ting every day for our cherished shepherds. Please vote daily from each device until August 15th at votesacramento. Look for us in the Service Category under Animal Nonprofits. Thank you for being our heroes! Say hello to our new 3-month-old pups! Durbuy and Leuven just arrived in our care and headed to their foster homes via a ride with the volunteer pilots from Pilots and Paws. Their littermate Waterloo just needed a car ride for his foster home. Durbuy, who has earned the nickname Wrigley in his foster home, is the tan pup with those huge ears to grow into. A happy, exuberant puppy who adores treats, he's thrilled to earn them. A smart boy, he's already knows how to sit, down, with me and watch me. Potty and crate trained, he sometimes needs a quick potty break once a night. He loves other dogs, climbing on agility gear, and exploring the yard. Wrigley is wiggly and fun-loving. He's also learning to settle in his pen with minor cries, shifting easily to playing with his toys. Born to a lovely Mal mama who has already been adopted, we suspect he's a Mal/GSD mix. Although Wrigley was a bit shyer than Leuven aka Louie in public settings originally and preferred to be carried through the airport for his plane ride to his foster home. But on an outing with his foster family after settling in, he's been a rockstar. He's greeted dogs happily, is very friendly with people and dogs. And he completely ignores bikes, strollers that go by and even checked out some boats in the marina. After his excursions, Wrigley easily chills in the dog seat attached by a dog seat belt. He's a snuggle pro and working on learning the concept of fetch this week. Wrigley's living with one of our alum shepherds and a chihuahua mix ( both females) until he's adopted. These boys were born in the care of Foster & Paws, a rescue that focuses on dogs who end up in shelters while pregnant. Since their focus is not breed-specific to shepherd mixes, we agreed to bring the pups on board with our group. Have you checked out our YouTube channel? We would greatly appreciate your support by subscribing, liking, and commenting on the videos we share of our adoptable shepherds in action. You can also follow us on Instagram, Facebook, and our newest Threads account, where we post plenty of news and updates about our shepherds. As a foster-based rescue, ShepHeroes is always in need of fosters. There are many shepherds in our local shelters who require our help for a fresh start. Would you be willing to open your home and share part of your life to help these dogs find new families? You provide the love, and we will provide everything else! Saying "yes" today truly saves a life. Complete this .shepheroes/foster-form, and we will be in touch as soon as possible. We appreciate your consideration.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
