Story
Hi, I am Meeko, and I just might be the perfect match for you.  I am a loyal, 8 year old, 62 pound pup looking for my forever home.  Here is what my foster says about me!  Meeko bonds easily to one person and craves closeness to that person.  She loves attention and affection, but when it comes to food, look out, given a choice between food and her person, food comes first so be mindful of food left out!  Her activities include at least two easy daily walks, car rides where she can put her nose out the window to do sniffing, settling in with family, napping, watching TV and just relaxing.  While outside, she will chase small animals, and other dogs, if given the opportunity.  Lastly she so wants to be with her person that she has a hard time being left alone and likes it best when her family is settled and she can relax.   Meeko would benefit from having an experienced adopter who is able to spend time with her and provide her with the leadership she sometimes needs.  In summation, Meeko is looking for a moderate to active home, and is a precious dog who is sure to bring her new family lots of warmth and love.  ##1915683##

Story
Kaia is a sweet, nine-year-old German Shepherd with a mellow, easy-going temperament and a heart full of love. She’s the ideal companion for a quiet home where she can relax and enjoy her peaceful surroundings. Though she loves having her people around, she’s comfortable napping alone when left at home. When she catches the scent of treats, though, she’s happy to get up and join the fun! Kaia does well in the car and enjoys peeking out the window, especially when there are new sights and smells to explore.Kaia is incredibly gentle and friendly, winning over hearts with her calm, affectionate nature. Kaia walks well on a leash and doesn’t pull, especially when it’s just her and her handler. While she may get excited and pull toward other dogs to say hello, she responds well to redirection and is learning commands like "look at me" to stay focused. When meeting other dogs, Kaia may get a bit excited, but with a calm and structured introduction, she’s comfortable around them after a day or two. She’d likely do best with a dog sibling who’s polite and has good manners, as Kaia mostly enjoys napping when other dogs are around and appreciates a calm, respectful companion.She thrives with gentle activities like sniffing, exploring, and using her favorite snuffle mat to forage for treats, which is her favorite way to “play.” Kaia is crate-trained and well-behaved at home, and she doesn’t mind a good bath or grooming session. If you’re looking for a loyal, gentle soul to welcome into your life, Kaia could be the perfect fit. ##2137810##

Story
Hi Prospective Adopters!  My name is MacKenzie T, a name I really like.  However, if you prefer you can call me Mac for short.  I am a male German Shepherd weighing about 52 lbs, and the shelter said I was 11 years old.  I still have lots of energy and since I am on a medical regimen to help my arthritis and pain issues, I am acting more like an 8 year old which turns out to be my estimated true age.  Well, OK, short walks are best for me and I do have some difficulty with stairs, but I am still a bouncy, friendly boy, good in the car, social, and pleasantly vocal.  Something I am proud of is that I am quick to learn, well behaved with large dogs and older kids.  Because I have lots of energy, I do tend to pull on the leash and can be reactive to other dogs and people depending on the situation.  I get very excited when people come to see me, especially at meal time, and will often try to jump on them.  I am slowly learning to control this behavior but I need to keep working on this.  I welcome a structured lifestyle where I know what is expected of me.  I have a zest for life even though I was found as a stray with no home to call my own.  We agree with MacKenzie!  Mac is a dog that will sweep you off your feet with his energic, friendly and loving nature.  Whoever takes him home, his caring and gratitude will always be present.  What a wonderful dog he is! ##2148094##

Story
Odin is a beautiful young adult male Shepherd mix who desperately needs a new home (foster or adopt). He is dog friendly and has lived with large dogs of all ages; he’s playful with younger pups and respectful of older dogs. He would be fine as an only dog but would be happy to have a medium to large breed canine sibling to play with. Odin bonds quickly, so he prefers that you are home for at least part of the day. He is an expert snuggler and would love to be by your side at night, warming your heart and showering you with kisses. His ideal home: no cats, no young kids (middle school or older are ok), a large yard, a quieter suburban or rural setting. As with any young dog, he needs someone who can work with him daily on basic obedience. He is smart and food motivated, so that is a big plus for training! Odin is currently located in Southern California, but don't let that stop you from applying for him.   ##1673221##

Story
Hello, my name is Mallory and I would like to start out by describing myself as a healthy, strong, seven year old female. I get along with humans and dogs alike (not sure about cats), am house-trained and know lots of commands.  I like walks; however, if I see a squirrel, or another moving object, I may pull on the leash, but after all I am a dog with lots of energy; and this is my nature.  My adoptive owner should know that I need a strong, athletic leader. to guide me becuase I am confident and can be assertive. The best part of me is that I am friendly, social, well-adjusted and you can count on me to be a people pleaser, friendly and who will seek out attention even though I can be somewhat aloof. All in all I will be on my best behavior if my owner lets me know who is the boss and who enjoys allowing my strong and athletic side to flourish.  ##2159876##

Story
Redding is a handsome boy who requires a home that can help establish boundaries for him. Redding is house-trained and enjoys car rides, playing fetch, and playing in the water. He is also a regular in the shelter playgroups and does well with other dogs. Redding is a working dog who will benefit greatly from training and a savvy adopter or foster. He is two years old and is likely a Shepherd/Husky mix. Please help us save Redding by sharing his story. Observation comments: It takes time to familiarize and gain trust, so a slow introduction is recommended. This animal requires an experienced handler. It does not do well with sudden human approaches from all directions during the first meet-and-greet. Summary: Due to its size and strength, kids need to be supervised around the dog. This animal requires some space for himself, so do not approach without permission from the animal. Attempting to socialize with this animal is safe at a short distance away without constant, straight eye contact. If this animal acknowledges you, he will approach you naturally and accept your invitation. Once that happens, you will be his best buddy for life! Redding has a hit-or-miss personality. His German Shepherd is a bit picky, but he plays well in the boarding facility playgroup and has been tested at our partnered local boarding club. His personality will change with a calm, quiet, loving home over time.

Story
Nina is an active 2yo 45lb border collie/german shepherd mix. She has a lot of personality and can be a total derp (tongue hanging out sideways and everything)! She's housebroken and crate trained, and walks amazing on the leash! She loves other dogs and is good with indoor cats. She is pretty high energy and enjoys going on hikes and playing with her canine siblings. She MUST go to a home where there is a resident confident adult medium-large dog (she worships the male german shepherd in her foster home but is best friends with a female Doberman the same age.. she's fine with small dogs but she's a bit too rambunctious for them). She has also discovered the comforts of the couch and loves to lay along the top and get petted while you watch movies. Because she can still be skittish with people though, she should NOT go to a home with children or apartment living (no exceptions!). She would do best in a gentle, quiet adult only home with another dog and a house with fenced yard. She has gained a lot of skills and confidence while in her foster home, but she is ready for the next chapter in her life with a new family that will continue to help her grow. Here is Nina’s story video: https://youtu.be/KxWGwurZVWk King is Nina’s companion/emotional support dog. He’s a 7-8yo purebred 75lb German Shepherd. Nina WORSHIPS him and is his shadow, follows him everywhere, and they even crate together. King is a mellow boy who prefers lounging in the house or on the couch. He would do best in a cat-free home.  They are not for first time dog owner, but when together they’re pretty easy. All they need is a couch and a yard.  Adoption fee for the two together will be $550. Nina can also be adopted by herself without King, however, we are requiring she go to a home that has another resident dog, and that she goes with a pal pup (either King or another known friend) for the first week during the transition phase, so that she doesn’t panic in a new home.

Story
Sadie is a loyal ~2yo spayed 55 pound active small German Shepherd. She loves lots of affection, long walks and playing with her toys. She is a moderate energy dog, playful and active but also settles down nicely indoors by your feet. She is housetrained and sleeps in a crate.  She will need an active home that will keep her mentally and physically busy. She will chase cats that run. She needs proper intro to new dogs.   She is undersocialized and also needs continued training and structure. She needs continued socializing with other dogs and people (reactive in public). She would do best in a home with German Shepherd experience, as she can be insecure and also defensive/protective. She would do best with a single woman, or will need experienced handlers in a multi ADULT home (NO CHILDREN) who will be willing to commit to working on her socialization. NO APARTMENTS!
