Story
UpDate: this wonderful dog has been waiting 2 years for a family and everyone that meets him doesn't know why?!?! He spent 2months at a training program just for fun to get him out of the shelter and he was amazing as we knew he would be. He had a large play group of dogs all sizes. They said he is very well trained inside and crate trained. He was DNA tested 60% GSD and pitty mix. His personality is very Shepherd like..he just has an beautiful brindle pitty coat. He has been very careful of children...not always adults bit he was great while staying with my sister and small niece. Please share this post and help this beautiful boy find a family!!! This is the coolest dog...just the freaking coolest!! And sooooo smart, his smarts have gotten him in trouble from day 1. He was turned into a shelter with his sister as puppies and he was transfered to another shelter. He waited there over a year and was recently moved to out shelter. ***We would LOVE to see him get a job in detection work!!** he loves to work!! He way too smart to be kennels and waiting has been very hard on him. He's very sweet with people just doesn't quite know his size which is why we said not good with children he's not aggressive just more of a bulldozer. Same with other dogs he's ALOT and intense from all the pent up energy. We are looking for the perfect fit for this guy is you feel you have a life waiting for him please contact us to get the application process going it's painless I promise and he is soooo worth it

Story
Jaxs is a good dog he’s currently 9 will be 10 dec.17 I don’t know he’s whole story as he was rehomed to me when he was 7 years old unfortunately I have fallen under some hard times and I am unable to fully take care of him and give him everyhting he needs with his old age most the time he sleeps or chews on toys it breaks my heart to have to do this but I’d rather him live out the rest of his life with people who can give him what he needs then this I’m on the verge of losing my home and I don’t want to put him through this if you have another dog I’d prefer we let them met before hand but I’d prefer he’s your only dog as he needs it he’s good with people other animals as he’s only ever been around dogs and cats he’s a great boy and needs somsone to continue to give him a good life

Story
In December'23 I took Tango in from a co-worker that had found him in Georgia and brought him back to Iowa. He was roughly 6mths old, his birthdate we believe is around 5/18/23 so he's alittle over 2yrs old now. We lived on an acreage, and he grew up loving the outdoor life, running and playing. He Loves the snow! Due to a life situation, I moved into town in 2025 and that has changed his life. He has a fenced in yard but it's not big enough to run off his energy and I can tell he's getting anxious. Tango has only been around one other dog while I was having my fence built and the two were always separated. So I have no idea how he will interact with other dogs. He has a very good demeanor, loves to have attention, loves playing and likes walking. Everyone is amazed at how smart he is. He is absolutely beautiful. He is truly a wonderful and it breaks my heart to let him go. The only reason I'm wanting to find a home him is because I am not doing justice for his breed.
