Story
Friendly Faces Are His Favorite Iso is a friendly, active dog who looks like a German Shepherd and is new to our care. What stands out most about him is how much he enjoys people. The prior shelter shared that he was friendly and easy with humans, including being good with the person who found him loose. Iso is treat-motivated and happily takes treats, often sitting politely for them without being asked. He enjoys interaction and engagement, especially when snacks and attention are involved, which makes spending time with him both fun and rewarding. With his shepherd looks and people-loving personality, Iso is ready to find a foster or forever home where he can continue building confidence, learning, and sharing his friendly nature with the humans around him.

Story
This gorgeous girl is not quite available for adoption, but will be soon after she is done raising a family of her very own! She is currently nursing her puppies and we urgently need a maternity foster to help get her out of the stressful shelter so she can focus on giving her puppies everything they need to grow. Moms and puppies do not need a ton of space and prefer a quiet room or space to themselves as opposed to being a part of the household action; so if you've got a spare bedroom, office, bathroom or closet space where you can keep them separate from resident pets then you are perfect for maternity fostering! APA will gladly provide all supplies and give you a run down of what to expect throughout the process. We ask that maternity fosters keep mom and puppies until the puppies have weaned and started eating gruel, which is usually around 3-4 weeks of age. At that point we are able to move the puppies to new foster homes so they can start their journey towards adoption and mom as well if that is preferred. Or if you want to see the family through to adoption yourself we will gladly help you through that stage as well! Please reach out to give a family the quiet, comfy place they need during this vulnerable stage. You will get to enjoy an immense amount of puppy cuddles and joy watching them grow up. And as the foster you will get first priority for adopting mom or a puppy of your choice. Can you help a mom and her puppies by signing up to be a maternity foster today??

Story
Meet Sydney, a serene and affectionate Belgian Malinois Shepherd mix with a heart as gentle as her gaze. Sydney is the definition of calm—nothing seems to faze her. She’s incredibly dog and cat friendly, and her low to medium energy level makes her a wonderful match for a peaceful home. Sydney is being fostered in a loving home in San Antonio, TX, where she gets along beautifully with her German Shepherd foster sister. Sydney walks beautifully on a leash and makes an excellent walking buddy for those who enjoy quiet neighborhood strolls. However, her true happy place is outside—she absolutely thrives in a yard where she can explore, relax, and enjoy nature. A home with outdoor space is a must for this sweet girl. Potty trained and polite, Sydney is well-mannered around the house. She's a little shy when meeting new people or visiting unfamiliar places, so she’ll need a patient and loving family willing to give her time to settle in. Once she trusts you, she’ll show you her soft, affectionate side and soak up every bit of attention you're willing to give. Sydney is also a cozy cuddle buddy—she loves curling up next to you on the couch for some quiet bonding time. While she’s not a fan of car rides, Sydney is happy living the homebody life. She’s currently looking for a foster or adopter in Central Texas who can offer her the calm, consistent environment she deserves. If you're looking for a gentle, loyal companion, Sydney is ready to make your heart her home. To see more pictures and videos of Sydney copy and paste this link, you can apply directly for Sydney by clicking the Apply for Adoption button on the linked page. https://www.shelterluv.com/embed/animal/FODS-A-550 All our dogs come with 30 days of free post-adoption support through Petcademy.org. This benefit includes free access to Petcademy's team of trainers/behaviorists, as well as access to online materials that will help you settle your new family member into your home.

Meet Luci ❤️Luci is a 3-year-old German Shepherd/Belgian Malinois mix who is smart, well-trained, and incredibly loyal. She knows her commands, walks beautifully on a leash, and loves being close to her people. She also has a soft side—she adores stuffed animals and has a favorite blankie. Luci does great with other dogs and enjoys companionship.We love her deeply, so this decision hasn’t been easy. We want to be honest: Luci has some anxiety and recently bit our 5-year-old. While this was an isolated incident, it showed she isn’t comfortable around young children or unpredictable movement.Luci needs an adult-only home or one with older, calm teens, and a patient, structured environment.She is not a bad dog—just a sensitive one who needs the right fit. In the right home, she will be a deeply devoted companion.Please reach out if you feel you could be the right home for Luci.

Story
Chase is a wonderful dog....he has all the physical characteristics of a Belgian Malinois...lanky and graceful...but not the high prey drive bred into this breed. Have you ever wanted to share your home with one of these magnificent dogs, but not the intense qualities that are chosen for drug detection work by the FBI. Chase is happy playing ball or going on a nice walk and then curling up to watch the FBI on tv with you, not engaging in going after criminals in real life.  He is gorgeous and fun, a super lovable lean and attractive doggy. Chase has glowing reports from his foster home. He loves car rides, is fully crate trained, quiet for a GSD breed! Super people and dog friendly. Chase came from Palm Valley where he was shutting down after being relinquished to the high kill shelter by his family. Like so many beautiful dogs, Chase did nothing wrong to be let down by his humans.  We have an excellent foster program which allows us to help another dog from another high kill area. Please consider sharing your home with our boy, Chase. May 23, 2024, 3:59 pm
