Story
Ellee is a 6 year old German shepherd. We took her in a few months ago after a family member passed away. Up to date on vaccinations and spayed. She knows basic commands like sit, down, shake, stay, in German and English. She needs to be in a home with someone that has experience with training German shepherds. She’s very smart and loyal. She’s a covid dog and wasn’t socialized well and hasn’t spent much time around kids. She gets anxious around commotion. She’s unsure around new people, especially if they are young. She’s great around adults. She prefers men and likes an alpha personality in an owner. We don’t know how she is around other dogs or animals. She needs to be with a single person or possibly a couple without kids.

Story
Bruce Wayne is a 3.5-year-old male German Shepherd Husky mix, whom my wife and I have raised since he was eight weeks old. He enjoys running, playing fetch, chasing after a laser pointer, and engaging in tug-of-war, making him an ideal candidate for a home with a fenced backyard. Bruce would thrive in an environment where he is the sole dog and there are no children, as an incident during his puppyhood has made him highly reactive to kids. Despite these challenges, Bruce is an exceptional dog and would flourish in a military family or one with a police background. Regrettably, due to his intolerance for children, and our busy schedule (not able to give him the attention he needs), we must rehome him as we are expanding our family and are seeking to find him a new home immediately.

Story
Major is a good dog but very energetic and will be 3 years old January 8th 2026. I'm 67 years old and he has become more than I want to handle. I have not been able to afford professional training for him which may be needed depending on who adopts him. Major is a pure bread and is akc registered. I marked unknown for good with kids but he interacts with my grandchildren but I keep him behind a gate. I don't think he would intentionally hurt them but he gets so excited I'm afraid he may knock them down somehow. He's good with the dog next door that is mild mannered but was aggressive toward a dog on the other side of my yard that showed aggression at times.

Story
Nando is a protective & incredibly loving dog, which is why it has been difficult to part with him. He is very affectionate, loves kisses & rubs. My daughter originally planned to take him, but her housing does not allow pets of his size. We would love to keep him, our work schedules and our children's activities prevent us from giving him the time & attention he deserves.He hasn't been around other dogs as much but my daughter has been working on that. He does not chew on household items so our remotes & shoes have been safe. He is clever enough to open doors.During thunderstorms or fireworks, he prefers to stay inside & has learned to use the shower to relieve himself if he is too nervous to go. Otherwise, he will bark to let you know when he needs to go out or come in. He understands basic commands & is always willing to learn. His favorite command is dance, which he will get on his hind legs and do a 2-step with you. He is getting used to car rides but tends to whine during one
