Story
German Shepherd Mix puppies born May 5, 2023 available for adoption. (slight possibility they are purebred, we just don't know) There were 4 females and 3 males born. Currently there is 1 black female available. The original owner to the "Mom" contacted us to help place this pretty sable female German Shepherd (pictured). What we didn't know was this pretty little girl was pregnant. Because the original owner has proven she doesn't know how to tell the truth, we have no idea what dog impregnated her. We suspect she doesn't want to admit it was one of her own black German Shepherds but again we only suspect. We are taking applications now for the puppies. They will be available the first week of July. They will have their first puppy shots before their adoption, the adopter will be responsible for all required booster shots after that. There will be an adoption contract specifying the pup is to be spayed or neutered. Remember, we are a rescue there can be no breeding. Note: No Meetings or Adoptions will happen without a completed Adoption Application at WWW.DOGSHOPE.COM

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Harmony is a two-year-old Belgian Malinois/GSD/mix. She was saved from a horrible situation and it is now back to her normal weight and trying to heal emotionally. Harmony is potty trained and will let you know when she needs to go outside. She loves her toys and she loves to play ball. She would do best in an active household without young children and without cats. She would do best with another playful or easy going dog.   Harmony should be with someone who is mostly home at first. She does well in her crate while someone is in the house and she does OK in the house when she is alone but in the crate and alone causes her anxiety. She trust most females but needs to warm up to some men. She should have slow introductions to all new people while she learns new socialization skills.  Harmony needs someone who is patient while she is healing from her abuse. Once she knows that she is safe with you, she gives her whole heart and wants nothing more than to snuggle up beside you, go for a run, play and play and play with her toys, and even crawl under your covers to sleep.  She is super smart and knows basic commands and is very food motivated so continued positive only training would be wonderful for everyone. If you think that you can love Harmony forever, she will gladly return your affection.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.June 9, 2023, 8:23 pm

Story
Hello, my name is Brian Shepherd,I have a nearly 2 year old black German Shepherd that would need a new home due to living conditions changing preventing me from keeping a dog. I was reffered to you guys from the Franklin Services Shelter and would like to talk over possibilities and options for Bear. The only real issue I see that Bear might have in being rescued is that he is very animal driven. He seems to slightly dog aggressive but he is wonderful around people. You can contact my phone at (xxx) xxx-xxxx , however an email is the preference.I bought him from a user needing to rehome him via facebook. They had no shot records , nor was he neatured. So I have no official paperwork on him so he could be classified as a strayHe is not good around other dogs, he seems to get dominant around other dogs. As far s cats his scutes stick up when he see's stray cats walk around. I don't know if it is an aggression towards cats, however I've never gotten him close enough.
