Story
Athena IS AVAILABLE (updated 03-06-2026). To meet any of our dogs, complete our online adoption application on our website: http://www.coastalgsr.org/dogs/athena-1 Athena is a petite princess who is 4 years old. This sweet little girl should have had a fairy tale life based on what her adoptive family told us when they selected her as a puppy. She went home with the family when she was two months old. The family had a house, children, and another Malinois. However, at the end of 2025, Coastal GSR received an email from a shelter letting us know that they found Athena roaming around as a stray. When we tried to find her family, it was like they vanished from the face of the earth. The house was sold, the people were gone, and no one was missing Athena. Athena came back to Coastal GSR and re-joined our family. A family that would never give up on her. She is still a bit bewildered about what happened to her but she has been settling in and enjoying walks and ball playing with our volunteers. 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.March 6, 2026, 5:25 am

Fiona IS AVAILABLE (updated 03-06-2026). 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.March 6, 2026, 5:25 am

Story
I found this little girl on the streets with a homeless couple and brought her home. I’ve fallen in love with her, she’s easy going, gets along with my dog and my cat but will need a LOT of training and exercise due to her breed. Mazzy is super sweet and snuggly and is very playful. She’s around 2 mos now. I just rescued her from the streets beginning of the year.. She has learned come, sit and stay within weeks so she is quite smart! I would love to find a loving, patient and active family for her that can provide the support, time and training and of course love, she deserves.

Story
Daisy Ann is an absolute gem. She’s house trained, crate trained, walks beautifully on leash, knows her basic commands, and is more than ready to find her forever home — or a foster who can help her while she waits. Her prior foster mom says, “Daisy Ann is a beautiful dog. She’s protective, loyal, and absolutely adores her adult humans. She loves being near them, going on walks, and playing with toys.”Born in 2021 and 79 pounds, Daisy is a happy, bright, and food-motivated girl. She does well with calm dogs but is a bit shy and needs help building confidence — this is where her person comes in. She’s looking for a strong, active leader who will continue the great progress she’s made and show her she’s safe and loved.Daisy isn’t a fan of cats and would do best in a home with respectful kids over 10. If you’re ready to foster or adopt and help this sweet girl truly shine, please fill out an application today.February 9, 2026, 2:10 pm

Story
Sirius is an athletic pup with a heart full of love and loyalty. A German Shepherd mix weighing in at about 70 lbs, he was rescued from the streets of Perris, CA, alongside his mom and 7 siblings. Despite his rough start, Sirius has adapted beautifully in his foster home and is now ready to find his forever family.This handsome boy lives to play ball — seriously, he could chase and catch it all day if you let him! He's a natural athlete and a superstar fetch player. Sirius is also leash-trained, crate-trained, knows his basic commands, and responds quickly when called — making him an ideal companion for active individuals or families.Out and about, Sirius is social, friendly and outgoing, happily meeting new dogs and people. At home, he shows a protective side — a common trait in shepherd mixes — and he’ll need continued guidance to help him understand that his humans are the pack leaders and he doesn’t need to take on that role. With consistent boundaries, structure, and confidence-building, Sirus will thrive.If you're looking for a smart, energetic, and devoted dog to join your adventures and your heart, Sirius might just be the one.November 29, 2025, 1:13 pm
