Meet Sasha! 🌟 At just 3 years old, Sasha has already overcome so much. She was picked up by Franklin County in April after being hit by a car on I-670, suffering pelvic and hip fractures. But this brave girl didn’t let that stop her! 💪🐾 She’s fully healed and runs, plays, and enjoys life to the fullest. Sasha’s a spayed German Shepherd with a big heart and a big personality. She’s smart, protective, sometimes silly — and absolutely devoted once she bonds with you. She loves a good game of tug, chasing Jolly balls, and keeping watch over her yard like a true Shepherd queen. 👑 Her foster mom says Sasha has come a long way with patience, structure, and training. She’s working with trainer and learning that the world isn’t such a scary place. She needs someone experienced who understands the strong, loyal spirit of a GSD. ✅ Crate trained ✅ Great in the yard with a secure fence ✅ Sweet, affectionate, and hilarious once she trusts you 🚫 Best in a home without small kids or small animals Sasha’s perfect match? Someone who loves the Shepherd energy — confident, consistent, and committed to her continued growth. 🐕‍🦺💛 Trainer Brian has even offered to help with her transition and continued training for her adopter! If you’re ready to open your heart and home to a loyal companion who’ll give you her all, Sasha is waiting. 🏡💖

Story
Meet Costata! This adorable little lady is ready to find her fresh start with a furever family. Costata is spunky, playful, and simply adorable! She appears to be potty trained and knows some basic skills including "sit", "shake", and "drop it". She is very food motivated, and will do anything for a tennis ball! Costata is still a little nervous with strangers, especially men, so she is looking for a family that will give her time to warm up. She would do best in a home without men, but this is not a requirement. Once she is comfortable with you Costata is simply perfect, and will follow you everywhere! She has done well with other dogs and cats. If you have other animals in your home, we recommend bringing them in to do a meet and greet before taking Costata home. If you are interested in meeting Costata, please submit an adoption form on our website: fairfieldcountydogs.com and we will contact you to arrange a time to visit.

German Shepherd Dog Mountain Cur

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Cod! Cod was surrendered by his owner because he was chasing cats in the home. He is a sweet, shy boy who would benefit from positive reinforcement based training to build his confidence. Cod previously lived with children and loves people, he is a cuddle-bug and loves to be with his humans. He is potty trained and knows some other basic skills like "sit" and "shake". He is nervous with new dogs, so he would do best with a respectful companion that will give him time to open up at home. He will chase cats, so he would do best in a home without them or will need some training and guidance on respecting cats in the home. If you have other animals in your home, we recommend bringing them in to do a meet and greet before taking Cod home. If you are interested in meeting Cod, please submit an adoption form on our website: fairfieldcountydogs.com and we will contact you to arrange a time to visit.
