Story
Hi I'm Nika! I am an energetic, hyper, 9 year old german shepherd that just wants to be loved as much as I love you! I'm great around babies, toddlers, kids and teens. I have had no accidents with ANY of them! Does that get me a treat? Oooooh I love treats! Almost as much as I love cats, especially if they'll play with me! As for other dogs, I've only been around one other and we were best buddies! I might look big and intimidating but I'm still very much like a puppy. That's all I really know about myself right now. I can't wait to come home soon.

Story
Jake came to us from our friends who are going through a divorce. We were originally going to foster him until they were settled, however, they are not interested in taking him back into their new homes. Jake is a well-behaved, young pup with lots of energy and very curious. We have 2 small children and he loves to follow them around the house to watch over them and play with them when it is offered. Jake also loves to run around with our other 2 dogs and is always wanting them to wrestle and play with them. One of his favorite activities is running around outside and seeing what kind of other animals he can find such as rabbits and quail. Jake has received K9 training, so he knows most basic commands and is a very good listener. Jake is a great protector and always alerts us of a delivery being made or strange sounds outside.

Story
Meet Zyra – The Queen of Cuddles! With her sleek, shiny black coat and regal presence, Zyra is a true beauty who turns heads wherever she goes. This stunning 3-year-old Lab/Shepherd mix is as sweet as they come! She adores rolling around in the grass, soaking up belly rubs, and showing off her gentle, loving personality. Zyra is great with big dogs and has been non-reactive to small ones so far, though she hasn’t had the chance to officially meet them yet. She’s still building confidence in new situations but is doing well on a leash and is calm for car rides! She’s both crate-trained and doggy door savvy, and best of all—she’s non-destructive. She has her bursts of playful energy but knows when to settle down and relax. Zyra’s journey hasn’t been the easiest—her original owner abandoned her, and the kind person who stepped up to care for her could no longer keep her. Now, she’s ready for a forever home where she’ll be cherished like the queen she is. Zyra is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped—ready to bring love and loyalty into your life. Could you be the one to give this gorgeous girl her final happily ever after?
