Story
Kylie was found on the streets of Ontario protecting her sister Kendal. We brought her to our home so they would not be killed at the shelter. Kylie is so very sweet and is so proud of being the best sitter she can be. She is very receptive to training and loves to play with toys as much as she can. She has dominant behaviors which may be from litter syndrome with her sister so may do best with male dogs or on her own if she gets the time and commitment she needs. I am willing to work with her adopter to help with medical costs if needed as she will need up to date vaccines. Please help us find Kylie a second chance at life as soon as possible.

Story
Kendal was found on the streets of Ontario as a pup. She was brought into our home with her sister and is so very sweet. She loves to play fetch and eat bones all day. She has very high drive and loves to sit outside and watch the dogs from behind the pillars to make sure the don’t see her. She may have litter syndrome which is why we want to rehome her as soon as we can to give her the best chance at a better, trained life. She will need training as she is still a puppy and Vaccines and Spaying if needed but I am willing to work with her adopter to help with these costs if needed. Please help Kendal

Story
Fiona IS AVAILABLE (updated 01-04-2026). To meet any of our dogs, complete our online adoption application on our website: http://www.coastalgsr.org/dogs/fiona Fiona came to us with one of her pups. They were being given away 'free to good home' and were rescued by an animal lover who didn't want to see them land in the wrong hands! Fiona settled into the kennel life very easily and charmed her way into the hearts of all of the volunteers. She needed treatment for a cancerous tumor that she likely got when she became pregnant with her pups. The good news here is that she is done with her treatments and has been cancer free for over 6 months! Yay for Fiona! Fiona would love a home to call her own. She has been to obedience training, knows all her basic commands and walks well on a leash. She would do best in a home with older kids and no other dogs or cats. She loves car rides and would love an active lifestyle! If Fiona sounds like a fit for you, please let us know. We would love to chat with you about Fiona! 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.January 4, 2026, 5:30 am

Story
White German Shepherd Age: 4 years old He is fully trained and knows all basic commands. He is very friendly with people and has lived with us since he was a puppy. He can be sensitive around other dogs, but he is a wonderful companion and has great manners. The reason we need to rehome him is because our work schedule has become extremely busy. He spends long hours alone at home, and it has caused him to feel depressed and anxious. Sometimes, when we cannot return home on time, he may have accidents indoors. We love him very much, but we can no longer give him the time and daily companionship he needs. He deserves a home where someone has more time to be with him, play with him, and give him the attention he needs. He would do well with an active family or someone who can spend consistent time with him. We hope to find a caring adopter who understands German Shepherds and can provide a stable, loving home.

Story
Meet Holly, a young pup with a heart full of curiosity and sweetness. She's gentle as a breeze, yet playful as a squirrel in spring. She loves exploring her surroundings, sniffing out new scents and sounds. She's a smart girl and learns fast. She is even learning to ring a bell when she needs to go outside! She is a typical playful young dog who loves to chase balls and play with toys. She is crate and house trained. Holly would be such a great family dog who needs exercise and a solid routine. She does well with kids, because she is young, she is still learning not to be mouthy so will need continued direction with this. Adopting Holly means having a a companion that will give as much love as she gets in return.December 26, 2025, 6:01 pm
