Adopted! New Brunsfelds, TX - 5-month-old Nikko is a very lucky puppy. He was rescued by a caring woman at 2 months of age. An abandoned stray, he was bloated with worms and dying from malnutrition. She nursed him back to health with a holistic approach and he is a healthy, happy puppy now... and striking! Nikko is German Shepherd/Husky, and has stunning blue eyes. He is up to date on shots. His Foster Mom cannot keep him any longer and now Nikko is ready to go to a forever loving home. Nikko would be best with someone that can spend time training this smart pup, as he will turn out to be a wonderful companion. Nikko is playful and affectionate and ready for his forever home! If you are interested in adopting Nikko, please contact Pamela at (775) 833-2066 or PamelaJoWolflady@yahoo.com for an adoption application.

 

Yerrington, NV/Lake Tahoe area -Two beautiful "purebred" Native American Indian Dogs were dropped off at a shelter in January by their owner. They are well behaved and human friendly, and in good health. Dakota is a 5-yr-old spayed female, about 82 lbs, in good health, and very sociable. She is good with other dogs and likes to Sit for treats. She has no separation anxiety [a little at first while settling in], is very calm and affectionate. Chocktaw - a neutered male - is also 5 yrs old, larger and about 96 lbs. Both are friendly with humans. He gets a little excited when meeting new dogs, but has not shown any aggression toward them. He pulls on leash and so will need a strong and experienced handler as Chocktaw is a big strong boy, but he is presently working with a trainer and doing very good! Secure containment required with 6' fencing, and a home with lots of good daily exercise is just what these two beauties need.

Dakota Adopted!

Both have been working with their own professional trainer and they are doing really great, so continued dog classes are recommended. They are ready for adoption! Please contact Pamela Jo at 775-833-2066 PamelaJoWolflady@yahoo.com 

 

Adopted! - Lake Tahoe, NV - Orbit is a beautiful pup born May 1, 2011, who looks to be mostly White German Shepherd (not a purebred, he's cream colored). He is almost 7 months old now. When Orbit had gotten attacked by dogs as a puppy at 10 weeks old, his homeless owner turned him in to the shelter because he couldn't afford to pay for medical expenses (pup had severe bites on his face that were badly infected). Orbit is in good health now, completely healed. He's UTD on shots and dewormed. He must have been attacked numerous times as he was terribly afraid of other dogs. His Foster Mom is spending time rehabilitating and training Orbit and he is doing great. At 7 months old, he is a very big boy, but still a little uncertain with new dogs. He hikes off leash, but if he sees a strange dog down the trail, he will bolt. Once he meets the dogs, he loves to play, but more training is needed to help him overcome his fears so that an accident doesn't happen. Orbit knows some commands (Sit, Stay, Come, Wait, Leave It) - and he is housetrained. Orbit is very smart and well behaved if he is given adequate exercise and continued training. He needs a strong handler as he has a tendancy to want his own way. Best with someone who can spend a lot of time with him to continue his training, and who has a calm, friendly canine companion for Orbit to learn from. Orbit needs an active lifestyle to tire him out! Please contact Pamela Jo at (775) 833-2066 PamelaJoWolflady@yahoo.com .

         

  

 

 

  

Adopted! Frazier Mountain, CA - This is handsome Ziggy, a very submissive and beautiful Malamute/Husky pup, about 9 months old. He is brother to Bruce [below]. He is a bit mouthy, and extremely fearful of almost everything unusual. He will need an experienced and patient handler. He is known to be a bit of a digger, more of a hobby than an occupation. Ziggy will need good, secure escape-proof fencing. Ziggy is actually very gentle with young children but becomes mouthy and nippy when excited, so we don't really recommend a home with children. High prey drive with small animals, he would do best with an experienced, gentle and patient handler who can spend a lot of time with him. A work-at-home owner with good canine experience would be best for this shy boy. Escape-proof containment required. Ziggy is located in Frazier Mountain, CA. Please contact Matthew at wolf@lockwoodarc.org 

 

 

 

     

Adopted! Frazier Mountain, CA - Bruce is the beautiful Malamute/Husky brother of Ziggy [above]. He is 9 months old and will be neutered before adoption. He is not fully leash trained yet and needs some housetraining. Bruce is a bit fearful and very shy, but no food aggression. He loves to chase young children, so will not be adopted to families with small children. He's a very sweet boy and needs a person that is around alot. A work-at-home owner with good canine experience would be best for this shy boy. Escape-proof containment required. Wolfdog experience even better! Both Bruce and Ziggy are located in Frazier Mountain, CA. Please contact Matthew at wolf@lockwoodarc.org 

 

 

 

Owner has not responded and we don't know if these girls will wind up at a shelter.  Shadow and Brandy are two sweet girls that need a Foster or permanent home RIGHT AWAY! Their owner lost their home and they will be going to the shelter within days if they don't find placement. Shadow is the Black and Tan Shepherd. She is 6 years old. Brandy is lighter in color, mixed with Husky, and is 10 years old. Both girls are spayed, and current on vaccinations. They low-content wolfgirls, and are fine with small dogs, but a little dominant with large dogs - nothing that an experienced dog person couldn't handle. Brandy and Shadow walk very nice on leashes and do not pull at all. They are housetrained and do not try to escape. They will be separated if it means we can save their lives.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Jasper

 

Adopted! Poway, CA (near San Diego) Jasper is a beautiful 3-year-old neutered male Malamute/GSD [German Shepherd Dog]. At 130 lbs. he is a big boy and would do best with a large, submissive canine companion, or as an only dog. He plays rough, and doesn't like to be challenged by dominant dogs. He is up to date on vaccinations and in good health. Jasper was an owner-surrender by a man who lost his home and job. He is in foster, but needs a permanent home as soon as possible. He did not have much training so Foster Mom has been working with him and he's responding very well. Jasper needs a strong and experienced handler who is around alot to spend quality training time with him and give him daily exercise. We request that the new adopter take him to doggy classes, as he is very smart and will do well. He will not be adopted into a household with small children, small dogs, or other male canines as he plays rough and can be aggressive with other males if they are dominant or challenge him. Classes will help to desensitize him and make him more sociable with other males. He likes to explore and is learning to come in, lie down and behave. He is housetrained. Outside there is slight digging but he's content to stay in a fenced yard. Jasper will sit, lie down, walk on leash. He loves his food and will steal from others so he should always be fed separately from other animals. He is very serious about his food but will sit for his dinner. Jasper loves to run so must be leashed at all times, but would be a great jogging companion. He has improved tremendously on leash but still needs to be reminded to settle down if he wants to investigate something. He loves attention, belly rubs, and to be loved on. Jasper enjoys being brushed. Someone who is home alot, a strong handler, and has experience with large northern breeds would be great for this boy. He is a real sweetheart, very affectionate, and in the right hands will make a wonderful companion. Please contact Pamela Jo at (775) 833-2066 or PamelaJoWolflady@yahoo.com

Adopted!  Wyla - So. California -Wyla was pulled from the Devore Shelter just hours before she was scheduled to be euthanized after waiting the mandatory five days for someone to claim her (she was a stray). She's about a year old, and one of the happiest dogs we've ever met, full of joy, and always doing things to make us smile. She loves people and children. She wants to please, and is a quick learner. We took her to a private trainer for two weeks for the basics. She is spayed, microchipped, and current on all shots. She loves her toys, and entertains herself by lying on her back while holding one of her babies in the air. She's very clean, and doesn't have a lot of the typical puppy habits like chewing on furniture. She knows the word "no" and usually listens the first time. She seems fine with most dogs on neutral territory and out on hikes, but we think it would be best for her to be in a home without other dogs as she likes to be the queen of the house! She is extremely urgent as her Foster home cannot keep her any longer and she is now being boarded again. It is expensive and very confusing for poor Wyla. Please help this sweet girl. Contact Jim and Keri LaMar  (951) 737-4009; (949) 525-3553 Keri cell   (949) 294-4993 Jim cell

Adopted! Livermore, CA - Wolfie. This handsome young boy is only 1-1/2 yrs old, neutered and sweet-natured. His unsuspecting owner bought him from a breeder with the intentions of giving him a loving home, only to find out he is too energetic for them and quite a handful. Wolfie is mostly Malamute/Husky with one blue eye. He's friendly and plays well with large dogs, but is too rough with smaller dogs. He will not be adopted to a home with cats either. He walks beautifully on leash, and is housetrained. This pup is not ready to be left home [indoors] alone unattended as he will still chew, but he is fine when you are around to correct him gently. If left in the yard (6' fencing OK) he is great if he has another canine companion. He digs for fun, not for escape, and can jump a 5' fence easily when playing, so 6' fencing is required for this boy. We also recommend a dig guard. He will Sit and Lie Down on command, and loves fetching the ball. He is submissive with other dominant dogs since he is still a pup, and would also be good if he had a young, playful large canine companion. He is very shy with men. Wolfie is best with grown kids as he will get excited when playing with little ones and gets nippy. He is a little mouthy and needs some training with this. Wolfie howls when left alone so best with a human that works at home or can take with. He does not like to be crated. He needs a well-balanced real-meat diet, and some training with a little food guarding. He is very tall, and towers over other large dogs. This beautiful pup would be best with someone with wolfdog experience, a gentle but dominant handler, and someone with a lot of time to help him blossom into the great companion that he can be.

   
Adopted! Reno, NV - Sequoia is a magnificent, sweet, 8 y/o neutered Malamute/Husky boy who is losing his home. His owners have divorced and neither can keep him. Time is of the essence as he may wind up going to the shelter, and very soon! Sequoia is housetrained, loves kids, other dogs (even the little ones), and likes to go for hikes. He is well behaved both in and outdoors. Sequoia does like to dig, so needs an escape-proof enclosure. He would be best with someone around a lot, retired, or can take to work as he just loves being with people. He is a big boy, about 100 lbs. Sequoia needs a permanent home as soon as possible - we don't want him to wind up at a shelter!
