Story
Meet Joey! Joey is a 7‑month‑old half Golden Retriever, half Dutch Shepherd pup with the brains, drive, and charm to prove it. Both of his parents come from professional working lines in the private sector, so it’s no surprise this boy is smart, fast, focused, and full of potential. From an “oops” litter of 11 puppies, Joey is one of the last two still waiting for his perfect match. And trust us, you don’t want to miss out on this pup. Joey is active, loyal, eager to learn, and bursting with energy. He’s the kind of dog who wants a purpose, thrives on adventure, and absolutely shines when he’s given something to do. If you’re an experienced owner, an active family, or a handler looking for your next partner, Joey is ready to level up with you. He’s playful, people‑loving, and already showing all the hallmarks of a dog who will grow into an incredible companion. And yes, he’s also gorgeous. Joey has beautiful dark fur, a sleek athletic build, and the kind of expressive face that makes it impossible not to smile back at him. If you’re searching for a fun, high‑drive, endlessly rewarding pup to grow with, train with, and bond with, Joey might just be your new best friend. Apply now to meet your match and maybe your new training partner, hiking buddy, or canine co-worker.

hi Luca, this good boy is a 1 year old Belgian shepherd mix. He was surrendered to the local animal control shelter as he was abandoned by his owner with a family member who could not keep him or provide for him. He is 72 lbs. Luca is such a good boy! Typical of any shepherd mixes what have been through lot of changes in a short time, he was at first a bit nervous and unsure with us but is quickly adjusting. He does well with our volunteers, is interested in the outdoors and is just fun boy. He is an active dog that is looking for an equally active home. Luca prefers to be your one and only dog. He will come neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and 4dx tested. If you are serious about adoption, please fill out an adoption application on our website www.phoenixanimalrescue.com His adoption fee is $400.

Story
hi Thomas, this stunning guy is an almost 2 year old Belgian Shepherd. He found himself in trouble when his owner surrendered him to a local animal control shelter. Thankfully. we were able to step in and help him. The previous owner for Thomas claims that he has lived with kids but he was too big for them so he brought him to a shelter. In the shelter, Thomas was very stressed and nervous, not surprising, so he was difficult to handle. Thankfully, our resident Mal expert Bruno was able to make a trip to the shelter to assess him. After taking him out of the kennel, he had no trouble handling him so he brought him to the rescue. While high energy, he has zero drive for actual work. He had little interest in regular toys, and none in bite toys. Thomas is relying purely on his absolutely stunning, wolf-like looks to be adored by his future family. He wants to be the trophy pet that will get the enjoyed the good, spoiled, active life. Having said all that, he is looking for an adult only home that is experienced with the breed. While he has lived with kids before, due to the fearful and anxious behavior he has showed in the shelter both at ACCT and our rescue, he will not be placed with children. He will make a great pet for the right person who is looking for a non-working mal. He would need to meet any resident dogs. He will come neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and 4dx tested. If you are serious about adoption, please fill out an adoption application on our website www.phoenixanimalrescue.com His adoption fee is $300.

Please contact Marilyn at 856-275-6905 for more information about this pet.  This dog is located in Newark, DE. Visit us on the web at https://fur-everpaws.com/fur-ever-paws-adoption-application/ to submit an application. Please contact the foster directly at 856-275-6905 (call or text) or via email at Fureverpawsdogrescue@gmail.com&#226&#128&#139 Fur Ever Paws Dog Rescue is a small no kill rescue operating in the Delaware/Maryland area. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit that rescues and places homeless, neglected or abused dogs from high-kill shelters in the south into loving, responsible committed and permanent homes. We feel our comprehensive adoption process which includes not only taking the time to match the dog to the prospective new owner but helping to educate that owner in responsible dog care, allows us to find the best homes for our little buddies and the best companions for you! Each week we use USDA certified transports to bring dogs from high-kill shelters in the south to our fosters where they all receive the appropriate medical care and are placed in nurturing loving homes while they await placement in their forever homes. Interested in one of our dogs? Great! Now that you've seen them here, you'll need to go to our website where you'll find our list of adoptable dogs (updated every week). Then, it's just a simple process of finding a dog you're interested in and filling out an application on our site. Once we receive your application, whoever is fostering that particular dog will contact you and do a short over the phone interview to complete your application process. If everything works out, they will set an appointment with you so come out and "visit" with the dog you're interested in (we want to make sure that not only are you a good fit for the dog but that the dog will fit with you). If everything works out, you'll be able to take rover (or spot, or jax) home with you that very day. A couple of things you should know: We can't hold dogs over the phone or via email. Adoption fees vary based on breed. All of our dogs have been vet checked and dewormed (if possible due to age, additional treatment may be needed). We provide a spay or neuter voucher to all of our adopters. &#226&#128&#139 January 27, 2026, 1:19 pm

Story
Hi, my name is peanut! Although I am four years old, I have the energy of a 100 pound puppy. I am a German Shepherd and I live at home with another dog, two kids. I previously lived with up to three cats at one point and did very well. I think it’s because of my big size that other dogs sometimes dont like me. But whenever I go to the dog park, I play really well with all the dogs. I know all the commands. I just choose to follow them… well sometimes. I’m extra good with E-collar training though and have had extensive training in the past. I just need someone who is experienced with GSD and can be consistent with training to really help me shine!
