KYRA
Kyra is a Belgian Malinois German Shepherd mix we fostered from the San Martin Animal Shelter. Founder Robert Yurosko actually did a 5 week board and train with Kyra about a year ago.

She found her forever home with a man who will give her lots of attention and continue her training.

Stella is a young German shepherd we fostered from the San Martin Animal Shelter. We believe she is about 2 years old, she is super smart and really sweet, she has really come out of her shell since she's been here. We have been working on her obedience, she's a super smart dog and is learning really fast, she is a pro at basic obedience and is currently in her new home where she is loved and well cared for by experienced German shepherd owners.
DIAMOND
Diamond was given to the rescue based on extenuating circumstances. We trained her during the time she was with us and took her to train in places like home Depot and Bass Pro Shop. We also used her in our Special Needs Program and letting volunteers handle her in our obedience class. We were able to polish her obedience and tune her up before she found her home.
SNICKERS

He is now living his best life with experienced German shepherd owners and will have a loving family for the rest of his life.
THOR
Thor was the first dog we fostered and our first success story.

We also put hours of training into him and will continue to work on his training with his new owners.
REGAN
Regan is another German shepherd mix we fostered; he is very energetic and has lots of energy. He was going to be euthanized just because he was at a shelter for too long.

SHASTA
Shasta is a Samoyed that a couple of regulars who come to our dog training event found running in the streets of South San Jose. We fostered him after he was brought to the shelter, gave him a bath and have started working on his obedience training. He is very smart, very energetic, and very sweet. He’s a very vocal dog that needs a bit of work but otherwise is a very sweet and loving dog. He has been adopted by a Samoyed rescue and is currently with his new foster owner. She has now since adopted him and has been continuing to work on his training

He has Cherry eye in both of his eyes, we have taken him to a specialist to get it looked at, we have medicine to help but he does need surgery to fix it, we are currently working to get donations to help cover his surgery cost. Alex is pretty easy going; he doesn't really pull on his leash and is super sweet once he gets to know you. Alexander is now in his new home and will continue doing his training with his new family.
