My story

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

✨💙 Charming Channing – RESCUED but still searching 💙✨

Our sweet boy Channing (#A5723083) was saved from Downey ACC just in time, but his journey isn’t over yet. This gentle 1-year-old German Shepherd is now safe thanks to incredible rescuers and pledges—but he’s in urgent need of a new foster home or, even better, his forever family.

Channing is about 72 lbs of love and loyalty. He’s young, eager to learn, and full of hope after everything he’s endured. With the right person or family, he will truly shine.

🐾 Needs: Foster or Adopter
🐶 Age: 1 year | 72 lbs | Brown Male German Shepherd
🏡 Foster support provided | Adoption available anywhere in the USA with rescue backing

Every share, pledge, and lead helps change his life. Please help us keep this miracle going—Channing deserves a soft place to land and a forever home to call his own.

📩 If you can foster or adopt Charming Channing, please reach out today!

Additional adoption info

Into the Wild Farm Adoption Process

At Into the Wild Farm, we believe every animal deserves a safe, loving, and forever home. Our adoption process is designed to ensure the best match between each animal and their new family, while keeping the animal’s well-being as the top priority.

Step 1: Submit an Adoption Application

Interested adopters begin by filling out our detailed adoption application. This helps us learn more about your lifestyle, home environment, and experience with animals so we can make the best possible match.

Step 2: Application Review

Our team carefully reviews each application. We may reach out for additional information or clarification to ensure we understand your needs and expectations.

Step 3: Reference & Home Checks

To ensure a safe and stable placement, we conduct reference checks and, when necessary, a home visit (in-person or virtual). This helps us confirm that the environment is appropriate for the animal you wish to adopt.

Step 4: Meet & Greet

Once approved, we arrange a meet-and-greet with the animal. This step allows you, your family, and any current pets to interact with the animal in a safe and supportive environment.

Step 5: Adoption Agreement & Donation

If both sides feel it’s the right match, you’ll complete our adoption agreement, which outlines your responsibilities as an adopter. We ask for an adoption donation, which helps cover veterinary care, spay/neuter, vaccinations, microchipping, and other rescue costs.

Step 6: Bringing Your New Family Member Home

With everything finalized, your new companion is ready to go home! We provide transition tips and ongoing support to help make the adjustment as smooth as possible.

Step 7: Lifelong Support

Adoption doesn’t end when the paperwork is signed. We remain a resource for you and your adopted pet for life. If circumstances ever change, we require that the animal be returned to Into the Wild Farm so we can continue their journey to a safe home.
