German Shepherd Dog Collie

Male, 1 yr 1 mo
Riverside, CA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Pongo is a Shepherd Collie Mix who was pulled from Moreno Valley Animal Shelter and was there since the beginning of July. From Pongo's foster: " I had been visiting him at the shelter for almost 2 months and no interest.. I watched him get better from a virus and pull through and still no one. He was always so well behaved. Would sit when I asked. Was loyal on the first day I met him just chill and would do his business and come back to you and lay down below you. He's such a calm dog for being at such a loud shelter. Not reactive to people nor dogs. Walks well on the leash. Can you ask for more of a perfect dog??? He was scared of the stairs when he came home but conquered it like a champ on his first night! Pongo, you're such a great dog! You make me feel like I'm going to foster fail with you

Story
Reese was confiscated by animal control from a home when the people couldnt keep up with their own lies. The AC officer called us to see if we could take her instead of puttin her in the shelter. Of course we said yes to that sweet Face!! She is such a mellow puppy, she is playful but listens very well. She is super cuddly, loves to climb in your lap and will sleep on your pillow above your head at night. She is crate trained as well. We are currently working on potty training but she has already figured out the doggy door! Did we mention how smart she is? She is very independent and does well on her own. She also does very well with cats and dogs. She has been socialized with people, dogs, cats and kids. If interested in meeting Reese, what are you waiting for? Fill out the adoption application quick!

Duke was dumped at a truck yard. He stayed in the same location for a week waiting for his owners to return. We tried to catch him several times all week and finally after 5 days were successful. We took him to the vet immediatly as we thought he had been hit by a car since he had a leg injury. Thankfully no fractures just soft tissue Damage. He has an injured tendon. So he will just need to rest for a couple weeks with some meds and he will be back to his good self again. He got groomed the next day and oh man what a drama king! HAHA ! He is such a good boy! He knows basic commands and is non reactive with cats, dogs, and is friendly with all animals, kids and people! If interested in Duke, please complete our adoption application and we will contact you back within 24 hours.

Belgian Malinois Shepherd (Unknown Type)

Male, 1 yr 10 mos
Riverside, CA
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Redley was a dog we pulled moments before being Euthanized at the deadly shelter! See our social media for his freedom video! Redley is a very sweet boy! He can be a little hyper when he first meets you, but after the initial excitement wears off after a few minutes he is a good boy who just wants human connection and a companion! He is eager to please. He would thrive from some routine and repetition. He is good with other dogs, likes to chase cats that run, but is ok with brave kitties that don't run. Redley would do vets in a home with a back yard. No Apartments. He would be an ideal dog for an active person, a hiker, runner, active outdoorsy type person/ family. If you would like to meet this sweet boy and possibly consider giving him a great home, please start by completing the adoption application and someone will call you within 48 hours if approved.
