"ROCCO" handsome Catahoula mix "PROJECT POOCH"

  "Project POOCH, quite simply, changes lives. We operate a kennel inside a youth correctional facility and pair currently incarcerated youth with shelter dogs. The youth learn kennel management, positive reinforcement, grooming, and training techniques. The youth learn what it means to be depended on by another living creature and what it means to be trusted and relied upon. And, they learn what unconditional love feels like—sometimes for the first time. Our dogs get trained, loved, and adopted into their forever homes. There is no limit to the amount of time a dog spends in our care, and we are focused on the individual needs of each dog."

"ROCCO" is AVAILABLE FOR Adoption at "PROJECT POOCH"

"ROCCO"

listed as "Catahoula mix?"neutered male, approx 3 yrs, 70 lbs(still filling out)

My name is Rocco, or Roccito Burrito, or Rocco Paco—we do a lot of nicknames around here!—and my POOCH team think I’m one of the best boys that ever was! I was a favorite at the Marion County Shelter and was there for a few months, but no one was interested in me. So I got to come to POOCH and learn lots of things and make new friends. Now it’s time for me to find my forever family. Is it yours? 

 Special Considerations: Is curious about countertops; adopter will need to work on potential for counter-grazin Needs: Someone who loves sweet goofy big boys!

"HONEY" is AVAILABLE FOR Adoption at "PROJECT POOCH"

"HONEY" 

(soon to be spayed) female, 1.5 yr, 11 lbs

Special Considerations: Small and can be a bit of a door dasher. Needs: Someone who is willing to go slowly with her so she can warm up and not feel nervous; this doesn’t take long

WHAT MY YOUTH HANDLERS SAY ABOUT ME

  • I love to be held like a baby, and will happily drift off to sleep in your arms

  • I like to do a little bear dance when I greet my people

  • I sound like a chicken or a velociraptor or sometimes like a dolphin






     

"SHELBY" Voted "MOST UNIQUE LOOKING" MEd SZ "NEW LIFE ASHER HOUSE" (formerly Family Dogs New Life Shelter)

 AVAILABLE for ADOPTION at NEW LIFE ASHER HOUSE!  (formerly Family Dogs New Life Shelter)
 

SHELBY adoptables

Shelby listed as Shar Pei/Shiba Inu (spayed) female, 1 yr 46 lbs (still growing)

Kids 5+,  Dogs - yes,  Cats -no

I’m like a caffeine shot in dog form—nonstop energy, slightly chaotic, and definitely knocking over things just because I can. Balls, sticks, socks—if it moves, I’m chasing it. I’d be perfect for kids over 5! I’ll entertain them with my professional zoomie moves and my “Whoops, did I just knock that over?” face. 
I’m still learning, so I need a human who’s ready to reward me with treats (because I’m very treat-motivated). Training me with positive reinforcement is like opening a door to a world of tail wags and happy dances. I haven’t met any cats yet, so let’s skip them for now. Dogs? I haven’t spent a lot of time playing with just yet but I can totally be your BFF once we do the slow, proper intro thing—no need to rush into this.
If you’re ready for a playful, slightly mischievous, treat-loving adventure buddy, I’m your girl!

My adoption fee is $300 and includes spay, microchip & registration, leash/collar, food sample, toy & treat packet.

 




"RARO" loving RETIREMENT home Please- ROTTIE MIX "NEW LIFE ASHER HOUSE" (formerly Family Dogs New Life Shelter)


 AVAILABLE for ADOPTION at NEW LIFE ASHER HOUSE!  (formerly Family Dogs New Life Shelter)

RARO adoptables

RARO, listed as Rottweiler mix (neutered) male, 12 yrs, 71 lbs

Kids 10+,  Dogs - yes,  Cats no

Looking for a sweet ol’ man to hang out with? A laid-back fella to accompany you on evening strolls and sunny afternoons in the garden? Well, I might just strike your fancy. Name’s Raro and I am a 12-year-old Rottie mix patiently waiting for my day to come…the day I find my forever home. I’m a real good boy, house trained and I have some basic training too. I like to take things slow and easy but I truly am a lovable fella and I just adore attention, especially a good neck rub or booty scratch! Us older folks need a little massage now and then…it’s just part of getting older, right? The sore muscles, a little dental decay here, a cataract there, the occasional trip to the family doc. Thankfully I just had a dental cleaning done, so I don’t have to go to the doc anytime soon! Ya, I know how it goes, and I’m sure you understand too. I am hoping that this new forever home of mine will come soon—equipped with a soft dog bed, plenty of TLC, and a daily dog biscuit. Older folks will suit me well, I am just not looking for the energy young children provide so a home with kids 10+ will do, but I do just fine with other dogs who respect a grumpy old man… So hey, maybe tomorrow will be my day?

My adoption fee is $160 and includes neuter, microchip & registration, leash/collar, food sample, toy & treat packet.

JUNIPER

Animal # 165331, (spayed female), 7 yrs 5.4 lb, adoption fee $200

listed as Pomeranian/chihuahua, long coat.

 Here's what you need to know about me:

I'd like a relaxed home. I've just been around for a while. And that's made me appreciate the finer things in life like naps in the sun, looking out windows, and the special joy when you're able to scratch juuuuust the right spot. I like to take it easy at home - I'm not up for lots of activity.

It's recommended I meet any dogs or kids living in my new home before I'm adopted. I just want to make sure we all get along.

recommended no cats 

Colin is a longer-term resident, patiently waiting to find his forever family. 🏡 This sweet and sensitive pitbull mix takes a little time to warm up to new people and places, but once he does, he's a devoted friend. He's a quick learner and eager to please, making him a great candidate for positive reinforcement training. Colin thrives in a calm and predictable home with a consistent routine. As quite the active boy, he loves enrichment activities like snuffle mats and puzzle toys, so be prepared to keep his mind and body busy! He's a bit wary of new people and situations, so a patient and understanding family is key. He may do best in a household with older children or adults who can respect his boundaries and understand his energy level. Important Note: Colin needs a home with no cats or small animals. He has so much love to give, and promises to be your most loyal companion once he feels safe and secure.
