  — Hallie L.

• “I’m a small dog with a big personality. I love people, but once outside I’m all about the sniffs! I’m a Jagdterrier - not a super common breed in Indy. I have some quirks, but I love my people and especially love my mom!“

  — Lisa W.

• “I am an insane 3 year old great dane! Momma purchased me when I was 8 weeks old at 15 pounds (she cries when looking at my baby pictures and it's honestly embarrassing). I am a nutcase. Whoever told my mom that danes were lazy, were wrong! I will zoom zoom for hours!“

  — Molly V.

• “Sup dudes and dudettes! A little about me is I love to run, play with a soccer ball, eat ice cream all over my mom’s clean clothes, and do anything and everything with my mom. I definitely live up to the husky name because I love to talk, have zoomies, and never get tired. There is one thing about me though, i survived parvo/distemper as a puppy and have a bit of a twitch now. It doesn’t bother me but lots of dogs and humans question it!“

  — Rachel Z.
