This is China. We are GUESSING she may be a Miniature Schnauzer mix - but not positive on that. She was out wandering on her own for over a month and finally was able to be live trapped. She is very terrified of humans. According to the vet she is a year old or less so we anticipate that with time, love and patience she will come around. She is starting to get curious about all the humans here at the shelter and she is starting to play some when she goes outside. We have had her spayed, had all of her shots brought current and she has put on some weight. We have not yet gotten her groomed up because she is so terrified still. We would not recommend her in a home with small children - with as scared as she is we do not think it would be good for her. She seems to really like men. When we find the right home for her the adoption fee will be $250.00. That includes her spay, all of her shots being current, heartworm negative, wormed and micro-chipped. Our adoption application is on our website at www.patriotsforpets.com and we highly recommend you complete that before visiting in case you fall in love with a dog looking for a new home.

This sweet girl is Madeline Maddy for short. Maddy is a 4 month old Rat Terrior/ Jack Russel mix and came to Patriots through transport from Texas. She came in 100 percent terrified. So much so I brought her home to foster. Her Texas foster mom wrote that she is scared hides under a blanket and does not like to go outside so she was using a potty pad. And she preferred to stay in her kennel. When she came here all seemed to be true. For an hour anyways. I had her kennel in the dog bedroom but she cried and would not come out. So I moved it to the living room. Within minutes she was pawing at my leg and jumped right up into my lap and snuggled in. I did take her outside on a leash and she screamed at the top of her lungs in terror. So inside she went. About an hour later mine all went outside totally surprised in the middle of the pack there she was outside and loving it. She is now the first one out every time and loves to play. After about 3 hours into being here the kennel was history. If she got scared from a noise she will look at me and the kennel and go back to doing what she was doing. As for hiding under the blanket she only did at bedtime tucked in for the night. If she gets outside many times she will not have a potty accident in the house. She was very dependent on her sister for moral support but has quickly gain confidence and is already doing actives on her own. Maddy will need work with leash training as she seems to be terrified of it. She loves to play toys and loves to run outside so a fenced in yard would be perfect for her. She is a puppy and has all the puppy energy so lots of exercise will be needed. She is a cuddle bug and loves to sit on your lap. Maddy will need some time and patience But will come around quickly in the right environment. As you can see in her picture she has replaced the kennel for the back of the couch. If interested in this baby, please go to our website at www.patriotsforpets.com and complete an adoption application. Her adoption fee is $250.00 that includes her spay, current shots, worming, current preventatives such as heartguard and flea/tick and she is micro-chipped.

This young guy is Brute - and he fits his name - he is a stout and strong baby. He is about five months old and we believe he may have some Great Dane in him - but believe us - that is just a guess - beyond that we have no idea what the one or many breeds may be. His face looks like he may have some Bully breed but his body and his ears (which he refuses to let you see for a picture) don't look like it. He LOVES people - play, play and play some more. He could keep a housefull of kids on their toes and active with his energy level. A big family would be great for this boy. He is neutered, current on his shots, has been wormed and micro-chipped. His adoption fee is $250.00. If interested him, or any pet from PFP, please go to our website at www.patriotsforpets.com and complete an adoption application and then come visit during our open hours.

Rosie is probably a Catahoula mix. She is abouta year old. She was adopted from us as a tiny baby and was returned. Here is what the people who had her have to say about her: Housebroken (used to a fenced in back yard); Crate trained although won't always go in willingly (if you throw a treat she will). Knows sit, lay down, shake (will shake with either paw if you say "other one"). Takes treats very nicely usually and trained not to take it until you say "ok". Doesn't woof down her food, kind of a grazer. Likes to play with toys very much and loves chewies/deer anglers/nylabones, etc. Gives very nice kisses but not a cuddler. Good in the car. Good at the vet's office. Here was the reasons she was returned: She is very high energy. She is a digger. We have discovered since coming back into us that she needs to be the only dog in the house. She is available for adoption here at Patriots.

You may remember this guy - it is Manny. He was out to foster for about three months last year and then found what we believed to be a home that would give him the time and space he needed to come the rest of the way out of his shell. He was doing well with the stability of his foster home and a regular routine. Unfortunately he got adopted in November and rather than wait for him to adjust (which everyone knew would not be quick) they decided to drug him starting the first of December. The drugging did nothing but amplify him being afraid of everything and then he went back to having accidents inside when he was drugged. He got more fearful of things and appeared to be drugged enough to more or less be in a zombie state. His condition when he came back in was very upsetting for everyone. We immediately consulted with the vet and got him off the drugs. It took a little while for him to get past the shakes, inability to control his bodily functions, to stand without wobbling and then through all of the mess of everything making him sick at his stomach as he was working the drugs out of his system. He has lost quite a bit of weight but we are giving him plenty to eat to make up for it. He is now doing better and we believe he is very thankful to be back at the shelter. He is still very afraid of strangers - men more so than women - he loves to go on walks as long as you work him through the stages of everything being strange - once he learns the route he does great. He gets along great with other dogs. Not sure on cats but probably not a good idea. He is NOT aggressive. He needs to live in a structured environment where he can learn what to expect. We do not believe he could adjust to a home with young kids where there is a lot of commotion. He is a big boy and is probably a Lab/Great Dane mix. He is 2 1/2 years old.

This is Marley. His reasoning for three returns after his adoption are always the same "he is an escape artist". He is almost 4 years old but still has a ton of energy in typical Boxer fashion. He does fine with other dogs - can not do cats and is fine with kids. Unfortunately this last return is a little different - when he escaped a neighbor tried to grab him and he nipped them. He obviously needs a fenced in yard BUT that doesn't seem to be enough - he needs to find someone who is VERY conscious about opening the door to where he can get into an area with no containment. He isn't a bad dog - just lots of energy and LOVES to run. Little kids in the house won't work with him because of the running out the door when it gets opened. He can not live in Osage, Iowa because of his "bite history". We don't see a mean bone in his body but if he is focused on running and gets grabbed apparently he reacts. He is housebroken. He is neutered and all of his shots are current. If you think you have what it takes to get this boy plenty of exercise and keep him contained please go to our website and complete an adoption application. www.patriotsforpets.com

Buddy is just a year old. He is a lab mix but what he is mixed with is unknown. He has lots of energy and would make an excellent running companion. His manners need some work - he is still very much a puppy. He is housebroken. He gets along with everyone but is pushy with the other dogs so would probably be best as an only dog.. He is neutered, current on his shots, heartworm negative and micro-chipped. He just needs a loving and firm hand to see him through the next year of puppyhood. He absolutely loves his toys. His adoption fee is $200.00. He will be eligible for our foster to adopt program.

Kobe is 4 years old (born February 2014). He is a Boxer mix. He is housebroken. We were told he plays too rough when he gets wound up. This is something that a little bit of training might solve. He needs to be an only dog. He is neutered, current on his shots, heartworm negative and micro-chipped. His adoption fee is $150.00. He is eligible on a foster to adopt program that is new to Patriots for 2018. If interested in adopting or fostering to adopt please go to our website at www.patriotsforpets.com and complete an adoption application and then come visit Kobe.

AWESOME news on Mr. Scooter - he had his re-check on his foot today and Dr. Rachael cleared him to be adopted. The picture shows how grateful he is to Dr. Rachael for never giving up and saving his leg. This baby - since December - has been fighting an infection in his right rear foot. Several rounds and different antibiotics were done - he has had several cultures of the foot done - he had a partial amputation of his foot done - then a second surgery on the foot when the infection reoccurred. He has undergone having the foot drained, cold laser treatment, numerous shots of antibiotics, living in a cone for months. After the last round of partial removal of more of his foot he got lucky with a foster mom who took such wonderful care of him and started working on manners - he is so proud of himself when he sits or chases a toy and brings it back and drops it at your feet. he loves to ride in the car and he loves Dr. Rachael (actually he loves anyone who will give him attention). When he started to use his right rear leg he had to endure raw and bleeding pads since he had never used the foot before. That was always a concern that his pad may also get infected. Dr. Rachael says he has very little tone loss in that leg and she believes it will catch up with the left leg quickly. His shots are current, he is neutered, his micro-chip is inserted and this beautiful baby is NOW ready for his forever home. A HUGE thank you to all of you who helped cover his thousands in medical expenses, to Dr. Rachael and Dr. Matt for all of the work they put in to save his leg and to his foster mom who worked tirelessly with him and loved him to pieces and to Brenda here at the shelter who tended to his wounds tirelessly. Someone will be very lucky when they adopt this beautiful boy.

This is Hailie. She is under two years old. We were told she is a Border Collie mix. She was out in a foster home for quite a while and did exceptionally well. She is VERY shy when she meets new people. In a home environment she comes along very well. She does great with kids and other dogs. She is housebroken. If interested in Hailie please go to our website at www.patriotsforpets.com and complete an adoption application.

Cuddles is full of love and energy. She has become dog selective here at the shelter - she picks her doggie friends very carefully. She absolutely LOVES kids and adults. Might be a little too high energy for really small children. She still needs to learn some basic manners (such as not jumping). If you are sitting down she thinks she belongs on your lap. She absolutely loves to go on long walks and does great on a leash Her name does suit her. She is probably a Pit Bull mix but she is an absolute poster child for what the breed is supposed to be which is sweet and lovable. She is spayed, current on all of her shots, micro-chipped, heartworm negtive and ready for a new home. She came to us out of Houston with the Hurricane Harvey rescue trip we did where we helped clear some of the flooded shelters. If you are interested in her, please go to our website at www.patriotsforpets.com and fill out an adoption application then come give Cuddles some love.

Hello my name is Mia (husky/Shepard mix)and I am a Hurricane Harvey survivor and a double hip surgery survivor. I have been through a lot but you would never know it. I have been staying with my foster family since hip surgery in February and working on my rehabilitation. I still need some rehab, lots of walks, runs at the dog park and I am just learning to go up and down the stairs. The foster home has 2 dogs one small and one big and I get along with both of them but I don't like them to bother me when I have a chew bone or toy. I am house broken but I am part husky so I do like to be outside and I like to try and escape the front door. I also will need a fenced in yard as I like to chase bunnies and rabbits. I haven't been around children but if they know not to sit on me or pull my tail it may be ok. I am looking for someone that will continue to help me through my rehab as I still have a long way to go. Make sure to go to patriotsforpets.com and fill out the adoption application. Because I am out in a foster home you can meet me only with an approved application and an appointment.

Jersey is about three years old and she arrived to us from Texas with 7 babies in tow. She was in a shelter and space had to be made for the Hurricane Harvey dogs and therefore she had to find a place to go or she and her babies would have been euthanized. She came to us. She isn't a very big girl at only 35 lbs. Her travel papers say she is a Terrier mi but honestly we have no clue what breed she might be. She is done with her babies but unfortunately she is heartworm positive so now must undergo heartworm treatment. We will give her a couple of weeks before we start that treatment. If you are interested in Jersey please fill out an adoption application which you will find on our website at www.patriotsforpets.com but it will be the end of November before she will be able to go home.

Patch is a four year old Boxer Mix. He has tons of energy and is finally getting his manners down pat. In typical boxer fashion he jumps with all four off the ground. He LOVES everyone - women, men, children. He gets along great with other dogs - not sure on cats. He is housebroken. If you are interested in meeting this boy please go to our website at www.patriotsforpets.com and complete an adoption application.

Sammy is under 3 years old. He came to us in early January 2017 absolutely terrified of humans. He would bite when he was terrified. He has come a LONG LONG way since then. He will now come up to his gate and allow people to gently touch him. He goes in and out without having to be on a leash and forced to go outside. He is now curious about humans and has gotten very good with the regular volunteers here at PFP. He is still scared of strangers but doesn't bite out of fear any longer. He is housebroken. He will require a quiet home with someone who is VERY patient and will just wait for him to be curious enough to seek attention. We know that adoption will set him back a little bit but it is time to start looking for his very own home. He isn't a real big boy - about 35 pounds. His breed is anyone's guess.

This is Ragnar - he was originally with us last year and has been returned. We are not even sure where to start in describing him. We have a 8 page report from his adopters describing him. There are tons and tons of good stuff on him and what a wonderful dog he is - but he is described as having a Jekyll and Hyde personality. He will do great and then all of sudden turn on someone that he knows or was just loving up to. Unfortunately in a home with children, family and friends the changing of personalities did not work. Since we have seen none of the unwanted behavior here we aren't even positive what to look for in an adopter. He is only two years old - has been to trainers who have not seen the issue so can't even begin to advise on additional things to try. The behavior exists and rears it's ugly head when least expected. About 80% of the time he appears good with other dogs and then all of a sudden that goes bad. He was originally shown as a Retriever mix but some of the behavior being described leads us to believe there is some Chow in there. For anyone interested in meeting Ragnar we will require they read the write up on him from the prior owner. Unfortunately with his bite history we will only get one final shot at finding him the right home. We hope one is out there. We "think" a single man or woman who can demonstrate they are in charge, that has very little company and strangers through the home would be best. He will also need to be the only dog. He will also need a fenced in yard to avoid having trouble with neighbor dogs.

This girl we have named Holly. She was here on a stray hold and no one ever claimed her. We will have more information on her once she sees the vet on 9/6/17.

Chubba is still very young. His DOB is 2/13/17. He is a lab/dalmation mix. He lived a miserable six months here on this earth before coming to us and our goal to make the rest of his life a good one. He was "dumped" way before he was old enough to care for himself. He ended up in an area that was filled with Porcupine and had the needles all over his body - especially his face. He had to be live trapped to get him. He was absolutely terrified and is still leary of humans but is coming around vey slowly. It took almost two months for his sores to heal and for him to "tolerate" being touched but he is doing better - all physical wounds are healed and he is now coming to the gates looking for attention, he will not in and out voluntarily without being forced. We put him in with a more outgoing dog and that has helped tremendously. He requires a loving and PATIENT home. He is not a "love you to death" type of puppy. You will have to earn that love through lots and lots of patience. He does great with other dogs and is getting more and more curious about all of the attention they get. He would probably be best in a home with another dog to help him finish coming out of his shell (a non-aggressive dog of course). He doesn't have a mean bone in his body but as with any fearful dog - he could bite - so therefore no young children for this beautiful baby. His adoption fee is $100.00. If you think you have the patience and love for this young guy, please go to our website and complete an adoption application you will find that at www.patriotsforpets.com He is neutered, current on his shots, heartworm negative and micro-chipped.

Ms. Bella is a lab mix who is still very much a puppy. Her DOB is 1/14/17.. She come to the shelter to find a new home when she got a UTI and by day three the medication wasn't working so she ended up here with us. We did the full round of medication on her and now no problems and she is looking for a forever home. She is a sweet girl with lots of energy. She gets along great with other dogs. She loves kids. She seems to ignore our kennel cat when she is loose and comes across the cat. She is a lot shy of adults when she first meets someone but we believe in a home environment she will thrive. If you are interested in adopting Bella, please go to our website at www.patriotsforpets.com and complete an adoption application. She is available on our foster to adopt program.
