Grisham

Adopted: 08/12/2017!

Gender: Male

Breed: German Shepherd Mix

Approximate Age: 9 years

Color: Black & Tan

Current Size: 63 lbs

Ideal/Potential Size:

Housebroken: Yes

Obedience Trained: Yes

Living with: Foster

History: Shelter

Good with Kids: Yes

Good with Cats: Unknown

Other Dogs OK: Yes

Description

Grisham is a friendly boy with lots of puppy energy, at only 1 yr he is still a puppy.  Training will go along way in helping him learn good manners and create a bond with his new family.  Young dogs need a lot of attention and guidance, so please be sure you are able to commit to Grisham for the rest of his life.

Updates:
Grisham is a very sweet and good-natured young dog.  He has been living in his foster home for a couple weeks now, and has settled in wonderfully.  He is very well adjusted to his crate, has proven he is housebroken, and gets along splendidly with the two older resident dogs.  He is coming along very well with some of his obedience commands, and has a good sit and down, and has really made great progress on his leash manners.   He meets new dogs easily and well with proper introductions, keeping in mind he is still pretty young and puppyish, so may be a little “over the top” for some older and more reserved dogs.  As a young dog he has boatloads of energy, and loves to run and play in the yard, and go biking with his foster dad.  He is happy to meet all people, young and old, and loves to curl up at your feet and hang out (once he’s burned his puppy energy off!).   Grisham may be a bit stubborn sometimes when he is uncertain about what is going on –  for example he wasn’t going anywhere near the vacuum cleaner the first time he met one.  But he is very handsome and charming young GSD mix that is very upbeat and eager to please.  Please ask to meet Grisham if he sounds like the dog for you!

Obedience Trained: No

Living with: Foster

History: Shelter

Good with Kids: Yes

Good with Cats: Unknown

Other Dogs OK: Yes

Description

Achilles made his way to us after he had been turned into a shelter by his former family.  He is strikingly handsome, full of puppy energy and mannerisms.  It is obvious that no one ever worked with him on good manners.  A good training program along with structure and consistency will go along way in helping him become a good K9 citizen.  He is no couch potato and has so much too learn, it is important that his new family has the time and patience to work with him.

Updates:
Achilles is a sweet boy looking for a home to call his own. He came to his foster home looking forward to a warm bed and plenty of nice pets. The first order of business was to give him a bath, and he trusted his foster mom to clean him up, giving no trouble at all. Achilles particularly loved getting a "furmination." When Achilles is hanging out at home, he is usually playing with his foster sister (who is half his size) or being just close to his family. Achilles didn't love the crate at first, but got used to it once he realized it was a safe place. He is mostly housebroken and could use some basic obedience. Achilles's foster family has no doubt that he would make a loving addition to any home with dogs, kids, or anybody else. He is loving and wants to receive just as much love himself.  , Over the past couple of days Achilles has been opening up and showing how sweet and gentle he really is. When not playing with his foster sister, he is close his humans hanging out or giving kisses. He loves massages too! Achilles is used to his crate and will gladly go in and enjoy chewing bones in there! He really good with both people and dogs. On nice days he likes to go outside and hang out on the porch and watch people and cars go by. Achilles sleeps well at night in his foster parents bedroom on his bed. He is waiting for his forever home and can't wait to show them how awesome he is!

Jolene

Adopted: 08/09/2017!

Ideal/Potential Size:

Housebroken: Yes

Obedience Trained: No

Living with: Foster

History: Stray to Shelter

Good with Kids: Yes

Good with Cats: Unknown

Other Dogs OK: Yes

Description

Jolene was found as a stray with a pretty significant cut/wound to her leg.  The shelter provided her with medical care but unfortunately her wound has not completely healed.  Jolene has been seen by our vet and will be seeing a specialist to see what can be done to help with the healing of the wound.  This  has certainly cramped Jolene's style as she is a high energy girl who loves to run, play and go for walks.  Exercise helps burn off some of that energy, but she will have to forgo excessive exercise until her leg has completely healed.  Once all healed up she will be ready for a running partner.  Jolene does better with male dogs and non dominant female dogs.

Updates:
I am settling into my foster home wonderfully. I love my foster kids in the house. My foster dad says I'm a happy thing and I follow my foster mom everywhere she goes...even when she exercises. I want nothing more than to be loved on and play with my toys. I'm really looking forward to playing fetch again. If you are looking for a devoted friend for life to snuggle with you and play with you adopt me! I'm worth it. , I am doing great in physical therapy and continue to be a great sport through all of the exercises both at home and there. My leg is getting better everyday. I have really settled in and look forward to my exercises, walks and visits to the bus stop. The better my leg gets the more I want to play tug and fetch but it will still be a little while longer. Hopefully when I go back to the doctor he will give the go ahead to run, jump and play because I am dying to do it. I have lots of energy and need a family that can keep up with me. My foster parents say that I'm a really special girl and will make some family a wonderful pal for life. If you have the time and energy please adopt me.

Description

Sam is a very handsome 8 year old male GSD.  He has not been well cared for up until now, he is underweight and entered the shelter covered in fleas.  Life has changed for the better, he is now receiving good nutrition, he has been treated for the flea infestation and he is much loved by our rescue.  Now all that Sam needs is a family who will love him and provide proper care for his lifetime.  Please consider Sam for your family, he deserves a new start at a better life.

Updates:
Before writing Sam's update, I interviewed other family members to see what they have to say about Sam. ORHD aged 8: My favorite t​hing about Sam: he is sometimes funny when he steals pillows off of the couch and snuggles with them. If Sam had a human job it would be a boxer; no, the guy who shoots t-shirts out of the big gun at games and makes everyone cheer. Sam was very stinky when he came here but he smells better now. I hope his new owner likes to give dogs baths. He liked his bath. HLHD aged 8: My favorite thing about Sam: he brings back the ball when I throw it. Also, he ran into the wall his first night here. He thought a shadow was a door. He put his head in my lap and made sad sounds and let me pat him. If Sam had a human job, he would says hello to everyone at [LARGE DISCOUNT STORE] and marker people's receipts. He would act like the job is fun. Sam can be annoying because he never wants to just do nothing, but he is very nice and silly. I hope his new owner buys a lot of tennis balls. MSD aged 6: My favorite thing about Sam: he looks funny when I put underpants on his head and stick his ears out of them. He really, for real, likes hugs. Not like some dogs that you can hug, but they want to get away. If Sam had a human job it would be a clown or a hugger who hugs people that need hugs. I hope Sam's new owner hugs him and never forgets to feed him. Foster dad: My favorite thing about Sam is that he does not have a mean bone in his body. He is starting to listen to his name, "No, Sam." If Sam had a job it would be the guy who really wants to tell you about his religion at the Metro. I hope Sam's new owner is expecting an eight-year-old dog to have as much energy as our 4-year-old one does. Slinky (resident dog-neutered-male) aged 4: My favorite thing about Sam is that he is available for adoption. If Sam had a human job it would be: proctologist. I hope Sam's new owner feeds Sam enough. Even though he is annoying, he just wants to be friends, and no dog deserves to be starved - like Sam was. Update from foster mom: Sam is enjoying life with a family, although he is really struggling to be calm and relax. He spends a lot of time pacing and seeking attention. He is not destroying anything, although he really likes an old couch pillow, which we are letting him keep. He carries it around but hasn't torn it up or taken anything else that he should not have. Sam is very eager to please and responds to a sharp, no. He has had zero training and is starting to understand that he needs to "sit" to be served dinner. Sam is housebroken and he is fine when left alone at home in a crate - handled an 8 hour day without issue. He is dramatic and vocal when crated while his people are home because he wants to be with them. Sam has accepted that he is not permitted to be in the humans' beds or on the couch. He is having a harder time realizing that the resident dog doesn't like him "like that." That issue should improve after Sam is neutered. On a positive note, he accepts rejection well. Sam walks nicely on a leash. He has met a males and females of all ages and sizes and done well with a variety of personalities. He would likely do well with a bossy female or any dog that wouldn't meet his exuberance with aggression. Sam has shown no interest in chasing rabbits or squirrels, when they are around, so it seems likely that he would be okay with a cat. Sam is an all around friendly guy, who will 100% do well with training, consistency, and that all important trip to the vet. , Meet AWESOME Sam!  Guess what---I know sit, stay, paw, down and I come when called!  Some friends took me out for the day and they discovered I know all of these commands and more!  I know how to speak on command and if you ask me to smile I will give you one bark—its’ not really a smile because I don’t show my pretty teeth but it is so cute J  Someone loved me so much that they spent a lot of time training me.   My friend took me to a horse show and I was out and about with horses, people and other dogs. I was even polite to those little dogs that don’t really look like dogs to me J   I was amazing and she was so impressed with me.  She took a photo of me hanging out with a horse. I am good with cats too!   Neither one of my new friends can take their dogs out in public—LOL!  I rode great in the car with my friend and I was so good on a leash at the horse show.  Most dogs can’t do what I did that day.   I am over the top impressive with the STAY command---I stayed with tons of distractions in my friend’s back yard.  There were people walking down the street with dogs, joggers, lawn mowers buzzing around but I STAYED until I was released.  Next they did a series of recalls with me just to make sure that I would come when called.  I came every single time they called me---they tried to trick me and one hid on the side of house so I could not see her but I came when she called.  Every single time I came to them the girls made me do a sit and then a down.  They wanted to make sure that I was SUPER SMART and I am!!!!!        The girls gave me treats for my impressive behavior and they discovered that I take treats gently.  My  mouth is super gentle and my new friend was so impressed---sometimes she calls her dog Jaws because he takes treats so hard which is so impolite.  Then the girls pulled out the dog puzzles and I started to excel playing the Brick game by Nina Ottosson and then came the Bob-a-Lot which I got in a New York minute!   I am good with kids too!  What’s not to like about me---come meet me!  Everyone is special but I am super special because I am trained, housebroken, can go out in public, like people, cats and kids and I am very handsome and loveable!

Breed: German Shepherd Dog

Ideal/Potential Size:

Housebroken: Yes

Living with: Foster

History: Owner Surrender

Good with Kids: Older kids, over 10

Good with Cats: Unknown

Description

Grizzly is the son of Apache and the brother to Keena.  Grizzly does best with another dog as they help him relax.  He is somewhat shy, he will require someone with patience and who will work on helping him build his confidence.  Training will go along way and certainly help with him getting use to being on a leash.  He is a sweet boy just a little unsure, it is obvious he was not well socialized, but with your help he should blossom.

Current Size: 80 lbs

Ideal/Potential Size:

Housebroken: Yes

Obedience Trained: No

Living with: Kennel

History: Owner Surrender

Good with Kids: Yes

Good with Cats: Unknown

Other Dogs OK: Yes

Description

Diesel is a very handsome, friendly young boy who was surrendered as his person fell on hard times.  He was very much loved and is greatly missed by his former person.  He is playful, full of young energy and enjoys to swim.  He has some manners to learn, but nothing that a good training program can't help with.  

Updates:
Diesel is a handsome, sweet, and young pup eager to play, learn, and loves good pets! When we first brought him home, all he wanted to do was play with our pocket shepherd (40lb mix). Being so young, he is surprisingly gentle when playing. This is true when walking him as well! Very good on the lead and doesn't pull. If he gets a little ahead, a little tug of the collar will get him focused back to you and the walk. He loves treats and will sit and command down for them. This morning we worked on "place" training, rewarding him with food. We also practiced heel/stop sit in the house. He caught on so quickly! This mental stimulation has already wiped him out before 9AM. Structure has been key and he is responding so well to it just within a day of having him. So far we can say he is fully housebroken. He is a little underweight so we are giving him structured opportunities to eat, with praise and within the crate. If you want young, pure GSD, he is the one! At 90 pounds (and counting) he is ready to find his forever home. I mean just look at those ears. How could you not want to take him home!

Housebroken: Yes

Obedience Trained: Yes

Living with: Foster

History: Shelter

Good with Kids: No

Good with Cats: Yes, but will chase

Other Dogs OK: Yes, with proper introduction

Description

Cagney landed in a shelter as a stray and no one came looking for her. She has done well with other dogs she has met and has been friendly with people she has met. She is a petite young girl who needs to gain a little weight. Training will go a long way for Cagney, as it does for all of our dogs. It is important that a bond is created between the dog and their handler/family. It helps you both learn more about each other and teaches good canine manners.

Updates:
Cagney has been in her foster home for a few weeks now and is settling in nicely. She loves toys and will bring them to her handler and drop them at his feet. She's been working on her social skills with her foster with dogs, cats & humans. She will need an experienced handler who will give her a structured environment. She gets along well with the other dogs in the foster home when its a toy-free environment. She's still got some work to do on her leash manners but that's because she's been working so hard on her social skills. She's improving with cats, but cannot be trusted at this time. Cagney loves people and dogs, but she's unsure about trusting them. Her foster will continue to work with her and building her trust with new people.

Obedience Trained: No

Living with: Foster

History: Owner Surrender

Good with Cats: Unknown

Description

Jackie is a beautiful 1 1/2 yr old female GSD.  She was surrendered to us as the other dog in the house would not accept her.  In her best interest the family reached out to us so that Jackie could find a new home and family.  She lived with children in her prior home and enjoyed playing with them.  Jackie is somewhat timid and will take time to become comfortable with her new family and surroundings.  She likes to take things slowly and seems to bond quicker with women then she does men.  The family that surrendered her to us rescued her after she was dumped in their yard late at night, so we have no history as to what happened to her prior to the last few weeks.  She loves hotdogs which quickly will win her over when she is feeling overwhelmed.  She just arrived in our care so she is still getting use to her new living arrangements and foster.

Angie

Adopted: 07/15/2017!

Ideal/Potential Size: 85-90 lbs

Housebroken: Yes

Obedience Trained: Partially

Living with: Kennel

History: Owner Surrender

Good with Kids: Older Kids Only

Good with Cats: Unknown

Other Dogs OK: No

Description

Angie was adopted in 2013 and recently returned after her family could no longer provide for her. She’s confident, friendly and outgoing.
Though she is currently overweight due to a thyroid condition, we are working on slimming her down. She has an interest in playing ball but does not have a lot of stamina at this time. But we’re confident this will change. She likes to go for leisurely walks and heels well on leash. She also likes to ride in the vehicle and does so very quietly.
She’s had some obedience training and knows German commands. Once she gets to know you, she loves to give kisses.
Because of her hypothyroid condition (low thyroid), she is on medication and will be for the rest of her life. This will require periodic bloodwork to check her response to the medication. The cost of her medication is very reasonable and is administered via a very small pill given twice daily with her food. This is a condition that is typically very simple to treat and regulate.
http://www.peteducation.com/article.cfm?c=2+2097&aid=449

Right now, we are re-familiarizing ourselves with her and will update you as we learn more about her. But at this time, she will only be placed in an adult home with no other dogs or cats.

Updates:
Angie is loving all the attention she is getting! She happily greets all of us who are working with her and taking care of her. Most recently, we set up a small plastic children's pool and she went right in, playing with her ball and splashing around. So knowing that she likes the water, we introduced her to the ground pool. As you can see, she likes that one, too! Swimming is a great source of exercise for her and she enjoys retrieving her toy in the water. Do you happen to have a pool and are looking for a really nice female shepherd? , Angie is doing fabulous with her new exercise regimen and diet!  She's losing some weight and is enjoying all the activity, frequently swimming, going for walks and playing ball. She just loves squeaker balls.  Angie's got a lot of personality and is such a joy to be with whether we are exercising or just hanging out relaxing in the shade. She's happy to do either so as long as she can be with you as she is eager to please. , Check out Angie's latest photo! We recently introduced her to some agility equipment. She walked up the catwalk with no hesitation whatsoever and sat for us just as pretty as she could to show off her new slimmer physique! She is a happy girl who is feeling great!

Description

Saphire came to us from a shelter with no known history.

She is a beautiful young friendly girl. She does know some basic commands, walks well on a leash and enjoys time with people.

Saphire does need to lose some weight, with proper diet and exercise this will be achieved.

Updates:
Sapphire has happily settled in to life on the farm with her foster.  She is a smart, happy, and friendly girl who enjoys walks around the farm, has successfully met the horses and several other dogs, and has been sweet and friendly with all of the humans she has met.  She needs some exercise to help her lose some weight, so is perfect for someone who likes to walk with a girl who is well-behaved on a leash, curious about her surroundings, and a pleasure to have around. She is crate-trained but seldom needs to be in the crate, since she seems to be well house-broken.  She is content laying at your feet when in the room with you, but jumps right up and is ready to go when you want to head outside.  Sapphire’s foster doesn’t have any young children, so she can’t comment on how she will be with children, but she has been very friendly with all the people she’s met so far. If you are looking for a sweet family dog with a great start on good manners, please ask to meet Sapphire.
