Story
Max (watch my video!) was at a distant overcrowded shelter for over a month when his time was up. He had no options left so we rescued him. All the volunteers adore him. Despite having no walks from his shelter kennel once out he is well behaved and great with other large dogs he met at the shelter and volunteers. He needs time to warm up and feel safe then cooperative loves treats and is lovable. Smart and gorgeous. Max did great during his transport car ride but once at a new place he was nervous and confused. Did take treats. Once he knows you he will be your best friend and bodyguard. Max will need an experienced guardian and a home with a yard. For now no kids. More info. to come as he relaxes and learns. 7/1/22: He is now doing great at his foster home with 2 other GSDs. With time he adjusted to new people at home. He is still leary of of strangers. Bonded to his foster mom. Loves his walks/hikes playing ball and relaxing at his foster home. 9/12/21: Sadly when his potential foster home and her 2 GSDs during their two meets her female GSD did not work out with him. The female is less tolerant of new dogs and wants to be the top dog. Max did great with her male dog and social. He loves treats snuggled being petted and enjoyed the attention. Need basic leash training. Poor Max will continue to board until we can find him an experienced foster home that will give him time to warm up and feel safe. Max is boarding until we can find him an experienced and dedicated foster home. Donations needed to help pay for his boarding. To date since 10/20/21 over $4000. 10/1/21: Our volunteers are visiting Max and taking him out for walks and play yard. Doing great and friendly with 2nd visit with female and male with yummy treats and turkey hot dogs. Max goes to male volunteer for hot dogs long walk and fine being petted. Max is a sweetie with people he knows and trust. Max would be a great hiking and home buddy.YouTube: https://youtu.be/veR-UfNMVfgNovember 4, 2024, 2:12 pm

Story
Ranger was rescued from a distant shelter when his time was running out. He is very friendly dog social smart BFF and great hiking buddy. Ranger is magnificent! Update from his Foster Home: Ranger is an active smart and goofy 3-year-old German Shepherd. He knows all basic obedience loose leash walking skills and has been learning off leash recall. Ranger has gotten along with numerous dogs of all sizes and breeds but hasn't really been interested in play. His main focus in life is his people and his ball. Ranger's ideal home is an active home that knows how to keep his body and his brain exercised. Ranger enjoys daily walks or jogs a game of fetch and weekly hikes and swims. He may even enjoy trying out some dog sports. Despite being an active and adventurous dog Ranger is gentle and calm inside of the home. He is crate trained and enjoys relaxing on his dog bed next to his foster family and their dogs. He knows and listens to commands. Wants to be with person in home. Need tuft crate when left home alone and he will settle. He is GSD at heart and will guard your home to strangers if not properly introduced. Need GSD experienced guardian that understand GSD's natural behavior to protect or alert. He is great meeting people at events and outings with handler. Due to foster home's increased work and school schedule Ranger needs a dedicated foster to adoption home or foster home. He is very well trained knows commands has great recall and smart.April 8, 2025, 12:05 pm

Story
Hansel was rescued from a distant shelter. He has been neglected yet he is very sweet warms up then friendly and cuddles when being carried. Huge thanks to Tama Veterinary Hospital for squeezing him in on the day we rescued him. He was loaded with fleas and had to have capstar to kill all the fleas and has pot belly from worms. Hansel got exam stool test Drontal plus (dewormer) rabies and microchip. Ear infection was cleaned with 2 week ear meds packed in. His foster home had to bath him right away to get rid of the fleas and dirt. Poor Hansel is so young but was neglected with poor diet fleas and worms thus dull coat. He will get extra TLC have dog playmates and get healthy soon at his HERO Foster Home that WFH. Fh cooks home-made foods to add to meals. Onward now to a great happy and spoiled life. 9/30/23 update from his Foster Home: He will try anything without fear as long as he knows I am nearby to keep him safe. He fetches a ball and returns it. His recall is excellent. He is doing very well on a leash. Loves playing in water. Gusto followed his dog buddies right into the water and started swimming. He is very motivated to play with other dogs once introduced properly. Fine with her cat. He is getting lots of socialization opportunities. He is active and need daily brisk long walks and jogs. Foster home thinks he may need active guardians for K9 work or dog sports. Very intelligent curious receptive and high energy. He goes on one leash walk and two off leash walks/hikes per day. No kids because he will chase them. Update: Hansel needs to stay on leash to learn not to want to chase after runners cars or bikes. This is common for some young teens if not trained to ignore. Need one on one training to train impulse control and recall. He will work with a trainer soon for loose leash training. From our GSD experienced volunteers and what we have seen he seems to be a normal smart GSD teen energy but does need active and experienced guardian for daily exercise someone home and focus on one on one training and classes. Dog sports is always fun and great for young dogs. Need to train for recall and other commands. Loves playing with other dogs.November 4, 2024, 2:12 pm

Story
Thanksgiving litter. ð&#194&#159&#194&#141&#194&#129GSD mix Adorable Thanksgiving litter. We rescued these 4 under-age pups out of litter of 13 puppies (only 5 weeks old) from a super over crowded distant shelter on 11/9/24. Someone dumped them all without their mom on 11/4/24 and they were running out of options with no cage space and the shelter cannot care for young pups. All the pups were scared and huddled together at the shelter. Once in their foster home they relaxed and are doing great. They love attention and cuddling. All love their slurry mix food warm bed and playtime at their foster home’s yard for some sunshine. Now they will get to enjoy Thanksgiving in a warm and loving home while they learn. Two are thin but with healthy foods they will soon add some puppy weight. More info. to come. Video on Facebook of the 13 puppies at the shelter. More need rescue and foster homes. 1/22/25 Update: Puppies have lots of energy and are very gentle social and loving. Eager to learn. Pumpkin is more independent than Tater. Loves other dogs loves to cuddle. They love each other and our dog Tony and cat Mindy. They like to go for walks. They sit down if you ask them. 3/5/25 Update: They love their daily walks going hiking going to the beach social snuggling on sofa and playful. Pumpkin and Tater need new foster homes or foster to adoption homes now for one on one training and start training classes. She might be a Carolina Dog and GSD mix.YouTube: https://www.facebook.com/FFRescue/videos/917980536512649March 25, 2025, 12:27 am

Story
Lyle was on the SASA PTS list Sat. 5/13/24 at 4:30 pm so we tagged him to save his life. He was a shelter staff favorite. Now we need a foster home for him ASAP as he is in emergency boarding. Lyle is a super dog and is people friendly. He loves to play then calms - and he loves his pets. He does need some basic training but he seems easy to train and he's a pleaser. He already has learned to sit and wait for treats only gently taking the treat after the release command. Lyle is very pretty and unique with one blue eye. Donations are appreciated to help us pay for his emergency boarding until we find him a foster home. 2/14/25 update. Lyle is finally in a temp. foster home. Doing great and loves following their other dogs. He would do best in a home with another dog buddy. They hang out together which comforts Lyle. When they first took him in he was very nervous and timid. Lyle did great at our showcase events with other dogs around. Now he is learning happy and healthy. His coat is better and softer. Eating healthier and fresh foods which makes a huge difference. He is house trained and crate trained.March 22, 2025, 12:17 pm

Story
Christmas family. Adorable Charity Noelle and Jingle were dumped in the back of a store. So much for the Christmas spirit of kindness. They were cold covered in dirt and nervous and the shelter took them in. We rescued them from the distant shelter. The two females are more out-going. Noelle seems to be the top puppy. Both are doing great got baths lovable playful and now very happy at their foster home. More info. to come as they grow and learn. Pups are not available til after 8 weeks old and they get their vet care. They most likely will grow up to be large adults. Best they get a home with a fenced backyard and active guardian for daily long walks and exercise. Update: Both pups are doing great at their foster home. Noelle needs a new experienced foster home due to long vacations. Learning quick. Smart and playful. Both are learning to go out to yard for potty time and learning to take turns for attention. Both are friendly and social. Been meeting many new people who visit during the Christmas break. They are curious of new sounds and sights and comfortable. Smart pups. Need experienced guardian. Her personality (sensitive) and some body structure/movement has some Great Dane mix qualities but she is not as large. She needs time to warm up to new people and then affectionate. Well behaved at home. Loves going on walks and hikes. Loves playing ball. Once she meets a dog she wants to play. Noelle is too nervous to live with young children. 1/26/25 Update: Noelle is good with foster home's cat. Sometimes Noelle wants to play though... cat doesn't.January 27, 2025, 12:34 am
