His name means strength and that’s exactly what carried him through a broken leg, surgery, and a tough start. This approximately 4 to 5-year-old German Shepherd is healed, grateful, and ready for his forever family. 💛
Do you believe in the phrase “it takes a village”? Canyon is living proof of that. He came into the South LA shelter with a fractured front leg and no time left, he had to be rescued that very day or he wouldn’t make it out. Volunteers immediately knew he was special. Even from a quiet medical room where no one could see him, his gentle spirit shined through in a little video that moved hearts to action.
With no real plan but endless determination, his village came together to pull him, fund his surgery, and give him the chance he deserved. And what a gem he is! Even while in pain, Canyon melted the hearts of the surgeon and her staff, who all raved about his sweet, gentle soul.
His name couldn’t be more fitting. Canyon symbolizes strength, resilience, and beauty shaped by life’s challenges. That’s exactly who he is. Today, Canyon is thriving in his medical foster home, healing beautifully, and showing so much gratitude for his second chance. He is recovering next to another Shepherd with a fracture and they are enjoying each other's company.
We may never know how he was injured, but we do know this: Canyon is ready to love and be loved again. He is truly one of those rare dogs who remind us why we rescue. Now, all he needs is a forever family to call his own. Could that be you?

More about this rescue
Take Me Home (TMH) is a non-profit, volunteer-based organization that has been saving the lives of homeless animals for more than twelve years. We work in conjunction with shelters and rescues throughout California and beyond to help save dogs on death row, on the streets or in unsafe living conditions. Our team is driven by love, compassion and doing right by innocent animals who have no voice.
We are very skilled in running mobile dog adoptions and working with families in all aspects of finding their new family member. We also have an on-site trainer at most of our adoption events and available as a resource after our dogs are placed in loving homes.
All of our dogs are spayed or neutered, brought up-to-date on all shots and are micro-chipped. If we pull a dog from a shelter, we will quarantine him/her to ensure they are healthy before they go home. We also have an amazing foster program available for our special needs and older dogs.
As with any non-profit organization, we rely solely on funds from generous and cherished supporters to keep our doors open to save more lives. If you're not ready to adopt, please still consider donating to Take Me Home (www.takemehome.tv) today. Every little bit helps!
