Story
Hello..this is Sarge. He was rescued along with his brothers and sisters from an abusive situation. We took him in temporarily in the hopes he would find his furever home.. He is very sweet and like to sit next to you. He does require a bit of attention and definitely needs a home where he will be walked daily and allowed to run around. He is house trained. He uses the doggy door. He is good with kids as well... Our situation has changed and we are moving out of our house with a big backyard to a small condo with only a balcony..

Story
Jabari is looking for a new home with an experienced owner. She is incredibly sweet with adults and can do well with older kids, but she can be a little rough with younger children. She needs to be the only pet in the home, as she does not get along with other dogs. I’m unsure how she is with cats. This decision has not been easy for me at all, but I’m moving and unfortunately can’t bring her with me. I also can’t give her the space and time she truly deserves anymore. Jabari loves her walks, hiking in the mountains, beach days, and absolutely loves the water, she has zero fear when it comes to swimming. No dog parks for this girl, as she does not do well with other dogs, but she thrives one-on-one with her person. She has the sweetest, quirkiest personality and always wants to be near you. She’s not the biggest cuddler, but she definitely has her moments. I adopted her when she was 4 months old, and she truly changed my life for the better. She’s the sweetest dog I’ve ever had, an

Story
Belladonna IS AVAILABLE (updated 06-07-2026). To meet any of our dogs, complete our online adoption application on our website: http://www.coastalgsr.org/dogs/belladonna Meet Belladonna — a stunning Belgian Malinois beauty with brains, athleticism, and personality to spare. At 2â€Âׂ years old, this smart girl is the total package: affectionate, playful, fiercely intelligent, and always ready for action. Whether she’s chasing a ball, showing off her zoomies, or learning something new for treats, Belladonna brings enthusiasm to everything she does. Like a true Malinois, Belladonna is highly energetic with a strong prey drive, so lizards and birds keep her attention on walks! She already knows her basic commands — sit, down-stay, and come — and she’s crate trained, sleeping quietly through the night like a pro. It’s not known yet how Belladonna interacts with other dogs, cats or children. Belladonna’s story could have ended differently. Surrendered by her family during a move, she landed in a high-kill shelter in Downey and was placed on the euthanasia list. Thankfully, a dedicated rescuer stepped in with the support of Coastal German Shepherd Rescue to give this incredible girl the second chance she deserved. Belladonna is looking for an active, experienced home that understands the Malinois breed and can keep both her body and brilliant mind engaged. Agility, hiking, advanced training, sporting activities — she’s ready for it all. In return, she’ll give her person unwavering loyalty, endless fun, and a bond like no other. The minimum adoption donation is $375 for adults and $500 for puppies. This helps cover vet care, boarding fees, and other expenses. All dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped.June 7, 2026, 5:08 am

Story
This cutie is Snoop. He was found roaming the streets of Compton, after he was dumped. He is approximately 40 pounds and is 1.5 years old. Snoop is a little bashful but will warm up after a couple minutes. He enjoys playing with other dogs and romping around the yard. His ideal home will be with a family that is familiar with working breed dogs and will continue to work on building his confidence.

Story
Sweet Elle was rescued just hours before she was to be killed for space at Downey Shelter.  Elle is a sweet girl with lots of energy and an eagerness to please and learn from her owner/handler.  Elle was emaciated when we rescued her and is currently at 54 pounds, but I still think she should gain a few more.  Elle is house trained and crate trained and knows sit well.  Elle is also good walking on a leash, but needs a little more work on pulling.  Elle gets along great with other dogs, but does need a day or two to acclimate to a new one.  She is good with little dogs, but tends to play rough, so a bigger young dog to play with and keep her company would be wonderful for her.  Elle is now spayed, up to date on all vaccinations (including rabies), and microchipped.  Elle does have a very small umbilical hernia that we will have fixed when and if she ever has to undergo anesthesia again (maybe for a dental in future, etc).  We just do not want to put her under again for something unnecessary.  Elle's adoption donation is $450.  If you have any further questions, please call Krissy at (949) 456-7032 or to fill out an application, visit www.greendogfoundation.org.  Thank you for looking to rescue!June 5, 2026, 12:08 am

Story
I can't say enough good things about Buddy.  I wish I could keep him.  This poor boy was dumped off the side of a desolite highway in the mountains in the early morning hours along with his dog house.  A friend found him hiding in the bushes and brought him to our rescue.  When I first saw him, I thought "oh my, he's going to eat my dogs"...turns out that Buddy is one of the most sweetest dogs I've ever rescued.  He loves the other dogs and ESPECIALLY little puppies.  I have a bottle baby that he sleeps next to making sure no other dogs bother him.  He cleans him and loves on him.  I'm attaching a video of him along with two other little puppies we have.  Buddy is housetrained, crate trained and extremely obedient.  He also loves to cuddle next to me at night.  Buddy is now neutered, fully vaccinated (rabies included), received a dental and is microchipped and we just got back DNA on Buddy!  Buddy is 39% American Bully, 25% German Shepherd,  19% Pit Bull Terrier and 17% Siberian Husky.   Buddy's adoption fee is $450.  To fill out an application for Buddy, please visit www.greendogfoundation.org or for more information, please email us at greendogfoundation@gmail.comMarch 8, 2026, 1:58 pm
