• ALERT!

Re-Introducing Ridge!

Ridge was returned over the summer after living at home for a year, and kennel life is bumming him out πŸ˜” This sweet boy is looking for a home where he can snuggle up to his humans 24/7; it's his favorite place to be!

Ridge is about 2.5 years old and weighs just under 65lbs. He absolutely loves to play, and once he's tuckered out will sit in your lap and take ALL the pets πŸ₯° Ridge has lived with adults and children of all ages and loves everyone! He would be happiest in a home where someone is with him most of the day, as he has displayed some separation anxiety.

🐾 We don't have any history of Ridge living with other pets; always remember to practice slow introductions to any resident animals!

❗️In an effort to find Ridge a home ASAP, we are offering Foster to Adopt placement for Ridge. Help us find this sweet guy a home and SHARE this post!

If you are interested in meeting Ridge, stop by the Shelter; we are open for walk-ins 7 days a week! Please contact the Adoptions department at 219-922-3811 ext. 203 with any questions.

ADOPTABLE 🐈 ALERT

PRIMROSE 🌸 likes playing peekaboo as she gets to know you. If you give her time to sniff your hand she will headbutt you for pets. Then her motor turns on and the purrrs begin! PRIMROSE 🌸 wiggles around and even lets you pet her belly.... all while staying in her safe place. PRIMROSE 🌸 is looking for a quiet home with an adopter who understands her shy nature. This gentle girl is 10 months old and weighs about 8 pounds. PRIMROSE 🌸 is wondering when someone will take her home 🏑 so she doesn't have to listen to all the dogs barking.

If you are interested in meeting PRIMROSE, stop by the Shelter; we are open for walk-ins 7 days a week! Please contact the Adoptions department at 219-922-3811 ext. 203 with any questions.

ADOPTABLE 😻 ALERT!

Meet Tetra!

Tetra is almost 5 months old and has spent almost his entire life living in a kennel 😞 Originally picked up with his 3 sisters, each of them have found homes and Tetra is still waiting!

Tetra can by shy, but is eager to investigate his surroundings. We let him out for a stroll this afternoon and he was timid at first, but immediately made a friend with his neighbor 😻 Tetra has been neutered, microchipped, and has updated vaccines; all he's missing is a loving family!

If you are interested in meeting Tetra, stop by the Shelter; we are open for walk-ins 7 days a week! Please contact the Adoptions department at 219-922-3811 ext. 203 with any questions.

ADOPTABLE SENIOR πŸ• ALERT!

Sweet Hudson is no stranger to Humane Indiana, having been in and out of our care multiple times since 2017. We are very hopeful that Hudson's next home will be his final home, and he is looking for a very special one 🏑

Hudson is 9.5 years old and recent ultrasounds show that he has a splenic mass. Hudson's condition has not affected his quality of life so far, but could take a turn for the worse at any time. The Shelter is no place for a senior dog to spend his final days, and we are looking for an adopter who will give him the loving home he deserves.

Hudson is the epitome of cuddle bug, and wants nothing more than to lounge on the couch with you πŸ₯° Despite being 60 pounds, he is a total lap dog and loves ear scratchies! Hudson is housebroken, not destructive, and loves everyone he meets.

🐾 Hudson has lived with a cat and dog in his previous homes and done well. Always remember to practice slow introductions to any resident pets!

❗️Please share this post to help us find Hudson a home where he can spend his golden years doing what he loves most; napping on the couch surrounded by people who just want to love him πŸ’›

If you are interested in meeting Hudson, stop by the Shelter; we are open for walk-ins 7 days a week! Please contact the Adoptions department at 219-922-3811 ext. 203 with any questions.

ADOPTABLE CAT 🐈 ALERT!

DARLA is a darla-ing 🐈! A neighbor witnessed her owners putting her out when she was pregnant.

DARLA is about 1 year old, petite and a bit skinny from nursing her babies. She greets you quietly when go in to visit her. She doesn't mind being picked up and likes attention. DARLA needs a living forever home 🏑....it could be yours!

If you are interested in meeting DARLA, stop by the Shelter; we are open for walk-ins 7 days a week! Please contact the Adoptions department at 219-922-3811 ext. 203 with any questions.

ADOPTABLE πŸ• ALERT!

Meet Noe!

Originally transferred to our Shelter in August, this sweet pup has been waiting over a month to find the pawfect home 🏑 He recently went out on a Foster Slumber Pawty, and we got some wonderful notes about his stay!

At just 4 months old, Noe has plenty of puppy energy and is a total wiggle worm. He loves Kongs, snuffle mats, and of course pup cups and pupsicles! According to his Foster, Noe is crate-trained, walks well with a harness, and worked very hard to alert his humans when he needed to go out for a potty break. Using the FREE week of training via GoodPup, we're sure that Noe will master his manners in no time!

🐾 Due to his age and play style, Noe is seeking a home with another confident dog who can help show him the ropes! As always, remember that slow introductions to resident pets are a must.

So what do you think? Are you ready to say YES to Noe?

If you are interested in meeting Noe, stop by the Shelter; we are open for walk-ins 7 days a week! Please contact the Adoptions department at 219-922-3811 ext. 203 with any questions.

ADOPTABLE πŸ• ALERT!

Meet Barkus!

This handsome lad came to us early last month as a transfer from one of our Animal Control partners where he was picked up as a stray. He has not been claimed and is looking to find a new furever family!

Barkus is about 3 years old and weighs just under 65 pounds. Unfortunately his kennel presence is very stressed out, so he often gets overlooked as Adopters walk through πŸ˜” Once he gets in a room with Staff or Volunteers, Barkus loves to play with toys and lounge on the couch. When out on a walk, he loves to investigate his surroundings and sniff every square inch of the ground πŸ‘ƒ

So far we know that Barkus knows "Sit," but is very food motivated and will surely be excited to learn more manners. With your free week of training through GoodPup, we are sure Barkus will settle in to his new home in no time!

🐾 Barkus seems interested in other dogs here at the Shelter, but we have no home history of him living with other pets. Always remember slow introductions are a must with any resident pets!

If you are interested in meeting Barkus, stop by the Shelter; we are open for walk-ins 7 days a week! Please contact the Adoptions department at 219-922-3811 ext. 203 with any questions.

Late Night with JIMMY KIBBLE is now playing here at the Shelter! This 1 and a half year old boy has seen some hard times, but that doesn't seem to bother JIMMY KIBBLE at all.

All dog adoptions include one free week of virtual training with GoodPup app πŸ•
