Story
Billie is living in a foster home. Please submit an application from our website and/or email dogs@heartlandanimalshelter.org to learn if you are a match! Scroll through her pictures to see all her cute video content! Are you looking for a loyal, chill, fun, and loving companion? If you are, then we already have a lot in common. My name is Billie and I am a beautiful, wise, 7-year-old, German Shepard with a loyal, gentle and nurturing soul. What I dream most about, is being by my special person's side. I see us hanging out in a quiet home where we can be all chill and cozy by the TV, having fun with enrichment activities, and going for lots of walks. I also want to show off my talents, and continue to learn new tricks and skills with you. You can think of me as a bit of a social introvert. Being with people one-on-one is something I love best. I feel most comfortable in very small groups of people and I do prefer people to other animals. New dog friends and strangers can sometimes overwhelm me. The volunteers and staff at Heartland rave about how fast I catch onto things, my snuggling abilities, and gentleness while on walks. I keep my kennel clean since I always do my business outside during my walks. Honestly, the folks are so good to me at Heartland, and I love my routine. Even though I am very happy here, have made a ton of human friends, and have settled into a great routine, I sometimes overhear the wonderful peeps at the shelter talk about how much they want me to find my forever person that I can call my own. I know that's what they want for me, even though they are really going to miss me a lot. I also know they will be dedicated to working with me and you so that we can get to know each other and have the best relationship ever. More than anything, I want to live out my best life with my special person who will make a forever commitment to me. I prefer a quiet, adult home, with one, possibly two people to love, and would like to be your one and only pet. In return, I will love you with my entire being and will make you very proud of me. Plus, there are some added bonuses, my adoption fee has been sponsored by a generous donor and I have a $250 training scholarship! My friends at Heartland are dedicated to helping us get to know each other and will support us along the way. What more can we ask for? Please schedule to meet me real soon, I have so much love to give. Billie's adoption fee is sponsored! This animal is spayed, up to date on core vaccines, and Heartworm negative

Story
Nicks is living in a foster home. Please submit an application from our website and/or email dogs@heartlandanimalshelter.org to learn if you are a match! Nicks is a gorgeous 3 year old black shepherd originally from Florida. Nicks found an amazing adopter who loved her so much, but sadly he passed away unexpectedly and she is now back in our care. We would love to see this special girl find a new perfect person for her super soon! Like many shepherds, Nicks can be weary of new people and takes a little time to let them in. However, once you are in her circle you are in it for life and she will be ready to shower you with love! For example, our staff went to visit her, we hadn't seen her in almost two years, and she greeted us with hugs and kisses. Nicks is currently in foster care with one of her amazing volunteer friends and here are the cliff notes about her! -housebroken -crate-trained for even a full workday -loves to go on walks -loves to cuddle but isn't overly clingy -loves to do enrichment and work on new commands -she was a tester dog for us at the shelter, and loves to meet new dog friends, but in the home, she prefers to be an only child. She does amazing in doggy daycare! Nicks' adoption fee is sponsored by a generous donor! This animal is spayed, up to date on core vaccines, and Heartworm negative.

For those who adore German Shepherds and seek a mature, calm-natured, and loyal companion, Princess is your girl. Having lived in a home before, Princess comes with training and knows some basic commands. She arrived at our shelter through no fault of her own.

Princess is the perfect dog for leisurely walks, laying at your feet while you read your favorite book, and being your loyal companion until the end. Please consider giving Princess a chance. We promise you will not be disappointed by the love and companionship she brings into your life. You can apply for this pup here: https://www.bordertailsrescue.org/adopt

Story
Meet Henrietta, a charming German Shepherd who is eagerly awaiting her forever home. Henrietta found her way to us from a partner rescue, and we're determined to help her find the loving family she deserves. Though initially shy in the shelter environment, Henrietta's gentle nature shines through. She's a sweetheart who gets along well with other dogs, making her an ideal companion for households with furry friends already in the mix. Despite her initial reservations, Henrietta is longing for someone to give her a chance to thrive. With a calm disposition, Henrietta is the perfect balance of relaxed and playful. She enjoys engaging in activities like playtime and leisurely walks, but she's equally content snuggled up on the couch, soaking in the warmth of companionship. If you're a German Shepherd enthusiast seeking a loyal and affectionate companion, Henrietta might just be the perfect match for you. Don't let her shy demeanor deter you-this sweet girl is ready to blossom in a loving home. Take the first step towards welcoming Henrietta into your life by submitting an adoption application today! Here is what her foster has to say! " Calling all German Shepard lovers. If you are looking for the perfect German Shepard look no further. Henrietta, which we call Hazel, is a sweet very shy calm dog. And yes, I said a calm German Shepard. My husband and I were originally drawn to her because she reminded me so much of my German Shepard Bridgette, that I foster failed from Border Tails. We instantly knew we wanted to help her and foster her. When we first got her she was very shy and skittish. It actually took 3 weeks of her being here before she would let us pet her. We have fostered her for about two months now and she has made such progress. Her personality has completely come out. She loves to play with my other dogs. She loves to chew on our wooden chew toys. She loves to shred the soft plush toys. She is a good eater and loves all her fruits and veggies we give her. She is fully potty trained and we are currently working on sit with her. She is not crate trained because she doesn't like being in the crate. She loves being in the center of commotion and is absolutely wonderful with my 4 and 5 year old children. She only barks if the dog next door is outside or there are dogs barking on the tv otherwise she is very calm. She is very bonded to her biological sister, who we are fostering as well.
