Story
Meliora is a very playful girl, loves tug a war and loves playing with an empty water bottle. She is friendly but is a little rough to play with and can be a bit jumpy, but overall she just wants to be loved by someone she trust. She loves the outdoors and going on walks or to the dog park. She needs a loving new home, we weren’t able to care for her as well as we wanted to with a newborn in our life’s and two working parents. Hope she gets to have a nice yard to run in and to live more happily!

Story
Dutchess is a stunning 2-year-old German Shepherd/Malinois mix with a gentle soul and a playful heart. She can be a little shy when you first meet her, but give her a little time (and maybe a treat or two), and she'll soon be your loyal, tail-wagging shadow! Once Dutchess warms up, she absolutely adores people and other dogs &#194&#151 especially if they're up for some fun in the water. Splashing in a pool, chasing the hose, or just wading in a creek &#194&#151 water play is Dutchess's absolute favorite pastime! Dutchess would thrive in a home with patient, kind humans who can help build her confidence and give her the love (and water games!) she craves. She's gentle, affectionate, and ready to bond deeply with her forever family. If you're looking for a sweet, playful companion who loves water adventures and quiet cuddles after, Dutchess is your perfect match. If you are interested in Dutchess, please fill out an application at www.tahoewarf.org and text 775-338-6631 or 775-846-3773.November 27, 2025, 2:09 pm

Story
Here is Declan! He has been in our care for over three years, being pulled from a kill shelter on his last day by a WARF volunteer. On arrival at our sanctuary, we discovered that Declan's left eye was completely ruptured and had to be removed due to either bullet or blunt force trauma. We also discovered that he was likely a former guard dog that had been badly trained, resulting in misplaced aggression towards people and animals. Declan started out with only one friend in the world and was aggressive towards everyone, but he is now confident enough to be able to be introduced to new people by his trusted handlers in a slow, controlled environment. In the three years that Declan has been with WARF, he has made slow but steady progress, and we now feel that he is ready to find his special person. He would be an ideal dog for a single woman, as his protective nature really comes through once he has bonded with someone. He would prefer an indoor-outdoor environment, as he likes to roam the perimeter, making sure everything is safe, but needs to be securely contained as he is a big, strong boy and can't be in an environment where he could encounter a person or animal he does not know. Declan has learned to walk nicely alongside other dogs but does not want to share his life, or his people, with other animals. If you are interested in learning more about this incredibly resilient dog, please call/text 775-338-6631. An adoption process for Declan would require a calm but confident person who is willing to commit to multiple get-acquainted visits and a home check, as we want to be sure that he never has to go through abandonment and trauma again.February 2, 2025, 3:22 pm
