Story
WE ARE NOW ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS!! I am very excited to tell you a little bit about myself. I'm a really cute, totally lovable medium sized dog.... plus I'm very smart if I may say so myself. Here are a few things I love to do: Cuddle Play ball Treats Long or short walks Belly rubs Ice cubes Relaxing right next to you on the couch I really like being the queen of the house and will need to be in a one animal home (just me), I prefer to give all my attention to my Human. I've learned how to sit, lay down, shake and rollover, just check out my video. I've lived with adults and children.... and am totally comfortable with play time and cuddle time. I am not very pushy when I want something and I do like to sunbathe to explore my inner self. How can you possibly swipe left with me???? If you are a home with no other four legged pets please please consider me as a forever pet. Pasha The VERY first step is completing an application on-line.

Story
WE ARE NOW ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS for KEKO!!! THIS GUY! This handsome sweet little man landed in a HIGH kill shelter through no fault of his own! Unfortunately with the shelters full and him being a senior, he was quickly moved to the euthanasia list. Thankfully he made it out alive, and now in search of his happily ever after to live out his golden years! Keko is sweet, easy going, great natured, kind, polite, quiet, loves sunning himself or hanging out watching tv! Super easy going guy! Keko does have a heart murmur, but this doesn't stop him, or cause him any issues. He does need daily medication, but don't we all once we hit a certain age! LOL!

Story
WE ARE NOW ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS!! Ohhhhhhh JIMMY!!! Where do we even begin with this amazing kid?! This doll baby was adopted from a local shelter earlier this year as a tiny puppy. He landed back in the shelter a couple months later with a severe leg injury, that would be consistent with abuse. There he stayed for 3 months! As he continued to grow, his leg didn't. After 3 long months, and Jimmy only 7/months old at the time, the shelter decided to move him to euthanasia list. There was NO WAY we were going to let life fail him like that! He was worthy and deserved to LIVE his LIFE! We took him to the best surgeon in hopes of saving his leg, but the damage was severe and unfixable. Jimmy lost his front leg, but this was a blessing to him. He had been in excruciating pain for so long, he was so happy to no longer feel pain and now move freely about life! Jimmy is a doll! He loves other dogs, loves humans, loves life! He can do anything any 4 legged pup can do, but better! Jimmy is potty trained, crate trained, and ready to find his happily ever after!

Story
WE ARE NOW ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS for Foster! This sweet doll baby boy was dumped on the streets to fend for himself and try to survive and navigate the concrete jungle of LA. This is happening so often these days. Thankfully two amazing humans found him and offered him a hand while they searched for his family high and low, sadly (but no surprise) no one was looking for him. Foster has been living in a boarding facility because they are not allowed another big dog in their apartment. We would like to see him in a foster home or forever family ASAP! Foster has been vaccinated, fixed, microchipped, and working with a fabulous certified trainer for basic skills while we search high and low for his happily ever after. Foster is dog and people friendly! We would prefer someone with GSD experience, or familiar with the breed. He is young and still has a lot of energy and needs mental stimulation and exercise.
