us after her owner realized she deserved more space to run, play, and grow. She’s everything people adore about the breed — expressive, loyal, vocal, and incredibly sweet. Indy has lived with dogs before, but because she didn’t grow up around many, she can feel unsure when meeting new canine friends. She wants to be social; she just needs guidance and confidence‑building. For that reason, a home with friendly doggie neighbors rather than doggie siblings will be the best fit while she continues to learn. We’re also looking for someone with GSD experience, someone who understands the breed’s sensitivity, intelligence, and need for structure, and who can help Indy grow into the dog we know she can be. She’s doing well here, but like any young, active dog — especially a shepherd — she doesn’t belong in a shelter. Indy thrives on connection, routine, and having her people close. She’s ready for a home where she can stretch her legs, use her big shepherd brain, and be loved the way she deserves. Indy is waiting for the person who will help her feel safe, confident, and understood. If you’re ready to guide a sweet, eager young GSD into her best self, Indy is ready to meet you. . Indy's adoption fee is $87, which helps support their medical care and preparation for adoption. If you are interested in meeting any of our animals, we encourage you to first visit our website and submit an adoption application: .acskc/adopt-1 Once your adoption application has been approved, we will call you to set up an appointment to meet with the pet! We welcome adopters from out of state to apply! _ When it comes to our pets, we're all-inclusive! ACSKC Health Care for Each Adopted Pet Includes: Dogs: Preventatives for parasites, vaccines (Kennel Cough, Distemper, Rabies), spay/neuter, microchip, behavioral assessment. Cats: Parasite treatment, FeLV/FIV testing, deworming for kittens, vaccines (Distemper, Rabies), spay/neuter, microchip. What You’ll Take Home: Toys, treats, and food sample Rabies tag, microchip number, and medical records A “Pet Pal Packet” with feeding info, training tips, and guidance for helping your new pet adjust

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
