Story
Unfortunately, due to an upcoming move, I need to find a new home for my dog. His name is Taz, and he’s 4½ years old. He’s a very sweet boy and doesn’t need much—just love, care, and affection. I’m looking for a responsible owner who will take good care of him and give him the attention he deserves. I can also provide some of his belongings to help with the transition, including bowls, collars, and other essentials. If you’re interested or would like more information, please reach out.

Story
Kodiak is a beautiful, sweet, and lovable dog who has completely stolen the hearts of myself and my family over the past four years. This decision is incredibly difficult, but I’ve come to realize that Kodiak needs a different environment in order to thrive. While she is wonderful in so many ways, Kodiak has had issues getting along with our other female dog, Presley (a dachshund). The first incident happened after about a year, and while we thought it was an isolated situation, she unfortunately attacked Presley again in October 2024, which required medical care. During that same week, there was a second incident. Since then, we’ve kept the dogs separated, but I feel this has only increased her frustration toward Presley, even through the crate. We also have a small male dog, Bandit, and we believe the conflict between Kodiak and Presley is related to them both trying to establish dominance. We worked with a trainer and received tools to help Kodiak, but due to a very difficult 2025

Story
Nala is about 3 1/2, the perfect German Shepherd! I have 2 other German Shepherds, one male and one older female. She gets along with all dogs, male and female, except my older female! My older female, is very overprotective and Nala also wants me. I have to keep them totally separate, and unfortunatly, it is so stressful!! I had a heart attack and recently, had a mini stroke. It is too difficult to take this journey on any longer. I will keep my other two, as they are totally trained and have no issues together. I need help immediately!!! Honestly, this is killing me, as I would keep Nala if they got along!! She is fun, gentle, smart. Nala wants to please her person! Wants love and to hang with her person. It is very sad, as I cannot give her the attention she deserves. I would like to have her in a home with someone who knows and understands German Shepherds. She loves to go outside, run and play ball. Loves to walk and take car rides!! There is no red flags at all!!

Story
Introducing Julia! Julia is a gorgeous 2-year-old shepherd mix with a sleek coat, graceful build, and soulful eyes that draw you right in. She carries herself with grace, almost like a little deer, and her tall, expressive ears show exactly what’s on her mind. Julia is gentle, sweet, and very loyal—just like a true shepherd, she chooses her person and sticks by their side through thick and thin. She’s pretty low energy and would be perfectly content with the occasional stroll, followed by plenty of cuddle time. Her affectionate, easygoing nature makes her a joy to be around. She does well with kids, cats, and other dogs, and she’s food-motivated, crate trained, and housebroken. Julia is spayed, fully vaccinated, and ready to devote all her love and loyalty to her forever family
