Story
Hi! I’m Titan and my favorite thing in the whole world is to go go go!! If there’s movement, adventure, or playtime happening, I’m already there. Probably bouncing on my paws and ready for the next thing. I love being close to my humans. Wherever you are, that’s where I want to be. Yard? Living room? Training time? I’m in. I’m happiest when we’re doing something together, especially playing. Tug, fetch, learning new stuff... yes please! Sometimes I get a little mouthy during playtime. It’s not mean, just my excited way of having fun, and with a little guidance I’m quick to figure out what’s okay. I’m super easy to train because I want to please and I like using my brain almost as much as my body. So far, I proudly know sit and shake, and I’m always ready to learn more. Give me a job, some play, and my people nearby, and I’m one very happy dog.

Story
I may be getting on in years, but I like to think I’ve aged into a fine old shepherd. A little slower on the legs, sure, but richer in wisdom and far more appreciative of the small joys in life. These days, nothing brings me more contentment than settling in with my people, letting the world quiet down around us. I’ve learned the art of calm. Oh, and treats. I enjoy them with the reverence of someone who knows each one is a gift: the crunch of a biscuit between my teeth, the gentle hand that offers it. I like to think my presence keeps the energy grounded. I’m not here to herd anymore, not in the old sense, but I still guide the mood of the home, reminding them to slow down, to take a moment, to just be. If my tail thumps a bit when they sit beside me that’s just my way of saying I’m happy right where I am. Growing older has its aches and limits, but it’s also given me this: a softer life, a calmer pace, and the company of the people I love. And for me, that’s more than enough.

Story
Phoenix is an incredible dog. If you have a family and youre looking for a safe dog for your children, she is the absolute best dog you can find. She loves snuggles, treats and cleaning up after her tiny humans meals as they drop food during meal time lol. We are moving across country to take care of my sick mom and unable to find a place we can afford that will accommodate dogs, and we simply won't have time to give them the walks and love they need in this diffucult season of our lives. We would love for Phoenix and Blue to be adopted together in an ideal world. They are both amazing dogs, potty trained, super friendly and so super smart. Her best friend Blue is a Husky/German Shepard his nickname is the monk, because he's just such a chill dude around our feisty 2 year old daughter lol. He puts up with so much, I know he'd be the best boy for a family that has the time and space for him and Phoenix.

Story
Hi there! I’m a lively shepherd who absolutely loves going on long walks! There’s just so much to sniff and explore out there! I get super excited whenever I hear the leash jingling because I know treats and adventure are coming my way. Speaking of treats, I’m a total foodie and always happy to earn a snack or two for being a good pup. When I’m home, you’ll find me chewing on my favorite toys or chasing after them like I’m on a mission. Just one thing... I’m not really into making friends with other dogs. I prefer to keep my circle small and focus on the humans I trust. But if you’re up for a fun walk and some playtime, I’m your dog!

Story
Hi there. I’m Willow. I’m a shepherd, and yeah, I’ve got a few spots where my fur’s a little thin. It’s okay, though; my people say I’m still handsome, and I think they’re right. I’m not the kind of dog who rushes up to everyone right away. I like to take my time.. sniff things out, watch, and make sure you’re safe and kind. Once I decide you’re a friend, though? Oh, you’ll have a shadow forever. I love leaning into people I trust, feeling their hands scratch behind my ears or rub my chest. That’s the best feeling in the world. Playtime is great too!! Tug toys, fetch, even a good roll in the grass. But I also love my naps. There’s something about curling up in a sunny spot or next to my person that makes me feel peaceful and happy.A nd snacks? Don’t even get me started on snacks. I’ll do just about anything for a crunchy treat or a piece of cheese. Life’s pretty simple when you think about it. A few good people, a soft place to rest, and something tasty to munch on. That’s all I need.

Story
Hi there! I’m Matcha! An older shepherd mix, but don’t let my age fool you... I still have plenty of spark in me. My favorite thing in the whole world? Tennis balls! I carry them around proudly like they’re my greatest treasures (because honestly, they are). You’ll often see me trotting around with one in my mouth, tail wagging, showing off my prized possession. But I don`t really want to share, so I`ll just take my tennis balls and lay down, do my own thing. I’ve learned a lot over the years; how to be patient, gentle, and grateful for the little things. I love treats and I’ll give you my best “good dog” eyes every time you open the treat bag. I may be a bit slower now, but I still enjoy a nice game of fetch, a cozy nap afterward, and quiet moments with my favorite humans. I’m loyal, calm, and full of love to give. All I need is a comfy spot to rest, a few tennis balls to call my own, and a person who’ll see the wonderful old soul that I am If you’re looking for a companion who’ll always be by your side I might just be the one for you.
