Story
Meet Achoo! This 4-year-old shepherd mix is the perfect mix of playful and mellow. She’s happy to curl up next to you on the couch (or climb right into your lap!) and will greet you with excited wiggles, jumps, and plenty of affection. According to her foster, she’s mostly housetrained and crate trained, knows “sit,” absolutely loves car rides, and is great out on walks. Achoo can be a little shy with new people and prefers slow, calm introductions, so she’d do best in a quieter home with an adopter who can help her feel safe and seen. Once she settles in, her sweet, silly personality really shines! I’m available for a 10 day adoption trial!

Ice is a handsome 4yearold German Shepherd with a huge personality and an even bigger heart. Ice is loyal, intelligent, protective, affectionate, goofy, and endlessly entertaining. He’ll keep you laughing with his silly antics one minute and make you feel completely safe the next.Ice is extremely playful and energetic, always ready for an adventure, a game of fetch, or carrying around one of his favorite stuffed animals. Even though he looks strong and confident, he’s truly a giant baby at heart who loves attention and being close to his people.He can live with other dogs if they all get along. Ice would thrive with someone who understands the German Shepherd breed, lives an active lifestyle, and has the time and patience to continue training with him, especially regarding territorial behaviors.Rehoming him is an incredibly difficult decision, but it’s being done out of love and the desire to give him the life and environment he deserves.

Story
Frankie has been our beloved dog for the past four years, and with love, hope, and heartbreak, we are searching for the right permanent home for him. We adopted him from a foster home after bonding with him over several visits and learning he had already been rehomed multiple times. Frankie experienced severe trauma as a puppy, including being mauled by another dog, which left him highly reactive and aggressive around unfamiliar dogs.We have provided him with a loving home and worked with multiple trainers over the years to manage his anxiety and behavior. While he has made progress, he still requires consistent structure and careful management. Since welcoming our baby girl two years ago, meeting Frankie’s needs has become increasingly difficult.Frankie is incredibly loving with people he trusts—joyful, goofy, athletic, and full of personality. We hope to find him a calm, experienced home where he can truly thrive and finally have the forever home he deserves.

Story
Gushen is a striking young Malinois raised as part of our Paws with Purpose project dedicated to pairing dogs as companions for veterans, with the potential to grow into full-service roles. From the start, he’s been raised at a ranch with structure, love, and purpose. Unlike many high-energy Malinois, Gushen has a calm, steady presence. He enjoys lounging at your side, napping in the sun, and watching the world with quiet confidence. Yet, when it’s time to play, he runs with power, engages the pack, and shows the athleticism the breed is known for. Respectful, non-destructive, and rarely vocal, Gushen communicates more through posture and awareness than noise, a grounded dog who adapts to the energy around him. Because he was raised with the goal of one day joining a veteran, we are especially seeking a foster family to continue his training and socialization. We also welcome qualified adopters who may not be veterans but can provide a stable, structured, and loving forever home.
