Shy boy Shasta is ready to find his person even if it takes some time to warm up for him. He loves all dogs and puppies but cousious to approach straingers because he spent his previous months as a stray and got into a kill shelter just to be moved to a kill list as a shy dog. He feels happy next to a playful female dogs so having a sibling would make a perfect family.

Story
Hi, I’m Reeba! Think of me as a present that comes with a little extra packaging. I’m almost 2 years old and 68 lbs., and am a German Shepherd Mix...and when we first meet, I’m probably going to be thinking, “Hmm... I’m going to need a minute.” I’m a very shy girl at first, and I need time to decide that you’re someone I can trust. But once I unwrap myself from that nervous little shell, you’ll find a really sweet girl who loves being with her people. I just need someone who understands that friendship is a process, not a speed run. I’m happiest when life is calm and predictable. I enjoy peaceful walks where I can take in the world at my own pace, and I love having a cozy home where I can relax with my favorite people. I also do very well with other dogs! I especially appreciate calm, respectful dogs who don’t feel the need to turn every interaction into WrestleMania. A mellow canine companion would be right up my alley. And good news for the cat lovers: I have a positive history with cats! So I already know that feline roommates can be pretty cool. I’d do best with kids 15 and older who understand that shy dogs need time, patience, and space while they’re getting comfortable. Once I trust you, you’ll see a completely different side of me, and I promise the wait is worth it. I’m not going to be the girl who runs into your arms on day one. I’m the girl who slowly walks into your heart and eventually refuses to leave! My adoption fee is $295 and I'm spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. Apply to meet me today!

Story
Meet Purity! 🐾 Purity is a beautiful 1-year-old German Shepherd mix who is fully grown at about 50 pounds and has a BIG personality—and plenty of energy—to match! Purity was saved from euthanasia at the Hesperia Animal Shelter in California, and we are so grateful this fun-loving girl got the second chance she deserved. Now she’s ready to trade shelter life for a forever home filled with adventures, activity, learning, and lots of love. Purity is outgoing, boisterous, playful, confident, and incredibly social. She’s friendly with other dogs and would do well with kids ages 6 and older who can appreciate her enthusiastic approach to life. She loves being involved in whatever is happening and brings plenty of energy and entertainment wherever she goes. And when we say Purity is active, we mean VERY active! This girl is looking for a family that genuinely wants an energetic dog and will enjoy keeping her physically and mentally engaged. Long walks, hikes, adventures, training sessions, games, and enrichment activities are much more her speed than a quiet, sedentary lifestyle. Purity is also extremely intelligent, and she needs a home that will embrace that part of who she is. She’ll do best with a family prepared to provide structure, clear expectations, consistency, and ongoing training. She’s the kind of dog who wants to use her brain, learn new things, and have a job to do—even if that job is simply mastering new skills and joining her family on their adventures. Her intelligence also comes with a creative streak! Purity has been known to jump a fence and occasionally figure out how to open locks, so secure fencing and a family willing to stay one step ahead of this clever girl will be important. She’ll likely thrive with puzzles, training exercises, enrichment activities, and anything else that challenges that busy brain. Purity hasn’t been tested with cats yet, but if your home includes feline siblings, we can cat test her to help determine whether she may be a good fit. Purity isn’t looking for just a place to live—she’s looking for people who will invest in her. With the right combination of activity, structure, training, and love, this smart and spirited young dog has incredible potential to become an amazing companion. Her adoption fee is $295 and includes her spay, vaccinations, and microchip. If you’re looking for a VERY active, intelligent dog and are excited about continuing her training, keeping her busy, and giving her the structure she needs to thrive, Purity may be your girl! Apply to meet her today! ❤️
