Story

Sahara is our two year old, previously feral German Shepherd mama who came to us a year ago from Palmdale desert in California. A friend reached out to us saying she was found in the desert and being cared for by a kind samaritan but needed a rescue to step in and help, so we said yes! She gave birth to 10 adorable puppies out there. Sahara has come out of her shell tons in the past year. She is house trained, crate trained, trained to go in and out of the car, can go on off leash hikes, is wonderful on leash AND is great with dogs/kids/humans. She is the total package. She can still be timid with initial greetings and take a little bit to warm up but once she does, she is the biggest love bug you will ever meet and super loyal to her family. Sahara is one of the sweetest and most sensitive dogs who will thrive with a family who is caring, loving, patient and kind.

Story

Hi! I’m Puumba! Like my namesake, I am looking for a worry-free life. My human’s living situation has changed unexpectedly in the last year, and our current situation isn’t working so well for me as it is such a big change from what I am used to. I would do best in a place with a yard where I can get all of my energy out, or with someone who can take me to the dog park often. I am working on leash training, and sometimes get a little over excited when I meet new people and really want to jump up and greet them properly! I also get a little frustrated to be on a leash when I want to say hi to all my friends. I’m working on it though, and am the bestest boi at a lot of basic commands. I would be a great addition to your home, just not with small children because I have never been around them and they are VERY unpredictable which is a little scary for me. I have so many cuddles to give, and so much love to share.

Vet Care Although Tiffany is healthy, vaccinated, and spayed, it’s important to schedule a visit with your own vet as soon as possible after adoption to establish care and ensure a smooth transition. The 3-3-3 Rule (Important!) First 3 days: Tiffany may feel overwhelmed as everything is new — patience and reassurance are key. First 3 weeks: She’ll begin learning your routine, your home, and what it means to belong. First 3 months: Trust deepens, confidence grows, and her true personality fully shines. This adjustment period is normal and requires understanding, consistency, and love. Why Tiffany Will Be an Amazing Addition Tiffany isn’t just a dog — she’s a companion in the making.
