Story
Fireball - Ready to turn up the fun?  Hi, I’m Fireball, and I’m here to move. Like, literally. I don’t sit still for long. I’ve got energy for days, and I need a person who can keep up. Think running, biking, hiking, exploring — if you’re doing something active, I’m in. I’m a pittie and Malinois mix, which means I was built for action and brain games. I love running next to a bike, cruising down trails, and staying engaged. I don’t do well sitting in a kennel all day. It makes me restless, and yeah, I’ll act out if I can’t burn off my steam. I need structure, movement, and a person who gets that I’m not a couch potato. I’m also super focused. Sometimes I get in the zone and do my own thing, but that just means I’m always thinking and curious. I’d do best in a home with older kids who can handle my energy. Littles might find me a bit much because I’m just so excited about life. I’m always down for a good adventure. I’m up to date on all my shots and I’ll be neutered before adoption. i would like to be the only dog in the home.  If you’re looking for a dog who wants to go everywhere with you and turn every day into something fun, then I’m your guy. Let’s go. Fully vetted, vaccinated, and house-trained Professionally trained in basics (sit, stay, walking on leash, etc) – includes 1 FREE trainer session at trainer's location for adopters Foster-to-adopt option available – all costs during fostering are covered by us - food, medical, etc ##2257160##

Meet LouieLouie, Yes I am double the fun, double the pleasure!!!! I am PLAYFUL, ATHLETIC, SMART AS A WHIP, ADVENTEROUS, AND READY FOR PRETTY MUCH ANYTHING!!!!!!! I love water, I love playing, I love training, attention, walks, car rides, hikes.......BRING IT ON!!!!!!! My Foster Family sings me the song......Louie Louie, oh no, take me where you gotta go!!!!! BORN FEB 2025. POCKET SIZE AT ABOUT 40LBS BUT ATHLETIC!!! We will not lie.....LouieLouie is one of a kind!!!!!!!!! You better be ready for his playful antics because he is the class clown and for adventure and play, he is down!!!!!! Loouie LOVES other dogs (after introductions), is cat friendly, kid friendly, people friendly. He loves life to the fullest, every minute of every day. We feel LouieLouie MUST have a playful companion pup friend, somewhat close to his age, or young enough to engage in some run and fun!!!!!! But once he is done, He is ALLLLLL LOVE!!!!! This boy just has it ALL going on!!!!! Louie was abandoned on the streets as a small pup left to fend for himself. He loves toys and pretty much anything you want to do. He is confident and although we would NEVER be worried about LouieLouie showing aggression, he is proud and present! WE PROMISE OUR RESCUES A LIFE FILLED WITH LOVE AND ADVENTURE WHERE THEY NEVER HAVE TO LOOK BACK ON THE SADDER DAYS OF THEIR NEGLECT. If you are interested in LouieLouie please include your phone number and a paragraph about yourself, your home and your lifestyle. We promise to reach out to you as quickly as possible.

Story
Meet Bruce 🖤 Bruce is about 66 pounds of stunning Malinois mix goodness, with a heart as big as his smile. His story almost had a heartbreaking ending—but instead, it became exactly the kind of rescue story that reminds us why we do this. Bruce landed at an overcrowded shelter and waited… and waited. Month after month, he was overlooked, despite being a staff favorite. He was friendly, happy-go-lucky, and so sweet—yet somehow, he ended up red-listed, scheduled to lose his life simply because time ran out. Staff shared videos of him bouncing around, completely unaware that the next day was supposed to be his last. We couldn’t let that happen. The Misfit Ranch swooped in just in time, and during Bruce’s freedom walk, shelter staff were in tears—happy tears—knowing this good boy was finally safe. Rescues like this are what it’s all about, and Bruce’s second chance was only possible because a foster family stepped up when it mattered most. Now Bruce is thriving in his foster home with a loving foster mom and dad and a foster sister dog. He does well with other dogs (he may need a minute to warm up) and is friendly with people. He also does great at the dog park, showing off his social skills and enjoying time with canine friends. He’s lived with older kids and would do best in a home with older children or no kids, as tiny humans aren’t really his thing. Bruce is: Crate trained (though he’ll let you know he prefers sleeping in the same room as his people—even if it’s still in a crate!) A total couch snuggler Deeply people-oriented and happiest when he’s near his humans Loyal, affectionate, and incredibly lovable Bruce survived against the odds, and now he’s just waiting for the one thing he’s never had—a forever home. If you’re looking for a devoted companion with an incredible rescue story and a whole lot of love to give, Bruce might be the one who’s been waiting for you all along. 🐾💛

Ash was born February 1st, 2026. I brought her into my home with my two younger children and my older dog about 4 weeks ago unaware that I was expecting another baby. Ash is so playful yet so gentle when she is with my babies. It truly hurts my heart that I am not able to keep Ash due to my high risk pregnancy. She is truly an amazing puppy. I know that she will bring joy and happiness everywhere she goes. ❤️

Story
Meet Flower 🌸 Flower is a 1-year-old Belgian Malinois full of energy, enthusiasm, and personality. True to her breed, she thrives on activity; whether it's sprinting around the yard, burning off energy, or playing fetch (her absolute favorite!). She's still young and learning her manners, so she can get a little overexcited and jumpy when greeting people. She may be slightly nervous when meeting new faces at first, but once she warms up, she's incredibly affectionate, playful, and loyal. Flower does best as an outdoor/backyard dog with plenty of space to run. She would thrive with an experienced owner who understands large, high-energy breeds and can provide structure, consistency, and active engagement. If you're looking for a smart, energetic companion who will keep you moving and reward you with love and loyalty, Flower may be your perfect match.

These pups are in Temecula, California too!

Story
This Gorgeous Big Boy is not only stunning, but a Big Boy with the sweetest heart of Gold. He's just a lovely boy and cuddle bunny. He is however, dog selective - preferring not other Male dogs, he seems to get along with female dogs however. Fernando loves playing Fetch, and is good at it. He loves long walks on the beach (or wherever), and just wants a lovely family/best friend of his own, as he will truly be there for you....He is VERY well House-trained as well If you are looking for a wonderful large pup to be a constant companion, to be there for you, to run and play with, etc, Fernando is your boy! He's still young, doesn't have spastic puppy energy, is neutered, microchipped, wormed and ready for his new home!

Story
I’m Rufus. I’ve Been Let Down Twice. I’m Still Showing Up.I'm currently in California, but my bags are packed, I’m ready to travel to my new home. Where are you? Are you my new family? I’ll travel to you! I’m 2 years old. A big German Shepherd, about 94 pounds of fur, strength, and a heart that keeps choosing people even when it hasn’t worked out before. I was adopted. Then I ended up back as a stray.It happened again. The second time, I came in wearing a shock collar that was too tight. It had to be cut off. I had open wounds around my neck. Even then, I stayed kind. The shelter staff loved me. They saw who I was under everything. They just didn’t have the resources to help me the way I needed. Then things almost went in the wrong direction again. Plans that weren’t right for me. That’s when people stepped in and said no, not this dog, not again. Now I’m safe. I’m getting the care I need. I’m healing. Here’s what you should know about me. I love people. I’m friendly. I’m the kind of dog who wants to be near you and be part of your life. I’ve done well with other dogs. I’ve lived in a home before. I know what it means to be with someone. And I’m loyal. Deeply. I’m a big dog, so I’ll need someone comfortable with my size. But I’m not difficult. I just need someone steady. Someone who means it. Because I do. I’m not looking to bounce around again. I’m looking for the place where I finally stay. If you’ve been waiting for a dog who will give you everything he has, I’m already that dog. ##2715474##
