** $90 in pledges for the rescue that pulls ** Mammas ACCT-A-214773 is currently considered urgent and at risk of euthanasia due to length of stay and lack of space for incoming dogs. Mammas must have confirmed placement with a RESCUE PARTNER or EXPERIENCED ADOPTER by Sunday, March 30th at 10 A.M. Should Mamma’s medical or behavioral status change, her urgency and timeline for placement may also change. Mammas is a beautiful female Shepherd who was surrendered to the shelter when her owner could no longer afford to care for her. While little was shared about her past, her owner did describe her as very hyper. Since arriving, Mammas has shown a mix of shyness and high energy, needing time to warm up to new people and situations. She is now available for adoption to experienced adopters with shepherd experience and children 12+, as well as to rescue. During intake, Mammas was incredibly sweet, seeking attention by throwing herself onto staff members for pets. However, the stress of the shelter quickly became overwhelming for her—she was initially too nervous to leave her kennel, showing extreme anxiety, including wall climbing and air chomping. With time and medication support, she has adjusted somewhat, but she remains a sensitive girl in need of a structured and understanding home. Mammas has shown improvement in handling and dog interactions. Recently, she had a great session out of her kennel, where she was eager to go outside, pulling moderately on the leash but displaying no concerning behaviors. She was affectionate, allowing pets all over, including belly rubs, and received attention from multiple staff members without issue. While previous notes suggested she may be people-selective, staff did not observe those behaviors. She also had a positive drop-leash dog meet with "Cherry," a social playgroup dog. Initially nervous, Mammas quickly warmed up, engaging in play with loose body language, play bows, and chase. She was easy to leash and remove from the yard and returned to her kennel without issue. However, in a separate introduction with another dog, she struggled with overexcitement, pulling and whining throughout the meet. When finally allowed to approach, she air-snapped at the other dog’s face but was redirected. She then became fixated and required space to calm down before returning to her kennel without issue. Mammas has made great progress, but she will need an experienced adopter who can manage her leash frustration and provide the structure she craves. While she has shown potential with other dogs, careful introductions will be necessary. She is a smart, affectionate girl who just needs the right environment to thrive. If you have shepherd experience and are looking for a loving but energetic companion, Mammas may be the perfect fit for you!

She is incredibly treat motivated, allowed all over handling. Per staff 3/25/25: I met Mammas for the first time today. She is such a cute shepherd! We did a drop leash meet with her and Cherry, she had no barrier reactivity at the fence and was pretty steerable. She first came in a bit fearful but after a minuet she began trying to play with Cherry. She had loose body language and was play bowing trying to get Cherry to play chase. After some time in the yard, she came over to me soliciting attention and jumped up on me. She allowed all handling with me! Per staff 3/25/25: Mammas did a fantastic job out of her kennel today, not only for general handling but also for a one-on-one dog meet. She came out of the kennel with no issue, she was eager to get out. Pulls moderately on leash but no overly concerning behaviors noted. I was able to pet her all over including belly rubs, she also received pets from other staff members. There were concerning memos about being somewhat people selective, I did not witness any of those behaviors. I believe she gets frustrated on leash. Dog Meet: Mammas met with "Cherry" who is a playgroup rockstar and also currently has a URI. No barrier reactivity noted upon entering yard. Mammas proved to be pretty steerable as well. She was nervous at first when greeting Cherry but after a short period of around a minute she began soliciting for play. Play bows, loose body language and playing chase. She also barks to initiate play. She was also easy to leash and remove from yard and return to kennel. Per staff 3/25/25: Recorded Mammas’ dog meet video. When she came out, she came out hot—not aggressive, just pulling strongly toward Cola, the other dog. We did a fence meet first, and she was whining and tugging to meet Cola. We decided to do a distance walk along, and Mammas pulled, barked, and whined the whole time. She was pulling so strongly that we gave them a break before moving forward, allowing Mammas to take a breather. During that time, the handler gave her treats, and she took them nicely and even did "sit," but not right away. When she finally calmed down, we had the other handler bring Cola over. She again started pulling and then did a quick air snap at Cola’s face, which Mammas' handler was able to pull her back from. She then started barking, was fixated on the other dog, and wouldn’t break her fixation. We had to move her to a different location to give her a breather and allow her to calm down. During that time, the handler gave her treats until the other dog was out of sight. Going back in, she was fine and even went into her kennel with no issues. Per staff 3/13/25: Mammas was very sweet and gentle during intake, showed no aggression and solicited pets by throwing her body on Nurse, and both ACAs in intake room. She seems very shy and scared. Got all vaccines, but did not place chip due to pt vocalizing stress after vaccines and beginning to refuse restraint. did not want to escalate. Seems like a very sweet girl and allowed a male ACA to pick her up when refusing to walk. Belly up most of intake. Per staff 3/12/25: Unable to check in dog due to behavior. ACA couldn't get her out of kennel because she was too stressed out, trying to climb the walls and chomping at the air nervously. Started on trazodone. Per staff 3/9/25: I went to see Mammas, she was in TTA. When I approached the kennel, she was timid, backing up and barking. Definitely a scared bark, not an aggressive one. Per owner 3/9/25: really hyper, friendly, shy, scared, and playful for behavior Medical Notes: 3/24/25: Negative for canine pneumovirus 3/17/25: Positive for canine pneumovirus 3/14/25: This dog has been observed to have shelter acquired upper respiratory infection (URI), or a "doggy cold". They have been started on medication, and will be monitored for resolution of the respiratory infection. 03/13/2025 Weight: 48.5 lbs Body Condition Score: 3 - Thin Eyes - clear, no ocular d/c Ears - clean Nose - clear Mouth/Teeth/Gums - gums moist, good CRT, teeth LTN staining ~ 2 year old.

Hades ACCT-A-212625 is currently considered urgent and at risk of euthanasia due to behavioral concerns, more specifically dog reactivity. Hades must have confirmed placement with a RESCUE PARTNER or ADOPTER by Sunday, March 30th at 10 A.M. Should Hades’ medical or behavioral status change, his urgency and timeline for placement may also change. Meet Hades! This 2.5-year-old German Shepherd/Blue Heeler mix is a high-energy, intelligent, and loving companion searching for the right home. Hades was deeply loved by his family, but after being attacked by an off-leash dog, he developed reactivity toward other dogs that they were unable to manage. While he previously lived with a dog and a cat, his history and recent evaluations suggest he would thrive best as the only pet in the home. Hades is amazing with people—he's affectionate, eager to please, and loves to engage with his humans. He enjoys playing fetch (and will bark if you're too slow to throw the toy!), running, swimming, and learning new tricks. He’s fully housebroken, crate trained, and knows a long list of commands. Though he can be anxious in new environments, he seeks comfort from his people and bonds deeply with his handlers. Due to his dog reactivity, Hades is looking for an experienced adopter, preferably someone familiar with shepherds or herding breeds. His ideal home would have a secure yard and be free of other animals, with patient owners who can provide structure and plenty of exercise. He would do best in a household with children 13 and older. Hades is a fun, loyal, and active dog who just needs the right environment to thrive. If you’re looking for an adventure buddy who will shower you with love and devotion, Hades might be the perfect match! Video: Hades (with muzzle) with Crown and Hunter: https://youtube.com/shorts/GjPVNe6oWzU?feature=share Behavior Notes:Per staff 3/26/25: Hades is great with people. Allows all handling and was able to be leashed easy and returned to kennel with no issue! Playgroup 3/26/25: was muzzled during playgroup--growling, high tail, hackles raised, stiff. Disliked Hunter (male dog who sniffed him). Gave corrections, had to be removed from yard, muzzled stayed on. Per volunteer 3/26/25: Hades is a friendly, social, and energetic 2-year-old pup looking for an experienced adopter, especially someone familiar with shepherds. While he’s a sweet and affectionate companion, he has shown some reactivity towards other dogs on walks. He will also chase cats and would do best in a home without them. Hades thrives on human interaction, often seeking comfort from his people and loving pets. He’s playful and engaging, and he loves toys--he will bark when you're not fast enough to throw them! Though anxious in new situations, he’s eager to bond with his handler. If you have the experience and patience to help Hades continue to grow into the best version of himself, he’ll reward you with loyalty, love, and lots of fun! Per staff 3/26/25: Making available to experienced adopters, especially those with shepherd experience. Owner noted that Hades has become reactive towards other dogs on walks, including their resident dog, but noted that he was less reactive when owners began walking the dogs separately. Hades has never bitten or attacked another animal per owner, but will bark and lunge towards other dogs when outside and will chase cats. Hades is also an intact 2 year old male and began displaying dog reactivity when he was 1 year old, so neutering may help to lessen his reactive behavior. Per staff 3/24/25: KENNEL PRESENTATION: Hades was at the front with a wagging tail and an open mouth. He was dodging the leash in the beginning but was able to be secured. Once secured he came right out. LEASH SKILLS: Pull moderately HANDLING : In the room, Hades came in with a mid level wagging tail and greeted the handlers with a smile. He was super friendly and social from the moment he saw another person and walked around trying to get his people to follow him. She refused all treats, whining and crying anxiously, consistently seeking comfort from his handlers. He sat patiently for the treats but didn't take anything of higher value. He allowed all handling and solicit for more face and ear rubs. PLAY: Engages in play TOYS: Takes possession, releases willingly, vocal with toys – barks when you don't throw it quick enough Per owner 3/23/25: Breed - Shepherd, German/American Blue Heeler. DOB - 06/01/2022. The owners had him since he was 4 months old. Very easy going inside, high energy; anxious and nervous outside. Best thing about him: His eagerness to please, a great running dog, great cuddly buddy (for a few moments). Lived with adults, large dogs, and cats. Reason for surrendering: Hades was attacked about a year and a half ago by a dog in our neighborhood. He has since developed reactivity to dogs, however, we have recently discovered this master from our other dog. When by himself, he doesn’t show nearly the same reactivity. Fully housebroken, fully crate trained, high energy with a passion for exercise and play, Super high energy like an athlete! Pulls a little on leash, goes on 3 walks a day, He loves bacon flavored snacks and ice cubes. Knows commands: Knows his/her name, Sit, Down, Lay down, No, Off, Stay, Wait, Drop it, Leave it. Likes: Rope toys, Balls, Squeaky toys, Bones or other durable chew toys, Stuffed animals and plush toys, Kongs. Favorite activities: Exploring outdoors, Playing fetch, Going for walks, Running/jogging, Hanging out with owners, Being petted, Learning new commands or tricks, Swimming or playing in water. Behavior issues: Too much energy/gets overstimulated, Gets into the trash can, Reactive/aggressive towards other dogs. Nervous/fearful/shy towards strangers. Aggressive/reactive (growls or lunges) towards other dogs. Selective of cats depending on the situation. Hades stalks the cats but has never tried to harm them. He is reactive (growling, lunging, hackles raised) towards other dogs when walking with our other dog. We have started walking them separately and we don’t see the same reactivity. Maybe mild interest. He is nervous if random people walk up to me mostly because I get nervous. High prey drive. Owner thinks he has an allergy to chicken Ideal home: Hades perfect home would look like a family with an older child that wouldn’t mind playing fetch most of the day or someone that will go on jogs for a few miles. Someone patient and understanding that, while he doesn’t want to lay in your lap, he would love to sit next to you on the couch. His perfect home will understand both of his breeds and that he will bark at the door and try to herd sometimes. Favorite thing about him: My favorite thing about Hades is his eagerness to please and how he is always ready for the next thing but he will also have a lazy day with you. Additional info: Hades is very smart and a very great dog. We are unsure if he will continue to be reactive without being around our other dog but he does respond well to training for reactivity - we just haven’t seen any progress because there are a lot of off leash dogs in our neighborhood that try to bite. He is a German shepherd/ blue heeler mix. His birthday is 6/1 and he was born in 2022. He had a rough start to his life which is why I took him in and he’s literally just grateful to be loved. Per owner 2/4/25: I am rehoming due to ongoing behavior issues. For about the last 12-16months we have started to have problems after Hades was attacked by another dog in our neighborhood. He wasn’t injured but he was deeply affected where our other dog wasn’t. We worked with him and did extra training and he got better, however, he then had another dog run up to him and try nipping at his leg. This is a common occurrence in our neighborhood with off leash dogs. We cannot walk him without him trying to lunge at any other dog he sees whether small or large, old or puppy. I have watched him pin puppies to the ground and after that, we stopped going to any dog parks. He cannot be around other dogs. He has started showing mild aggression towards our other dog. We can barely take him outside since even if he doesn’t ‘see’ another dog, he is always anticipating it and we cannot get his attention. Positive reinforcement nor any kind of leash training WE do has helped. He is muzzled when we go to family events and kept in a crate for the majority of the time. He is crated when we are at work because we don’t want to leave him out with our other dog while we are not home. He is amazing most of the time by himself and inside. He is eager to please, follows all commands, is potty trained, and crate trained. I know he would always be happier with us but our other dog is suffering. Hades is in a crate the majority of the day anyway and with his high energy it’s wearing on him as well as us. We can’t relieve it. I know he would do better in a home with a backyard or somewhere he can get the training he needs. We cannot afford training ourselves, and with the amount of off leash dogs, I don’t see it sticking.

He is a bit conflicted about meeting new people at first, but once he warms up he is a sweet boy who knows how to sit and likes treats! He barks when other dogs walk by. playgroup notes 3/25: Ronnie was reactive at the gate to the dogs and especially the male dogs. We muzzled him as a safety precaution but he did well in the yard.
