My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Driftwood River Banks – Your Adventure Buddy for Life!

Hi there! My name is Driftwood River Banks, but you can just call me Driftwood! I’m a handsome 3.5-year-old German Shepherd with a heart as big as the river I was found near.

I have quite the legendary tale—I was once a famous mystery dog! For months, I survived alone on Horseshoe Bend, where kind boaters would leave me sandwiches. But even with all that love from afar, I was still alone… until a heroic rescue by The Humane Society, Animal Control, and The Rescue Squad brought me to safety. My story was even featured in a magazine—yep, I’m kind of a big deal!

Now, I’m ready for my happily ever after—a home where I can trade my survival instincts for belly rubs and treats. Because of my time in isolation, I’d do best as the only pet in a home with a secure fenced yard to keep me safe. But don’t worry, I more than make up for it with my loyalty, love, and devotion to my humans!

If you’re looking for a brave, loving, and adventurous companion, I might just be your perfect match. Let’s start our next chapter together—come meet me today!
