Story

Meet Pepper Pepper is a petite, 9-month-old pup who is still learning what it means to feel safe and loved. Likely Pongo's sibling, she came from the same shelter and is blossoming more every day in foster care. She is currently enrolled in training classes and doing wonderfully. Pepper is a quick learner who benefits from structure, consistency, and positive reinforcement. Pepper absolutely loves other dogs. Playtime is her favorite - she could run and romp for hours with her dog friends. A home with another playful dog would be ideal for her, though she would also thrive with an adopter who can give her plenty of exercise and attention. She is shy at first and needs a patient adopter who will give her time to adjust, but once she feels comfortable, her affectionate, fun, and loving personality shines through. Pepper is ready to continue her training and grow into the loyal, joyful companion she is meant to be. Location: Corona, CA Apply at: www.grandmasbarnrescue.com

Story

Pongo is a Shepherd Collie Mix who was pulled from Moreno Valley Animal Shelter and was there since the beginning of July. From Pongo's foster: " I had been visiting him at the shelter for almost 2 months and no interest.. I watched him get better from a virus and pull through and still no one. He was always so well behaved. Would sit when I asked. Was loyal on the first day I met him just chill and would do his business and come back to you and lay down below you. He's such a calm dog for being at such a loud shelter. Not reactive to people nor dogs. Walks well on the leash. Can you ask for more of a perfect dog??? He was scared of the stairs when he came home but conquered it like a champ on his first night! Pongo, you're such a great dog! You make me feel like I'm going to foster fail with you

Story

Located in Reno, NV. Brady is a smart, handsome boy who has been thriving in an extensive training program. His high intelligence makes him eager to learn and capable of so much with the right guidance. According to his trainer, Brady is an easy, relaxed dog outside of stimulating environments. He crates with no fuss, loves to hang out quietly in the yard, nose around for kibble, or lounge by your side. Around higher-stimulus situations, Brady benefits from tight management and structure to keep up the healthy habits he's worked so hard to build. The great news is that he's been walking and working around other dogs successfully, and he responds beautifully to the e-collar, which will be an important tool in continuing his progress. Brady is looking for a home that appreciates his intelligence and is committed to keeping up his training. In return, you'll gain a loyal, affectionate, and wonderfully capable companion. Brady's adoption includes 12 sessions with a private trainer, 3 boarding nights and unlimited group classes. We are so dedicated to Brady and know that the perfect person is out there looking for him.

Tengu

Great Pyrenees German Shepherd Dog

Male, Adult

Riverside, CA

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Tengu is a sweet, goofy XL puppy. He is in foster with other dogs but is dog-selective and has an “alpha” personality. He prefers to be where his humans are - chilling out watching tv, helping you cook, following you to the bathroom, playing fetch in the backyard - and would love a home with hiking, camping, and family adventures. He loves following you around like a shadow, but can also be overprotective of his humans, typical of guardian breeds. He can be reactive on leash around strangers, so an experienced handler ready to train is a must.
