Story
Meg von Oasis is a gorgeous 18 month old Shepherd mix. Meg von Oasis is in a foster home, offsite, and is NOT at our rescue location in Los Angeles. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN Meg von Oasis YOU MUST FILL OUT AN APPLICATION ON OUR WEBSITE: www.sheprescue.org Application link: http://www.sheprescue.org/Application_to_Adopt_a_Dog%20Main.html Based on our experience, Westside's current thinking is to usually match first-time shepherd owners with a mix versus a purebred shepherd. Mixes are "softer" and somewhat more malleable. Exceptions can be made, however, for first-time adopters who show the confidence and leadership tendencies that purebreds will respect and respond to. Counselors have to use good judgment in assessing the attributes of the adopter, as well as of the dog. If you have doubts, get a second opinion from Robin or another experienced counselor.

Story
King is a very sweet and friendly 6 year-old White German Shepherd. He weighs about 75 pounds and needs to gain a few more pounds to be at his perfect weight. He spent almost two years at a shelter, which is very unusual, since shelters are in crisis after the pandemic. The volunteers and shelter staff really liked King and they did their best to extend his time so he wouldn't get put to sleep. While at the shelter, he was very shy and would hide in the back of his kennel when adopters walked by, and that’s the reason why he couldn't find a home: no one got a chance to see him! He is pretty well-behaved in his foster home, not showing any aggression towards people or around food, and having no problem when toys are taken away from him. He is crate-trained and feels safe there, so much so that if the crate door is open, you will find him resting inside the crate by his choice. In his foster home he sleeps in the crate all night and doesn’t make a sound. King loves toys, enjoys carrying them around, and he will bring his toy to his person to initiate a game. He loves attention, so when he wants some attention he will come nudge his person with his nose. He is very gentle with his toys - he licks them , sleeps with them, but doesn’t destroy them. He is an alert dog and will bark if he hears noises. He is good with visitors, too; As long as the door to the yard is open, he goes outside to do his business. In his foster home he has access to the outdoors all day, so he’s had no accidents indoors. . Before ending up at the shelter, King belonged for four years to a family with kids. He was a yard dog, never taken for a walk during all that time, which is the reason for his being shy and skittish outdoors. He never got a chance to learn. We take him out for walks now, but - he is afraid of cars and trucks, so he pulls on the leash to go back home, but slowly, with time and patience, he will learn and become a more confident dog. King is a dominant male. He did ok with submissive dogs, but since all his life , he lived as only dog, so probably best home forhim to be an only dog. Overall, King is a sweet dog that was not given any chance to enjoy life. His world was his yard, and that’s all he knew. Now his life has changed and he has started to learn new things, like the fact that there’s a big world out there and so many things to learn. Even though he is slightly older, it is never too late to learn.

Story
Meet Arli, a beautiful German Shepherd mix with striking features and a heart full of love. Arli's journey has taken her on many adventures, but she's now seeking a forever home where she can share her boundless affection and playful spirit. Arli's story begins with a loving owner who, due to the demands of work-related travel, is unable to provide her with the stable and loving environment she truly deserves. Recognizing Arli's incredible potential for companionship and happiness, her owner has made the difficult decision to rehome her in the hopes of finding a better-suited forever family. Arli is not just your ordinary dog; she's a social butterfly who adores the company of other dogs. Her playful nature and friendly demeanor make her an instant hit at the dog park or during playdates. She thrives on interaction, and her enthusiasm for life is infectious.

Max was rescued from a high-kill shelter where he was dumped by a family member after his owner passed away. This poor guy lost his owner, then lost his home. As a natural guardian dog, Max becomes protective of "his person" so would do best in a home that is experienced with his breed. Max is active, enjoys playing, and loves going on long walks. Max is in need of a loving foster home, or even better, a "Furever" home! Please submit an application if you're interested in meeting Max!

Story
Meet Hyorim👋 (a.k.a Yoonhee in her foster home) with a gorgeous black coat with white milk on the chin/chest/paws. At just 2 months old, she was found on the street in South Korea with her three other siblings including Seungjin. They were taken to a high-kill city shelter and ended up on the euthanasia list. Thankfully, the siblings were rescued right before euthanasia by the rescue team, and Hyorim was sent to her foster family soon after. She has been peacefully living in her foster home with a resident dog almost for a year. Hyorim is patiently waiting for her forever family! > Personality: Sweet, Shy, Calm Hyorim is a shy and cautious pup, so she will need time to gradually adjust to a new home. However, once she opens up to you, you will be in love with her sweet charms. Considering her high dependence on the resident dog of her foster family, she would adapt quickly to the new environment if she is adopted as your second dog. Also, she is such a sweet and curious girl around her foster family. She has a mid-low energy level, so she calmly rests in the house until the time for a walk. > Relationships - with dogs: Dog-friendly and well-mannered with other dogs. She doesn’t play too wild. - with cats: Not interested in cats - with adults/kids: Good with adults including men/ No aggression towards kids. > Walking manners: Generally good. She tends to pull the leash from time to time but has got much improved. > Shedding (on a scale of 1 to 10): 7 > Food allergies/Picky eater: No. She eats everything given! > Potty (indoor/outdoor): Fully housebroken, mainly using pee-pads indoors and going potty outdoors sometimes. > Bathing/Brushing: Very good > Separation anxiety: None for people. She rather shows mild separation anxiety for the resident dog in her foster home, but she’s been improving. > Barking: She is usually really quiet and only barks a little bit when strangers come to the house. > Car rides: She is good with car rides. > Likes/Dislikes:She loves playing with stuffed animals/ropes and enjoys nose work & slow feeder with peanut butter, churu, pet milk! / She is not a fan of noise from outside. > Current Location: In a foster home in South Korea. > Health Issues: No. If you have an open heart and a loving home for Hyorim, please don't hesitate to submit an application now!
