9. Abbs

Adult · Female · Labrador Retriever / Terrier / Mixed · 84 mi from Bloomington

I'm a sweet energetic gal. House broken, crate trained, good with kids and other dogs. My parents took in some long term guests into the home, with the crowding and delicate nature of some of the new residents, I had to start spending a lot more time in the yard. I get bored sometimes and get into trouble in the yard. They said I am good in the house though, so they let me have run of the house while they are at work. I'm really hoping that I can find a new family to love me and let me be a central part of the family again. If you are interested in meeting and/or adopting this baby, please fill out an application.

He does well in his crate and is making great progress with leash training while working on potty training. When it comes to food, Hendrix is a little bougie! He’s a picky eater and prefers his wet food mixed in with his dry food. He knows what he likes!Hendrix would do best in a quiet, low key home and if children older would be best where he can take his time getting comfortable. He isn’t looking for a crazy, busy lifestyle, he really just wants to be somebody’s little buddy. Once Hendrix feels safe and settled, you get to see the sweet, funny guy underneath that nervous exterior.Hendrix is currently fostered in the Cincinnati, Ohio area and is ready to find his forever family!If you are interested in meeting and/or adopting this baby, please fill out an application.

Bringing a dog home to your cat

Tell the rescue about your cat: their age and how they react to dogs. A dog who has lived calmly with one cat may still want to chase a cat that runs.

Introduce them slowly. Keep them apart for the first few days and swap bedding so they get used to each other's scent, then let them meet with the dog on a leash, rewarding calm behavior.

Make sure the cat can always get somewhere the dog can't reach, like a high shelf or a room behind a baby gate, and keep the litter box and cat food out of the dog's way.
