💜 Meet Roxanne 💜

This gorgeous 5-year-old, 90-pound Rottweiler has been slowly discovering that people can be kind and trusted. Shelter life has been overwhelming, but every day she grows a little braver, a little more trusting, and a little more confident.

During her evaluation, Roxanne started off quietly observing everything around her. With patience and gentle encouragement, she chose to stay close. Before long, she was lying beside her evaluator, enjoying head scratches, ear rubs, and simply soaking up the calm company. Those are the moments that show who Roxanne really is.

She’s a soft soul who doesn’t need the spotlight. She enjoys peaceful walks, likes to explore her surroundings, and finds comfort in calm, patient people who let her move at her own pace.

Roxanne walks beautifully on leash, was comfortable around an 11-year-old child, and is in great physical condition. She’s heartworm negative, healthy, and ready for a fresh start!

Roxanne mostly keeps to herself at the shelter and doesn’t react to other dogs. She has not been cat tested.

Imagine being the person she chooses to trust. The one who gets to see her first happy tail wag when you walk through the door and the quiet moments when she finally realizes she’s safe.

Roxanne is currently in Iowa and needs a foster or foster-to-adopt home so she can decompress outside the shelter. Sometimes all a dog needs is a chance, and we truly believe Roxanne will blossom once she’s in a calm, loving environment.

MARR covers Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Wisconsin, and transportation can be arranged within our coverage area.

Sometimes the quietest dogs have the biggest hearts. We think Roxanne is one of them 🤎

Everyone, Meet Giana. 🐾

‼️🚨GIANA NEEDS A FOSTER HOME IMMEDIATELY 🚨‼️

Located: Indianapolis, Indiana 📍

5 year old female 🤩

Giana is an owner surrender, due to no fault of her own. ☹️ Now she is desperately searching for a foster home on a tight timeline. The owner is planning to have her put down if we are unable to secure a place for her, so we are BEGGING (on her behalf) that someone steps up to foster her. Please DO NOT WAIT. We can not bring her into the rescue without a foster home willing to take her, and we want to do everything we can to help this sweet girl!😢

Giana is a very fun happy girl. She loves playing on a splash pad or with the hose. Stands beautifully for baths and will lay down to have
her nails done. She has a sweet temperament and will try to convince you that she is a lap dog. She takes guarding home and yard seriously and will alert bark but will stop quickly once asked to. She walks nicely on leash and knows the basics cues. She has a sweet personality and is extremely affectionate and loving. 💓

🚨 FOSTER NEEDED FOR RALPH! 🚨

Meet Ralph, a happy, sweet 4-year-old Rottweiler who is looking for a foster home! ❤️

Ralph is friendly, gentle, playful, people-centered, well-mannered, and eager to please. He immediately sought affection from shelter staff and did well meeting his evaluator.

Ralph recently had entropion surgery on both eyes, so he’ll need a little patience while he recovers. His evaluation was limited because he was focused on his recovery cone, but everyone who met him saw a sweet, happy-go-lucky boy who just needs someone willing to let him go at his own pace.

🎵 Alexa, play “You’ve Got a Friend in Me.” 🎵

📣 Finn Update! We received some great new information about Finn! Finn has successfully lived with another dog in the past and is currently sharing his foster home with not one… not two… but SIX cats! 😹 That’s right- six! With slow, proper introductions, Finn can successfully live with other dogs and cats!

Meet Finnegan (Finn)! 🤎
❗️Finn needs a foster or adopter by Friday, August 7❗️

Finn is a 7 year old handsome, big guy who’s looking for a family to call his own. He loves spending time with his people, relaxing outside, and soaking up all the attention he can get.

Finnegan has been through more in the past year than most dogs ever should. After losing both of his owners just months apart, he went to live with their adult son, who then became very ill. During that time, Finn didn’t get the care he needed… and his health began to decline rapidly.

Finn has Masticatory Muscle Myositis (MMM). While MMM is not curable, his veterinary team is working to help manage his comfort. This condition likely causes discomfort and may be contributing to some of the behaviors he’s recently shown. He’ll need a family that’s committed to continuing his medical care and working closely with their veterinarian.

Because of the discomfort he’s been experiencing, Finn has recently shown signs that he’s uncomfortable with certain types of handling, especially around his face and head. We believe pain has played a significant role, and finding the right environment to continue his care is incredibly important.

If you’re looking for a loyal best friend who deserves a chance, Finn might just be your perfect match. ❤️

Meet Finnegan AKA Finn 🤎

⏰ Finn needs a foster or adopter by Friday, August 7❗️

📍Currently in Indiana.
MARR covers Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma and Wisconsin. Transportation is available for fosters within our coverage area.

Finn has come a long way since arriving in MARR’s care, and now he’s looking for the right person to help him take the next step.

After being rescued, Finn has been receiving treatment for heartworm disease while recovering in foster care. More recently, he was diagnosed with Masticatory Muscle Myositis (MMM)- a rare, immune-mediated disease that affects the chewing muscles and can be painful. While MMM is not curable, his veterinary team is working to help manage his comfort. This condition likely causes discomfort and may be contributing to some of the behaviors he’s recently shown. He’ll need a person or family that’s committed to continuing his medical care and working closely with their veterinarian.

Because of the discomfort he’s been experiencing, Finn has recently shown signs that he’s uncomfortable with certain types of handling, especially around his face and head. We believe pain has played a significant role, and finding the right environment to continue his care is incredibly important.

To help set Finn up for success, he is looking for a home where he can be the only dog. He also needs a home with no cats and no small children. He’ll do best with someone who understands large breeds, will respect his boundaries, and is committed to helping him continue healing.

Despite everything he’s been through, Finn deserves the chance to heal in a home where his medical needs can be managed with patience, consistency, and compassion. We’re hopeful that, with continued treatment and the right person by his side, Finn has a bright future ahead.

Piper needs a foster home 🥹💖

She is currently located in Junction City, KS. Transport is provided for Fosters within MARR’s coverage area(details in post). 📍

Piper is a happy, passive and gentle lap dog. She is calm, more on the serious side, reserved, well-mannered, not mouthy, loves to be loved on, very sweet, loyal, and very chill. She typically is not moved by people coming into the home. She does react to Cats, squirrels and rabbits while leashed on her walks. She will resource guard toys with some animals.
Piper will need someone to help her continue to lose weight. Piper is an old soul who wants to just hang out and not burn calories. She does not really play with toys and she is fine with other dogs, men, women and kids who are used to larger dogs. Her current foster has other dogs in the home and she is fine with everyone. She does let out the normal rumble every now and again but no activity behind it. She knows sit and lay down but that is probably the extent of her training. She’s a great older female rottie who just wants to find her person to spend the rest of her days with.🤗
