Story
Hi my name is Baki, I am a 2 yr old German Shepherd. I am very smart, energetic, and have a big personality. Very alert and loves being active. Baki would do best with someone who knows the breed and has the time to give him exercise, structure, and attention. He’s s a great dog, but unfortunately the owners are too busy with their careers to provide him with the best opportunity possible. He is house trained, crate trained, and comfortable around puppies and cats.

Story
Meet MayaMatilda is currently in a foster home. Please call to schedule a meet‑and‑greet with her.Maya came to us through no fault of her own when her previous owner was no longer able to care for her. She previously lived with two Shepherd siblings, so she is dog‑friendly and comfortable around other pups. She also doesn't seem to mind cats at all. We were also told she lived around younger children, so we believe she does well with kids.Right now, Maya is feeling timid and unsure. She'll need time to decompress, feel safe, and slowly come out of her shell. With patience and a calm environment, we know she'll blossom into her true self-a loving, loyal, and gentle companion.Maya is looking for an adopter who understands that trust takes time and is willing to let her adjust at her own pace. She is up to date on vaccines and will be scheduled for her spay soon. At this time, she has no known medical concerns.If you're a patient, kind‑hearted person ready to help a sweet girl start fresh, Matilda may be the perfect match. Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: Tan Weight: 64.6 Age: 1yrs 0mths 2wks

Story
Aria, Bastian and Bailey are 12.5-week-old (est DOB 10/29/25) , beautiful shep mixes pups that were born in a drainage pipe in Texas. Thanks to some good Samaritans, these babies were able to safely be retrieved. Unfortunately, a wrecker yard owner nearby claimed mom and refused to let us help her too, but they did agree to let us take the puppies. The laws of Texas are unfair on animals. The mom appeared to be a sheepdog mix; dad is the milkman. We believe they will stay under 60 lbs once fully grown as their paws are not super big. We do not know if there were more puppies or what happened to them. The 3 pups that the good Samaritans were able to find, have been to the vet and are quite healthy! Aria -Female – Brindle/Black – 14 lbs as of 1/31/26 Bailey – Female – Brown/Black – 14.5 lbs as of 1/31/26 Bastian – Male – Black/Brindle – 19 lbs as of 1/31/26 These pups are fun, full of life and looking for their future adventure partners. They absolutely love their toys! They would love a whole toy basket of their own. They LOVE other dogs and are very sociable. They have the best personalities and are all around love bugs. They would make ideal dogs to go to dog parks, doggy daycare and just be around all sorts of dogs with no issues! Once they’re done playing, they love to cuddle. Working on house training and will master it with time. They are VERY smart dogs, be careful! They’ll outwit the best. These furbabies are quite active and would do best in a more active home. They would be WONDERFUL with children. SUPER Playful Gentle Very Happy Loves everyone and everything Curious Smart Affectionate Adventurous If you’re looking for a loyal, loving, friendly, gentle, super playful, adventure buddy, please consider adopting one of these babies. These 3 pups are FIXED (spayed/neutered), current on bordatella, have 3 sets of parvo/distemper vaccinations, current on the annual rabies vaccine, current on flea/tick and heart worm prevention, dewormed, microchipped, negative fecal, will have a clean bill of health from the veterinarian prior to adoption and includes transport cost from Texas to the East Coast. To apply to adopt you can go to our website at: www.pawsitive-Impact-animal-rescue.org This animal is currently located in Texas, but we do NOT adopt animals out in Texas due to the hundreds of animals being euthanized here daily. We do adopt in Central US and the East Coast. The adoption fee listed INCLUDES transport from Texas to the location where this animal is posted in. Transport goes to the following locations every 2-3 weeks: Albany, NY Wells and Brattleboro, VT Willington, CT Port Chester, NY Dayon and Akron, OH Grove City and Bloomsburg, PA Ridgefield and Mt Laurel, NJ White Marsh, MD and Falls Church, VA We have happily adopted hundreds of animals this way (long distance), and we do our best to make sure the animal you are applying for is best fit for your home.
