Featured Dog

Cash

Good news!  Cash now has a foster family!  However, he is *still* up for adoption.  If you would like to meet him, please call the shelter at 605-226-1200 and make arrangements to meet him.  Thanks!  Please see his info below:

Cash is a 2-year-old neutered male black lab mix. He is a fabulous dog.  He likes kids of all ages but he does get excited and jumps up.  He loves to play with other dogs and likes cats.  He is so loyal to you and stays by your side at all times.  He loves to go for vehicle rides and he lays so nicely!  He is pretty well housetrained as long as you give him a consistent routine.  He is not fond of being kenneled (although he will do so, if needed) so maybe a gated off room when no one is home would be best for him.  He is underweight but his foster family will do their best to fatten him up!

Chloe

4 year old Jack Russel Terrier.  She was brought here because her owner was moving.  She is very sweet and a litte timid.  She does well with house training as long as she stays on a schedule.  She seems to come alive when she is with children.  She has never been around cats previously but we tried her with a cat and she did wonderful.  Chloe would like a large yard where she can run and play all day long!  What a cutie pie!

 

Missy

10 year old mix. She looks like she might be a cockapoo (cocker/poodle).  Her owner passed away and that is why she is here.  She is such a doll.  Very quiet and likes to be an inside/outside dog.  She lived on a farm for many years so she always had freedom but has recently been an inside dog and she likes the attention!  She lived with cats and does fine.  She seems to get along with other dogs as well.  She is house trained.

Ralph

2-3 years old terrier mix.  He is a ball of energy.  Ralph would do best with older children due to his excitability.  He could do alright with dogs as long as there is a proper introduction.  He  doesn't seem to be fond of cats.  He loves to go for rides and to go swimming in his pool.  He loves his chew toys and playing ball.  Quite the little guy!  He is houstrained as long as there is a routine for him to follow. 

Connor

Young (2-3 year old) male black lab or lab mix.  He is as sweet as can be.  He is friendly with other dogs and cats.  He seems to really like kids too!

Adopted!

Benny

One year old mix--probably a German Shepherd mix.  He likes to play with other dogs and likes to hang out with cats too!  He LOVES attention and has total puppy enthusiasm!  He is workig on his house training.  He is a smart dog and will learn quickly with a good routine. He does a good job of riding in a vehicle.  Don't miss out in this hamdsome fella!

Oreo

3 year old neutered male corgi/lab mix.  Very friendly boy.  Seems to get along fine with other dogs.  Does ok with older children.  He's a high energy boy with lots of love and affection to share!

Rusty

16 years old male Pekingese.  He is a very happy energetic 16 year old.  He is friendly towards other dogs.  We're not sure about cats yet. His owner is elderly and having medical issues and can no longer take care of him.  He is fairly quiet and pretty happy and excited to see people.  Look at that adorable face! .

 

Bo & Rip

6 month old male mix puppies. They appear to be a border collie mix.  The are full-bore puppy--goofy, sweet and loving.  These little cuties are going to be wonderful, fun, smart dogs!  Stop by soon to meet them and see if they are right for you!

 

Bear

One year old heeler.  He likes to be around other dogs and he lived with Benny (tan and black mix at bottom of page).  He likes cats and likes to play outside.  He lived on a farm so always had his free roam to do whatever.  He is pretty friendly but a bit timid right now due to new environment.  He loves to give you hugs and kisses though.

Macey Marie

5 year old spayed female German Shorthair Pointer. She is house trained and is an excellent hunter.  She would do best in a home with older children only and no other pets.  She gets a little jealous of other dogs and she doesn't like them.  She likes to sleep in bed with you at night, but I'm sure she could settle for her own bed!  She is protective and loyal to her owners.  She likes cats and is kennel trained.  What a beauty she is!

 

Ozzy

8 year old lab mix.  He loves to go pheasant hunting whenever he can.  He is pretty well behaved and listens very well.  He always lived in a garage but never messed in there.  He really likes having his freedom to run and play and enjoys vehicle rides.  He is also crate trained.  He loves to have his ears scratched and to be loved on all day!

Zena

One year old spayed female coonhound. She is very timid.   She does ok with other dogs.  She has never been around cats. She she seems to do fine with kids. She does not do well on car rides.  This sweet little girl needs someone special to give her the TLC to bring her out of her shell and help her to be the happy-go-lucky puppy that  we all know she can be!

Gunther

1 year old corgi mix.  He is as sweet as they come.  He loves to go on walks and play with other dogs and older children.  He does very well going for car rides.  He is house trained and awaiting his home!  How do you resist that face?!

Max

1 1/2 year old yellow lab.  He is spunky and he knows it!  He loves attention.  His previous owner just didn't have time for him due to a job change.  Max does know how to hunt and you should hear his nose go on the ground!  He is just a loveable guy and likes most other dogs but likes to chase the kitties!  He would make a great companion for a family with children that are a bit older just due to his size and his excitability.  He has always lived on a farm so may need a little help with his house training.

Autumn

1 year old spayed female border collie mix.  Autumn is a darling dog.  She's very excitable when in her kennel here, but once she's out, she's very sweet and calm. She likes other dogs, and would probably be good with kids.  We're not sure about cats, but you could give it a try.  Very sweet girl.

 

Rowdy

Rowdy is a 6 year old red lab.  He was only used as a hunting dog and was treated as a hunting dog, not a pet.  He is not fully housetrained but he does fairly well with a consistent routine.  He does have a lot of energy for his age and wants to play alot.  He does not like cats but lived with 2 other dogs.  He does pretty well with children.  He would enjoy a farm house or a place with alot of energy.  He enjoys hunting and would like if someone would continue to take him.

 

Reba (Skidboot)

Reba is a one year old heeler.  She has always lived on a farm and has already started rounding up cattle.  She has the potential to be a good cattle dog.  She does not chase cars but she likes to follow you if you are in a tractor.  She would do fine with other dogs but not sure on cats.  She does well with children.  If a farmer is looking for that perfect companion, Reba is your dog!

 

Champ

6 yr old yellow lab. He was kept as an outside dog. He likes to run, loves car rides/pickup rides. He knows basic obedience. He's good with other dogs (never been around cats) and he would do best in a home with no kids or older kids.

 

Sandy

Here is Sandy the wonder woman!!  She is a 10 month old yellow lab.  She was always an outside farm dog and has a lot of puppy energy so she will need either a farm or a very active family with a large area to run.  She is not house trained yet but a consistent routine will take care of that.  The owner didn't have other pets but we have her playing with Mr. Harley here and she does very well with him.  She likes to share her treats and food with him!  She is just so darn energetic and wants to play all the time!
