Story
Jewel's story is a heartbreaking one. It took us over a year to get her. She had an owner in Rosarito Mexico, but he would not feed her and only used her for breeding and guarding the property. Her last 2 litters came into our rescue very sick because of his overwhelming neglect. He only surrendered them when he thought they were going to die and he didn't want to deal with that "inconvenience." But after her last litter passed away we used that as the momentum to finally push him to allow us to take her. Because of the laws in Mexico you cant just steal a dog that has a legal owner without physical abuse videoed so we needed his permission to take her. I'll never forget the first time she came in the house, she wanted to so badly, and the moment she realized that she now had a bed in the house she lost it! She has the sweetest and sunniest disposition we have ever met! All she wants is love and attention. Her favorite are hugs, they solve any situation. If she is naughty, she needs a hug. If its beautiful out, she wants a hug. She is very smart and learns new skills quickly. She will do anything for pets and snuggles!

Story
Meet Zion, a 1.5 year old Australian Cattle Dog surrendered to Woof Gang Rehab by his previous owners. True to the cattle dog breed standard, Zion is loyal, smart, alert, and wary of strangers. With Zion’s training, the issues he was having leading to his surrender are very well managed. Zion is working on proofing his advanced obedience training, walks very well on leash, and is reliable off leash. Zion is looking for an active home that will continue to implement structure and keep up with his training to keep setting him up for success. He would be an excellent sport dog for anyone interested in getting him into a competition sport and/or other active lifestyle like hiking, running, or camping. Zion is a happy boy and hasn’t met a person whose face he couldn’t put a smile on. He is extremely eager to please, his engagement with his handler is amazing, and he’s always ready to go, go, go! Zion gets along very well with foster sister Kimber (a lab). Kimber has shown Zion that strangers aren’t always danger and has helped his confidence with new people. All Zion wants is for his family and friends to PET HIM. Zion also does great with other dogs. Zion is available now, and is currently fostered out of San Diego, CA. Please follow his foster on IG, @cuddleswithkimber and @woofgangrehab to follow his training journey! Please visit Zion's available dog page on our website to learn more about our program and apply to adopt him: ZION: https://woofgangrehab.org/available_dog/zion/ APPLY: https://woofgangrehab.org/rescue/adoption-application/

Story
I got Sadie Ann as a puppy, she is now almost 8 years old. She has been on a larger ranch property all these years and now I had to sell my home. Sadie needs a home where she can run around a lot because she has a lot of energy. She generally a one person dog and it will probably require a few days for her to trust a new master. She is generally shy yet protective also... She generally gets along with other dogs.

These pups are in Escondido, California too!

I am Sunny, I am a 3 years old Australian shepherd, I am a good boy and I am just a typical Aussie . I need a home with out children. A person that is retired or working from home would be best. We feel that a person mid- 40/60 who runs and is athletic and knows the breed will do well with this dog. Please no other dogs in this home. He is best as an only. He has had allot of training. He is a typical Aussie so he will need an Australia Shepherd experienced person. He likes going for walks and exercise . Sunny is vetted ,neutered and microchipped. If interested go to www.k9connectionpetadoption.org and fill out the adoption application for me, call Vicky @760-672-2258 We. are a rescue
