Story
Meet Fables — a gentle soul with a story worth telling. Fables came to us after being found on HWY A-12, bravely wandering alongside two younger puppies who looked to her for guidance. Even in the toughest moments, she stayed patient and protective. Since arriving at the ranch, she’s shown us exactly who she is: a quiet hero with a heart full of love. This sweet girl gets along wonderfully with other dogs and has a soft spot for playful pups. With people, she starts off a little shy — but once she trusts you, she blossoms. Fables just needs someone willing to move at her pace, offer kindness, and show her she’s finally safe. Her absolute favorite thing in the world? Walks. The moment you pick up the leash, she lights up, wagging her whole body with joy. Out on the trail, she becomes her best self: confident, curious, and genuinely happy. Fables is a medium-energy rescue dog who would thrive with a patient, understanding handler who can help her continue to build confidence. She’s the type of dog who will reward your compassion tenfold — with loyalty, gratitude, and those full-body wags that make every day brighter. If Fables sounds like the kind of dog you’d love to welcome into your heart and home, give the ranch a call today. She’s ready for her next chapter… she just needs someone willing to turn the page with her. Thank you for considering adopting a Rescue Ranch dog.

Rescue Ranch puppies are raised through our puppy foster program. They will have met adults, children, often other dogs, maybe cats. 16-week or older puppies will have taken part in our "Reading to Rescue Pups" program and attended many events. When they are at least 8 weeks old, puppies are given a wellness exam by a licensed veterinarian.  Before going home, all puppies will have been dewormed and received all age-appropriate vaccinations for parvo/distemper, and Bordetella. If they are 4 months or older they will also have their rabies vaccination. All p uppies are also microchipped and registered with  911PetChip . We require spay/neutering of puppies at 6-8 months old (or the appropriate age for giant breeds)  by our veterinarian. The procedure is covered by the adoption fee. Alternatively, adopters can choose to have the procedure done by their own vet (proof required),  and a portion of the cost will be refunded.    All of our dogs receive the best in veterinary care and are spay/neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative, and fully vaccinated.  The standard adoption donation fee for all dogs and puppies is $300 (unless a reduced fee applies )  APPLY NOW       March 7, 2026, 12:07 pm

Story
Meet Jenna – Your Gentle Guardian Angel Jenna is a sweet, gentle soul looking for a calm, loving home to call her own. This lovely girl enjoys the best of both worlds—snuggling indoors with her people and spending time outside quietly keeping an eye on her surroundings. She arrived at the Ranch with her beloved momma, Callie, and the two shared a very special bond. Jenna is friendly and affectionate with new people, though she can feel a bit overwhelmed in busy or loud environments. Because of this, she would thrive best in a quieter home where she can relax, feel secure, and truly blossom. Her calm presence has even made her a pet therapy star, bringing comfort and peace to seniors in serene settings. Though a bit shy at first, she warmed up quickly and clearly enjoyed the experience of making others feel at ease. She walks beautifully on a leash and is learning basic cues like “Sit” and “Down.” Jenna is eager to please, and her mellow nature means she doesn’t need extensive training—just gentle guidance, consistency, and encouragement. Like many large guardian-type dogs, Jenna does have some food-related resource guarding, which is common for her type and very manageable with respectful feeding routines and clear boundaries. In foster care, Jenna was introduced to cats, turkeys, and chickens. While on leash, she showed calm curiosity and appropriate behavior, allowing them to move around her without concern. Off leash, she did display some chase instinct, so she will do best in a home that understands the importance of leash use, supervision, and secure spaces when around cats or poultry. With thoughtful management and consistency, Jenna continues to grow in confidence and stability. If you’re looking for a loving, loyal companion with a soft heart, a steady presence, and a deep appreciation for peaceful moments, Jenna may be your perfect match. Call the Ranch to schedule a meet-and-greet with Jenna today! Read Jenna's Dog of the Week post here: https://rrdog.org/dw/meet-jenna/ Thank you for considering adopting a Rescue Ranch dog.

Meet Aphrodite - A Gentle Heart Waiting to Belong  Aphrodite may be named after the goddess of love, and once you meet her, you'll understand why. She's a sweet, submissive, and gentle girl who's never known a real home - but dreams of one every day.  Born in late 2024 and raised, almost entirely in shelter walls, Aphrodite has missed out on the warmth and comfort of a family - yet she still greets the world with curiosity, kindness, and quiet hope. She might be shy at first, but once she knows she's safe, she'll melt into you with soft affection... or surprise you with her signature army crawl of joy when she gets excited. What Makes Aphrodite Special: - She loves all dogs - big, small, young, old - and does best in homes with canine companionship - She's so well-behaved and socially smart, she's often used to temperament test new dogs at the shelter - She does beautifully with cats, too - She adores car rides and peacefully watches the world go by through the window - She finds joy in water play, nature walks, and quiet moments with her people - She thrives in calm homes where she can continue to build her confidence at her own pace  - She's participated in a "Reading to Rescue Dogs" program, where young children sit and read books to her - and she listens with the sweetest, most patient heart Aphrodite is the kind of dog whose quiet strength leaves a lasting impression. She's been a helper, a friend, a source of comfort - now she's ready to be someone's family. All she needs is a gentle place to land, a dog buddy to lean on, and humans who will give her the time and love she's waited patiently for.  If your home is peaceful, your heart is kind, and your dog is looking for a friend, Aphrodite is ready to fill your world with quiet love and soft loyalty. Come meet the girl who has been waiting her whole life to be chosen.  Thank you for considering adopting a Rescue Ranch dog.
