Dakota is a shy, gentle young pup who’s still learning that the world and people can be kind. She may be timid when you first meet her, but with patience and a calm approach, she blossoms into a sweet, affectionate, and quietly devoted companion.
Dakota thrives in a peaceful, consistent home where she can move at her own pace. Once she feels safe, she’ll reward you with soft tail wags, gentle affection, and the kind of trust that feels truly special. She’s mellow by nature and enjoys cozy spaces, quiet companionship, and tagging along for low-key activities.
She would do best in a home without cats or young children and with someone who is home often, as she doesn’t enjoy being alone for long periods. Dakota isn’t looking for chaos, just patience, kindness, and a person willing to let her heart unfold in its own time.
If you believe in second chances and the beauty of earning a shy dog’s trust, Dakota may be your perfect match.

More about this rescue
Hope Ranch Animal Sanctuary is a non-profit organization; obtained our 501(c)3 in 2011 - ID #27-0810495
Located in Anza, CA
Kathy Haley had originally started as a rescue for abused and neglected large animals such as donkeys, llamas, alpacas, pigs, and more. At the time, she was also a volunteer at a dog rescue. After learning about the importance of rescue work, Kathy saw an opportunity to help by employing her own ideas about animal welfare, rescue and care taking the "whole animal," mind, body and spirit into consideration. A few years later, she met Lisa Ashe. Kathy and Lisa had so many ideas, dreams, and goals in common. They instantly clicked and that was when Hope Ranch Animal Sanctuary, a non-profit organization, was born in 2011 and have been going strong since.
At Hope Ranch Animal Sanctuary, we are dedicated to taking in abused, neglected, and euthanasia listed animals that deserve a second chance and need us the most.
All of our animals are:
Spayed/Neutered
Current on all vaccines
Rabies Vaccinated
Dewormed
Micro-chipped (lifetime registered & paid)
Received all proper medical care when needed (surgeries, dentals, medications, grooming, etc)
While many of our animals are sanctuary or "permanent residents", we do have lots of adoptable pets who are patiently waiting for their forever homes.
We are unique in the fact that our dogs do not live in kennels; instead they live with us in our home on about 5 acres of property located in Anza, CA or they are in foster homes in and around the Temecula, CA area. They have full access to our home and property and sleep inside with us at night.
This ensures that our pets are well adjusted and perfectly suited to become a part of your family.
Because the sanctuary is also our home, we do not have regular public visiting hours but we do have many visitors.
We just have to arrange it to fit the schedule of our animals, ourselves, and you.
