Story
Jack is a loving and smart boy! He survived being hit by a car, suffering two broken legs, but is the fastest little man you know. He enjoys life to the fullest playing and running in the yard with his foster family including their 3 dogs & 2 kids. He is receiving physical therapy as well as adequan therapy, and both his legs are gaining mobility, he may never have full use of his back legs, but he gets around so well already and still has therapy to undergo! He is a dog that will need some special care for a bit, but he will repay with loving kisses and cuddles. He is very smart and easy to manage. We would love for someone to foster to adopt him, so they can fall in love, or an adoption if you're sure he's a fit! Jack is house trained, has a microchip already, is fixed, fully vaccinated and has his adequan and physical therapy covered through yoga animals rescue foundation! If you're looking for a special life guy to brighten up your day Jack is your boy!October 10, 2024, 12:17 am

Story
Gracie is a super sweet, friendly, loving girl who is having so much fun in the snow. Her brindle markings are beautiful and her coat is so soft. She loves cuddling on the couch, is becoming more adventurous playing with her foster brothers, and loves zooming around the backyard in the snow. Gracie is very curious and is gaining more confidence seeking out pets, ear scratches, and love from the family. She quickly found her favorite spot on the couch for watching TV and just chills, either chewing on a bone, napping or watching what everyone is doing. She is a very smart girl and quickly learned to use the doggie door to play as much as she wants in the snow. She is fully potty-trained and crate-trained, sleeping well through the night, and sometimes just hangs in there. She enjoys walks and does well on the leash while checking out the neighborhood. Even though Gracie has done great being around the other dogs in the house, her confidence and reassurance will grow quickly being an only dog for a bit until she is sure she is safe and no one is going to take her bones, bed, and toys away. She deserves to be spoiled and get lots of attention. ##2284295##

Timber is excited to spend his retirement years as your one and only! He can be insecure around new dogs, so HSBV is requiring he be the only pet in his new home. He adores his people and greets them with a smile and wiggle. Due to his tender personality, HSBV will only rehome him to a family with children aged 10 and older. Come meet this lovely boy today!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. AdoptaGSD.org   Please consider that some of these dogs have been abandoned or ignored by their previous owners, having little interaction with someone who cares about them. When adopted, they will need time to adjust to the changes in their life. Hi, my name is Winnie, and I'm a beautiful three year old female Dutch Shepherd who was recently returned to FRGSR after I was left unsupervised for long periods of time, and I managed to get into mischief with the neighbors' dogs and chickens. Since returning to my former foster home, I've fallen back into my old routine of playing with the resident male Malinois, going for long walks and cuddling with my humans. While on walks, my foster mom and dad have not observed me to be inappropriate around other dogs or people. My breed is a working breed, and I need a strong leader who will provide me with clear boundaries and both daily mental and physical stimulation. I need to know what my job is and I would prefer to have an adopter who isn't gone all day. I'm crate trained and I walk beautifully on leash, but I also wouldn't mind being someone's running partner. In my foster home, I'm relaxed and friendly because I know they are my leaders and I focus on being a dog. I love to play in the snow with my foster brother! I can get a little possessive of my toys and my foster parents are working on this. If you feel you can meet my needs, please submit an online application at adoptagsd.org. My adoption fee is $400.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet. Although we do our best to keep our adoptable animals page as current as possible,the animals you see may already be in an adoption process.   January 13, 2025, 11:09 am

Story
Happy is one of those types of dogs that continues to view life as the glass half full. This pup joined MHCR a couple months ago at around 6-7 months of age. She found herself on death row in Texas at a high intake/high kill shelter. Once Happy got settled into foster care, it became very apparent she had sustained quite a bit of trauma in her life prior to rescue. Happy sustained a traumatic injury to her back leg as a young pup that had fully healed before she got to us. This injury possibly involved the growth plate, which has resulted in the leg being a little bit shorter than her other leg. Luckily, the orthopedic surgeons she has seen feel she is just about fully grown so this leg shouldn’t pose too large of a problem. After she had settled in for a couple of weeks, we noticed she was painful and limping on her front legs. More work up revealed she had a fractured coronoid process. What the heck is that? It’s a tiny little piece of the elbow. Happy had surgery for this and she’s recovering beautifully! Happy has many shepherd-like characteristics and the brindle in her coat lead us to believe she is a Dutch Shepherd mix. She’s very smart, eager to please, affectionate, and loyal. Happy is petite at 42 lbs! She rides beautifully in the car, eats her meals in her crate, is house trained and enjoys days at the office with her foster mom. Happy is dog friendly after a proper intro. She particularly likes the Belgian Malinois she’s in foster with. She’s best suited with a derpy, playful, confident personality type canine companion. However, she’d be perfectly content as an only dog, as well. Happy LOVES stuffie toys and will blissfully surround herself with her favorites and quietly entertain herself. Due to her orthopedic issues since joining our care, Happy hasn’t spent much time mastering her leash skills. Happy is in foster in Fort Collins, Colorado. *We require all adopters to come to Colorado to adopt. *We do not transport dogs. * You can view this wonderful dog at https://www.milehighcanine.org/post/dogs/happy You can apply for our wonderful dogs at https://www.milehighcanine.org/adopt/adoption-application/.

Story
My name is Dana I am almost two. I was adopted a couple summers ago, but my older sister has started picking fights with me, so my dad wants me to live somewhere safer for me. I am a very smart german shepherd cross. I have learned how to open the back door by myself and to get out of any chain link fence by opening the gate. I need a home where I can fulfill my active lifestyle. I am a very active girl and enjoy running around and wrestling with my siblings. I currently live with my older sister and a dachshund brother. I like to play, and have a rowdy playstyle, so would be best matched with another dog that appreciates that! I am very smart and have learned how to sit and stay. I look forward to meeting you and hoping you can teach me new and wonderful things. If you're interested in meeting me please fill out an application at www.thegooddogrescue.org (If you already have an approved application, please email thegooddogrescueadoptions@gmail.com with your interest in me!) My adoption fee is $300 and I am spayed, microchipped and up to date on vaccinations ##1745197##

Story
Hi my name is Ranger. I'm a sweet and shy boy looking for a patient and loving family. I am looking for a home that will give me plenty of exercise (a job!), continue my training and socialization, and spend plenty of time with me. I tend to prefer females but warm up to males in a short amount of time. And hopefully a home with another social playful dog!  I'm house trained, use the doggie door, walk nicely on leash, enjoy car rides, and am learning to play with toys! I have learned to sit for treats, and will sometimes follow you around and sit everytime you stop, hoping you will give me some!  If you're interested in meeting me please fill out an application at www.thegooddogrescue.org (If you already have an approved application, please email thegooddogrescueadoptions@gmail.com with your interest in me!) My adoption fee is $300 and I am neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccinations ##2251797##
