Story
Say hello to Scooby. Scooby is truly the best of boys—smart, incredibly loyal, and happiest when he’s making his people smile (and getting a few cuddles along the way). His biggest goal in life is simply to be close to his family and be a good companion. We are rehoming Scooby because he cannot come with us to where we are moving. If we could keep him, we absolutely would, which should tell you everything you need to know about how special he is. Scooby is 5 years old, and we have had him for a little over two and a half years. During that time he has lived comfortably with cats and several other dogs—at one point his best friend was a very small dog. He has also lived in a family home with children and does great with kids of all ages. He loves to play, go on walks, and spend time with his people. Scooby is also comfortable being home on his own when needed. While he no longer uses one, he was crate trained in the past and did well with it.

Story
Meet Echo ❤️ Some dogs find their way to the sanctuary through owner surrenders. Some arrive through shelters. Echo’s story is a little different. One day, Lee Asher and Sara were driving home when they spotted a dog standing in the middle of the road. That dog was Echo. She had been abandoned near the sanctuary and left to fend for herself. Thankfully, her story didn’t end there. Echo is a stunning 1-year-old purebred German Shepherd weighing approximately 65 pounds. Since arriving at the sanctuary, she has blossomed into a confident, playful, and incredibly intelligent young dog who is ready to find a family of her own. Like many young German Shepherds, Echo is full of energy and enthusiasm. She loves to run, play, learn, and be involved in whatever her people are doing. She is eager to please and clearly has had some training in the past. Echo has excellent recall, knows several commands, and is always excited to learn something new. She can be a rough-and-rowdy player and does best with medium to large dogs who can match her energy and play style. Because of her prey drive and enthusiasm, she is not a fit for homes with small dogs or cats. One of Echo’s best qualities is her willingness to learn. She responds well to correction from both people and other dogs and shows all the signs of a dog who wants guidance and structure. With continued training, consistency, and patience, Echo has the potential to become an absolutely incredible companion. Echo is looking for an active home that understands the needs of a young German Shepherd. She needs physical exercise, mental stimulation, and a family committed to helping her continue growing into the amazing dog she is becoming. Most of all, she needs people who won’t give up on her simply because she’s young, energetic, and still learning. Echo would do best with kids over the age of 11 due to her play style and energy. For the German Shepherd lovers out there, Echo is truly something special. She is smart, loyal, affectionate, and full of potential. All she needs now is someone willing to invest the time and love she deserves. Echo's adoption fee is $295 and she is spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. If you’re ready for a devoted best friend and adventure partner, apply to meet Echo today.
