My story

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

Titanium is a 5-year-old German Shepherd with a heart that’s somehow stayed soft through everything she’s been through. From the moment she arrived, she’s shown nothing but gentleness — leaning her whole body into any kindness offered, trusting strangers with this quiet hope that breaks your heart a little.

Right now, she’s overwhelmed. She’s hurting. And she’s trying her very best to stay brave in a loud, unfamiliar place.

Titanium has an old leg injury that never healed the way it should. The only way for her to finally live without pain is an amputation — and that surgery is coming soon. What she needs most now is a calm, loving foster home where she can recover safely, quietly, and surrounded by compassion.

Shelter life is no place for a dog trying to heal from such a major surgery. She needs steady routines instead of chaos, gentle hands she can trust.

Titanium is the kind of dog who gives back every bit of love she receives. She warms up quickly, she listens, she tries, and she absolutely melts into affection once she feels safe. She deserves to recover somewhere peaceful.

If you’ve ever considered fostering or adopting, now is the moment. Titanium needs someone willing to open their home and heart so she can heal the right way.

Come meet her.
Look into those eyes.
You’ll understand immediately why she deserves this chance.
