1. Quinn

2. Roy

Adult · Male · Shepherd / Mixed (medium coat) · 14 mi from Bellevue

Meet our Good Boy Roy! Some dogs like Roy (aka Royal) come into our lives and brings so much joy while quietly touching all who have met him, yet still he is passed over time and again. We know what a great companion he is and know that someday his person/family will find him!

Read more about Roy

His people are his everything! At around 60 pounds he's certainly not huge but oh he loves to be a lap dog or right beside you. Royal craves love and attention, but who doesn’t want a best friend to love them with their whole heart while serving up slobbery kisses?! This handsome guy is potty trained, crate trained, has great manners and at 3 years old Royal has years yet to give you his undying love!

Roy thrives on a routine, unconditional love, and snuggling! He is extremely smart, loyal and is easy to keep busy with bones. He also loves children (as you can see in his photo!), toys, walks and being the one and only king of his house. Although he and can walk by other dogs and even play occasionally with submissive dogs with supervision. Royal thinks he is put on this earth for you so you may have a best friend permanently attached to you in about 30 seconds flat!

This brings us to why and how to answer when asked "How is he not adopted yet when he's such a good boy?" The short answer is he prefers to be the only dog in the house. The reason? Our good boy Roy simply has a fear of some dogs, especially alpha dogs. Which we must say that so many people want just one dog in a house, so why not him? A 6 foot fence is preferable but can discuss.

Please help our Roy/Royal find his forever home by applying or sharing his story! Please apply at www.HavenAnimalRescueNebraska.org!

DONATION ADOPTION FEE $300

*ALL DOGS MUST BE INSIDE COMPANION ANIMALS! They must all be trained with positive reward based training and all are up to date with vaccinations, altered, microchipped, HeartWorm tested, and on preventatives.

4. Beanie Weenie

Young · Male · Chinese Crested-Hairless / Shih Tzu / Mixed (short coat) · 3 mi from Bellevue

If you were wondering what happens when you cross a majestic gargoyle with a very concerned Harry Potter house elf (and name him after a savory snack) look no further. Those bat ears? Radar-ready. Those tufts of hair? Pure wizard chic. That facial expression? A mix of deep, ancient wisdom and absolute confusion as to why a literal beanie weanie (or piece of cheese) hasn’t magically appeared in his mouth yet.
*13 months old
*Chinese crested/shih Tzu mix
*Male
*Weight - 11.25 pounds
*Medical- up to date, including neuter and microchip
*Personality - initially cautious, curious and once comfortable full time snuggle buddy
*Good with cats and dogs -
*Human Children - unknown but based on current exposure he would do well with respectful children
*Men - LOVES them. Yes, he is fine with women, but he loves him a man.
*Potty trained - I'm gonna say 99.99% because we're still learning each other's language.

Read more about Beezus

Beezus had surgery on both knees before she turned a year old to correct luxating patellas, which made walking difficult. Thankfully, she's healed up beautifully and can run and play like any other pup! She'd love another friendly dog to play with, a cat to share her space with, or she'd be perfectly happy as your one and only, as long as you're willing to provide the snuggles.

She's housebroken, crate trained, walks well on a leash, and is well behaved when left to roam the house. The perfect dog! She sleeps quietly through the night with her people, too. Beezus does have some seasonal allergies that have been well managed with Cytopoint injections as needed, typically during late summer and fall.

Beezus is the whole package! Sweet, playful, friendly, well behaved, and ready to be someone's favorite cuddle buddy. She's spayed, fully vetted and vaccinated, microchipped, and ready for her forever home! Her adoption donation fee is $375.

8. Willow

Adult · Female · Chihuahua · 16 mi from Bellevue

Meet Willow — Our Newest Little Gal to rescue! Born 12/2/2021. Tiny in size, big on cuteness! Willow has just arrived at rescue, and we’re already excited to get to know this little cup-sized sweetheart.We’re still learning all about her personality, quirks, and what makes her special, so consider this her introduction rather than her full story. We’ll keep updating her bio as she settles in and we discover more about this little girl.Here’s what we know so far about Willow: tiny girl, impressive résumé! She’s house and kennel trained, gets along well with other dogs, and is happy to welcome canine pals and new human admirers into her fan club! Her preferred audience? The middle-school-and-up crowd.

Read more about Willow

Younger kiddos aren’t on her guest list, so she’d preferably have a home without little ones. A girl this small is allowed to have a few big opinions!She’ll also need secure fencing with no little escape routes—wrought iron bars, small holes, and loose spots can all become Chihuahua-sized doorways! Her yard needs to keep her adventures safely contained.Willow arrived with a little extra cushion, so she’s looking for someone to join her on her “less pudge, more pep” journey. Regular walks and a nutritious diet with sensible portions will help her reach a healthy weight and feel her best. She’ll bring the charm; you bring the leash and measuring scoop! The suggested adoption fee for Willow is $585. Bullies-N-Beyond ResQ Inc. is a 501(c)3, non-profit corporation that is 100% volunteer operated. Adoption donation fees are the primary source of funding for the cost of veterinary care for our animals. All dogs adopted through BNBR will have been administered their age appropriate vaccines which may include DHPP, Rabies, Lepto and Bordetella. All dogs will also be adopted out as already altered if of age, for those not of age, a voucher will be provided.

She walks great on a leash, too—your tiny walking buddy is ready for her next outing! When it comes to children, she prefers the middle-school-and-up crowd, so a home without younger kiddos would be her preference. Small girl, selective guest list!Maple will need secure fencing because her petite size makes ordinary gaps look like open invitations. Wrought iron bars, small holes, and loose spots can become exits for a determined little explorer, so her yard needs to keep her adventures safely on the right side of the fence.She also arrived carrying a little extra sweetness around the middle and is working toward a healthy weight. She’s looking for someone committed to regular walks and a nutritious diet with sensible portions to help her feel her best. With those lovely leash manners, she’s already doing her part—she just needs a partner for her “more strolls, fewer snacks” era! The suggested adoption fee for Maple is $585.

Jimothy (nicknamed Jimmy or Slim Jim) is the perfect combination of brains, sweetness, and just a little bit of lovable chaos. He is a sweet, affectionate dog who loves to participate in whatever you're doing, mostly following you from room to room. Jimothy gets along wonderfully with other dogs and enjoys playing with a variety of toys, but bones are his favorite. This 30 pound, 6 to 7 month old puppy is most likely a mix of husky/shepherd as a best guess but he is 100% gorgeous with his one blue eye!

Apparently, Jimothy readily agrees with his handsomeness and will occasionally bark at his own reflection alerting everyone to his good looks, lol! Jimmy is a world-class cuddle bug who falls asleep in positions that seem physically impossible. Need a winter warmer? His favorite place is right next to his humans, preferably touching them at all times. If you're looking for a dog who believes personal space is optional, Jimothy is your nuzzle guy!

Jimothy has a strong foundation in both potty and crate training and continues to make great progress. Like many dogs adjusting to a new home, he'll thrive with patience, routine, and positive reinforcement. If this easy happy guy sounds like a perfect match and you’re to snuggle up, please apply at www.HavenAnimalRescueNebraska.org!

Lucky enjoys playing with other dogs and really aims to please the pack leader (his foster mom). He's learning basic commands and is sleeping at night in a kennel. Although, he is coming out of his shell more each day his overall demeanor is more of a chill, low key guy that is a bit on the shy side. He is easy to please and just wants to be by his people and soak in the affection and attention. Lucky would love another resident dog in the family to help him build his confidence and a fenced in yard is required.

Read more about Cochise

Because Cochise has only lived in an outdoor kennel, he will need to learn how to live in a home. GPPR dogs are indoor dogs, so his foster family will need to be prepared to help him learn the routines and expectations of indoor living, including potty training. Patience will be especially important as he adjusts to a completely new environment.

Adult · Female · Yellow Labrador Retriever (short coat) · 3 mi from Bellevue

Betty is a wonderful 4-year-old yellow lab. She is spayed and current on her vaccinations. Like most labs her age Betty is is an active happy silly playful girl.
Her current owner has some health issues that make the active lifestyle she needs hard. Betty has lived with another lab. Betty is not looking an active dog who will be in her face. She is use to old and slow as a housemate. She has never been around cats and would probably chase or want to play with them so let’s say no to cats to be safe.
Betty loves every person she meets with her happy wiggly butt but also will want to jump on them so a home with older kids would be better since she can clearly knock over small ones.
Beautiful Betty is housetrained and baby gated trained but has not been in a kennel for years. She is not a hunting dog as she is gun and load noise shy. Betty is a purebred lab about 60 lbs and all love.

Why adopt an adult dog in Bellevue

An adult dog's personality is fully formed, so the rescue can tell you how they are with people, other pets and busy households. Many have lived in foster homes and are already house-trained.

Grown dogs need less supervision than puppies and often know the basics, like sitting and walking on a leash, which suits people who work or have young children.
