Sweet Thumper's mom made the very difficult decision to surrender her to rescue as taking care of her has become difficult for her. Thumper will be going to the vet in Indy on 8/14 to get all caught up on her routine vetting then we will work on transport to her Minnesota foster home. Thumper is good with kids ages 2+ and loves all people. She has not been around other dogs and she is not good with cats. She is housebroken. Thumper doesn't have much interest in toys and she is afraid of loud noises. Please check back soon for more pictures and information on this beautiful fawn girl.8/29 UPDATE...Thumper arrived at her Minnesota foster home and she is getting settled in and learning all about her new place.

This ADORABLE little girl arrived at her Ohio foster home not quite two weeks ago and she is doing very well there. Harper has a lot going on....her backend is a little wonky, she needs to get her mouth/teeth checked out, and she had some bumps removed that we are a little concerned about. She is the sweetest thing, is eating well and is definitely soaking up all of the love and attention in her foster home. Harper tested iffy with other dogs at the shelter and has not been around cats or kids. She is completely vetted, including spayed and microchipped.

This little girl's family moved and instead of taking her with them, she was surrendered to a local vet clinic. We were contacted to help her and how could we say no?!? Lovebug is approximately 10 weeks old and has had her first round of puppy vetting. She arrived at her foster home on 6/28 and she very quickly won everyone's hearts. She is super smart, not afraid of anything and full of puppy energy! She does great in the crate overnight and loves to spend her day playing with everyone and everything....she LOVES toys. We are working on getting her in for her second round of puppy vetting then she will be ready to find her furver home.

This beautiful girl was surrendered to an Indiana shelter when her family brought a new dog into the home that she just did not want to share her space with. She did not do well at the shelter at all and was completely shutdown and lost 10 pounds while in there. We are so thankful to our shelter contact and to everyone who stepped up to get this precious girl to us. Alfa is the SWEETEST and is very generous with her kisses for all. She arrived at her Minnesota foster home a few days ago and she is doing well with figuring out her new place. Alfa tested well with other dogs at the shelter, however, prefers to be the only dog in the home.

Sandy & Danny were picked up as strays in Boone County, IN. They are WONDERFUL dogs....both very sweet, get along with everyone and everything, and are now fully vetted. They love nothing more that to be lap dogs, although Danny is a little big for that but shhhhhhhh! Don't tell him! This beautiful pair are in a temporary foster home and are looking for a foster (until adopted home), a forever foster home, or a forever home.

Welcome Blanca to CCPAL Rescue. She is a 2 year old Rat Terrier mix. She came in from a hoarding situation. We received 3 dogs from this case. One was adopted already and one had to go to a specialized trainer in another Rescue. Blanca has started opening up and allowing people to pet her and hold her. She never got any attention in her original home, the hoarder. She is good with other dogs and causes no issues. She is kennel trained and her response to being afraid is to run and hide. She is a timid girl and not the social butterfly. She would be perfect with a person that is more introverted and wants a pet that is also similar. Blanca would be satisfied being at home with you all the time. A small walk in the yard would be fine. She until now, has not walked on leash. She is learning to do it at our Rescue. She would like a patient owner and a quieter home. An older couple or older single person would be great. Someone with a quieter home. She would be fine kenneled away if you had a party or people over. She is not very vocal and prefers to blend into the woodwork. She is really a great dog for the right family. She is getting her vaccinations, nail trims and will be spayed soon and ready for her forever home. She could be adopted locally in Texas or we could work with one of the wonderful transporters to get her to Washington, Portland, Minnesota, Vermont or all along the East Coast. Her adoption fee is $400 and transport is $200. . Rhode Island and Massachusetts are not states we adopt to because of the regulations imposed by these states.
