Story

Poppy is a sweet, snuggle-bug of a dog. She loves people. Her entire body wags when she sees people. She is so gentle that she refuses to play tug of war. We came from a shelter in Dallas at 6 months old. She'd been hit by a car and fractured her hip. She's healed, but she gets sore after a few miles. It doesn't stop her from being a good hiking buddy. We've worked on verbal recall and heeling. She does need about half a mile to work out the excitement of walks, but once she's great once she's found your pace. She is 60 pounds of lap dog and will spend whole afternoons snuggling. Our kids were elementary age when we brought her home. So, she's always been around kids. We also have cats and chickens and she's not bothered them. She sits, lays down, waits for treats, and shakes. Unfortunately, she has some anxiety and food aggression with other dogs. She's on prozac for anxiety. However, the food aggression has resulted in her biting our other dog. She needs to be the only dog.

Story

Hi! I’m Porsche. 🐾✨ Yes — like the car. And honestly? The name fits. I’m about a year and a half old, full of energy, and built for movement. I’ve got that classic German Shepherd brain — smart, alert, and ready to go. But I also have a soft side that just wants attention and connection. I recently came back to the shelter after a short stay in a home. Transitions can be a lot for a young shepherd like me. Big changes, new dogs, new environments — it’s overwhelming when everything happens at once. I’m still learning how to slow down and settle when life moves fast. Here’s what I can tell you about the real me: I’m friendly. I’m sweet. I love attention. 💕 I know sit and down, and I come when you call my name. I enjoy car rides 🚗 and I’m happiest when I have something to do — especially if it squeaks! Oh… and toys? They are my thing. 🎾 If there’s a squeaker inside, I will find it. Immediately. I love fetch — although sometimes I’d rather lie down and proudly chew on the ball like I just won a championship. I can get very focused on my toys (I take play seriously!). When I first come out of a kennel, I’ve got some zoomies in me — that young shepherd energy! But once I’m in the yard and have space to move, I settle nicely. Structure helps me. Clear expectations help me. Slow introductions help me. I’m not a “throw me in the backyard and figure it out” kind of dog. I’m a “let’s build this the right way” kind of dog. With proper introductions, supervision, and guidance, I have all the potential in the world to thrive. I would do best with: A confident, experienced dog owner Structured routines Slow, thoughtful introductions to other pets Plenty of enrichment and toy time I’m young. I’m smart. I’m full of potential. And I’m ready for someone who wants to invest in me the right way. If you’re looking for a loyal, energetic companion with a playful heart and a working-dog brain, I might be your girl. Let’s do this properly — together. 💛 — Porsche 🐕

Story

Freya was born February 21st 2018 from a breeder in Western Nebraska. She is purebred American German Shepherd, Sable colored, and just about 105 lbs. She is truly one of the sweetest dogs I've ever known. She is full of love, and very protective of her family. She has lived with a dog and 2 cats her entire life. We welcomed our first child 3yrs ago and she has been amazing with them the entire time. For years we struggled with spayed incontinence but in 2024 she had a surgery to correct it at KSU Manhattan but sometimes still has accidents if she doesn't get regular exercise. She is full of anxiety. Afraid of wind, shadows, everyone she meets but has never bit anyone. She just runs away and gives warning grumbles that she doesn't approve of new people. She really needs a home that can give her quiet, patience, and daily love and exercise. I am unable to give her the care she needs now and I hope her next home loves her as much as we do.

Story

Duncan is a loyal, high-energy boy who’s been part of my life for the past year, and he’s truly full of personality. He’s crate trained (can comfortably stay in his crate for up to 9 hours) and fully potty trained, which makes him a great fit for a structured home. He’s also trained with both a prong collar and e-collar—he understands commands well, though his recall is still a work in progress. This guy loves to play. Whether it’s tug-of-war, chewing on his favorite toys, going on long walks, or exploring wide open fields, Duncan is always ready for an adventure. Despite his energy, he’s incredibly loyal and stays close, you won’t have to worry about him running off. When playtime is over, Duncan turns into a total cuddle bug. He loves being close (like, really close) and thrives on affection and personal connection. Duncan does have seasonal allergies and occasional ear infections, but they’re well-managed with medication. He would do best in a home with adults or older kids

Story

I got my German Shepherd from a breeder in 2018, and he has been part of my family ever since. He is almost 8 years old and has always been a very loyal and intelligent dog. Like many shepherds, he bonds very strongly to his person and does best with structure and consistency. Unfortunately, he struggles with reactivity and aggression toward unfamiliar people and other animals. Because of this, he would need a home with someone who is experienced with German Shepherds or working breeds and who understands how to properly manage introductions and boundaries. He would do best in a calm environment with an experienced handler, ideally as the only pet. Once he trusts someone, he is very loyal, attentive, and protective of his people. I would describe him as intelligent, strong-willed, watchful, and deeply devoted to the person he bonds with.

Story

Looking for a loving home for my 2-year-old Aussie doodle. She’s gold, playful, good with other dogs and babies. She had some bleeding issues in October, we suspected it could be kidney stones, a left over ovary from a bad spay procedure or a UTI but after X-rays and urine samples, the vet couldn't find a cause. She hasn’t had any bleeding issues since then but I want to be transparent. I'm rehoming her because, with school , a full time job and being a mom, I don't have the time to give her the attention she deserves. She needs to be let out 5-7 times a day due to her weak bladder and I only have time for 3. I'm hoping to find a family with more time to care for her.
