Story
I’m a 5-year-old Rottweiler, about 75 lbs, and my story is a tough one. My owner left me at a boarding kennel and never came back. It’s been almost 3 years now that I’ve been waiting behind these same walls, hoping someone would give me a second chance. Despite everything, I’m still a sweet soul who just wants love, kindness, and a home to call my own. I have found a rescue (The Heroic Tail) that will help me. They will do my adoption and provide free training if needed. They just want to see me out of the kennels and in a loving home. If you would like to meet me please apply on the website or message them with questions about me.October 5, 2025, 7:51 pm

Story
Amigo is approximately 5 years, around 40 pounds, neutered, fully vaccinated & microchipped Rotti mix breed. He is crate trained but needs patience and practice with potty & leash training~ soon he will be a pro of all three!! He is affectionate, playful but can be a bit nervous when first met with unexpected changes. Amigo gets along well with most dogs (but also a little dominant so we suggest he be paired with a female companion), adults and older children alike. Given his adaptability, he should be able to learn your family’s routine rather quickly and become part of the gang in no time!!! Amigo was rescued from the streets of Tecate very neglected, malnourished, suffering with TVT and a broken paw due to an old injury. Fortunately he is now flourishing under the loving care of a foster. His TVT was treated and while he still limps; he is pain free (Feb 2024) Amigo has a lot of love to give and longs for a family who can provide him patience, affection and attention he craves. He deserves a warm and loving home where he can feel cherished as a member of the family!!!

Story
Age: 1 year old Gender: Male Breed: Doberman Pinscher / German Shepherd Mix Weight: 110 lbs Personality: Bear is a perfect balance of energy and affection. With a higher energy level, he enjoys daily walks and outdoor adventures, but he is equally content to relax and snuggle at home with his favorite people. Bear thrives on companionship of other dogs. He loves being close, often curling up beside you on the couch or even trying to fit on your lap, or wrestling with his foster fur sibling. Bear is incredibly loyal and likes to build strong bonds with the people around him. Bear's intelligence shines through in how quickly he picks up new commands and tricks, making him fun and easy to train. Playful and sweet, Bear adores his toys—whether it’s a game of fetch, throwing his toys in the air, or simply chewing on a bone or a favorite squeaky toy. Bear has a gentle and friendly nature that makes him good with older children (his energy and size may be too much for toddlers). He loves other dogs and will play with them non-stop if given the opportunity. Overall, Bear is a wonderful companion, blending playfulness with loyalty and a strong desire for close connection. Education: Bear is potty trained, crate trained, and he knows commands like sit, stay, lay down. Walking on a leash is still a work in progress, but Bear is doing well and will continue to need proper socialization, training, and consistency. He has no separation anxiety. Favorite Activities: Bear loves to go on walks and enjoys watching all the action around him. He loves being with his people and wants to make sure he is making them happy, and loves even more to have a dog to engage in play with in the home. Bear loves to snuggle and give hugs. Bear loves throwing around stuffed toys and chewing on bones and chew sticks. Bear enjoys car rides and is either sticking his nose out the window or falling fast asleep for the drive. Looking for: Bear will be a great companion for outdoor activities like walking, hiking, or playing fetch, making him a perfect dog for active individuals or families with another dog in the home. Bear is always affectionate, eager to please, and enjoys spending quality time with his people and is happiest when he is included in family activities. Anyone who adopts Bear will get a loyal, smart, curious, playful, and very sweet best friend. Follow his foster @joey.n.friends.new.adventures ! Special needs: Some skin allergies Adoption Fee: $ 500 ##2230975##
