Bernie (short for Bernadette) 2 y old spayed female German Shepherd Dog Shy, playful, snuggly. Like to give hugs. Loves to play ball,  and loves squeaky stuffies - will shred them and kill those darn squeakers.  She loves car rides & walks. She is dying for a playmate, but she's a bit too big for my old small dogs that don't play. She and little Doris got along so well, but Doris got adopted. I've been working on introducing bigger dogs, but she's afraid of them. I think Bernie could do well with a bigger dog if the family is committed to repeated gradual introductions. If you have a smaller dog that's super social, she might be a good fit faster.  Bernie is a wonderful girl. She's so sweet and loving. She's a sweet gentle soul with a deep loud bark. Bernie is fully vetted & her adoption fee is $0.  Applications for adoption at www.trackingintheshadows.com.  Bernie currently lives in Granger, IN. We do not accept electric/underground fences. All dogs & cats in the home must be spayed/neutered & up to date on core vaccines & preventatives in order for your application to be approved. show less

Journey. 3-4 years old. 45lbs.  Wiggle, wiggle is my name, well it’s actually Journey but the lady says I’m so happy that my tail is always wagging. Anywho, I’m really enjoying learning how to be a dog. I’m still not sure how to play with toys, but I’m really good at those sniffs and zoomies. I’ve even mastered a couple of treat puzzles and kongs. In the house I’m very respectful. I don’t have accidents and I’m crate trained. Im great around children and really like when they say hi and give me pets. I’m pretty good about chilling on the couch and staring out the window or grabbing a bone to chew on to kill time while you are busy.  I don’t bark much at all.  Speaking of chilling on the couch, man do I love to cuddle with the human. If I sits, you pets, pretty please. 😀 at night the lady lets me snuggle next to her. She says I have a cute snore but I think she’s crazy.  I could go on and on about how great I am, but let me tell about some of my quirks. First, I’m a little shy around men. I’m already more trusting than I was but I have some baggage, what can I say. I’m not reactive, I just prefer to say hi and take a little time to warm up.  I do need a fenced yard because I was given an F with leash skills. I’m a work in progress!  I’d love it if you had a dog that would like to play with me.  My foster mom loves me a lot and says I deserve the best home! Is that you? Journey is an allergy dog and will need medical management for now, but maybe for always.  She is fully vetted & her adoption fee is $0 Applications for adoption at www.trackingintheshadows.com.  Journey currently resides in Elkhart, IN. We do not accept electric/underground fences. All dogs & cats in the home must be spayed/neutered & up to date on core vaccines & preventatives in order for your application to be approved. show less

SPECIAL NEEDS Poppy is ready for adoption. She is a 5 yr old 7# Chihuahua mix. Poppy was rescued from a hoarding situation. She spent a year in a home learning the routine, but never going outside. Once we took her into the rescue we had her fully vetted including a dental & (along with a martingale collar with leash attached) from that point on Poppy's life changed. She ventured outside for the first time. Poppy requires a home that understands she may never be a dog that seeks out attention. She needs another dog in the home to help her learn the routine and also because she prefers dogs over people. Cats are fine, but she does like to bark at them. ADULT ONLY home and a SECURE FENCED YARD is required. Poppy is crate trained and housebroken. Poppy is fully vetted, spayed, & microchipped.  $175 adoption fee.  Appy at www.trackingintheshadows.com.  Please live within 1 hour of Elkhart, IN. We do not accept electric/underground fences. All dogs & cats in the home must be spayed/neutered & up to date on core vaccines & preventatives in order for your application to be approved. show less

Scruffy’s soulful eyes tell a story of a hard past, but he has a hopeful spirit of better days ahead. He was caught after running free in an Indianapolis neighborhood for 4+ months, visiting with neighbor dogs and eating food that people left out for him. After a few rough days, the shelter sought a foster for him to decompress.  It is clear from his comfort in the home that he was once someone’s pet. He is both potty and crate trained and very food motivated. However, he is fearful of people that try to get too close or touch him.  He tolerates his face touched and allows an occasional nose boop, but all other touch is on his terms. Many a nights I wake to find him curled up in the crook of my legs. He needs a home that will accept that he may never be a lap dog, but can still be a great companion.  Scruffy is a #20 terrier mix that is roughly 2-3 years old. He is a playful guy. There isn’t a toy he doesn’t want to drag out if the bin and scatter around the house, or a bone he doesn’t want to try out. He loves being with dogs about his size- both to rumble and cuddle. He walks great on a leash and moves pretty darn fast for a guy with short legs.  Although he hasn’t been cat tested, he isn’t bothered at all by the neighborhood cats that jump into the backyard. A secured fence is a must for Scruffy! He also needs another dog in the home.    Scruffy is fully vetted & his adoption fee has been sponsored.  Applications for adoption are at www.trackingintheshadows.com.  Please live within 1 hour of Elkhart, IN.
