1. Tiger
#A5536505
Meet
Tiger
, a 7-year-old Pitbull boy who absolutely lives up to his name with a striking brindle coat patterned in soft, muted stripes of cream and light brown! This big, gorgeous chonky meatball doesn't always show his best side in his kennel, where he can be a bit barrier-reactive, but once he's out, it's like meeting a whole new dog. Tiger has been wonderful with both people and other pups, and he's done fabulously in playgroup with his fellow four-legged friends! He has a fun, rough-and-tumble play style and a perfectly balanced medium energy level, so he'd do best with similar-sized dogs who enjoy the same kind of play. More than anything, this handsome boy is a big softie who eagerly seeks out pets and snuggles, with a loose, wiggly booty that lets you know just how happy he is to be loved. Come meet Tiger and discover the sweet, affectionate gentleman waiting outside that kennel!

, a 2-year-old Doberman Pinscher mix boy with a whole lot of personality packed into one handsome package!

Read more about Dickey
Meet Dickey, a handsome 70-pound Weimaraner with a happy personality, a playful spirit, and a whole lot of love to give! Born on May 23, 2025, Dickey is a young, enthusiastic boy who is ready to find a forever family that will appreciate his wonderful energy and zest for life.
Dickey is a happy, playful dog who enjoys having fun and would love to share life's adventures with his favorite people. Whether it's spending time outdoors, enjoying interactive games, or exploring new places, this handsome boy has the potential to make a wonderful companion for someone who enjoys an active lifestyle.
At just over a year old, Dickey is still a young dog with plenty of enthusiasm. He's past the earliest stages of puppyhood but still has lots of growing, learning, and maturing ahead of him.
About the Weimaraner Breed
Weimaraners are known for their intelligence, athleticism, loyalty, affectionate personalities, and high energy levels. Originally developed in Germany as hunting companions, these beautiful dogs were bred for endurance, agility, and working closely with their handlers.
They are sometimes affectionately called "Gray Ghosts" because of their distinctive silver-gray coats and elegant appearance.
As a Weimaraner, Dickey may display several typical breed characteristics:
Energetic and athletic: Weimaraners often enjoy long walks, outdoor adventures, interactive games, and activities that keep them physically engaged.
Intelligent and eager to learn: They generally benefit from consistent training, positive reinforcement, and mental challenges.
Loyal and people-oriented: Many form strong attachments to their families and enjoy being included in daily activities.
Playful and enthusiastic: Their fun-loving personalities can make them entertaining companions.
Sensitive and affectionate: Weimaraners often respond best to gentle guidance, encouragement, and a predictable routine.
Naturally curious: Their hunting background can contribute to strong scent-tracking and chasing instincts.
Because Weimaraners are active sporting dogs, Dickey's ideal family should be prepared to provide daily exercise, mental enrichment, consistent training, and plenty of companionship.
At 70 pounds, Dickey is a substantial dog who will need a family comfortable handling his size and energy level.
He would be especially well suited to an active household that enjoys spending time outdoors and wants a canine companion to share in life's adventures.
Dickey has the happiness, playfulness, and enthusiasm to bring so much joy into the right home. All he needs is a family ready to embrace his wonderful personality!
Training, Adjustment & What to Expect
At approximately 1½ years old, Dickey is a young adult who will continue benefiting from training, structure, and positive experiences as he matures.
Rescue dogs may arrive with basic training at best, so adopters should be prepared to continue working on leash manners, basic obedience, recall, household boundaries, calm greetings, appropriate play, and positive socialization.
Because Dickey is a large, playful dog, establishing good manners will be particularly important.
His future family should focus on teaching him to walk politely on a leash, avoid jumping on people, respond reliably to basic commands, and manage excitement appropriately.
Weimaraners are intelligent dogs that often thrive when they have opportunities to learn and participate in activities with their

Volunteers describe her as smart, loyal, and attentive to her person. After losing her home, Phoenix is looking for a patient, loving adopter who will give her the time and reassurance she needs to blossom.

20. Ellen
A5801782 Ellen
is a beautiful, gentle girl with a soft cream coat and adorable pointy ears. At just 2 years old, this sweet Carolina Dog / German Shepherd mix has already been through a lot, but she hasn't lost her willingness to connect. Volunteers noticed how she leaned in for affection, even resting against their legs while they wrote notes about her. Ellen has a calm, curious nature and was wonderfully tolerant of other dogs during playgroup, preferring to explore peacefully rather than join in the roughhousing. She's a little underweight and has a facial scar, reminders that life hasn't always been easy for her. What Ellen needs now is a gentle hand, a little extra nourishment, and someone who will show her just how good life can be when you're loved.

24. Phoebe Marie
Meet Phoebe Marie
Sweet, Silly, and Always Ready for a Cuddle!
Breed: Shepherd Mix
Gender: Female | Age: 5 Months
DOB: May 12, 2026
Weight: 45 lbs
Good With: Dogs ✔️ | Kids ✔️ | Cats: Unknown
Personality: Sweet | Silly | Affectionate | Cuddly | Playful
Medical: Vaccinations Up to Date | Spay Status: Unknown | Microchip: Not Provided
❤️ Personality & Breed Information
Phoebe Marie is a beautiful 5-month-old Shepherd mix weighing 45 pounds, with a personality that's just as lovable as she is! This sweet and silly girl has a wonderful combination of puppy playfulness and affection, and one of her favorite things is cuddling with her people.
Read more about Phoebe Marie
Phoebe Marie has that adorable puppy charm that makes everyday moments a little more entertaining. She's sweet, goofy, and full of personality, but she also has a softer side that loves closeness and affection. Whether she's enjoying some playtime or curling up for a cuddle, she's happiest when she gets to share those moments with someone she loves.
Shepherd mixes are often known for being intelligent, loyal, affectionate, energetic, and attentive to their families. They frequently enjoy learning new things and participating in activities that challenge both their minds and bodies.
As a Shepherd mix, Phoebe Marie may develop some of these characteristics as she matures. At 45 pounds and only five months old, she is already a substantial puppy and will likely continue growing. Her exact adult size cannot yet be determined.
Her ideal family should be prepared for a potentially large, active dog who will need regular exercise, mental enrichment, continued training, positive socialization, and plenty of companionship.
Most importantly, Phoebe Marie deserves a family who will appreciate both sides of her personality—the silly puppy who makes them laugh and the affectionate girl who wants nothing more than to snuggle up beside them.
Training, Adjustment & What to Expect
At only five months old, Phoebe Marie is still learning about the world. Her future family should be prepared for the normal responsibilities of raising a young puppy, especially one who is already 45 pounds.
Rescue dogs may arrive with basic training at best, so adopters should be ready to continue working on potty training, crate training if desired, leash walking, basic commands, recall, appropriate chewing, calm greetings, household boundaries, and positive socialization.
Because Phoebe Marie is growing into a larger dog, establishing good manners early will be particularly important. Teaching her not to jump on people, pull on the leash, or become overly excited during greetings will help her develop into a well-mannered adult companion.
Shepherd mixes can be intelligent and eager learners, so positive reinforcement, patience, consistency, and short, engaging training sessions will help Phoebe Marie understand what is expected of her.
Her adopter should also understand that puppies require supervision, structure, and time. Accidents, chewing, teething, and occasional mischief are normal parts of puppyhood.
The 3-3-3 Rule
3 Days: Time to decompress and begin feeling safe.
3 Weeks: Time to understand her new household routine.
3 Months: Time to build trust, settle in, and begin feeling truly at home.
These are guidelines rather than deadlines. Every rescue dog adjusts at their own pace, and Phoebe Marie should be given the time she needs to feel comfortable and secure.
Owner Responsibilities & Veterinary Care
Phoebe Marie's vaccinations are up to date, and her spay status has not yet been confirmed.
Because she is only five months old, her adopter should review her medical records with a veterinarian to determine whether she needs additional puppy vaccine boosters, deworming, flea and parasite prevention, microchipping, or other preventive care.
If Phoebe Marie has not yet been spayed, her future family should discuss age-appropriate spaying with a veterinarian, particularly considering her potential a

#A5800790
Meet
Resse,
a 2-year-old Pit Bull boy and an absolute cutie patootie with a rich, warm chocolate coat, splashes of creamy marshmallow, and the most unusual piercing green eyes! This sturdy little chonker is short, stocky, and seemingly built specifically for cuddling, which just happens to be his favorite activity! He wants nothing more than to be glued to your side on the couch or in bed, or curled up at your feet - basically, wherever you are, that’s where Reese wants to be. His easygoing, happy-go-lucky personality makes him a friend to everyone, including other pups; while out with our volunteers, he happily explored, checked out the other dogs, and then always came right back to his person to relax. Reese is the biggest lovebug with an even bigger heart, and some very lucky family is going to get to spend their days soaking up all that love! Will that be you? ❤️
Read more about Resse
- 2 year old brown and white pitbull

#A5800486
Meet
Lucy
, a beautiful 4-year-old German Shepherd girl with classic Shep good looks - a warm dulce de leche coat dusted with deep black-brown along her back and snoot, plus those gorgeous perky ears! She has all the makings of a perfect family dog, especially for a home where she can be the queen of the household, because Lucy loves her people far more than she loves other dogs. She follows close by her favorite humans, always looking for affection and attention, though she does well with calm canine companions too. This mellow, sweet girl was sadly surrendered because her former owner didn’t have “enough” time, but Lucy doesn’t ask for much - just some regular loving and a soft, safe place to lay her head. She was likely living outside 24/7 and has some flystrike damage to her ears, yet through it all she remains gentle and loving. Lucy is ready to trade her hard past for a cozy forever home where she can finally be the cherished queen she was always meant to be! Will that be with you?

Meet
Alpha
, a stunning 6-year-old German Shepherd boy with a jet-black coat from tip to toe, like a velvety shadow, and the warmest soft brown eyes that will absolutely steal your heart! It’s clear Alpha hasn’t always had the kindest life - the fly damage to his ears suggests he may have spent far too much time living outside - but somehow this sweet boy has held onto his joyful spirit. He’s equal parts confident and calm, wonderfully social and playful with both people and other pups, and always eager to solicit affection and attention. Alpha enjoys some rough-and-rowdy play and can be charmingly vocal with his canine friends, happily giving them a hearty hello! He’s also a well-trained gentleman who walks nicely on leash, seems potty trained, knows sit and other tricks for treats, and takes his goodies ever so gently - no gobbling here! ❤️ Alpha has so much love to give and is ready for a family who will finally show him just how wonderful life can be.

Adopting a large dog in Glendale
Large dogs need room to stretch out and plenty of exercise: at least one good walk a day, and a secure yard is a bonus. Check your lease too, as some landlords limit the size or breed of dog.
Start training from day one. A big dog who walks nicely on a leash and doesn't jump up is a pleasure to live with, and many rescues can recommend a local trainer.
