Story
This beautiful German Shepherd girl was found as a stray, pregnant and clearly having been through more than her share of hard times. We don’t know her full story, but her body told us enough—she’s known struggle, hunger, and heartbreak.   Willow gave birth to 8 precious puppies, but tragically, only 3 survived. Even through her grief, she’s been an amazing mama—gentle, nurturing, and strong.   She’s on the smaller side for a German Shepherd, but her heart is huge. Willow is potty trained, great on leash, learning her name, and loves being close to her people. She gets along wonderfully with other dogs, enjoys playing in water, and has even proven herself to be a great little mouse catcher!   Willow is loyal, loving, and ready for a fresh start. She deserves a home full of kindness, comfort, and people who see the beauty in her resilience.   If you think Willow could be part of your story, reach out. She’s ready for the love she’s always deserved.   ##2342612##

Story
Meet Yumi! Yumi is a beautiful Doberman/Lab mix with a heart as big as her personality. This sweet pup is full of energy and ready to bring joy to her forever family. She knows her basics—like sit and even giving her paw for a treat. Yumi is potty trained, sleeps soundly on her cozy doggy bed, and gets along wonderfully with the four other dogs in her foster home. While Yumi is playful and affectionate, she does have a few quirks—cats and squirrels are a bit too exciting for her, and she can be shy when meeting new people. With a little patience and time, she warms up and shows her true, loving nature. Yumi’s big personality and zest for life make her the perfect companion for an active family. She’s the kind of dog who can turn your whole day around with her sweet presence and goofy charm. ##2496518##

Story
Vivian, a sweet 3-year-old Pyrenees mix, is a loving mama rescued from a tough start. Now healthy and ready for adventure, she loves water, car rides, and exploring. She's house-trained, crate-trained, potty-trained, leash-trained, and has great recall, doing great on walks and at social gatherings. Ideally, she needs a secure, fenced yard and a home without cats, but with bigger, playful dog companions. Feed separately, she's respectful of seniors but would thrive with more energetic pals. She's spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and loves bath time! ##2372826##

Story
Meet Sugar & Spice two sweet sisters with lots of love to give. These girls were sadly found abandoned on the side of the road with no trace of an owner, but that’s all behind them now they’re safe, loved, and officially Calpaws pups! Sugar and Spice are believed to be young adults, likely just under a year old, and we suspect they’re Anatolian Shepherd mixes, a gentle guardian breed known for loyalty and intelligence. Despite their rough start, these two have kept their sweetness. They’re dog friendly, kid friendly, and people friendly just easygoing girls who want to belong. Because of the risk of littermate syndrome, Sugar and Spice will be adopted separately, but both are searching for their perfect match. They are a bit timid, so each will thrive best in a home with another confident dog who can show them the ropes and help them blossom. If you’re looking for a loving companion with a soft spirit and a bright future, Sugar or Spice might be your perfect match.  ##2579101##
