Story
Lucy is the best dog. She is loyal to her humans. So good with kids and small animals. We have had her a few years and despite my two young daughters rough housing she has never even growled in their direction. This is a lot since i’m pretty sure she’s had her tail accidenrly stepped on! Our family adopted her at about age 6 so we guess that she’s about 8 now. We are a busy family with two full time working parents. Recently, Lucy has show high anxiety when not around her humans. We just aren’t home enough to interact with her and we feel that she has behavioral issues because of this. If she has access to outside she will dig. She also has frequent panic attacks where she will start panting for no apparent reason. The vet has ruled out any health issues. Says that it seems to be behavoral. We have her on prozac. That helps a bit but we just really feel she needs a home where she can be given the attention and love she deserves! Please play tug of war with Lucy!

Story
Hi, I'm Maple! Maple is a sweet German Shepherd/Australian Shepherd mix around 6 years old. I love to cuddle and be around my people. I know basic commands like sit, lay and shake. I love treats and very motivated when you use them with me. Essentially, I love doing tricks for treats. I'm smart so I am housebroken and I tell my foster parents when I need to go out. I love looking out the window at cars going by on the street. I get along well with other dogs my size and may not bowl you over with love and kisses immediately when I meet you but I definitely will once I know you a little bit more. Once I know you I won't want to leave your side and will be your most loyal friend. I love going for walks to smell all the new smells. I really would be a great addition to any family, I just want to live out my latter part of my life with a loving family! Maple is up for adoption with A Wish for Animals- based in California. Adoption fees cover transport, spay/neutering, and up to date vaccines. Please see the attached website to fill out an adoption application for our sweet girl. www.awishforanimals.org    Interested in adopting this pet?

Story
Grizzly is a seven year old female German Shepard mix. She is loving, friendly and sweet with all adults and children. She has quite a bit of energy and loves to howl when she gets excited! She is great indoors, as she is potty trained and doesn’t chew on things or bark. Unfortunately, she is not friendly with other animals (dogs and cats). She has severe separation anxiety and needs to be kenneled when left alone.    She really loves to be around people! She would be great in a home where she isn’t alone most of the time and has a backyard for her to run around. She is a bit of an escape artist, so the backyard needs to be secure.  Interested in adopting this pet? Please contact us at questions@awishforanimals.org for more info.November 6, 2024, 5:40 am

Meet Everest! He's a sweet, smart and playful White Shepherd mix a little over a year old! He’s a little shy at first but he warms up to new people quickly. He loves being around and getting attention from his people. He’s crate trained, knows sit, paw, down  and walks well on the leash. He is not good with cats and would do best in a home without any. He plays well with other dogs and would love a fur friend in his forever home. He also loves playing fetch and loves to run around, he would be a great running partner! When he’s not playing/running he enjoys napping on various types of beds around the house. He would also make a great guard dog. He would make a great addition to any active family and can’t wait to find his forever home. Interested in adopting this pet?

Story
Hello, my name is Scout! I am a 6-year-old, 55lbs, Female, German Shepard/Terrier Mix in need of a new home. I am an incredibly affectionate dog with an energetic personality. I have a strong curiosity about the world and love to play outside, but I also love to cuddle up to people on a couch when I am tired. I am looking for a home with a fenced in yard and no other pets or small children. I am quick to trust humans, and, once I feel comfortable, I will develop a strong sense of loyalty to my owners. My owners originally adopted me from the humane society in 2019 after I was brought in as a stray. I am spayed, house trained, microchipped, fully vaccinated, and in perfect health. I am a sweet and loving dog, but I am looking for the right owner who has more time to take me on walks, hike, and more.  Scout can’t wait to meet you!!Interested in adopting this pet?
