Brindle, bright-eyed, and full of heart, Diesel is the best mix of athlete and goofball. He loves people, makes soft eye contact, and is eager to work for treats or toys-classic Dutchie! His favorite toy is a blue & pink rugby ball. He has done well meeting friendly dogs with proper introductions and respectful play. He gets excited fast and will need someone to give him proper outlet and structure. We recommend a working-breed-savvy, active home that enjoys training and enrichment. Teens/older kids who can participate in his routine could work; cats are unknown. After activity, he settles nicely and leans in for affection-loyal, attentive, and ready to be someone's shadow.

Story
Xena is a playful, goofy puppy who loves to demonstrate her zoomie technique and then quickly return to you for a tasty treat. She is energetic but has a good off switch inside. She is a bit cautious and prefers to take her time to get comfortable with new things, so time and patience win the day. She will be at her best in a moderately active environment and would do well with other dogs that have a similar play style.

Obie (REDUCED FEE)

Dutch Shepherd German Shepherd Dog

Male, Senior
Tracy, CA
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Obie (short for Old Boy) is a sweet old boy looking for a comfy couch to call his own. He has a beautiful fluffy coat that he enjoys a nice brushing of. Obie is a quiet and dignified couch potato. He is fine with everyone but particularly loves men. He loves ear scratches and a nice snooze. Obie is currently on medication for seizures. He takes this medication twice a day and it has greatly reduced his occurrence of seizures. He takes his medications easily if hidden in cream cheese, sour cream or yogurt. Obie is house trained with a doggie door right now. He enjoys spending his afternoons outside relaxing. He can be scared by loud things like fireworks but has done well with CBD as needed for this very specific anxiety. Obie does not really care for treats or toys. Treats he has enjoyed for training include lamb roast, mashed potatoes and eggs. He thinks vegetables are yucky. He seems to have been new to dog food but has taken to it well with some patience. Obie previously lived with another large dog and got along well with her. She would even snap at him sometimes and he would not really react. He simply wanted to be her friend. We also believe Obie will be fine with mannerly children. He has met toddlers and takes care to not knock them over. When meeting cats indoors, Obie was excited but did not necessarily exhibit high prey drive. He allowed his foster mom to call him back as she removed the cat. When he sees cats outdoors he like to try to chase them, though this is true of most dogs (even those that live with cats). All Better World Rescue dogs qualify for private and/or group training at no additional cost to help ensure a successful adoption. To meet Obie, fill out our short adoption application: www.betterworldrescue.org/adoption-application Once an application is filled out, our volunteers will reach out to you within one business day to answer any questions and schedule a meet and greet.

Please apply to foster or adopt! Jude finished his training and doing so great! He was in a program for over 60 days and has proven to be ready for a foster or adoptive home. Trainers are able to give some sessions to show what he has learned! We would love to get him in a home soon. Jude is about 2 years old now, neutered, vacinated and chipped. He was rescued from the Avenal animal shelter, where he spent nine months in the shelter as a 6 month old puppy. The boredom and distress he experienced are unimaginable. Now that Jude has been out of the shelter, he has learned and adapted very well. He had a couple foster homes that did not work out for him. Since then, he has been with RFRD training and done very very well! You could see such wonderful results from the training program! He has been decompressed with food nearby and we know he could find a forever home now! We’ve seen promising progress at the training facility. He is now looking for a furever home or foster. He is located in San Jose ca and very dog friendly, he also comes with training, one on one sessions and would do best with older children if any. He is good with people and learned to be open to new surroundings. Jude Walks well on a leash, potty trained and would love to meet you! He is a tall handsome boy that just needed a chance. Please apply to meet Jude! Located San Jose caSeptember 2, 2025, 9:02 am

Story
Adopt Aura!! Aura is ready for a home! Aura is a special girl with no hind legs. She will need a special person who could give her what she needs. Aura can get around pretty fast despite not having back legs. She was first found in Modesto Ca. Where somebody had left her in a shed with no food or water. She then was so-called rescued and taken to the house of horrors in Arizona. Where she was also neglected and tortured amongst 54 or more other dogs. She then went to Arizona Humane Society where she awaited rescue again. She had no rescue backing and that is where she joined our pack. Her amazing foster mom had said yes to fostering and that was the best thing that has happened to Aura! Aura loves to be with her and then foster family. She is very affectionate when she wants to be but it took her a while to gain trust. She was spayed and also had some dental work done. The ortho surgeon took a look at her back legs at UC DAVIS. She barely has any metatarsals left on the left leg. She had prosthetics that are being made and should arrive soon! She does not like to sit in her wheelchair but foster mom was donated a very big Stroller. Where Aura likes to go for a stroll in. Aura might be around six years old or younger but because of the neglect it shows on her body. Aura is looking for a family that could let her be her. She has been through enough and we don’t want to force her to do anything. She takes time to trust but is very sweet. She is dog friendly but sometimes is picky. She gets along with most dogs but doesn’t like to share her attention that you are giving her but who would blame her. She likes her warm big bed and likes to eat. Aura would do best with a house with carpet where she can get around. Concrete does hurt her nubs and she would need booties or a wrap. Aura also likes to go potty on the grass where it’s soft for her to try and stand to go. She is mostly potty trained but because of her limbs she sometimes can go where it’s more comfortable. Aura would love a home of her own. To meet Miss Aura please apply with our adoption app!September 2, 2025, 9:02 am
