** PENDING ADOPTION **
Jail Dog Bluey Sex: Male Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler Mix Age: 9 months Weight: 36 pounds About Me: This adorable guy is Bluey. He was recently adopted but his adopter found that he was a little to "interested" in the cat in the home, (he needs a home without cats). Bluey came to us from a local shelter after being found as a stray. His left eye is scarred, and our veterinary staff believes he has limited sight in that eye. Someone needs to tell Bluey that… He is one smart cookie that doesn’t let that get in his way! He has picked up on his training very quickly and loves to learn new things. Bluey is very typical of a herding breed and needs plenty of exercise not only physically but mentally too. The American Kennel Club has this to say about this breed: The compact but muscular Australian Cattle Dog, also called Blue or Red Heeler or Queensland Heeler, is related to Australia's famous wild dog, the Dingo. These resilient herders are intelligent enough to routinely outsmart their owners. Standing between 17 to 20 inches at the shoulder, the Australian Cattle Dog is a sturdy, hard-muscled herder of strength and agility. The ACD is born with a white coat that turns either blue-gray or red. Both coat colors may feature distinctive mottling or speckling patterns. ACDs have immense work drive and excel at controlling and, of course, moving livestock. Their boundless energy and supple gait make them excellent running partners. ACDs are true-blue loyal, famously smart, tenacious, ever alert, and may be wary of strangers. If an ACD isn't challenged, it easily becomes bored and may get into mischief. It is recommended that ACD owners participate with these versatile dogs in some work, sport, or regular exercise to keep them mentally and physically fit.

Jail Dog Deya
Sex: Female Breed: American Staffordshire Terrier Age: 7 months Weight: 72 pounds About Me: Jail Pup Deya has been with us for a little while. When her handlers chose her name, they picked Deya which is “One who holds light”, and that name literally describes this wonderful young pup. She came to us after we found that her owner/breeder was going to take her to a shelter because she was born blind. At 8 weeks of age, she arrived in our program and has been a ball of energy and spunk. Since Deya was born blind, she finds the world primarily through her nose and ears. Her handlers are learning all kinds of new skills while training her and have become better handlers because of her. Deya has already picked up her basic obedience commands and knows to go potty when she is outside. Her handlers have taught her how to manipulate stepping up and to follow them through sound and scent, (this little roly poly girl has never met a treat she didn’t like!). Deya and her handlers continue to work with our trainers to help get her ready for a home of her own. We are still looking for a home for Deya. It will be as a foster to adopt home. This way we can make sure the new family gets the training we have already taught Deya and to let them see what a wonderful dog she is. Remember, Deya doesn’t know she is blind, just thinks the rest of the world is just like her since she was born this way. There is no need to feel sorry for her, she is always up for the task presented and she is resilient! Deya’s family needs to be one where someone works from home most days or won’t be left alone for long periods of time, (2-4 hours max) as she adapts to her new home. A fenced yard is a must because she loves to go outside and just sit, listen and smell with her nose up in the air or puppy wrestle with a well balanced dog her size and age, (5 years and younger). Once Deya has acclimated to a home you will forget she can’t see. At the detention center she gets around off leash because she has mapped it out. With the word “careful” she knows to slow down and listen or sense what is in front of her. Jail Pup Deya is waiting for an awesome family to make her their very own, could that be you? For more information about Deya and how you can adopt fill out an adoption application today. |

Jail Dog Joker
Sex: Male Breed: Husky/Shepherd mix Age: 2 years Weight: 63 pounds About Me: Meet Jail Dog Joker. He was adopted from our program as a 2-month-old puppy in March of 2021. He was an extremely intelligent puppy that was well on his way to a new beginning. Fast forward to a few weeks ago when Joker arrived back in our program. We were notified that he was found in a local shelter and his owners did not come and reclaim him after being contacted, (thank goodness for microchips). After 2 years he still is the wonderful, amazingly smart boy that left us as a puppy. He is house trained, knows his basic obedience commands and is just as eager to please as he was as a puppy. We have noticed he does have some separation anxiety when left alone in a crate, but his handlers have been working with him on that. He does fine in a crate if he knows you are there, but barks if he isn’t sure. His handler states he does well without being in a crate if exercised well before leaving him alone. Joker is a bouncing bundle of joy that needs a forever family that will give him as much love as he will return. Joker plays well with the other dogs in the program and would love an active family to be a part of. When Joker was adopted as a puppy he went to a home with children. We have not seen him with children since he has returned but believe he would do well with dog savvy children. We do know he isn’t a big fan of cats; he finds them a little to “interesting”. A family where someone works from home would be a good fit for Joker or someone that wouldn't leave him along for long periods of time. For more information on how you can adopt Jail Pup Joker, fill out an adoption application today. |

**PENDING ADOPTION**
Jail Dog Ragnar Sex: Male Breed: Shepherd/Husky mix Age: 3-4 months Weight: 20 pounds About Me: Although his name screams Viking Warrior, our Jail Pup Ragnar's only crime will be the theft of your heart. This adorable pup came to us at 10-weeks of age from a local shelter after being found as a stray, adopted, and then returned due to his puppy mouthiness. When Jail Pup Ragnar entered our program he was pretty guarded of his food and bowl. It is highly probable that he had to forage for his food while he was on his own as a stray or had to scrap with siblings to get a meager amount of food. His primary handler was determined to help Ragnar know that he would never have to be food deprived again. With every meal and treat the handler taught Ragnar to sit and wait and then rewarded him for good behavior. It wasn’t an easy task at first, but his devotion to his dog persevered. Ragnar has shown no guarding issues with anything other than his dog food. He is fine with treats and toys. You can take toys from him and he gladly shares them with other dogs. Ragnar is now a loving 3-4 month old puppy that is ready for the next step in his journey. He is one of the best trained puppies in the unit right now. He knows all of his basic obedience commands, is house and crate trained and knows some really cute tricks❤️. Now all our boy needs is you. Ragnar is smart, loves learning new things and will make a great companion to someone that is familiar with his possible breed mixes. As with all puppies, he will need to continue his training so he will be the best furry family member he can be. If you would like to adopt Jail Pup Ragnar please fill out an adoption application. |

Jail Dog Rocky
Sex: Male Breed: Looks like a Bully Breed Mix Age: 1 year Weight: 60 pounds About Me: This handsome guy is Jail Dog Rocky. He is a 1-2 year old, mix of everything wonderful, (check out his DNA test). For those of you that aren't familiar with Rocky's story, here is how he came to be a Jail Dog: We met Rocky after he was found tied to a door at a local church by a homeless person. This person had gone into the church that day and inquired about some of their services, but did not mention a dog. Later that evening that person left Rocky tied to the front door by a shoe string. When the staff arrived later that evening for church services they found Rocky wagging his tail waiting for someone to come and save the day. The staff at the church were able to check their security cameras to find that the person they had spoken with earlier that day had been the one that left Rocky tied to the door. The loving people at the church wanted to make sure Rocky got a second chance at a new beginning so they set off to set him up for success and reached out to our program for help. Rocky has been with us since November of last year and has come so far. When he arrived he had no idea how to socialize with other dogs, but has always loved any person who would pay him attention. Rocky is still that way with people, but still isn't a fan of other dogs. Rocky is a snuggle bug and loves to be a couch potato when permitted. He does have plenty of energy to keep an active person busy, but he also has the ability to chill with the best of them. We know that there is a home out there for this awesome boy, they just haven't found him yet. If you think he is the one for you please fill out an adoption application. |
