Nala is 5 years old. I got her in San Antonio, TX when she was 12 weeks old from a family friend. She is a loving and playful dog. She likes to play but also relax as well. She does well with other dogs but is protective of her food at times from other dogs. Shes been a great friend but Im getting stationed over seas for the military and cant take her, nor have anyone available to take her. She is kennel and potty trained.

Story
Koda is a loving and energetic 3yr old collie Shepherd mix. He was couped up in a laundry room for months before landing in our care. He snuggles well, exceptional with verbal commands, and does not beg at the table. He struggles with barking and he does not chase cats, but I do not believe he is a fan. Great with kids 9+, but has shown territorial tendencies with younger kids. He currently needs to be let out often, but I believe this is a transitional behavior. He would love a fenced in yard with a doggy door.

Looking to rehome 8 mo German Shepherd. He is great with kids just very vocal which is the issue we’re experiencing. Goes in a crate at night and when we’re not home, very avid chewer! Has not destroyed furniture but children’s toys often become his if left unattended. Must be experienced with the breed, he requires a lot of mental and physical stimulation.

German Shepherd Dog

Story
Marla (born in April 2018) is an exquisite German Shepherd in search of a dedicated and patient owner. She dreams of finding a loving home that can offer her the stability she needs to conquer her fears and embark on a journey towards a brighter future! While Marla envisions a life as the center of attention in a new household, there is a possibility for her to adjust to living with other dogs given a proper introduction. She may feel anxious around dogs in general and would benefit from multiple visits with her potential adopter. To ensure Marla's peace of mind, it is recommended that she be placed in a child-free environment as young children and highly energetic dogs tend to overwhelm her. Additionally, a secure 6-foot fence is essential as she has the ability to effortlessly leap over a 4-foot fence. With a well-structured routine, positive reinforcement, and the guidance of a professional trainer, we firmly believe that Marla will flourish into a remarkable companion. If you feel that Marla could be the perfect fit for your family, please take the first step by completing an application to meet this endearing sweetheart! Adoptions for Marla are limited to the area within 50 miles of the Omaha/Council Bluffs area so the pet can continue to take advantage of free training from our certified positive reinforcement trainer. The suggested adoption donation for Marla is $250.  We are a 501c3 organization which means that your donation may be TAX DEDUCTIBLE. Your donation goes toward the high cost of veterinary care for our animals in rescue, as well as providing supportive services to animals in homes. Information about the adoption process: All adoptions require a completed ADOPTION APPLICATION. Once your application is approved, we will put you in touch with the dog’s foster to see if you and the pet are a good match. If so, we will arrange a meeting for you and the pet. The adoptions for all of our animals will take place in the Omaha, NE area and must be done by the adoptive family in person. We do not ship or deliver. Please Note: We are a RESCUE, which is different from a shelter. We conduct veterinary and personal reference checks during the application approval process. We always select the right applicant for each dog, based on the dog’s needs. If you and the dog are not a good match, we will help you select another dog, or we will keep your approved application on file for 6 months.
