UPDATE: Rescued!

Alben is an 11 year old, 7 pound chihuahua. He is Hypothyroid. He is extremely fearful in the shelter environment, and we would like to place him in a foster based rescue. He is reported to get along with other dogs. He will be neutered and have his teeth cleaned prior to leaving HSU. If your rescue can take him, please email [email protected].

**UPDATE: Piper was picked up by a scent detection trainer & will be headed for her new job in California!**

Piper is a spayed, year and a half old Labrador looking for a foster or rescue. Piper came to us after her previous owners no longer had the time to care for her. We were quick to realize that Piper would benefit from having a very active home & having a job to do. Our kennel environment is no place for a high energy dog that loves adventure. Piper was soon after picked up to be trained for search & rescue. Although she had the drive, Piper could not pass the rubble test. Piper is now back with us, looking for some help. She loves to play & LOVES to retrieve from the water. She gets along well with other dogs but does not like to share her food. She may be too rambunctious for younger children.

Please e-mail [email protected] if your rescue can foster or pull her from our care.

Update: Milo has been transferred to Dane Haven!

Milo is a 2 year old neutered Great Dane in need of rescue placement. He is very friendly with people, has a history of successfully playing with other dogs at the dog park, but is reactive (pulls, barks) to other dogs on leash and behind barriers. He previously lived with a female Dane and was successful other than resource guarding from her.

Please email [email protected] if you can take Milo into your rescue.

Update: ADOPTED!

Tobe is a 5 year old male Spaniel mix who arrived at our shelter after spending his entire life in a backyard. He is extremely fearful of everything, and shut down at the shelter. We are searching for a patient adopter, foster or rescue to get Tobe out of the shelter and into a quiet home where he can decompress and build confidence. Email [email protected] if you can help.

**UPDATE: Coco has been picked up by Herding Haven. Thank you!**

Coco is a 4-month-old, male Border Collie mix. He's a little on the larger side weighing 46 lbs. He was surrendered due to a move & his owners couldn't take him. When arriving it was easy to see he is very under-socialized with both humans & other dogs. He is not acting aggressively, he is very shut down & terrified of noises in our shelter. Coco is in need of an experienced foster that can help catch him up to where he needs to be using positive reinforcement confidence building. We would like to get him out of our care as soon as possible. If your rescue is interested in helping us with Coco, please e-mail [email protected]

***UPDATE: Thank you Arctic Breeds Rescue! Jerome is now in a foster home! ***

Jerome is a 1 yr old neutered Siberian Husky. During his stay at our shelter, he has exhibited some very jumpy/mouthy behavior, some minor resource guarding & rude behavior with other dogs his size. He is 50 pounds and has no bite or fight history. We would really love for Jerome to spend some time in a foster home where he can get the one-on-one training he needs. That is why we are seeking Rescue while he remains up for adoption here at HSU. Due to his complexity of behavior issues we think he would do best with no young children or small animals. If you are interested in helping us with Jerome, please e-mail [email protected]

**UPDATE: Rescued by CAWS. Thank you so much!**

Wilson is an 11 year old purebred mini schnauzer with a grade 4 out of 6 heart murmur. Due to this condition he is not a candidate for neutering at the shelter. He needs to be pulled from HSU by a licensed rescue that can send him to a private vet that can perform his neuter under highly monitored conditions.

Wilson is a bit shy with new people, but he is house trained, good with other dogs and lived with a 10 year old child in his previous home.

If your rescue can take Wilson, please email [email protected].

**Update: Adopted!**

We're looking for a rescue to take on this little 3 month old puppy. Bubby is a sweetheart but needs to learn some manners. He has shown some resource guarding here in the shelter regarding his food and toys and can also be very mouthy and doesn't know when to stop. Anything he can get his mouth on is fair game, including your pant legs and hands. As a result he has no bite inhibition and nipped a staff member on the finger, drawing blood. He's serving bite watch currently which finishes on 11/11 and we're hoping we can find a rescue that has an available foster to take him on at that time. He would do best in a home with no young children. Bubby is neutered and has had his first set of vaccinations. He has shown some signs of kennel cough and is currently on medicine for that. If you have space with your rescue and are interested in him, please email us at [email protected] and we'll get back to you as soon as we can.
