Story
Everyone meet Bubba!  He has a couple of bumps so we had him checked out by the vet before introducing him and verified they are just harmless Lipomas Bubba is said to be a 7 year old shepherd type mix. He has done well with people, kids, and other dogs! He does best with off leash intros. He got to take a road trip already and did great. He doesn’t require a kennel at night, he sleeps free in his foster home. He is potty trained and knows how to use the dog door too!  Help us find Bubba a wonderful home .

Story
Chili is 2 years old. Her Embark DNA swab is pending. I don't believe she had lived inside prior to coming to rescue. Along with that, she didn't know what a kennel was, wasn't potty trained, and didn't know how to interact appropriately with dogs. She did come LOVING humans.   Chili didn't get along with her first fosters dogs, so she came to us since we can separate temporarily. Here's the thing, she hated segregation. She wanted to be with the other dogs and didn't have the typical dog aggressive attitude I've dealt with before. So we started working. Muzzle training was first. Thankfully she was already fabulous on a leash. She has also figured out relaxing and down time.   Then we started playing one on one with the other dogs with a muzzle on and leashed so when she got overstimulated we could separate. The thing is she was so excited to be around the other dogs she would get so excited for the muzzle! Gradually we did more and more. Now she is integrated with everyone, but she does have guarding behaviors, so we are working on "making good decisions."   She was not potty trained so we have used potty pads by the door which she figured out right away. Gradually she has figured out potty training. She uses the door bell or barks at night if she needs to go out. She still doesn't like the kennel, so we have a heavy duty kennel that she's in during the day when I am out of the house. She's gradually getting more used to it, but will still avoid coming inside if she knows she is going in the kennel. Chili would do fine as an only dog with walks, or with experienced dog parents who are willing to slowly integrate (she took a full month to feel comfortable here). Fostering to adopt is absolutely an option! If you have any questions please reach out! To apply online please visit k911foundation.com/adopt March 10, 2026, 2:59 pm

Story
Gator was surrendered due to change in the family circumstances. He is such a well behaved and friendly guy. He loves humans! He isn't sure around toddlers so kiddos over 5 please! He has done well with the dogs in his foster home. He is potty and kennel trained although the kennel isn't required after settling in. He grew up on a farm and protected the yard from squirrels and raccoons, so we are also looking for a home with no small animals! If you think Gator could be a good fit, please fill out an application at www.k911foundation.com/adopt. March 10, 2026, 2:59 pm

Story
Rocky (aka Rocky da Bow) is 9mo old. He's such a sweet, playful snuggly pup. He's ready to hang out all day and likes to stay close. He loves to play ball and tug of war. He's like a gentle almost giant. Rocky knows (sometimes) when its time to chill. Give him a treat and he'll try to learn anything. Although needs more consistency. Thankfully he knows he's not a lap dog but rather trys to melt into you when laying on the couch. I don't know if he realizes how big he is. He's been a good boy but needs someone who will exercise him more than we're able either with a fenced yard or long walks. Other than some toes stepped on hes wonderful with our young kids. He's curious about cats and will chase them but with more exposure I know he'd learn to leave them be. Still tuning the potty training but again with more attention I'm sure he'd catch on fast. Our schedules got busier than anticipated. Bring this bubs home and enjoy a loyal loving companion.
