History: We recently welcomed a group of animals who needed help from various unfortunate situations in rural areas down south. Whether overcrowded shelters or unclaimed impounds, they have a second chance at finding their forever homes and hope to meet you soon!
A Note from the Foster: Hi, my name is Milkshake, and I recently arrived at rescue to start a fabulous new chapter in life. You see… I used to be a mama - my Milkshake brought all the dogs to the yard (if you know what I mean) - but I'm solo now, and it is MY time to shine!
I’m on the hunt for a forever home where I can thrive, so let me tell you a little about myself and see if we’re a perfect match
Even though I’ve only been in my foster home a short time, I fit right in. I’m a friendly, sweet, silly, certified lovebug. Personal space? Never heard of it. If you’re sitting down, I would like to be closer. Closer than that. Perfect.
I’m fully potty trained (zero accidents - because I’m a lady), and I’m quiet and calm in my kennel day or night. It’s my safe place, my cozy little retreat where I rest and recharge for all my important activities.
I immediately became besties with the resident dog. We love playing chase or hanging out and chewing on bones! I’m also a pretty good self-entertainer. I have a big basket of toys, and I love to toss them around or show them off...until they squeak. Then we need to have a serious conversation about why it made that noise… and I may retreat to my hiding place (don't tell anyone - it's under the bed) to reconsider my life choices.
I am new to life in a home, so I’m still working on the basics - leash walking, commands, manners, and bravely battling the household “monsters” (vacuum, hair dryer, blender… very suspicious creatures). But each day is easier, and snacks are my absolute favorite, so I learn quickly when treats are involved!
And to top it all off? I am the softest girl, with the prettiest light brown/hazel eyes and naturally fabulous white eyelashes. Yes, they’re real. Oh, and my ears - adorable when they stick up with all those gray/brown spots!!
So if you’re looking for a sweet, soft, slightly squeaker-suspicious girl who’s ready to leave her past behind and focus on butt scratches, backyard fun, learning new things, and being completely adored…I'm your girl!

Adoption Fee: $510 + tax
Adoption Status: Is this dog available? Submitting an application is the best first step to learning if a dog is still available. There is a chance this dog could have a pending adoption when your application is submitted, however our team will offer approved applicants to be put on a waiting list for that dog. Additionally, we can make recommendations on other dogs that may be a match. Pending adoptions do not mean the adoption is finalized. Why did we implement this change? We implemented this update because, unfortunately, dogs were pending for applicants for several weeks and then the applicant would change their mind. This happens more often with puppies, as applications are submitted impulsivly more often for them. Our process is great because it takes a little time, so impulsive decisions fade. However it was unfortunate for the dogs, and the foster homes, as then the process needed to be re-started. By securing a wait-list we are able to move forward more quickly if a pending adoption falls through. This is a new process for us, so your feedback along the way is helpful! Thank you for supporting rescue and adoption!
