Story
Woof! Hey there, I'm Ace, and I've got quite the story to tell. You see, I wasn't always living the ruff life. I was caught up in a tough situation—a hoarding situation, to be exact. The woman in charge was charged with animal cruelty, and rightfully so. It was a tough time for all of us. In that chaotic environment, I didn't have much structure or love. It was a struggle just to survive each day. But despite everything, I held onto hope. And now, here I am, ready to turn over a new leaf and find my forever home. Sure, I might have some trust issues, especially when it comes to sharing my toys. Can you blame me after what I've been through? But deep down, I'm still that intelligent, confident guy who's eager to learn and eager to love. If you don't have some patience, I may not be the one for you. At 6 years old, I've seen my fair share of hardships, but I haven't lost my spirit. I'm already neutered and ready to start fresh with a family who understands my breed and is willing to give me the love and patience I need to thrive. So if you're up for the challenge of helping me heal and grow, I promise to repay you with endless loyalty and affection. Let's leave the past behind us and start a new chapter together. Are you ready to give this survivor the loving home he deserves? &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143  The adoption fee includes age appropriate vaccinations and deworming, Frontline application, spay or neuter surgery, collar, ID tag and a leash.  A $35 (non-refundable) deposit will hold the pet for you for 5 days.  Call 803-536-3918 for more information or email at: aro.spca@outlook.com. October 26, 2024, 2:55 am

To meet our sweet and loving Brendon is to know true love. He is very bright and smart, he is so engaging with us here.  Brendon is always eager for play time and learning new things. He is loving and gets along great with the bigger dogs and the small dogs here, not to mention that he has the most unique coloring we have ever seen on a GSD. He is happy to meet new people and has an outstanding temperament, he loves children. He would make an outstanding addition to most any family. If you are interest in him or any of the other dogs/puppies at NBSR please click on this link to fill out our online adoption application via our website. Application For Adoption | newbeginningsrescue  Have a blessed and beautiful day!   New Beginnings Shepherd Rescue is a volunteer based rescue, we work very hard to help as many adoptable GSDs as possible. Most of our dogs come from high kill shelters across the country, so sadly we do not have any background information on them.....but we work very hard to get to know each and every dog brought into our program in need of a new beginning in their lives. We do not take animals with aggression problems (some may not like other dogs, cats, or may require older kids as opposed to younger children, but we will let you know everything that we know) most of these beautiful dogs have been faithful and loving family pets for their entire lives, yet still have lost their homes and families through no fault of their own. If you are interested in opening your heart and home to one of these amazing dogs please fill out our adoption application at https://www.newbeginningsrescue.com/adoption-application and we will get back in touch after we get it processed. If you don't hear from us in 3 days, please send us a gentle reminder and one of us will get right on it. Please indicate the dog you are interested in meeting, where it says preference on the application! You may also email julie@newbeginningsrescue.com , we are always happy to answer any questions you may have. If you give them your heart, they will give you theirs.  February 16, 2025, 7:34 am
