Woohoo! Let's hear it for our adoptions team who found great homes for all these incredible pets on Friday!!

Let's do it again today. Dogs 1 year and older have $25 adoption fees. We still have 104 dogs looking for homes, including all of the adorable faces pictured below! We open at 10 Saturday and Sunday.

We think (and hope) it'll be pretty busy, so get here early!

We've had a tough start to the year with significantly more dogs coming into the shelter as strays and surrenders than dogs finding homes, causing us to bump up against our max capacity only 10 days into the year. Let's change that momentum!

Starting right now, ALL dogs a year and up have $25 adoption fees to kick off 2025! We have terriers, great danes, pitties, labs, cattle dogs and more all waiting for awesome people to give them loving homes.

New year, new digs? Our dogs think that sounds great! Stop by NHS today to meet a shelter pet who will give you unconditional love. We open at noon on weekdays and 10 a.m. on weekends!

UPDATE: Clara has been adopted!! We’re so happy for her and her new family! We have lots of other wonderful dogs still waiting for their forever home - come say hello💜

New kid on the block! Clara just arrived from Erna R Badstieber Paws and Claws Adoption Center in Columbus, NE where she waited over six months without any luck finding a forever family.

This big girl has been described as "a perfect angel baby who deserves the world" but we think she'd settle for a home! She does well on walks and in the car, and she looooves belly rubs. Come meet this gentle giant today!

"Oh, is it cold outside?" -Mufasa, probably

Mufasa recently went on a field trip to Mulhalls and Standing Bear Lake with one of our volunteers, and if there happened to be a chill in the air, he certainly didn't notice! That thick, fluffy coat is making us a little jealous tbh.

Mufasa is a sweet older guy that is just as majestic as he is adorable. He's got a few extra pounds under all that fur, so he'll need a family that's able to help him lose a little weight. Luckily, he's great on leash and loves a nice leisurely stroll!

The dualities of Zeus...

· He isn’t a big licker, but he drools when presented with yummy snacks.
· He takes treats gently, but may demand more.
· He gets along with other dogs, but he can be pushy.
· He is mostly wonderful walking on a leash, but sometimes jumps and tugs when over-excited.
· He can be shy at first, but is a full-body leaner.
· He is calm in the car, but is an adolescent boy who get major zoomies.
· He isn’t a “needy” dog, but he does need someone to commit to loving and caring for him for the rest of his life.

Zeus is quiet, potty-trained, and has the perfect set of puppy dog eyes. His ideal human is someone gentle and steady who’s looking for a deeply devoted companion.

With just a little patience, Zeus will give you a lifetime of love.💜

Harvest is the KETV pet of the week! She's a big, playful girl that's just as sweet as she is gorgeous!

This good girl loves being outdoors and zooming around — be careful or she may plow right into you! While toys are her passion, she also loves chin scratches and giving kisses.

If you guessed Riley, you were right! Riley first came to NHS as a wee pup and was adopted quickly, but surrendered a little while later due to having lots of energy and needing more attention and exercise than they were prepared for. He has been in and out a few times for the same reason.

Riley will need a family that can give him plenty of mental and physical exercise and enrichment so he doesn't fall into naughty behaviors! The good thing is he's super smart and treat motivated, so as long as you're determined you're set!

Meet our longest term residents! These ten pups have been patiently waiting for their forever homes for far too long, and we're really hoping they find them soon.
