Louie is a handsome, fun-loving 1.5 year-old 60lb German Shepherd/Terrier mix with a big heart and a very good-boy personality. His mom was a German Shepherd, and while his dad is unknown, Louie seems to have inherited a wonderful mix of smarts, charm, and playful energy. Louie is potty trained, crate trained, and already has a great foundation for family life. He’s a cool, happy dog who enjoys being part of the action and loves having people to connect with. He has that loyal German Shepherd sweetness mixed with a fun terrier spark, making him both affectionate and entertaining. Louie is currently with New Start Dog Rescue and is looking for a home that will appreciate his good nature, keep giving him structure, and love him for the awesome dog he is. He’s ready for his next chapter with a family who will see what a special boy he truly is. Louie is available to adopt in the Chicagoland area and is being fostered in a home. Appointments to visit him will be set up for approved adopters only. Adoption fee is $350.00 which includes all age appropriate vaccines, and he is already neutered and microchipped.

Story

Lola is a beautiful 2-year-old German Shepherd mix with a heart as big as her playful spirit. This sweet girl has quite the story—she spent over a month as a stray in her neighborhood, where she quickly won over everyone, especially the local kids. She would happily walk them to and from the bus stop, soaking up all the love, playtime, and snacks they had to offer. It’s clear from the start: Lola adores people, especially children. Lola is the perfect mix of fun and well-mannered. She loves toys (especially balls!) and will happily play fetch and retrieve to her heart’s content. She also enjoys playing with other dogs and would do great in a home with a canine companion. She’s both house-trained and kennel-trained, and can relax comfortably in a crate for extended periods without issue. Lola travels well in the car (especially in her crate) and is always up for an adventure—she truly loves going for rides. Lola is smart and eager to please, showing all the classic German Shepherd traits. She knows her name, responds well to training, and even does well off-leash in appropriate settings like trails. She’s not destructive and doesn’t chew on household items—she’d much rather enjoy a Milk-Bone or a good game of fetch. While Lola is generally well-behaved in the home, she can be a bit vocal when excited, especially when greeting people or when someone comes to the door. This is typical of her breed and manageable with continued guidance and training. Once she settles, she’s affectionate, attentive, and loves being close to her people. She has shown that she can coexist with cats and is overall a very adaptable, social dog. Lola has even waded into a pond before—so she might enjoy some water fun—but baths are definitely not her favorite activity! Lola is spayed, up to date on vaccines, and on prevention, ready to find her forever home. Ideal Home: Lola would thrive in an active home where she can get plenty of playtime, exercise, and attention. A family with kids, another playful dog, or someone who enjoys outdoor adventures would be a great match for her. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving, and playful companion who will stick by your side and keep you smiling, Lola just might be your girl. If this sounds like the pup for you, please complete an application at https://www.saveastray.org/forms/form?formid=3635 Once the application is approved, a FaceTime will be set up for a virtual meet and greet. Since we are located in Mobile, AL, this will give you the opportunity to see the pet interact with other dogs, people, and see a bit of their personality. Transports leave every week alternating between the NE and the Great Lakes. We use the most animal-friendly transport on the road. Rescue Riders Pet Transport. Thank you for your interest in a Save a Stray pet.

Story

Meet Tye – The Comeback King with a Goofy Soul and a Grin You’ll Never ForgetAvailable for Adoption or Foster I'm currently in California. My bags are packed, I’m ready to travel to my new home. Where are you? Are you my new family? I’ll travel to you! Looking for a big-hearted, goofy boy who will make you laugh every single day? That’s me! I’m Tye, and I’ve come a long way to get here. I’m a 6-year-old German Shepherd with a million-dollar smile and a comeback story to match. When I first came into the shelter, I was in rough shape — my eyes were sealed shut from infection, and my ears had been neglected for so long that they needed surgery. But I never gave up. I spent five months in the hospital getting the care I needed, and now? I’m healthy, healed, and full of joy. I’m a big guy with a big appetite and an even bigger heart. I still need a little daily help, mostly with my eyes. They need to be cleaned every day, but I’m very sweet about it. My ears are closed after surgery, so my hearing isn’t perfect - but I’m not deaf. I can still hear things, especially when someone’s saying “dinner” or “walk!” What you’ll notice most about me, though, is how happy I am. I play by tossing my toys in the air, I give my paw when I want love, and I flash my trademark grin just to see you smile back. I’ve got medium energy — I love walks and playtime, but I also know how to chill. I’m good with other dogs, good with tweens and up, and great with people. Brushing, petting, bonding — I live for it. If you’re looking for a dog who makes you laugh, gives you love, and reminds you that joy always finds a way… that’s me. I’ve already survived the hard part. Now I just need someone to help me thrive. I’m looking for my family, and I’m happy to do foster-to-adopt — my rescue will even cover the costs while I’m in foster care. So what do you say? Ready to give a good boy his best chapter yet? Let’s write our story together.— Tye ##2406949##

Story

I’m Rufus. I’ve Been Let Down Twice. I’m Still Showing Up.I'm currently in California, but my bags are packed, I’m ready to travel to my new home. Where are you? Are you my new family? I’ll travel to you! I’m 2 years old. A big German Shepherd, about 94 pounds of fur, strength, and a heart that keeps choosing people even when it hasn’t worked out before. I was adopted. Then I ended up back as a stray.It happened again. The second time, I came in wearing a shock collar that was too tight. It had to be cut off. I had open wounds around my neck. Even then, I stayed kind. The shelter staff loved me. They saw who I was under everything. They just didn’t have the resources to help me the way I needed. Then things almost went in the wrong direction again. Plans that weren’t right for me. That’s when people stepped in and said no, not this dog, not again. Now I’m safe. I’m getting the care I need. I’m healing. Here’s what you should know about me. I love people. I’m friendly. I’m the kind of dog who wants to be near you and be part of your life. I’ve done well with other dogs. I’ve lived in a home before. I know what it means to be with someone. And I’m loyal. Deeply. I’m a big dog, so I’ll need someone comfortable with my size. But I’m not difficult. I just need someone steady. Someone who means it. Because I do. I’m not looking to bounce around again. I’m looking for the place where I finally stay. If you’ve been waiting for a dog who will give you everything he has, I’m already that dog. ##2715474##
