Story
Riley (A142172) is a 14-week-old German Shepherd mix who weighed 20.7 pounds on intake! 06/27/26 Miss Riley, previously known as Pippa, was brought back to the shelter because her most recent family realized they did not have the time to devote to raising a puppy. They described Riley as being an outgoing, friendly and affectionate pup! She knows some basic commands, such as sit and lay down. However, Riley is looking for a home that can continue helping her with potty training and kennel training. She was said to do well in the car, but she has been known to dig and chew. These are typical puppy behaviors that can be curbed with proper mental and physical enrichment and access to appropriate chew toys. Riley was said to do well with babies, kids and strangers. She was also said to be playful towards other dogs. She does not have experience with other types of animals, so slow and controlled introductions are advised. Riley's previous owners stated she loves salmon, and she loves attention and playing. If you are interested in meeting Miss Riley, please give us a call!05/18/26 This little nugget is Pippa! Pippa was surrendered to the shelter after another dog nipped her in the home. She was assessed by the shelter vet and cleared for adoption! In typical puppy fashion she will need continued help with potty training, kennel training, basic commands, and especially positive socialization! Puppies are a lot of work, but worth the reward. She is going to need plenty of mental and physical stimulation as she ages to live her best life. If you are interested in meeting Pippa, please let us know! June 27, 2026, 11:53 pm

Story
Denny (A142532) is a 1-year-old German Shepherd x Chow Chow mix who weighed 48 pounds on intake! 06/23/26 This playful boy is Denny! Denny arrived at the shelter after being found running around South Davis Park! Sadly, no one came forward as his owner, so he is now looking for his new place to call home! While at the park, he was the master of keep away, so he will need a home that can keep him contained – supervised in a fenced-in yard, on a leash, or secure tie-out. He does enjoy going outside on his walks and is looking for a home that can provide him with plenty of mental and physical stimulation. We also encourage his next owner to bring him to a basic obedience class with a certified trainer to continue working on his manners. Denny has done well at keeping his kennel clean/accident free while at the shelter indicating that he may already be housebroken. However, we do not know this for a fact and keep in mind that there is always an adjustment period. Since Denny was a stray, we also do not know if he has experience around children or other animals. Please ensure you are making appropriate introductions with all! There are some great resources on the Fear Free Happy Homes website! If you are interested in meeting Denny, please let us know!

Story
Moose is the absolute best—sweet, goofy, and always happy to be by your side! When he first arrived at the shelter, he was a little unsure of everything, but once he realized he was safe, his wonderful personality began to shine. Now he’s one of the happiest guys around, always ready for a walk, a game of fetch, or a good scratch session with his favorite people. Moose has become a regular on our Miles & Mutts adventures and has proven himself to be an excellent hiking buddy. He loves getting outside and exploring, but he’s equally content to relax and enjoy some quality time with his people. He’s the perfect balance of adventurous and easygoing! This handsome boy has done wonderfully meeting new people and has blossomed into a friendly, affectionate companion. He also has a generally friendly demeanor with other dogs and enjoys saying hello. If you have another dog at home, we’re happy to arrange a meet-and-greet to help everyone get acquainted. Moose appears to be potty trained, though like any newly adopted dog, he’ll need a little time and patience to settle into his new routine. He walks nicely on a leash and knows several cues, including sit, down, come, and shake—what a smart boy! If you’re looking for a loyal adventure buddy who’s just as happy hitting the trails as he is soaking up love, Moose may be your perfect match. Come meet this wonderful gentleman—you’ll fall in love just like we did!

Story
Justice was able to be seen by Dr Snyder with Polar Eyes Veterinary Ophthalmologyduring his recent visit to Fairbanks. After a careful examination Justice’s diagnosis to her left eye is Phthisical globe – secondary to previous full thickness corneal perforation A phthisical globe is the end-stage, shrunken, and disorganized eye resulting from severe trauma, such as a full-thickness corneal perforation. Caused by chronic inflammation, low ocular pressure, and, in this case, severe perforation, which leads to permanent vision loss. I cannot imagine the pain this puppy was put through. Since she was not surrendered when it happened her eye is no longer painful. If she would have landed in a safe place after it happened surgery would have been done immediately. But now we are dealing with an eye which is no longer painful. So to schedule a surgery to remove it serves no purpose. If, however in her future her eye develops chronic conjunctivitis or discharge the removal of her eye needs to be strongly considered. Even with everything she has endured in her life, she is a very happy go-lucky girl. She greets everyone with enthusiasm, she is not shy, her tail is always going. And that’s the same with her brother. Both puppies have fantastic personalities. They kennel wonderfully, use the dog door to go potty and play together nicely. They are not a bonded pair and do not need to be adopted together. I was told they are German Shepherd / Malinois mix. They are both available for adoption. Folks who have an approved application on file can arrange a visit with one. Applications are found on the rescue’s website at agsrescue.com under forms. I want to again Thank Dr Snyder for fitting us in his busy schedule while he was here in Fairbanks, and for taking his time to explain everything in order for me to understand Justice’s medical needs.

Story
Born on 2/5/2025. Meeko came into the rescue from his breeder and was very shy and fearful. He continues to work on trusting people he doesn't know. He has a great boy who really wants to please, he loves playing with the other dogs and puppies here at the rescue. He kennels, uses a dog door to go potty, rides great in the truck. He will need to continue working on more socialization with new people and new places. He will do best with an experienced owner and a home who has a stable dog to help him feel confident. Once you gain his trust his fun goofy side comes out and will make you laugh daily. More photos can be found on the rescue's facebook page He is in the Fairbanks area An approved application must be on file before one can arrange a visit. Applications and more information about the process are found on the rescue's website at agsrescue.com
