Story
Meet Chia Seeds, a six and a half year old German Shepherd mix weighing 65 pounds.Chia Seeds is an absolute delight with the sweetest personality and the most adorable fox-like face. Her beautiful sugar muzzle only adds to her charm, giving her a distinguished look that perfectly matches her gentle spirit.Chia Seeds was found abandoned near an elk feeding station, far from where anyone would expect a dog to end up on her own. She has a microchip, and although we reached out to the listed owners—and even confirmed through a relative that we had the correct contact information—we never received a response. Now this deserving girl is ready to leave her past behind and find a family that will love her for the rest of her life.Her finders had wonderful things to say about her. They reported that Chia Seeds peacefully coexisted with their outdoor chickens and cats, never bothering them. They even watched her on security cameras calmly walking past the animals without issue. While every new home and animal introduction should be done slowly and thoughtfully, this speaks to her kind and respectful nature.As a German Shepherd, Chia Seeds is part of a breed known for its intelligence, loyalty, and eagerness to bond with its family. German Shepherds thrive when they are included in daily life and enjoy learning through positive, reward-based training. They are happiest when they have regular exercise, mental enrichment, and plenty of time with their people, making them devoted companions for families who are ready to include them in their adventures.Chia Seeds is a sweet, affectionate girl who deserves a second chance with a family that will never leave her behind. If you`re looking for a loyal companion with a gentle heart, a beautiful fox-like face, and so much love to give, Chia Seeds is ready to become your new best friend.This pet is available for adoption on 7/28/2026 3:00 PM at the Yakima Humane Society adoption center.

Story
Meet Mystic, a one year old Shepherd/Pit mix weighing 71 pounds.Mystic is a big, sweet boy with a very tender heart who has clearly not had an easy life. He was seized by Animal Control due to neglect and arrived in our care suffering from ear infections, yeast infections, skin issues, and pressure sores. Thankfully, he has received the treatment he needed and is feeling much better, but he may benefit from a special diet moving forward to help prevent future skin and yeast flare-ups.Despite his size, Mystic can be incredibly unsure of the world around him. It is clear that he has had very little positive socialization, so many everyday things are still scary and unfamiliar. When he is nervous, this big boy shakes like a leaf, and it is heartbreaking to see just how much reassurance he needs to feel safe.Mystic is sweet but cautious, and he would thrive in a quiet, patient home that is willing to let him take things at his own pace. He doesn’t need to be rushed or pushed into situations that overwhelm him. Instead, he needs someone who will give him time, gentle encouragement, and plenty of positive experiences so he can slowly learn that he is safe.Mystic has already been through so much, and now he deserves the chance to experience the kindness, patience, and security he may have never known before. With the right person by his side, we hope this gentle giant will slowly discover his confidence and learn just how wonderful life can be.This pet is available for adoption on 8/19/2026 3:04 PM at the Yakima Humane Society adoption center.

Story
Meet Joker, a three-year-old Belgian Malinois/German Shepherd mix weighing 60 pounds.oker is an exceptionally smart, high-energy guy with the kind of working drive that makes Malinois lovers light up! This boy is not looking for a life of lounging on the couch—he wants a job, an activity, and a person who will keep his brilliant mind and busy body engaged.Joker is highly motivated by both treats and toys, which makes him a fun and rewarding dog to train. He is excitable and can be mouthy when he gets worked up, so we redirect that energy onto appropriate toys. Because of his intensity and mouthy play style, we’re currently recommending a home without young children.And boredom? Not an option for Joker! He is an escape artist when left outside alone without enough to do, so his future family will need to provide secure fencing, supervision, enrichment, and plenty of mental and physical exercise. He’ll thrive with someone who genuinely enjoys training and working with their dog.Joker has done well with some dogs and cats, but he appears to be selective about his canine and feline friends. A meet-and-greet with any resident pets will be required before adoption to make sure everyone is a good match.Belgian Malinois are intelligent, athletic working dogs bred for tasks that require focus, stamina, and a willingness to work. They often thrive when given structured training, physical exercise, and mentally stimulating activities.
