Story
Meet PEQUE Peque is an 9‑month‑old sweetheart who’s just as clever as she is adorable. She’s food‑motivated, eager to learn, and thriving with training. She’s already doing great with crate training, leash walking, and potty training, and she proudly shows off her “sit.” She’s now learning “stay,” “come,” and “let’s go” — and picks up new things fast. This brave little girl had a tough start to life. She was born on the streets and found living under a bridge with her siblings. Despite everything, Peque is all heart — resilient, social, and ready to love her people fiercely. Peque absolutely loves to run, play, and splash around outside, especially when she has another dog to play with. She’s done wonderfully in training, has great recall, and even started working on off‑leash skills. At under 35 pounds, Peque is a perfect “medium-small” size. She gets along well with other dogs and kids, and her German Shepherd side shines through in all the best ways — loyal, loving, protective, and deeply connected to her humans. If you’d like to meet Peque, please submit an adoption application at: 👉 www.usdogcoalition.org/adoptions Peque is ready for her forever family — could it be yours?

Story
Where are my pittie mix lovers? This sweet girl is looking for a place to call home—even a foster home until her forever family finds her. Meet Ginger: She’s been let down time and time again, and her life hasn’t been easy. But despite it all, Ginger is full of love and adores every human she meets. She can get a little annoyed with dogs that aren’t super friendly, but with a calm canine sibling, she does great! Ideally, Ginger would be the only fur baby, but she’s proven she can coexist—she lived happily with a gentle giant and even with two other dogs. Sure, she has that classic pittie energy, but that just makes her fun and full of life! If you’d like to foster Ginger until adoption or give her the forever home she deserves, please reach out. Let’s make her holidays bright! 📧 wilma@usdogcoalition.org

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Online Adoption Application › Hello! My name is Joanie! These nice people rescued me from a bad situation. I lived in a hole outside with about 80 other dogs. My life was strictly having puppies and trying to survive. I also was missing a lot of hair. If you want to see what I did look like, go to my last picture. I'm much happier now. I have all my hair back. My foster mommy says I am uber sweet but need some confidence. I didn't really know a person until I came here so I can be a little shy. I do need a home with a fenced backyard. Since I am shy, I prefer to have my own space when I go potty or walk around. Don't get me wrong though, my favorite place to be is inside in my crate. I like being around my foster parents. I will run from my crate to be with them then run back to my kennel. I will do this until I'm tired. Maybe those are those zoomie things I hear people talking about. When I'm not with foster mommy or daddy my favorite past time is destroying toys. I love to take all the stuffing out and show my foster parents how proud I am. I think they want me to be the fastest toy destroyer ever! Foster mommy said when I went on the leash to the vet, I did better than she ever expected. I still don't love that place though. They have pointy thingy's there. I think they are called needles. My ideal home would be with one or two people that could give me all their love and a fenced in backyard just for me and maybe another doggy friend.
