Story
Maxfield was rescued from a high-kill shelter in Texas on a whim from an SSR volunteer. He was at risk of euthanasia so she brought him home instead. He spent two years living with his foster in Texas, and she treated him like one of her own dogs. Eventually she decided it was time for him to find his forever family and head north to Virginia.  Maxfield has shown signs of dog reactivity so he is currently with our training partner, Sadie's Rules, in Nellysford, VA. Max has had some unfortunate encounters with dogs in the past and has even been attacked previously. Poor Max was even bit while out on a leashed neighborhood walk with his foster in TX prior to coming to VA. A stray came upon them and she was unable to safely remove Max before that stray attacked. This old guy has suffered a lot of trauma in his TX life and we promised him a brighter future here up North! Are you the bright spot in his life? Max prefers to be the center of your world and would do better as the only dog in your home. He does not like when other dogs get in his personal space because of what he has experienced  (and who can blame him?) but he can coexist with other dogs. As a protective measure, when Max is out on the trail at training with numerous other dogs, he often wears a basket muzzle. He needs to know his new owner has his back and will protect him and not put him in dangerous situations. Max was already treated for heartworm disease and is negative. He is allergic to chicken and does really well on the raw diet he is on. His previous foster can share information regarding the holistic protocol and supplements she found successful in keeping him healthy. The finishing touches of his training program are wrapping up and Max is actively looking for his forever home! The  15/10 Foundation  has launched an initiative to encourage the adoptions of German Shepherds and German Shepherd mixes over the age of 5 years. Maxfield has been nominated and approved for adoption fee sponsorship.

Story
Peaches was adopted and had a life as a family member, but sadly was returned after 6 years. We are all sad for her and hoping her forever home will love her for the good girl she can be. Sweet Peaches is affectionate, loves to chill on the couch, enjoys a good car ride, a long walk, and playing with her toys. Peaches adores all sized people, although the littles may not stay upright around 'miss big love'. She is spayed, housebroken, and knows all the basic commands. This girl listens well, she completed her training at Creature Comfort Inn and is currently being fostered by a trainer. She is a strong girl that will need a strong leader, continued structure will be best to keep everyone happiest. Peaches is a beautiful tall German Shepherd, weighting 85 pounds. She prefers to be the only animal in the house and does have a strong prey drive, so small critters wouldn't fair well around this queen. Peaches has EPI (Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency), which means her pancreas doesn't produce enough enzymes to break down the food properly. This is not too costly and easy to manage. Enzyme powder is added to her food at each meal and she needs a B12 supplement. So please don't let EPI scare you! Peaches is a healthy senior girl, looking for her happily-ever-after! Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.  If you are an approved adopter and are interested in this dog, please let your case worker know.

Story
Jack was rescued from south Texas and adopted in April 2020. He was later returned to SSR when the original adopter rehomed him to a family unfamiliar with the German Shepherd breed, not understanding his needs. Jack has been a wonderful and happy healthy boy! He loves all humans, big and small. He's a goofy, playful, obedient good guy. This affectionate fella is up to date on shots, heartworm negative, neutered, and housebroken. Such a big snuggle couch buddy! He can coexist with other dogs, but he is picky about who he lets in his inner circle. So slow introductions with resident dog(s) will need to happen before Jack can be adopted. Cats are a nope. After all, we want to make sure his next home is his forever home! If you have room in your home and heart to give this guy the love he deserves ,please apply today to adopt him.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.  If you are an approved adopter and are interested in this dog, please let your case worker know.

Story
  Nesta was rescued from a high kill shelter in TX. It takes Nesta a while to trust and will take her time to feel safe and settle into a new home environment. Nesta is a "velcro" dog and will follow her person everywhere. She is an affectionate gale, wanting pets as much as she can get. Nesta started training with Sadie's Rules K9 training in February 2024, to further develop the confidence and manners to be the best version of herself. Nesta now has great manners, knows all the basic commands, and does best with a strict routine. She gets along with dogs, but isn't much of a player. She is ok with the kitties too. Nesta was fine with children in her previous foster home, but older children are recommended. This girl is high energy, but enjoys a simple life. Nesta is up to date on vaccinations, heartworm negative, spayed, crate trained, and housebroken. A good girl that is ready to show all she has learned in her new forever home.

Story
Nonie was found as a TX stray with her litter of 7 puppies.  All of her puppies have been adopted.  Nonie is still searching high and low for her forever home.  She has been with her VA foster family since May 2023.  Nonie is wondering why no one wants her.....  This sweet, gentle gal is 2-3 years old, around 65 lbs, and has the best smile ever! She is pretty close to perfect! Seriously. If you want a low-maintenance best friend, this girl is for you. Nonie is crate-trained, potty-trained, spayed, healthy, and heartworm negative! She aims to please and is easily corrected. Nonie is kid-friendly, but maybe more suitable for older children to ensure she does not knock down any little ones!  She is NOT cat-friendly and does not care for small dogs.  Nonie loves playing with her dog friends, going for  walks, water activities, watching (chasing) squirrels, and snuggling with her humans. She is very food-motivated and takes treats very gently. She would be perfectly fine as an only dog or in a home with another pup or two. Nonie is very patient and playful with the 1-year-old resident puppy, and they really enjoy wrestling and chasing each other.  All Nonie needs to be happy is a full belly, a soft bed/couch, a few walks per day, and lots of snuggles. She enjoys being outside and would love a yard, but it's not required. She does struggle with a fear of thunderstorms, can be reactive on the leash, and she is  a sloppy drinker. Hey, no one is perfect. Nonie says: 'Please take a chance on me!!'

Story
Hello my future family! Just checking in to let you know what is going on with me.  I am back with SSR due to no fault of my own or my adopter.  I will need an active family to keep up with my energy.  I have recently shown some fear aggression to other dogs.  Can I live with other dogs?  Absolutely!  And it would be best if I had a family fur friend in my forever home. Please just provide slow introductions and allow me some time to get used to them.  It has taken me 3 days to get re-acquainted with my foster's family dogs.  I do tend to resource guard food and toys when I am in my crate.  Outside of my crate I share everything.  I do whine when I am left alone in my crate.  My fomom is helping me to relax and learn I am safe.  I love all humans - big and small.  I am housebroken, spayed, up to date on vaccinations and heartworm negative.  Oh - and I love rides in the car and sticking my head out the window enjoying the wind in my face. While I am waiting for my forever family, I am working to be the best girl I can be!  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.  If you are an approved adopter and are interested in this dog, please let your case worker know.
