Meet Kash💙, the epitome of canine kindness, a 3-year-old Australian shepherd with a heart of gold💛 ! His temperament is truly inspiring, showcasing a unique blend of sweetness, kindness, shyness, docility, and submissiveness that makes him an exceptional addition to any pack😍. Kash's captivating blue eyes will undoubtedly melt your heart, and his resilience in the face of adversity is a testament to his remarkable spirit. Having overcome a severe flea infestation and subsequent skin condition with the help of medication, Kash is now ready to thrive in a loving environment. This incredible boy is in search of a foster or adopter to provide him with the love and care he so rightly deserves. With his neutering, chipping, and vaccination already taken care of, the only thing missing is a loving home 🏡 to call his own - will you be the one to open your heart and home to precious Kash?😻 Currently being cared in Southern California, Kash can be transported to northern states such as Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, or other locations within the continental United States, where a loving family awaits to welcome him.

Story
Nera will be 4 years old on December 6, 2025. She came to us as a baby from a breeder in Utah. Nera is a sweet tempered, lovable dog, cuddly when she wants to be. She will pretty much set the time and place for cuddles. She will choose the person she wants to sleep with, if she chooses anyone at all or prefers to sleep alone. She loves activity and would need a family that is active to take her on walks, runs, hikes. She isn’t used to a lot of this, and her new family would have to start slowly. She can be very playful but she will choose the time and place. She likes to play pull, and she will bring you toys. Don’t be worried if she gets bored playing quickly. It’s breaking my heart to rehome my beloved dog, but due to an unexpected medical condition, I can no longer care for her. Right now she is with a wonderful family and is happy.

Story
Haku, age 6 mostly border collie, a little German shepherd. Got him as a puppy, only one owner. Incredibly high energy, sweet and loving. No aggression, can easily flip him over, roll on his back, play around, grab his feet or any part of him and he’s totally fine with it. A little separation anxiety and wants to be around people all the time. Sleeps in bed with us but doesn’t love to snuggle. The fastest dog I’ve ever seen, incredibly agile and athletic. Needs tons of exercise. Eats really well (slight growls and food protection with other animals), very healthy and in shape, no medical problems or illnesses. Not super treat driven but very toy driven. He’s truly the fetch king. Can fetch for hours on end, he’s obsessed. Fully house trained, crate trained (loves his crate). Can get a little barky with strangers or knocks on the door but has never bitten or hurt anyone. Insanely intelligent and picks up new tricks or training immediately. Infinitely trainable. Needs a job!
