Adopting a dog is a life-changing experience, especially a Bob’s House dog, because they are often senior or special needs dogs. Please take time to research what that means before making this decision.
Adoptable Dogs
Meet the Dogs of Our "Kennel to Couch" Program!
ADOPTABLE DOGS
All dogs in our Kennel to Couch program are adoptable! We help area shelters by placing senior and disabled dogs in a comfortable home-like environment while they wait to be adopted. While fostering, we provide meticulous healthcare, high quality food and lots of love and attention! 100% of all adoption fees go back to the shelter we fostered for. If you see a dog you are interested in please fill out an application to set up a meeting.
THE SENIOR DOG ADVANTAGE
Why Should I Adopt a Senior Dog?
The Senior Dog
Many people automatically think of a puppy when they think of adding a dog to their family. Sure, puppies are cute and cuddly and everyone want to snuggle them, but lets face it, puppies are a lot of work! At Bob’s House, we love a puppy as much as the next person, but we’ve found that our seniors not only have the same cuddles and kisses that puppies have, but they are quieter, more content, and are happy just being near you.
Reasons to Love a Senior Dog:
- They love naps and snuggles
- They know and are grateful that you rescued them
- They are trained on many basic commands
- They make excellent therapy dogs
- You are saving a life!
Equals 100% Love
- Naps
- Cuddles
- Kisses
HAPPY TAILS!

Bella's Story
Bella's new mom, Katie, had never had a dog before. But after meeting Bella she fell totally in love. Now Bella is living the good life. She's spoiled by her mom and her family with treats, outfits, collars, and leashes. She loves to snuggle and get belly rubs, and they are never in short supply! Katie says, ``Many times, I have proudly spoke of our connection to Bob's House and hope that others can find the love and happiness we have found together.``Tigger, Tiger & Honey's Story
Both Tiger and Honey came from an abusive home, but luckily found their way to Bob's House. After being adopted along with Tigger (from an area shelter), they found a wonderful family that gave them a home full of the love and care they deserve. The three amigos get to live out their days with their new furever family, and their new mom and dad say they would adopt from Bob's House again, and still like to visit!Smokey's Story
This loving boy came to Bob's House back in 2014 after being picked up as a stray and living at Dodge County Humane Society for three months. After only a few days at Bob's House his furever family found him. Fast forward through obedience classes, therapy dog certification and achieving his Canine Good Citizen and Therapy Dog titles to a dog that is working in elementary schools helping with their reading skills. He is loved and happy every day!"An amazing organization! They have helped us so much at CRHS by taking some of our senior dogs that need extra medical care and TLC. We appreciate all that you do and thank you from the bottom of our hearts."
"Best place ever! I got the sweetest, most precious little dog from this organization. They do awesome work and love and find homes for these special needs and senior dogs."
"We were lucky enough to get our Suzy from Bob's House. It was the most wonderful experience working with Bob's who was fostering Suzy for a Lab rescue in Madison. Thank god they are so wonderful or we would have never found our beloved furry family member."
"I love the concept of this place. I have two new members of my happy family because they found me when I visited Bob's House. I believe every parent should take their children to Bob's to see what old or sick dogs look like, and how they deserve love too. I feel good about donating to Bob's House for Dogs and I hope to be an active part of the success of the mission at this great place."
"I have volunteered from day one at Bob's House and the dogs are truly loved so much here. I wish there was more Bob's House in the US. Less shelters more Bob's House environment."
"Best shelter ever! They have a living room setting for the dogs to live in. Volunteers are there to interact with them at the facility while others take the dogs on nursing home visits, etc. If you are looking for a place to make a donation that REALLY makes a difference in dogs' lives, PLEASE give to Bob's House for Dogs."
"Wonderful place for dogs to live while they're waiting to be adopted. I also can't give them enough credit for their hospice program. So glad places like this exist and it's great to hear they're expanding!"
