🐾 Meet Skylor 🐾
This handsome man is ready to find a home! Skylor is very affectionate, but does take a minute to warm up. Here at the shelter he is what we call a "wall-flower". He is interested in you, but takes a bit of time to warm up. He becomes more social everyday. His favorite past time, when not being pet, is to hang out in one of the boxes on the wall and oversee our lobby area. Skylor does love to bet pet, but will also let you know when he has received enough. He also makes for a great conversation, as he is one chatty cat!
All of our available animals, like Skylor, and our adoption application can be found here, https://www.indy.gov/activity/adopt-a-pet.
This weekend we are hosting an adoption event to help our animals find homes! You can schedule your weekend appointment here, https://www.indy.gov/activity/adoption-event-at-the-shelter_unpublished_0_unpublished_0
Look at this CHONKY wiggle butt!! 😍
Emahni has been at IACS since September with very little interest from adopters.
Thanks to Friends of Indianapolis Animal Care Services Emahni has been gifted a Royal Recess 🏰 at Pet Palace where she will receive the royal treatment and enjoy lots of playtime and relaxation!
Emahni is 5 years old and 65lbs of silly, sweet, chatty, playful love. She's bouncy and sassy. She loves treats and kisses and toys. She lived with and was surrendered with a male dog so a meet and greet with your current furry friend is recommended. She's house trained, walks well on a leash, and will steal your heart with that smile!
Please help us find Emahni a home by December 14 so she does not have to go back to the stressful shelter.
All this princess needs for her fairy-tale ending is a FUREVER home!
Email [email protected] to learn more and schedule a time to meet Emahni!
❤️Ready for his forever home❤️
My name is Wallace and I’m a three-year-old,neutered, 50 pound mix. I came to the shelter as a stray. I have lived with a small female dog in the past! I am a smart boy and I know how to sit and shake hands, I’m also a very gentle treat taker. I love to play fetch and I’ve learned the command drop it!! I’m dog selective so if you have furry ones at home I will need to meet them prior to adoption, is not unknown how I would do with cats are children.
Ready to meet Wallace? You can put in an adoption application at https://www.indy.gov/activity/adopt-a-pet and an adoption counselor will contact you to set up an appointment and answer any questions you have.

Moses has been waiting since August for his FUREVER home. That is a long time in a stressful shelter. Thanks to Pet Palace in Indianapolis and Friends of Indianapolis Animal Care Services, Moses is receiving two weeks of royal treatment during his ROYAL RECESS!
We are so grateful to be able to give him this break from the shelter with a staycation at Pet Palace where he is enjoying lots of playtime and relaxation.
Moses will charm his way right into your heart (and home)! He would do best with an active family. Although he is 7 years old, he still has plenty of energy to burn and can't wait to do so exploring with his new family! But don't worry, he still knows how to give major cuddles as well (I mean, look at that face - how could you not cuddle it?!).
Moses came in as a stray, so it is unknown how he does with other dogs, cats, and children.
All this prince needs for his fairy-tale ending is a FUREVER home!

Today's Happy Tail is about Jerry! Here is what his family has to say,
"On August 7th, we adopted our boy Jerry (names Gerry in the shelter). He has quickly stole our heart and warmed up to not only us, but also our 8 month old Calico and 3 year old Staffordshire Terrier. Jerry is without a doubt the silliest cat with the biggest personality. We call him Jerry (after Jerry Seinfeld). He is now almost 6 months old and constantly eating/stealing food right off our plates (which we try to stop). He thinks he is a big strong boy, but you will quickly know otherwise when you hear his sweet, innocent, whine for attention rather than a loud "meow". Jerry is the cuddliest buddy and I can't imagine our home without this bundle of joy."
It's great to see how much Jerry has grown in his home! If you've adopted from us and have a Happy Tail you want to share send us an e-mail to [email protected]

Today's Happy Tail is about Tucker! Here is what his family has to say,
"We adopted Tucker (formerly known as Rico) in March of 2020. When we first approached Tucker, he was very shy and hesitant to come say hi. After a little bit of sweet talking and some patience, Tucker slowly approached us and then immediately warmed up to us with a kiss. We decided right then that we wanted to take him outside to the outdoor area and spend alone time with him. Here is where we fell in love with our sweet boy!
Tucker fit right in with our family from the beginning and continues to fill our home with so much love and laughter! He is the biggest snuggler and always has to be in the middle of our cuddle sessions. He has made so many doggo friends (human ones, too)! He is an avid lover of all things water and adores swimming! Tucker’s favorite place (besides the couch) is his family’s cabin on the lake! Here he can be found swimming in the water, chasing chipmunks/squirrels/deer (you name it!), basking in the sun, chewing on his favorite bone, and wandering through the woods! He definitely keeps us on our toes and we wouldn’t have it any other way!
We cannot imagine our lives without him! We are forever grateful for walking into the shelter this past March and meeting our sweet boy! Thank you for choosing us, Tuck. We love you endlessly!"

🐶🐶 Pork Chop is what some may call a food connoisseur. He can't resist his fine whines and cheeses so much so that we chose the perfect food name to match his personality scrumptiously. This 60-pound chunky boy is crispy around the edges but holds many layers like grandma's lasagna. Pork Chop's tangy personality makes him a one pup chef but will keep you energized nonetheless. Among this fiery 2-year old's many layers is a chilled boy looking for a snacking gourmand just like him. Don't miss your opportunity to snuggle up with this hunky foodie and enjoy your favorite foods together!
Ready to meet Pork Chop? You can put in an adoption application at https://www.indy.gov/activity/adopt-a-pet and an adoption counselor will contact you to set up an appointment and answer any questions you have.

🍁Ready to Fall in love?🍁
Hi, my name is Pork Chop and as you can see from my video, I am a cute, fun guy with lots of energy. No one really knows how old I am because I came in as a stray. I have been working on my training while I have been here and the trainers think I am really smart and a fast learner. I know sit, walk (mostly) nice on leash and I work hard for treats. The most important thing to know about me is that after an active day I am the type of guy who will want to cuddle up on the couch and snuggle.

Hi! My name is Roxy! I am approximately 3 years old and I am very smart and a quick learner. I am already crate trained and house trained. I love cuddling, being close to my family and belly rubs! I am looking for a home where I can be the only dog. It is unknown how I do with cats. I would be best in a home with older children who can respect my space. The most important thing to know about me is that I am a loyal and devoted companion but am slow to meet new people and will take patience and love to be most trusting of new people.

This adorable boy is Forrest!
He is a fun-loving boy that likes to bob for treats in the doggie pool, play chase with the flirt pole, and lean in for some pets and chin scratches. He is not much of a fan of other dogs, so he would like to be your one-and-only. He absolutely
loves going for walks and is eager to learn new things if you have tasty treats! Forrest can be shy when meeting new people and would do best in a calm home without any small children.
Thanks to our generous donors and Friends of Indianapolis Animal Care Services, we can give Forrest a break from the shelter and the opportunity to learn some amazing skills at Click Treat Repeat Canine Coaching, LLC! He will be receiving daily
one-on-one exercise, training, and playtime!
Want to add this boy to your life? Email [email protected] to set up a time to learn more and meet him!

Hi, I’m Pamcakes! I'm 3 years old and just LOVE to play in the pool! Unlike pancakes, you won't find me getting soggy. I would do best in a home without children or other pets. Come throw me a treat and watch me catch it! As you can see from my video I also love to play fetch. I believe that when Ron Swanson says, “There has never been a sadness that can’t be cured by breakfast food,” he’s referring to me! So what are you waiting for? Let me be the missing piece of your life!
