🐾 CHOWDER IS LOOKING FOR HIS FOREVER HOME — COUNTRY HOME PREFERRED! 🌲🐶

📋 Adoption application is in the comments!

Chowder is a puppy with a whole lot of personality! His breed mix is anyone's guess — some type of merle, possibly some Pit Bull, but we're pretty sure there is definitely some Corgi mixed in there somewhere! 😄

98% of the time, Chowder is an absolutely great dog. He is obedient, fun, and loves being part of the action.

The other 2%? We believe Chowder simply doesn't fully understand how to play appropriately with humans yet. It can start with playful nipping at feet and occasionally move toward the ankles. He has caused no damage — just noisy, inappropriate puppy behavior that needs the right guidance and boundaries.

Because of this, we are looking for a confident, calm, experienced owner.

🌲 A country home would be a huge bonus.
🚜 Someone with land or an active outdoor lifestyle.
🐕 Someone who understands that dogs need structure, exercise, and clear boundaries.
💪 Someone who won't panic over normal puppy behavior but will confidently guide him through it.

Chowder may be the perfect dog for someone who spends their days outdoors, has room to explore, and wants a loyal companion by their side.

He doesn't need to live in a mansion. He doesn't need fancy things.

He needs a leader. A life with structure. And a person willing to help him become the incredible dog we know he can be.

If you're a country person looking for a loyal sidekick and think Chowder might be your kind of dog, fill out the adoption application in the comments!

Great dog looking for a foster or furever home

🚨 URGENT FOSTER NEEDED FOR ROXIE BY THURSDAY! 🚨

Roxie needs someone willing to give her the fresh start she deserves. ❤️

This sweet 2-year-old, 80 lb Lab mix has been bounced around from home to home over the last few months. She’s a great girl, but all of that change has understandably left her with some anxiety. What Roxie needs now is stability, consistency, exercise, and a home where she can finally settle in and relax.

The good news? Roxie has been working with a trainer, and her trainer is willing to continue working with her AND her new foster to help make the transition successful. You will have support as Roxie settles in and starts this next chapter. ❤️

🐾 Potty trained
🐾 Crate trained
🐾 Dog friendly — big & small
🐾 Good with kids
🐾 Loves car rides
🐾 Sweet, affectionate & loves her people
🐾 Training support provided

We are looking for a foster who can commit to Roxie until she finds her forever home, not just a temporary placement. She has had enough moving around. This girl needs someone willing to give her the time to decompress, build a routine, and know that she’s safe.

We need a foster by Thursday. Please help us give Roxie the stability she has been missing. 🥺❤️

📍 Appleton, WI
🐾 Apply to foster at thehopehighway.org

Please share — Roxie needs her person to step up.

We Are Dog Psychologists — Not Trainers

There’s an important distinction between what we do and traditional dog training.

We are dog psychologists, not trainers.

There is no certification for the specific work we do. And honestly, we don’t believe a piece of paper is what defines our ability to help a dog.

Trainers often focus on teaching behaviors and commands.

We focus on the psychology behind the behavior.

We don't come from a place of excitement, hype, or constantly talking to the dog.

We come from a place of calm.

We look at the dog in front of us, the human energy around that dog, the environment, boundaries, communication, and the patterns that created the behavior in the first place.

Our credentials?

Look at the lives we've already helped save.

The dogs you see in the videos on Pack Healer and Namaste K9 Psychology are our résumé.

Every dog we've helped understand.
Every family we've helped change.
Every dog that avoided being surrendered, abandoned, or euthanized.

That's what matters to us.

We don't need a certificate to prove what the results already show.

We don't train dogs to perform.

We help people understand dogs.
