How this pet arrived:Nesta was brought in by a community member on April 21, 2026. Why this pet is the one for you:Meet Nesta, a soft-hearted gal searching for a calm, cozy kingdom to call her own. Because Nesta came to us as a stray, we don't know much about her previous home life. What we do know is that this sensitive girl prefers a steady routine, a smaller world and plenty of time to settle in at her own pace. Big changes can feel like a little too much for her, but with patience, love and gentle guidance, Nesta is sure to blossom into a wonderful companion! Once she warms up, she's an affectionate pup who will happily solicit attention and lay her head in your lap for petting. She loves going on walks and taking in the sights and smells around her. Because she's a bit nervous, she would do best in a home with children ages 6 and up, with parents ready to supervise and help everyone adjust successfully! Does Nesta sound like the one for you? Ask about adopting her today! At SDHS:Nesta has been vaccinated, microchipped and spayed. She is now ready for her new home!

Story
This is Cooper. He was rescued from a distressed home owner in Rancho Cucamonga at 6 weeks old. I took Cooper in to my home at 6 weeks old. His breeding was unknown and it was thought he was a shepard mix that would grow to about 40 pounds. He was taken immediately to the animal hospital for an examination and his vaccinations,the vet thought he was a Malinois Mix and believed he would grow to 50+ pounds. I have enrolled Cooper in 2 Puppy Training Classes and have been working with him, However, he has been growing stronger and larger and it has become more difficult for me to handle him. I am a senior female and have realized it is unsafe for me, not because he is mean, more because he is very energetic and large. He is very lovable to me and is eager to please but a typical adolescent dog. He is food motivated, loves walks and riding in the car. Loves the beach and Starbucks Pup cups. As he is maturing he has become resistant to the Crate, but once in he remains quiet ane calm.

Coming Soon. Accepting applications! Cheetah is a stunning, eye-catching pup with a bold black mask highlighted by soft splashes of white around her nose and a distinctive white spot just above it. Her sweet expression is made even more endearing by a delicate white chin that flows into a beautiful, bright white chest.

With her unique markings and lovely personality, she’s the kind of pup who stands out in any crowd and quickly steals hearts. These lovable German shepherd puppies were born and raised in a loving home. They have been growing up with other dogs and have been well socialized with people. They are looking for homes prepared for all things puppy and devoted to training. They are spunky and playful while also adoring human affection. Their mom is sweet and docile, she is a true testament to the breeds devotion to people. German Shepherds are confident, courageous, intelligent, and faithful. They have a look of nobility, and the intentions to boot. They are a versatile breed prized for their utility and smarts, often used in working roles as K-9 units, search and rescue, and service dogs. They’re a popular family pet with a knack for protecting the flock. German Shepherds are a large, active breed with few standard drawbacks besides shedding, and they make great companions so long as they are properly socialized, well-trained, and have consistent leadership.

How this pet arrived: Nebula was brought in by a community member on July 14, 2025.Why this pet is the one for you:Nebula is a dog who truly lives up to her celestial name, offering a perfect balance of sweet affection and a wonderful sense of independence. She is the ultimate partner for a quiet night in or a busy day at home, happy to act as your "helper" or contentedly play with her toys. Indoors, Nebula is a total dream-she is reliably potty trained, respectful of boundaries and takes treats with incredible gentleness. Life with Nebula is easy and predictable thanks to her solid training and steady demeanor. She is excellent on a leash, knows her commands and views her crate as a peaceful sanctuary. When she's looking for love, she'll politely rest her head near you or roll over for the belly scratches she enjoys so much. To ensure Nebula is set up for success, she is looking for a home with older, respectful children in a quiet neighborhood. Because she prefers structured environments, she isn't a candidate for off-leash dog parks or beaches. Nebula often prefers being the star of the show and might do best as your "one and only," but if you already have a dog at home, we'll just need to do an on-campus meet-and-greet to make sure they pass the vibe check! If you're looking for a well-mannered, independent, and affectionate soul, Nebula is ready to launch into her next adventure with you. At SDHS:This pet has been vaccinated, microchipped and spayed/neutered. This pet is now ready for adoption! Primary Color: Tan Secondary Color: Black Weight: 66.4 Age: 4yrs 6mths 0wks
