Best girl seeking furever human to be my ride or die. I am an older gal who would love nothing more than a pool, yard and ball to pass the days away. The way to my heart is through tummy rubs. Can we binge some nature shows while I snooze by your side on these warm summer nights? I'm in...are you?

Story
Hello. You must be the friend I am looking for. My name is Hansel and I need a friend who will help me come out of my shell. I am just a pup who hasn't had much time in the world and things are a bit scary for me. However, I am convinced that with someone like you by my side I can learn to conquer big things like shadows and maybe even huge plastic skeletons...but the jury may be out on that for a while.

Story
Meet Charlie, the 8-year-old German Shepherd with a heart as big as his soulful eyes. This senior gentleman will enjoy taking life at a leisurely pace, making him the perfect companion for relaxed walks and cozy evenings. He finds himself at the shelter through no fault of his own, coming in as a stray. There will be things you will have to figure out together, like his housetraining, favorite type of play, and where he prefers to sleep. Think of the fun you will have figuring life out together. As you can see in his videos he has shown us so far that he is a steller fetcher and a fan of water. A tennis ball and chucker will surely be the way to his heart. Although his journey has hit a bump in the road, he's "adoptomistic" about finding a family who will cherish him as much as he'll cherish them!

Story
"Ace is a great dog. He loves meeting new people, but is a little shy at first. Once he warms up to you, he's definitely a lap dog and loves being around people." Golly, what great things my previous person said about me. They are all totally true. The only thing they left out is that I am SUPER smart. I can solve puzzles quick...door handles, gate latches, window latches...they are not even a challenge for my super intellect. But there is a solution...give me a new challenge. I would do great at agility training. We could even go to classes together...and you could learn something new too!

Declan

German Shepherd Dog

Male, Adult
Stagecoach, NV
Size
(when grown) X-Large 101 lbs (46 kg) or more
Details
Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
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.September 15, 2024, 4:08 pm
