Jaime - Poodle and Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Hobart, Indiana

Meet Our J Crew!

These eight littles recently came from a puppy mill situation with 98 dogs in total.

Here's what one of the rescues who helped with the initial pull had to say, "A total of 98 dogs have been removed from this puppy mill after being in violation, USDA has shut them down for 6 months, only 6 months. Hours of sorting, documentation, scanning, photos, and driving. We were covered in urine, feces, sweat, anal glands, dealing with heat, humidity, flies, maggots, and a hot box of a barn. The breeder was not there, he is gone 4 days out of the week, THIS is where your cute puppies come from, the ones you find online, and in pet stores. He proudly displays his breeding barn name on a wall above his office. 97 lives saved. one died between last week and this week, we do not know what happened."

All of these guys are very scared and under-socialized. They will need adopters who are patient and can provide lots of positive experiences. Many of them have literally ever been outside or had their feet touch anything other then a wire grate floor. Literally. They had never been fed or watered from bowls. Their interactions with humans were very limited.

We are still getting to know each of them as they decompress and will update their profiles as we learn more.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.

The Poodle is a highly intelligent and elegant dog breed known for its distinctive curly coat and graceful appearance. Originally bred as water retrievers, Poodles come in three size varieties Standard, Miniature, and Toy each with their unique characteristics but sharing the breed's alert and friendly nature. Renowned for their hypoallergenic qualities and keen sense of humor, Poodles excel in various dog sports and activities, making them versatile companions suitable for different lifestyles and living situations.
