My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

***FOSTER OR ADOPT***


Shep is a stunning shepherd mix who at 9 years old, has the heart of a playful pup. He is a goof who loves toys, treats and belly rubs and is full of life, affection, and tail wags. Shep is currently struggling with the stress of kennel life and really needs a calm, loving home where he can decompress. He would flourish in the quiet and attention available in a home. For that reason, he is available to foster as well as adopt.


Shep weighs 68 lbs but not to worry. This more mature gent has good manners, doesn't jump, and takes treats gently. He is really sweet, listens well and pretty low energy for the most part. Check out the video in his profile where you can see more of his personality. Our volunteers took him out for a nice walk and got a glimpse of the amazing dog he truly is. He also went on a day out of the kennel at a fabulous sniffspot and boy, did he have a great time! He loves to swim and he pretty much ignored the dogs around him. He is a different dog away from the kennel. Check out this fabulous video of his day out!! Won't you give this mature guy a chance?

Shep can be picky about his doggy friends so if you have a dog in the home, bring them to meet n greet to see if there are get 8 paws up. He gets barky around the kennel but when he is out and about he is well behaved around other dogs.


Foster or adopt this sweet boy and help him become the happy, relaxed companion hes meant to be. If you think a handsome boy that is past that frenetic stage could be for you , apply at www.caninecollective.org.

https://caninecollective.org/adoption-application/

Our adoption process takes several steps and cannot be completed in one day. All of our volunteers work full time and assist the rescue in their spare time. Please allow 2-3 business days for a response.

* Applicants must be willing to make a ten plus year commitment to their new family member.

* Applicants must commit to daily exercise, walks, trips to the dog park or play in the back yard. A well exercised dog is a happy well behaved dog!

* Applicants living in a rental property must provide proof of pet policy from landlord.

* Applicants must provide a veterinarian reference and if there are existing dogs in the household. All pets must be spayed/neutered and current on all shots and heartworm medication.

*Please allow at least a 7-14 day adjustment period for your new dog. Rescue dogs go thru a lot of changes and need a few days to get used to their new surroundings and adjust. Adopting a dog should be a serious commitment, so please be willing to work out the kinks. Our dogs aren't perfect but with proper training and guidance they make awesome, loving pets.

*Our adoption fees vary based on the age and medical needs of the dogs.
