You say you’re looking for a dog???  That’s amazing!  Because I am a dog just trying to make fetch happen! I consider myself a treat connoisseur and can spot one (or a squirrel) a hundred yards out all the while saving the world, one bark at a time.

Story
Please contact Desiree (lostangelsanimalrescue04@yahoo.com) for more information about this pet.This is Cocoa a stunning 2 - 3 year old liver colored female GSD that is seeking her new person.  She found herself in a shelter and was extremely thin when she came in to rescue. She spend 10 days boarding at a veterinary hospital due to us not having an available foster.  She also completed a board and train program.  Once she was placed with her foster it was very apparent that there was an underlying health issue that had caused her extreme weight loss and was soon diagnosed as an EPI dog. Good news is it's easily managed with an enzyme powder sprinkled on each meal.  She has already gone from 50.8 lbs to 80 lbs in just 5 weeks. Cocoa is very intelligent and eager to please. She would do best with an experienced handler, no kids and an only pet.  She can be selective of people and seems to do best with females. Her training with Kyser K9 is life long and a new owner will be able to work with them and have access to training sessions. For more information, please email lostangelsanimalrescue04@yahoo.com or submit an online application at www.lostangelsanimalrescue.org to pursue an adoption.  Adoption Donation: $300.00 October 2, 2025, 9:13 pm

Story
Dyna came to us as we took her in when she was about 5 months old! A family of three kiddos, two other dogs and two cats, took no time to become family. She is now 3.5 years old! Still full of lots of energy and a fenced in backyard to run often to get her energy out is a MUST! She is a great listener but you must stay on her commands at all times. Loves to cuddle! Vocal will talk to you if you ask her something ! Doesn’t really bark unless something unusual is going on to make sure to let you know! Once she learns her boundaries in the yard she is very good at staying within those boundaries. Within the last year been changes in the home and a move into an apartment which has left her very sad to not be outside where she loves to relax and missing a backyard to run and play in! FENCED IN YARD is a must! Lots of LOVE to give is a must!

PLEASE READ THE ANIMAL’S PROFILE AND ALL NOTES BELOW BEFORE APPLYING! ADOPT ME! I'm Lolita Hi friends, my name is Lolita! I’m a 5-year-old German Shepherd girl with a big heart and an even bigger love for the outdoors. I’m the perfect mix of playful and calm — I love going on walks, stretching my legs, and then just chilling by your side. I’m already potty trained and leash trained, but I’m still working on learning my commands (I promise I’m super smart, so I’ll pick it up quick!). I'm very friendly — I just love having friends around, as long as they are patient with me and know to take it slow! My dream home? One with a fenced yard so I can run and play safely, or a family who loves to take me on outdoor adventures. I’d be happiest with an active family who wants to bring me along for all the fun! If you’re looking for a loving, loyal, and super sweet best friend, I think I’d be paw-fect for you. Adoption FEE: $0 which includes her spay, microchip, and vaccines.
