Story
Meet Rambo – a big-hearted, intelligent boy looking for a dog-savvy home, ideally with experience in Dobermans or similar guarding breeds. Before we tell you all the wonderful things about him, it’s important to be upfront: Rambo needs a home with experienced handlers who understand large, working breeds — especially those familiar with the unique needs and temperament of Dobermans. He’ll thrive in a calm, structured environment with confident leadership and clear boundaries. Once he trusts you, Rambo is the biggest lovebug around. He adores his people and will lean his tall frame gently against you for all the pets and kisses he can get. Despite his size, he’s incredibly polite — no jumping, no pushy behavior — just a sweet, soulful guy who wants to be close to his humans. Rambo is smart as a whip and already knows a long list of commands: Sit, Paw, Down, Stay, Spin — and he’s even muzzle trained. He’s got the foundation of an obedience rockstar and would love a home that can continue nurturing his mind with training and mental engagement. While Rambo hasn’t had direct off-leash play with other dogs, he has shown calm, tolerant behavior around them through the fence — even with small dogs. He may do well with another respectful, low-energy dog who gives him space and doesn’t jump on him. Physically, Rambo may have a condition often referred to as “long back syndrome” — where his spine is slightly too long for his muscular structure. While he gets around just fine, this can cause occasional soreness. Because of this, he’ll need a family who can accommodate his physical needs, including managing his activity level and ensuring he’s not being roughed up by other pets. Supportive care, joint supplements, and a comfortable home setup will go a long way in keeping him happy and healthy. Rambo is loyal, loving, and incredibly rewarding to work with. In the right home — one with breed knowledge, structure, and physical awareness — he’s going to absolutely thrive. Think you’re the right fit for Rambo? Call the Ranch to learn more about this special boy today. He’s ready to find the safe, loving home he truly deserves. Thank you for considering adopting a Rescue Ranch dog. While they are with us, each and every rescue dog receives the best of care in a loving and nurturing environment. Their routines include daily playgroups or partnering with dog buddies, quality time walking or being groomed, and two meals a day with dog biscuits for dessert.  All of our dogs receive the best in veterinary care and are spay/neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative, and fully vaccinated.  The standard adoption donation fee for all dogs and puppies is $300 (unless a reduced fee applies )  APPLY NOW       October 9, 2025, 4:23 pm

Story
Meet Frances! Shy, sweet, and full of potential — Frances is a gentle soul who's just beginning to discover what it means to feel safe, loved, and at home. Frances came to us from another shelter alongside her buddy Franklin. While she’s still finding her confidence, she’s already made incredible progress and is ready for the next chapter of her journey — one filled with patience, kindness, and a family who will give her the time she needs to truly shine. During her stay in a short-term foster home, Frances was introduced to both cats and large dogs — and she handled it like a champ! Cats were no problem at all, and while she was initially cautious around the bigger pups, she warmed up over time and even started wrestling and playing with one of them! She may always prefer smaller, less intimidating animals, but she could absolutely do well with a gentle, respectful larger dog companion. Frances is naturally curious and showed adorable signs of progress in foster — like following her person around the house (even if she quickly scampered off when noticed!). She’s slowly starting to reveal her playful side, and we just know that, in the right home, she’ll bloom into the loving, joyful pup she’s meant to be. All she needs now is a patient, quiet home with someone who can help her continue building trust at her own pace. Once she bonds with you, she'll be your devoted little shadow — ready to return the love tenfold. Could you be the one to help Frances discover her full sparkle? Call the Ranch to come meet this lovely girl today! Thank you for considering adopting a Rescue Ranch dog.

Story
Meet Timeless Teto — a one-of-a-kind shepherd with a whole lot of heart! If you're looking for a loyal, energetic, and goofy companion who thrives on play, Teto might just be your perfect match! This handsome guy is bursting with personality and looking for a dog-savvy home that understands how to respect his boundaries and meet him where he's at emotionally and physically. Teto is a toy connoisseur—he absolutely lives for toys! Squeaky, bouncy, chewy—you name it, he wants it. Providing him with a good variety of toys is a surefire way to keep this clever pup happy and mentally enriched. He also plays well with other dogs when introduced in the right environment. While he may prefer having his own space at home, he’s proven to be a polite and fun playmate with the right canine pals. That said, Teto isn’t the type of dog who enjoys crowded spaces or chaotic environments. Loud, bustling settings just aren't his thing. He’s much more comfortable and confident when he has room to breathe and time to adjust. Because of this, he may be happiest in a home where he can live primarily outdoors—especially if you’ve got a secure yard, open land, or a more rural property where he can stretch his legs, chase his toys, and enjoy life at his own pace. Teto is looking for a special person or family—someone experienced with a variety of dog personalities and confident in giving him the space, structure, and patience he needs to thrive. Once he bonds with you, he’s all in—and that bond will be deep, rewarding, and full of joy. Ready to meet your loyal shadow, fetch partner, and best friend? Call the Ranch to meet Teto today!   Thank you for considering adopting a Rescue Ranch dog.

Story
Meet Krash! Krash is a gentle soul with a heart full of love. He came to the Ranch alongside a momma dog and her litter of puppies after being found at a local towing company — his past may be a mystery, but his future is full of hope! When Krash first arrived, he was shy and kept to himself, often retreating to his dog house. But with time and patience, he’s blossomed into a sweet, affectionate boy who absolutely loves soaking up belly rubs and giving gentle kisses. His favorite move? Rolling over to invite all the cuddles he can get! Krash might be a quiet guy, but he’s got good manners! While he’s still learning his commands, he walks beautifully on leash and always knows to be gentle with his people. His calm and mellow personality makes him the perfect match for someone seeking a relaxed, loving companion. Plus, he’s great with both male and female dogs, making him an easy-going addition to a multi-dog home! If you’re looking for a sweet, low-key best friend who will shower you with love, Krash might just be your guy. Give the Ranch a call today to meet him! &#226&#156&#168 Thank you for considering adopting a Rescue Ranch dog.
