Story

Gandalf - 57 lb, 3 years old, Shepherd mix. This poor guy was a stray; he was caught using a dog trap. He’s shut down in the shelter environment. He’ll need an experienced, patient handler who can help him to decompress and come out of his shell. Gandalf was evaluated by staff; key observations are as follows: Tolerates gentle petting on the head; shut down; shows limited social skills with people. Overall, appears under socialized and a flight risk! Leash walking is currently very uncomfortable; he will resist, yelp, and attempt to hide. Enjoyed spending time in the yard (on leash), tolerated people being present but does not show much enthusiasm or engagement. He did take treats gently from the handler. Tested well with another male (Coffee); they were able to sit in the grass together and relax. He was also introduced to a more energetic female dog, River. He initially growled at her but then was able to coexist and allow some curious sniffing. Any future introductions to other dogs should be slow and supervised. When returning to his kennel, Gandalf walked inside on his own to hide and allowed staff to remove his leash without issue. ##2604285##

Story

Dozer is a neutered male, black/white Mastiff Hi! I'm Dozer! I am deaf! I really don't know how to play. It’s kind of sad. I have a little routine here - I just go in my pen, eat a few bites, drink then run back out for a treat. I like being near my people & will follow you around. I am not interested in playing ball. I really just don't know what to do with myself other than just enjoy life. I am so sweet, according to my foster. So if you don't mind a good-sized velcro dog, I'm your guy! ##2498995##

Story

AL is a blk/tan M German Shepherd Al #A603725 Ball is lifeeeee!! Meet Al! He LOVES his ball. He trots around the yard with it. He chews on it. He entertains himself with it. He plays keep away with it! He wouldn’t trade it for the treats I offered him. Mind you, I brought the good stuff! Commanding him to release it didn’t work either. Spoil him with endless balls and you’ll win his heart! Al is a handsome, friendly, and aloof GSD with moderate-to-high energy. In his kennel, he is curious, engaging, and quiet. Easy to leash up and bring in and out of his kennel. Walks nicely on the leash, too. On the other hand, he does not like being leashed in the yard and can be a spaz, jumping around or trying to chew on it. He didn’t react to dogs when passing the kennels, but showed some barrier reactivity in the yard. Al has a great looking coat, which can be deceiving because when I was petting him, I could feel his spine and ribs! Poor guy needs a healthy diet to put on some weight. Dog tests: Al met a male dog face-to-face and immediately nipped him on the muzzle. We created some distance and re-tried intros. It went a bit better, but Al was a bit on edge. When a female was brought in, Al did much better. He had moments where he was vocal and aloof, yet had polite greetings. Strongly recommend slow intros. Shelter notes: High enerygy. Loves to run around the yard and was obsessed with a ball. Tested with both male and female dogs, see memos. Breed: German Shepherd Sex: Male, unaltered Weight: 62 pounds (underweight) Age: 4 years Not tested with cats ##2632355##

Story

I love her so much READ Watch her youtube video Carmen was pulled for a foster after someone saw her video at Clayton and knew she needed to be saved. She has a non contagious form of mange, which is easily treated with a monthly flea and tick medication, and has been tested three times. Once pulled, it was clear she didn’t tolerate a leash and didn’t like her skin being touched, which is expected with her condition. Staff couldn’t get a leash over her head, so she wasn’t being walked at all. She was taken to the vet, but I chose not to spay her right then because of her skin—healing could have been a problem. Then an angel stepped in to cover one month of boarding at a place the rescue couldn’t afford. The difference has been night and day. When I picked her up for her spay checkup, she was wagging her tail, asking for pets, giving my stepdad kisses, and proving she’s a five star car rider lol Now she loves being touched, the leash is no problem, and she even loves going "bye bye". Her sponsored month at daycare is ending, and she really needs a home where she can grow her hair back and have the same people love her every day. God only knows how badly I wanted to bring her home, but I am full—more than full. Carmen hasn’t had a formal temperament test yet, only through the fence, but yesterday she showed no issues at the vet or walking past other dogs. She is trusting, sweet, and deserves a bed and a home of her own. Meet and greets available If you can give Carmen a foster or forever home, please reach out. She is all snuggles and wagging tails. I know you will love her just as much ##2555735##
