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
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.

Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Ranger was given to us by a friend as a puppy. Our friend turned out to be allergic to dogs. Ranger is a very sweet dog, even being a German Shepherd. We were told that his parents were both police dogs. He is a great guard dog. He loves and protects our kids. Has never been violent and has never nipped at anyone. It has been a long process getting him to not chase the cats, (and getting the cats to not hiss at him), but the cats and him have mostly gotten used to each other. There is another adult German Shepherd at the house and Ranger gets along with her very well. It is sad to see him go, but Ranger seems to have some type of skin condition. We got him antibiotic treatment from the vet and that cleared it up. But it seems to be reoccurring. We would gladly invest more money in Ranger to get his health figured out for good, but our resources are limited. He deserves a great owner who would have the resources to care for him fully. He is a great dog for those passionate about GSD's.

Story
Due to personal and mental health reasons, I’ve made the difficult decision to return home to Guam to be with my family and get the support I need. As much as it pains me, I wont be able to take Bachoy with me, and I know i am no longer in a position to give him the time, energy, and care he deserves. Bachoy is a half German Shepard half Pitbull, 2 years old, and has been a loyal and loving companion. He is playful, good with kids, house trained. He is up to date on all vaccinations, not neutered. I am hoping to find someone or a family who can love and care for Bachoy as much as I have. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and for considering giving Bachoy a new beginning.

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs special attention, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
We adopted Laika at 3 month old from the San Diego Humane Society. She is a mini German Shepherd and is only about 25 to 26 pounds. She is 2 years old now and is a fun, lovable, shy pup. She is crate trained, and follows simple directions like sit and wait. She is protective and sweet and it does well with kids. Laika has anxiety and has trouble when outside around loud noises. Needs an experienced owner as she does have social anxiety. Not a huge adventure dog, but remains her kind self. Although we love Laika, she needs open space where she can run and fully have the opportunity to develop.
