Story
My wife and I adopted our two dogs in Okinawa, Japan. Rocky (German Shepard). He is a very well-behaved house dog. His shots are up to date. Unfortunately, we are moving again and will not be able to take him with us. My son has also grown an allergy to the dogs so that is another reason we will not be able to bring him along with us. We are looking for a family to adopt because he loves kids.

Story
We got Rocky in Okinawa, Japan when we were stationed there. He flew back to the states with us and has been in the family since. We have his purebred paper work and it is also translated into English. Rocky is 5 years old. We are looking for a good home for him that has time for him. My son unfortunately grew an allergy for the dogs and we are being forced with either keeping him outside 80% of the time or rehoming him. We kept him outside for awhile but we just don’t think it’s right to do that to Rocky. He’s very good with kids and other dogs. Although he’s a German Shepard he’s surprising not as energetic as most German Shepards I have seen. But he does love laying around and playing with kids.

Hi, my name is Gretchen and I would love to meet you. I have been at the shelter since Jun 19, 2024. “Play” is my middle name! Fetch, tug-of-war, frisbee – I’ve done my research and I love it all!

Story
Hi, my name is Zeus and I would love to meet you. I have been at the shelter since Aug 05, 2024. I like to think I’m a pretty independent pup, but having a person to share life with is really all I want. I may sometimes think my idea or direction is the better one, and I may sometimes be right, but what’s important is that we get to figure it out together!

Story
Jackson is about 17 months old. he was given to my kids as a bday gift in Texas. We have since relocated to Washington state and was unable to find a new home for Jackson. Myself and kids are unable to care for him at this time given life has gotten busy and we are renting and can no longer afford to have him. Jackson is very playful and loves to run and play catch with the ball. Jackson has some crate training but is very smart and tends to do his own thing. I feel he can be redirected and trained if given to someone who has the time and patience with him. In all just looking for a good home where he will continue to receive love and attention.

Story
Kimchi loves people, kibble, and toys and is very smart and loves to train. Kimchi is 4 months old crate trained, walks nicely on leash, and is well on her way to being potty trained. She gets along with her foster brothers but does have a little bit of resource guarding. This has gotten much better since settling into her foster home and her new family will need to continue to separate her from any other dogs for meals. If you are looking for a sassy sweet shepherd, Kimchi will definitely brighten your day!

Story
Millie is the sweetest girl! Her owner recently passed away and her family was unable to take her in, so we said we would foster her until we find the perfect home. Millie is great on a leash, loves to play with other dogs, is queen of the dog park, and loves to get scratches and kisses. She does well with our to chihuahuas and seems to know some commands. She has great recall and is potty and kennel trained. She’s great in the car and loves a long leisurely sniff session around the neighborhood. She’s also perfectly content chilling on her bed or the couch (if that’s ok with you). She likes to play tug of war and fetch. She is not highly food motivated and would prefer to graze for food throughout the day instead of having a set meal time. She is gentle and sweet, and would make a great addition to a family that has a bigger house than us! 3 dogs in a small house is crazy! Millie will live with us until we find the perfect home for her.
