German Shepherd Dog puppies and dogs in Connecticut

Looking for a furry BFF who's all about adventures, is smart as a whip, lover girl with everyone she meets, and drop dead gorgeous?! Well do we have exactly what you're looking for! Ari Honey is all of those things and so much more! For starters, she is absolutely stunning! So much so that it was hard to narrow down her profile pictures because every single one was total perfection! She loves to strike a pose for the camera and will even give you the cutest head tilts for that perfect shot. So get your phone storage ready before you bring this girly home because your camera roll is going to be filled with Ari Honey headshots. Watch her video and fall head over heels for this gorgeous gal: https://youtu.be/j77hSmm1enU?si=xg32JD-h9KUYY_BD Ari Honey is believed to be a GSD/Belgian Malinois mix approximately 5 years old and currently weighs 54 lbs. She is a rescue dog and with any rescue it's always a mystery and we cannot guarantee breed or age. Just based off her looks and personality along, the ideal adopter for Ari will be someone with Belgian Malinois experience. She is super smart and incredibly connected to her person, making her the ultimate doggy partner. She's a pro at training and already knows all the basics like sit, come, leave it, and more. Plus, she walks like a dream on a leash, staying attentive to her handler every step of the way. She has also shown us that she has incredible house manners and is comfortable in her crate. She walks right in with not hesitation! Consider Ari Honey your devoted partner and crime ready to join you on all of life's adventures. But don't think Ari is all work and no play! She's just medium-energy and enjoys a bit of exercise each day to keep her happy. Whether it's hanging out on the couch for a Netflix marathon, exploring the yard, playing fetch, or going for leash walks and car rides, she's up for anything as long as she's with you. What Ari loves most of all is hearing how good she is – your praise and positive vibes mean the world to her. She's motivated by your connection and wants nothing more than to be your faithful sidekick. Ari is dog-friendly and all the boys love her, who can blame them?! She's beautiful, has the best personality, and brings that Beyonce confidence to the yard that all the boys can't resist. All of Ari's boyfriends are playful, happy go-lucky, goofy guys that love to bounce around, play chase, enjoy the occasional rumble and tumble, and they are also quite the gentleman type that will take play breaks on their own and respect Ari's boundaries when she's done playing. For the most part, Ari is enjoying the sunshine and fresh air while the other pups around her are playing or she can be found getting all the attention from the people around her. Even when she has found a boyfriend she likes, Ari enjoys their company and will play every so often. In a home, she will do best with a happy go-lucky male that will play with her and also a boy toy that will save a spot for her on the couch. Bonus points if the other dog in the home will snuggle up for a nap right along side her! If you don't have other dogs, that's fine too! She does not need the company of other dogs to help her feel comfortable and open up nor does she need another dog to fulfill her energy needs. She is a confident love bug all on her own and will be ready for couch snuggles after an adventure or long walk around the neighborhood. Ari will thrive with a semi-active family that enjoys frequent outdoor activities such as hiking, camping, going to the beach or even casual play time in the yard. A family or individual who appreciates nature and is ready to explore parks, trails, or snowy landscapes would be perfect. While she loves the great outdoors and loves to explore, Ari is also an affectionate gal at home and loves to burry her head into you for love. If you enjoy the outdoors but also cherish time spent relaxing indoors, Ari is the perfect fit. She would also do best in a home with a backyard as well. A place where she can stretch her legs, check out all of her favorite sniff spots, and roll around in the grass and sunbathe during those beautiful summer days. We are willing to test Ari Honey with anything you need us to in order to ensure it's a perfect match. We can make anything happen! Just let us know.

This cutie is Barnaby Nina. He is currently 3 months old and weighs approximately 10 pounds. We think they may be a German Shepherd / Labrador Retriever mix*, but with rescue it’s a guess! What matters most is that they are adorable and are one the MOST desperate in the entire US based on statistics for where this puppy is from. Shelters in this area are having to euthanize puppies. So, this puppy needs you! If you choose a puppy from us, it saves their life as well as the life of another in its place. Watch Barnaby's playful personality here: https://youtu.be/OFHXHQu55P8?si=MiGD868DRk4XUWHC Barnaby is playful, sweet, curious, and cuddly. He loves to play with his sibling and take lots of naps. Eat, sleep, play, repeat- such is puppy life! We pride ourselves in being able to give you good personality and behavioral information to help ensure this baby is the right fit for you. You are also welcome to do a Facetime call to meet your new baby before signing paperwork! Barnaby is still very young and will need a family that can commit to training, socialization and all the dedication puppyhood requires. A puppy is discovering new things that shape their personalities with each passing day. Implementing routine, structure, setting boundaries, and proper socialization is key from the start. We require a commitment from adoptive families to crate train their new puppy starting immediately when arriving at their new home, which will help with potty training, energy management, and the overall development of a well-rounded adult dog. You will be guaranteed to get lots of kisses in return from your new best friend! Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?

🌟 Meet Annie — the bright-eyed beauty with a heart full of love and a little sparkle of silliness! 🌟 Annie is a gorgeous black shepherd with a sleek, shiny coat that gleams in the sunshine and eyes the color of warm brown sugar — the kind that seem to glow when she looks at you. She’s a little smaller than your average shepherd, but what she lacks in size she more than makes up for in personality. Annie has that classic shepherd charm: loyal, people-loving, and incredibly smart, with just a touch of goofy flair that makes her irresistibly endearing. From the moment you meet her, Annie’s gentle, affectionate nature shines through. She adores people and loves to be close to them — the kind of dog who will press her head into your hand for pets, lean against your leg for comfort, and gaze up at you with that “you’re my favorite human” look. She’s confident, kind, and always ready to make new friends, whether they’re people or other pups. Watch her video here, then come back to read more ! https://youtu.be/tlXyp2cd8Nc?si=Ae3-8pO5R6Yd-IuC Annie has done wonderfully with other dogs in playgroups! She’s confident and social, happy to romp and explore, but also knows when to take a breather and read her dog friends’ cues. She’d do best with another dog who’s friendly and easygoing — maybe a goofy boy who appreciates a gal that can keep up with him but also knows how to chill. She loves playtime, but she’s not pushy once everyone finds their rhythm, and she’s respectful when reminded to take it down a notch. She’s also been great with kids! Annie even went for a walk with a seven-year-old and did beautifully. She’s gentle and sweet but can still have bursts of excitement — she hasn’t quite mastered the art of keeping all four paws on the floor when she’s thrilled to see you. Because of that, she’d be best with kids who can handle a little happy hopping from a pup who just loves them so much she can’t help herself. No cats for Miss Annie - she is much too interested and will likely want to play with any feline residents. True to her shepherd roots, Annie is smart as can be. She listens well, responds to leash corrections, takes treats gently, and loves having something to do. She’s a quick learner who wants to make her people proud — and her mix of brains and heart makes her the kind of companion who’s just as ready for training sessions and hikes as she is for lazy cuddle days on the couch. Annie could do well in an apartment as long as she gets her daily exercise and adventures, but she’d also love a yard to stretch her legs and enjoy some sunshine. Whether she’s walking politely beside you, greeting her dog friends at playgroup, or curling up after a long day, Annie’s true joy is simply being part of the family. She’s the perfect mix of brains, beauty, and love — a sweetheart with a playful spark who’s ready to be your best friend for life. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will make you laugh, keep you company, and fill your home with affection, Annie is your girl. 💛 Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?

I feel like this boy barely needs an introduction, you likely sat front row for the beginning of his rescue and have been rooting for him since day one. If you haven’t had the pleasure of watching Aspen's glow-up, let me introduce you to the sweetest, most adoring, affectionate, gentle soul you could ever meet. You know those dogs where, if you only saw them today, you’d never guess what they’ve been through? That’s Aspen. Take a look at his sweetness in motion then come back to read more- https://youtu.be/5BCtSDrswHo Estimated to be about a year old and weighing in around 26 lbs, he is a petite husky-mix boy who came into rescue in truly heartbreaking shape. He was found abandoned in a kennel on the side of a rural road, covered in terrible mange, open infested wounds, and hanging on by a thread. Our rescue fundraised for his care, a foster stepped up, and slowly but surely Aspen traded in pain for comfort, fear for love, and survival mode for joy. Now? He’s in full glow-up mode and has his very own fan club on social media. Ask anyone who has met him or cared for him and they will tell you- you would never know this dog had the start he did. Aspen is happy, loving, trusting, and so sweet it almost doesn’t feel real. Aspen is an easy leash walker with a soft, thoughtful energy. He does still need some leash confidence and practice, especially in new places, but he is off to such a great start! With people, Aspen is cautious at first in a very gentle way. He takes a minute to decide if you’re safe, and then, once you crouch down and let him come to you, you’ll feel him quietly shift into, “Okay… I think I like you.” We are talking 15 seconds before he is trying to climb right into our lap. He comes up soft and careful, asking for affection and sharing it politely even when other dogs are crowding the space. If someone gets pushy about attention, Aspen simply walks away. With other dogs, he’s social but not rowdy. Aspen is fostered with two dogs, one is his age and perfect speed and they happily run and bounce together. Aspen did great meeting everyone during a recent playgroup. He didn’t bark or get worked up, even with dogs playing and running around him. He didn’t jump into the chaos much himself- he preferred standing near his people, watching, and taking it all in. With encouragement, he did loosen up enough to run a bit in the back of the yard. He is dog friendly but will just take a bit before his playful side comes out with a new friend. Thats okay! He also shares treats politely with other dogs and showed zero resource guarding. Toys? He has recently discovered the joy of dog toys and has the gentlest approach with his toy, treating them so caringly as he carries then around. For cats, we are not saying no or clearly yes right now. When he met our house cat it was easy to see he was cautious- almost fearful-and approached very slowly. He has lived with an avoidant cat before and meeting our house cat shows us he does not have experience with a cat and his reaction to one in a home is hard to guage. If you are interested and have cats, we will arrange a visit with our Kitty Committee for a sleepover where a more controlled and careful observation. Aspen would love a home with a yard, and we could see him doing well in the right apartment situation with an adopter willing to invest in his leash confidence and daily exercise. He’s still a young pup and has plenty of room to grow, mentally and physically, so continued socialization and movement will be important for him. A medium-energy dog friend would be a great match, basically, friendly but not overwhelming, who can help show him the ropes without pushing too hard. He is also great with kids and has lived with kids age 5-14 who like everyone else, became his biggest fans. A family with a calm home life, lot’s of friends and adventures would be amazing for him. Aspen is the epitome of why rescue is our favorite breed- he is resilient, gentle, a little bit wise beyond his years, and still completely open-hearted. If you’re looking for a soft, soulful dog with a glow-up story and a fan club cheering him on, Aspen is ready to trade “rescued” for simply “beloved”- with you. Ready to welcome Aspen home?

Meet Ellie — the Loyal Brainiac Shepherd With a Heart of Gold! If you’ve ever dreamed of having your very own shadow, personal security detail, emotional support supervisor, and bathroom-monitoring specialist… allow us to introduce Ellie — a five-year-old German Shepherd with the loyalty level set firmly at stage-five clinger (in the cutest way possible). Ellie is a certified smarty-pants. She’s incredibly food-motivated (like… will work for snacks), which makes training her an absolute dream. Pair those shepherd genes with a brain that is always online, and you get a dog who basically reads your mind. She’s the girl who looks at you with those wise, soft shepherd eyes like she already knows the plan for the day — and probably already made a better one. Watch Ellie’s video to see what she’s all about! https://youtu.be/-v0bv_4rvvQ?si=HHE1mizQtTPRy4YW Ellie is a mellow, respectful, go-with-the-flow kind of dog around other pups. She met a big confident male? No problem. A bouncy excited female who thought Ellie was a trampoline? Still no problem. A smaller dog being wildly rude and all up in her space? Ellie said, “Ma’am… please,” and went on with her day. Even when another dog put way too much pressure on her with overly persistent sniffing, Ellie handled it like a total champ. She’s not a high-energy, wrestle-mania kind of gal — she’s more of a “let’s vibe together, then maybe we can be goofy later” type. In her foster home she enjoys hanging out and playing in the backyard once she warms up. She’s perfectly happy living with other dogs who respect her pace, but she’d also be just as happy being someone’s one-and-only. Ellie is excellent on leash (she’s sensitive to leash pressure, which makes guiding her super easy), and she’d do wonderfully in a house or an apartment thanks to her calm, steady energy. Ellie lives with a young child in her foster home and does great. She just needs dog-savvy kiddos who understand boundaries — like when she’s in the mood for pets and when she’s like, “Actually, no thank you, tiny human.” There’s no strict age requirement — it’s all about respectful kids who know how to love a dog the right way. Ellie was way too interested in the resident cat during her test, so she will need a cat-free home. Ellie warms up slowly, but once she’s in… she’s ALL in. This girl loves her foster family with her whole heart. She’s gentle, goofy in the most wholesome way, and genuinely wants nothing more than a person or family to adore forever. If you want: ✨ a loyal shadow ✨ a smart, easy-to-train partner ✨ a calm, mellow, soulful shepherd ✨ a dog who will stand by you through everything …then Ellie is your girl.
