Story

Meet Montana, a 3-year-old Shepherd mix who is discovering how fun it is to spend a day out with his person. Montana recently enjoyed a full outing that included a park adventure, a trip through Bass Pro Shops, and even a Chick-fil-A stop, and he handled it all like a gentleman.Montana is house-trained and has excellent potty manners. He reliably waits until he is outside to potty, even in busy environments where other dogs have marked indoors. During car rides he settles nicely in the back seat, calmly watching the world go by, and remains relaxed throughout the trip.He can become excited and may jump up, so may do best with a family prepared to help him continue learning polite greetings. Some of his earlier life was spent with little structure, so he is still learning household manners, but he responds well to calm guidance, treats, and consistency and is already beginning to settle more quickly when redirected.Montana is gentle when taking treats, comfortable around loud city noises such as trucks and sirens, and shows polite curiosity rather than reactivity when he sees wildlife like squirrels. He is a little shy when meeting new people at first, yet warms up and happily accepts gentle pets once he feels comfortable. He rides quietly in the car, does not try to climb into the front seat, and enjoys simply observing everything around him.At the park, Montana showed particular interest in the water and may become a wonderful companion for beach days or lakeside walks as he gains confidence. While he is still figuring out toys and chews, what he truly enjoys most is being near his person and sharing new experiences together.Montana would thrive with a patient family willing to continue his training, provide structure, and help him keep building confidence. In return, he offers calm companionship, gentle manners, and a loyal heart ready to bond with his forever home.

FOSTER TO ADOPT ONLY- needs to be neuteredMeet German! German is a one-year-old German Shepherd Dog who is ready to find his forever home. As a young shepherd, he is smart, active, and full of potential. He’s very typical of the breed — intelligent, energetic, and happiest when he has structure, guidance, and a job to do. Because of this, German would do best in a home with prior breed experience that understands the needs of working dogs.German is not yet neutered, so he is currently available as a foster-to-adopt candidate. This means he can go home with an approved adopter on a foster contract and officially be adopted once his neuter is complete. It’s a wonderful opportunity to start bonding with him right away while we finalize his veterinary care.During his foster period, German will go home with food, a leash, and a collar to help set everyone up for success.If you’re experienced, active, and looking for a loyal companion with tons of potential, German would love to meet you. Come see him and learn more about whether he might be the perfect fit for your family!

Story

Well look no further — our sweet foster pup Hershey (yes, like the candy kisses!) is ready to find his fur-ever home.Hershey is doing wonderfully with potty training. As long as he’s taken out about every two hours, he keeps his kennel clean with no accidents. He’s a smart boy who thrives with routine and consistency.He’s been around children ranging from 1 to 13 years old and has done great with them — just remember, he is still a puppy, so continued guidance and supervision will be important as he grows.Hershey is also comfortable around large dogs. He’s currently living with an 8-month-old Pit mix (75–80 pounds) and a 7-month-old Great Dane mix (84 pounds) and isn’t intimidated by their size at all. He enjoys canine companionship and would likely do well with a playful dog sibling.It’s believed that Hershey may be a German Shepherd/Lab mix, so he will likely grow into a medium-to-large-sized dog. He already shows signs of being active and energetic, even as a young pup, so he would thrive with a family who enjoys walks, hikes, jogging, running, or other adventures.Beyond his playful side, Hershey is a total cuddle bug. He loves being close to his people and aims to please. He catches on to commands quickly and is incredibly smart — the kind of puppy who truly wants to learn and make you proud.
