This is a courtesy post for a senior dog who needs a forever home. Leroy is a 15# senior terrier mix, whose owner is no longer able to take care of him. He is neutered. Leroy is at Dogtown Resort in Middlebury, IN. If interested in adopting him, contact Caroline at Dogtown, (574) 849-0844.

Charlie is a 4 year old King Charles Cavalier; retired breeder. Charlie has been neutered and updated on any necessary vaccines and heart worm test. A fenced (physical fence) potty area is required since he is currently not used to a leash. Preference will be given to a home with an existing, well-adjusted dog for Charlie to follow around. He is friendly but quite shy — as is typical with retired breeders. He will need time and patience to gain trust in people, but consistent love will win him over. Charlie is pretty low-key, and might even sit on your lap.

If you are interested in Charlie, please complete an adoption application online. His adoption fee is $450. For details, call or text Mary at (574) 524-6040 and leave your name, phone number and brief message. She will respond at her earliest convenience.

Buddy is a 9-year-old Havanese who spent his life as a breeder without having the luxury of being someone’s special little dog! He came to our rescue in fall of 2024, scared of humans, withdrawn, and not showing interest in life. Most of his time was spent in his crate, where he simply quivered. It took many months for him to realize he was safe; it was heart-warming to see him lie peacefully in his open crate like he had not a care in the world! Though making progress, Buddy is still quite shy with humans, and his adopter will need to be gentle and patient with him to continue his progress. He is quiet, gentle and compliant (particularly with grooming). He gets along well with other dogs and would benefit from a canine friend to show him the ropes. A fenced potty area is required until Buddy gets comfortable on a leash or tie-out. Buddy is current on vaccinations, heart worm negative and had a dental cleaning in August of 2024. He weighs about 13#. His adoption fee is $150. For more information, contact his foster mom Michelle at (616) 949-7813 or m.vangeest@att.net. Buddy is being fostered in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

Sammy is a small Maltese, about 8.5#. Retired breeder. Age 4 years. Very social and active, smart and gentle; loves to chase toys. Crate trained.

Heartworm tested; neutered, microchipped; and up-to-date on shots. Contact his foster mom Michelle for details at (616) 949-7813 or m.vangeest@att.net. He is currently being fostered in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Adoption fee $500.

Miss Coco is a 5-year-old retired breeder; liver and tan miniature Schnauzer female. She is fully vetted, crate trained and doing well with house breaking on a schedule. She is good with other dogs.

Holly is a 7-year-old retired breeder. She is somewhat timid with humans as a result and will need to be given time to adjust to household life. Patient consistency usually breaks through the timidity. Holly is exhibiting a perky personality. Quite cute! She is about 10#; had a recent dental and spay and is up to date on most of her vet care. She is good with other dogs. She is working on house training. Prefer a fenced yard or area for going potty. She is used to an inside/outside door. Holly’s adoption fee is $300. If interested, contact Mary at (574) 524-6040. LEAVE A VOICE MESSAGE, INCLUDING YOUR NAME AND NUMBER, and she will respond as soon as possible.

Little Cooper is 5 months old and available for Foster-to-Adopt to a local home ONLY (Elkhart area) while he is awaiting his vet appointment. He is a sweet, gentle boy—yet energetic. Cooper entertains himself with toys; he loves to play with other dogs at his foster home (having apparently no sense of their personal space preferences) and would really benefit from a canine friend. He would also benefit from puppy training classes to help him learn to follow directions. A fenced yard is preferred so he can safely run and burn off energy. Cooper is crate trained and doing well on housebreaking with a schedule. Cooper is probably fine with children who are respectful with him. Adoption fee: $450. For details, contact Mary at (574) 524-6040. LEAVE A VOICE MESSAGE, INCLUDING YOUR NAME AND NUMBER, and she will respond as soon as possible.
