Story
Hello, my name is Shadow and I am a 2 year old Border Collie mix with a beautiful coat. I am fully vaccinated and spayed, have a very fun personality and love to go on nature walks, play in the house, and tug of war with my ropes and toys. I am crate trained and sleep all night quietly and am also fully house trained. For the past year, I have lived at Dog Republic in Newport where I have had on-going training for my "stranger danger and learning to better trust humans:) I love all of my dog buddies and the humans I know & trust. I still have stranger danger and will need someone who understands my dog anxiety better. I am very sweet with all the people I am comfortable with but will still need help on my walks and meeting new people. I am extremely food motivated and will do almost any command for a good treat. I can't wait to meet you and find my forever home!!! Shadow's Adoption fee is $350 and includes spay, microchip and current vaccinations.

How this pet arrived: Tuppance was brought in by her previous owner on November 22, 2024. Why this pet is the one for you:Meet Tuppance, the sweet and spirited companion you've been waiting for! This water-loving gal adores swimming and playtime and will happily join you on any adventure. Tuppance is potty-trained, crate-trained and ready to impress with her good manners. She will thrive in an calm household without young children (under 12), where she can be the center of attention as the only dog. Due to her energetic personality, she would do best in a home without cats or chickens. Tuppance adores attention and will happily soak up all the love you can give her.

Story
How this pet arrived: Ralphie was brought in by his previous owner on January 4, 2025. Why this pet is the one for you:Meet Ralphie, an adventurous and high-energy pup ready to be your ultimate companion! Whether it's hiking, running, or exploring new trails, he's always up for an adventure. Ralphie thrives in an active home that can channel his enthusiasm in positive ways. He can be selective with other dogs, so if he has a canine companion, they should be social and match his energy - be sure to bring them for a meet and greet! Due to his prey drive, he'll need a home without small pets, and because of his excitable nature, a household with children ages 12 years and over is required. If you're looking for a spirited sidekick to join you on all of life's adventures, Ralphie might be the perfect match! Come on down to meet this good looking boy for yourself. Be sure to bring a leash & a collar when you do so you can take him home today! Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 0 Age: 1yrs 3mths 0wks

Story
Meet Frankie Meet beautiful Frankie. Frankie needs a super active family who can continue to give him the DAILY exercise he needs in order to thrive. He loves high energy explosive sports like running, bikejoring, skijoring, agility, dog sledding, fetch, etc. Frankie needs a committed family who will continue his training and keep exposing him to new environments. Frankie is extremely loving and sweet. He loves other dogs and is good with all farm animals, but due to not getting the exercise and exposure he needed with his last family, he developed some resource guarding with other dogs when it comes to food and toys. At this time Frankie would be best as the only dog in the home, or he needs a family who FULLY understands the concept of separate feeding and is able to manage with toys, bones etc. He may do ok living with a female dog in the home, but would need time to build a relationship to work through the resource guarding. He is fully crate trained, potty trained, and incredibly well behaved in the house. He is non-destructive, very quiet, and settles great inside. He will make someone an amazing companion and is a potential sport prospect.

Meet your New Best Friend at an Adoption Event near you! Nico is thinking about coming to an adoption event near you very soon. If you’d like to learn more about this pup and their fluffy friends who are looking for their furever homes, check out our website: https://amazingdogs.org/available-dogs/ If you would like to reserve this doggie and have us bring them to the event of your choice for you to meet first, you can do so by paying a non-refundable deposit of $50 to our Venmo or Zelle account (619-918 2142 in the name of Amazing Dogs; pls indicate your telephone number). This deposit will go towards the adoption fee. After receipt of your deposit, we will confirm your reservation and list the doggie on our website as ‘Pending Adoption’. If you decide not to adopt one of our Amazing Dogs, the $50 is considered a compensation for the transportation costs. All our doggies come with their health record and have received all necessary medical care, which includes (but is not limited to) all vaccines, de-wormer, anti-flea/tick medication, microchip and of course spay/neuter surgery. Our adoption fee is $500. Only in California, the fee for babies under a year old is $600. Please consider this not as a price you pay for the doggie, but as a (tax-deductible) donation to our charity, so we can continue our work and take care of the 250+ dogs in our shelter. Read more about why we charge adoption fees here: https://amazingdogs.org/adoption-fees/ If you have any additional inquiries, please don't hesitate to reach out to us via call or text.
