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.

Marshall just turned 5 years old, and he’s excited about finding a forever home with humans who will give him loving attention and help him become his best self. He is smart, energetic and loving; eager to please; friendly with other dogs and OK with a calm cat. Marshall is comfortable in his crate and keeps it clean. He is working on house training but will need continued work on that. Marshall’s ideal home will have a fenced yard for burning off energy and a playful canine friend to keep him company if his people are gone for long hours. He is a tall miniature poodle and weighs approx. 18-20#. Marshall will be available for adoption after his vet appointment in mid-February; he will be neutered, up to date on vaccinations and heart worm testing at that time. All in all, Marshall is a delightful and beautiful boy with great potential! His adoption fee is $450. For details, contact his foster mom Michelle at m.vangeest@att.net or (616) 949-7813.

This beautiful boy is a 4-year-old King Charles Cavalier. He is a retired breeder; as usual, he will need some more socialization. He is low key in personality. He is starting to walk on a leash. He crates OK. His vetting will be completed on January 7 and he will become available after that. Though not required for placement, a fenced yard and canine companion would be bonuses! Contact Mary (574) 524-6040 if you have questions.

This little guy was found stray in the Elkhart area on “Turkey Day,” and an extensive search didn’t locate the owners. So he is getting neutered at the end of January and can be “fostered-to-adopt” in the meantime. He is estimated to be only a year old. Turk is friendly; good with other dogs; and described as low key. His adoption fee is $300. For more info, contact Mary at (574) 524-6040 or complete an adoption application online.

Little Tootz is a sweet Havanese, 4 years old and 11-12#. As is the case with most retired breeders, she will need patient socialization with humans, but she can be quite companionable as she gains trust. A quiet household with an existing, well-adjusted dog is needed. Tootz is good with other dogs; crates well; and is working on house training. A fenced yard is required in order to keep her safe. We prefer to set up any adoption as a Foster-to-Adopt arrangement due to her shyness with humans. Tootz is being fostered in Grand Rapids, Michigan. She is spayed, up to date on vaccines and heart worm negative. Her adoption fee is $450. Contact Michelle at (616) 949-7813 or m.vangeest@att.net.

Meet Tiffany, a purebred moyen poodle*. We think her black & white coat is quite unique. Tiffany is good with other dogs. She appears to be rather social for a retired breeder, but her adopter will need to continue socializing her in a patient manner. Though it’s not polite to ask a woman’s weight or age, Tiffany admitted that she weighs around 25# and is 4 years old. A fenced yard is recommended for her safety and exercise while she learns to walk on a leash. If you’re interested in adopting Tiffany, please submit an application. Adoption fee is $450. For more information, contact her foster mom Mary at (574) 524-6040; leave a brief voice or text message and she will return your call as soon as possible.
* Moyen refers to a size category that’s larger than a miniature but smaller than a standard poodle. More common in Europe.
** Tiffany is awaiting the vetting necessary for adoption (mid-December). In the meantime, we can set up a Foster-to-Adopt arrangement; in such case, the “adopter” needs to live within an hour of Elkhart, IN.

On a windy day, 5.5 lb. Jenny might just blow away! This happy little Pomeranian is approx. 5-6 years old, good with other dogs and friendly with people. “Personality plus!” Because Jenny really prefers to be with her people, she barks quite a lot when left alone. She is not yet housebroken, but she can walk on a leash and keeps her crate clean. Her double coat needs regular grooming. A fenced yard is preferred but not required. Jenny is spayed, microchipped, up to date on vaccines and had a dental cleaning. She is heart worm negative and on monthly preventative. Jenny’s adoption fee is $500. If interested in adopting Jenny, please complete an online application. For further information, contact Mary at (574) 524-6040.
