🐾 Scooter has a small favor to ask...

We could really use donations of bleach! We use it every day to sanitize the laundry and we are down to our last bottle.

If you're heading to the store, consider grabbing an extra bottle or two for the shelter. Any brand is fine. Prefer to shop from home? You can also send it directly to us through our Amazon Wish List!

Every donation helps us care for pets like Scooter while they wait for their forever homes. ❤️

Thank you for supporting the animals at Porter County Animal Shelter!

🐾❤️ Happy National Dog Day! ❤️🐾

Today is all about celebrating the dogs who make our lives happier, sillier, and so much better. And we think the dogs at Porter County Animal Shelter deserve a little extra love today! 🐶

Every one of them has a story, a personality, and a whole lot of love to give. Some have been waiting days, some months, and some far too long for someone to see what we see in them. 💙

This National Dog Day, consider giving a shelter dog the best gift of all—a chance at a forever home. 🏡

Because every dog deserves to be someone's favorite. ❤️

🎉Summer finished her heartworm treatment🎉

Summer is a happy, energetic, and smart girl who found herself back at the shelter after being returned from adoption. Since then, she tested positive for both heartworm and Lyme disease. Summer is ready to find the forever home she deserves.

She’s great with kids, loves people, and deserves so much more than kennel life.

💔 Noah is back… and we’re still searching for his perfect fit.

Noah has been returned to the shelter once again, and honestly, we just haven’t been able to find the right home for him yet.

Here’s what makes Noah a little tricky: he is dog friendly, but he doesn’t do well living with another dog. We aren’t sure exactly why, but we know that a home where he can be the only dog is going to be his best chance at success.

And that’s okay. ❤️ Not every dog is meant to live with another dog. We just need to find the person who understands Noah and can give him the home that fits him.

Noah is still waiting. Still hopeful. And still looking for that perfect fit. 🐾

Could that be you?

🐾 Hattie is ready for her next adventure! 🐾

This sweet girl is more than ready to leave the shelter behind! Hattie is looking for an active family who can keep up with her energy. A fenced yard would be a BIG plus because this girl needs room to run, play, and burn off some of that zoomie energy! 🏃‍♀️💨

Hattie is dog friendly, but she'll need a confident dog who can tolerate her bold personality. 😜

Could Hattie be the energetic best friend your family has been looking for? ❤️

Luna has had some really good interactions lately but still hasn't been chosen.💔
She is . . .
💛 Loyal to her core
🧠 Smart and observant
🚶 Loves spending time with her people
🌟 Beautiful inside and out
🏡 Prefers a calm, quiet lifestyle

Like a true German Shepherd, Luna forms deep bonds with her people and enjoys being close to those she trusts. She may be shy at first, but beneath that reserved exterior is a sweet, gentle girl who just needs a little time to feel comfortable.

If you're looking for a loyal companion, Luna may be your perfect match. 💙

Every day, Cara hopes today will be the day someone chooses her. Instead, she keeps getting overlooked.

Cara is a 4–5-year-old American Bulldog mix with a goofy personality, endless enthusiasm, and a heart full of love. At around 65 pounds, she doesn't quite realize how big she is—she's the kind of dog who will happily run over to greet you at full speed, convinced she's the perfect lap dog.

She's silly, playful, and always ready to make you laugh, but once she's had a chance to burn off some energy, you'll discover her sweet, affectionate side that loves spending time with her people.

🏡 Cara would do best:
• As the only dog in the home
• In a family ready for an active, fun-loving best friend

Cara has so much love to give. She just needs someone willing to give her a chance.

Please share this post—you never know who might be looking for a dog exactly like Cara. ❤️🐾
