Story
Polaris is a young girl who was found dumped on the side of the road with a bag of dog food dumped on the ground as her only help for survival. A good samaritan picked her up and contacted me. Help Polaris never face that kind of treatment again by giving her a forever home. She is very sweet and friendly and great with other dogs and people and kids. She definitely has a prey drive though, which is not at all unusual for dogs, so no kitties or small animals. She walks well on the leash and does well in a crate. She is currently still in Oklahoma where she was rescued but she can only be adopted out of state where people treat animals well. She has to be prepaid and picked up directly from transport at one of our transport drop off locations below. If things don't work out for some reason, which rarely ever happens, we will either find a local foster to take her in or she will go back to Oklahoma on our next transport until a new home is found. Note: No dogs are advertised as potty-trained because most dogs need at least some re-training in a new environment and after being in a shelter/rescue environment/strays. www.facebook.com/desideratarescue (copy and paste into a new browser window) Transport locations: - Washington State (Kennewick, Spokane, Tumwater, Tacoma, Tukwila, Lynnwood/Edmonds, Bellingham) - Oregon (Portland and Springfield) - Colorado (Ft Lupton) - Idaho (Heyburn and Boise/Meridian) - Utah (Ogden) - Wyoming (Evanston, Rock Springs, Laramie) - Montana (Missoula) - Illinois (Vandalia, Springfield, Chicago) - Indiana (Spiceland, Burn Harbor) - Michigan (St Joseph, Battle Creek, Ann Arbor) - Wisconsin (Madison, Wausau, Eau Claire, Appleton, Milwaukee) - Minnesota (Minneapolis/St Paul) - Iowa (Des Moines) - Ohio (Columbus and London) - Pennsylvania (Erie, Pittsburgh and Harrisburg) - New York (Buffalo and Albany) - Connecticut (Enfield) - New Jersey (Bedminster) - Nevada (Las Vegas) - Arizona (Flagstaff) Vetting: spayed, microchipped, rabies vaccine, bordetella vaccine, dhpp vaccine x 3, lepto vaccine x 2, dewormed several times, on monthly flea and tick prevention, on monthly heartworm protection, heartworm tested (negative) Adoption fee: $550 (includes the $250 cost of transport from Oklahoma and all vetting listed above) Adoption application (copy and paste into a new browser window): https://form.jotform.com/82677586784176 FAQs (copy and paste into a new browser window): https://docs.google.com/document/d/12eb_SRtk1AzaBl87UltcLJ24MjH9UhQm_LE77iWZEQA/edit?tab=t.0 Desiderata Rescue is Oklahoma Licensed Rescue #95

Nanny is good with other dogs but can be nervous at first but once she`s comfortable, she loves to play. Nanny is currently around 50 pounds. Young children may be too much for Nanny so please take that into consideration if you`re interested. Apply to meet her at www.cchswi.org DATCP License #266742-DS

Story
Video (copy link and paste into a new browser window): https://www.youtube.com/shorts/XhjKdp04aiA Charlie is a 6 month old shepherd mix who is the happiest, friendliest boy. He is so fluffy and cute. He loves other dogs and is great with cats too. He loves being outside so a home with a yard is a must. He loves the pond and romping through the woods but also just lounging in the sun. He is low maintenance with no behavioral issues. He's never been walked on a leash since he's been roaming freely on the property so that's the only negative I can think of to mention about him. He is currently still in Oklahoma where he was rescued but he can only be adopted out of state where people treat animals well. He has to be prepaid and picked up directly from transport at one of our transport drop off locations below. If things don't work out for some reason, which rarely ever happens, we will either find a local foster to take him in or he will go back to Oklahoma on our next transport until a new home is found.

Story
🐾 Meet Pam— The Sweetest Companion You Could Ask For! 🐾Looking for a loyal, gentle soul to share your days with? Meet Pamela (Pam), a beautiful German Shepherd mix estimated to be around 8–10 years old. She’s the perfect blend of calm and affectionate, happiest when she’s by your side or relaxing nearby, keeping an eye on her favorite people. She gets along wonderfully with other dogs and is great with kids — patient, friendly, and always up for a bit of love. Pam is the kind of dog who quietly wins your heart with her loyal eyes and steady presence. She enjoys going for walks, trotting along to sniff the world around her, and has a funny streak when it comes to chasing squirrels (they keep her young at heart!). She did amazing at the groomer and loves a good pampering day.Because she still has that shepherd instinct to explore, she’ll do best in a home with a fenced yard or when kept on a leash during outdoor adventures. If you’re looking for a calm, loving, and loyal companion who will adore being part of your family, Pam is your girl. She’s ready to find her forever home — could that be with you? ❤️apply at wbdr.org

This is Ash. He is 2 years old and loves to play fetch, tug a war, going for runs, and sniffing everything. He is very protective of his home and family.
