Story
Trooper is a smart, loyal boy who truly loves his people and his pack. Inside the home, he is mellow and easygoing, but once outdoors, his playful, energetic side shines. He is a big fan of fetch, tug‑of‑war, daily walks, and backyard playtime. Chew toys and bones are also high on his list of favorite things.Trooper would thrive in a home with a yard and plenty of companionship and patience; another friendly pet or someone who works from home or is retired would be ideal. He knows basic commands like sit and stay, is fully potty‑trained, and walks well on‑leash.He was not well socialized when he was younger, so he can be nervous around unfamiliar dogs. With patience and positive experiences, he can continue building confidence. Trooper is partially crate-trained and does have separation anxiety, so he needs an adopter willing to help him work through that with gentle structure and consistency.He is healthy, up‑to‑date on vaccinations, and ready for a loving home.

Story
This is a very smart, very trainable, cuddly dog. He is my first dog, and I’m realizing I’m not a dog person. I want him to have a human that he is close with. He doesn’t have separation anxiety or tear the house up. He doesn’t even dig through the trash if I leave it out. He is a little shy at first, but he warms up and enjoys visitors. He LOVES the beach and dog parks. He jumps right in the car without any prompting, but he will whine a bit once you start driving. That has been improving, though. Please ask anything you want to know.

Story
Hello this is Zero! He’s 5 years old, born 10/29/2021. Me and my family are currently living in an apartment and usually always out working/in school. It’s a really hard decision but I think if zero had a home with a yard and great family who will train/treat him properly his life would be much more fulfilling. He’s a silly dog who loves dogs but isn’t very social. He’s not very kind to people if they approach too close. It may be a boundary issue. He loves walks and smelling everything. Be aware he will eat any food on the ground. At home he is pretty good except when in the kitchen, definitely will snatch snacks/food. He loves to tear up toys and bones. He was trained to pee on a pee pad anytime inside when we aren’t available. We do have a hard time when clipping nails some aggression over that. Overall he is a nice pet just needs much more love and attention! I got zero from a friend for free in high school so I will cherish our last 5 years forever.

Winnie

Mutt

Female, Adult
Poway, CA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Beautiful German Shepherd mix looking for a loving home! Winnie is 3.5 years old, fully vaccinated, has had regular dental cleanings and a DNA breed test. She was rescued from the streets of Mexico as a puppy and, because of her past, is scared of new people. Once she bonds with someone, she becomes incredibly loving and devoted. She also loves stuffed toys and carries them around for comfort. Winnie is crate trained but has separation anxiety. She is very smart, listens well, and is completely potty trained. She’s generally lazy but enjoys long walks, runs, and playing fetch. She gets along with our small dog and cats but does not get along with our larger dog. She would likely do best as the only dog or with small pets. She may chase cats to play, so a home with cats that run from dogs may not be ideal. Winnie is truly the sweetest girl and just needs patience, love, and time to feel safe.

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Ella does best when she has her own space and can be territorial in the home. After welcoming our daughter, we learned that Ella is not comfortable living with young children, which has led us to make the very difficult decision to find her a home better suited to her needs. Ella can also be reactive toward other dogs and should be the only pet in the home. She completed a board-and-train program and is e-collar trained, which has helped her tremendously on walks and around other dogs in public. Her ideal home is adult-only, pet-free, and preferably has a yard or an active owner who enjoys daily walks and adventures. More than anything, Ella wants a loving human she can call her own.

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Meet Dray, a handsome, adventurous 7-year-old who is looking for his forever home. I adopted him at 2 months old. He’s curious, energetic, loyal, and happiest when he’s outside exploring with his person. Dray’s dream home would have a large yard, acreage, and the ability to come in and out of the home as he pleases or easy access to a big park to walk, hike or play ball. He loves being outdoors and would thrive with someone who can make adventure or play part of his everyday life. Dray is more of a “lone wolf” and values his space. He can be possessive of his belongings and wil be cautious with new people or pets; With patience and slow proper introductions, he can form strong bonds and become loving and protective. Dray loves: walks, hiking, camping, fetch, peanut butter, fish-based food, his people. He’s not a fan of: chicken based foods, abrupt greetings like strangers touching his face, children, or long cuddles, he prefers affection on his terms. Dray is a good boy!
