Ya know.....When you bring work home with you.

I'm just transporting these fuzzy wittle babies. But they're still super cute.

🐾 Meet Chop!
This 1-year-old Boston Terrier mix is as friendly as they come — great with dogs, cats, and every human he meets!

Chop is the kind of dog who just wants to love and be loved. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or adventure time, he’s all in. He’s got the perfect mix of s***k and sweetness and is SO ready to find his forever family.

Let’s get this happy boy out of rescue and into a home where he belongs. 💙

I've got faces for you guys. I may not be doing dog stuff like I had been. But when I'm not saving animal lives. I am still pet sitting or playing with everyone's babies, when I can.

This is the group that took my Malinois foster. Wren. Now Cobra. I highly suggest donating or adopting to/from this awesome rescue. Because they do a lot, and save a Lot of lives. Especially from our shelter. I work hand n hand with them almost weekly.

STIMULATION SAVES LIVES – AND SANITY

At Canine Impact Foundation, we work with dogs from all walks of life—abandoned, neglected, misunderstood. One of the biggest game changers in behavior and mental wellness? STIMULATION.

Just like people, dogs need mental AND physical exercise. Without it, they can become anxious, destructive, or shut down. Enrichment isn’t just a luxury—it’s a necessity.

Here’s how to easily stimulate your dog:
• Sniff Walks (let them lead with their nose!)
• Puzzle Feeders & Kong Toys
• Training Games (place, touch, find it, name that toy)
• Scent Work (hide treats around the house)
• Rotating Toys (variety keeps it interesting)
• Social Outings (new environments = new smells + mental exercise)

Dogs thrive when they have a job to do—even if that job is just working for dinner or learning a new trick.

Many of our rescue and service dogs come alive once they get the stimulation they’ve always needed. It can literally be the difference between a stressed dog and a well-balanced one.

🐻 Teddy is still waiting for his forever home!

Teddy is 2–3 years old, fully potty trained, great with other dogs, and loves every person he meets. He’s the total package — sweet, social, and ready for a family of his own.

🚫 Teddy does have one flaw… he’s on a lifelong mission to chase every cats. Must committ to training with a professional or no cats 🫶🏻🙂

This boy has waited long enough — let’s find him the home he deserves. 💛

PLEASE SHARE!!

Wren

My foster is a 4.5/5 month old 100% Belgian Malinois. She's a wonderful young lady who is now looking to do meet'n' greets for her forever family.

She enjoys the agility course, hiking, learning and snuggling. Definitely loves having her chest scratched. In fact she melts when that happens. She's been around my kids, cats and other dogs.

She is adoptable through OKC Animal Welfare once she is medically ready. That means she will come with all vaccines up to her age, microchipped and spayed.

If you haven't ever had a Belgian. Make sure to do your research. They are high energy, working dogs.

Please contact me if your interested in getting more information. Meet and greets is the only way I am going to be pushing her for adoption at this time. Because, of who she is.

I will tell you. I wouldn't suggest a home with young children. My kids are older. 10 and 14. She does well with them. I say this because shes a big girl. 42 and She gets mouthy most of the time when super excited and over stimulated. It's a Belgian thing. Like most puppies she doesn't have much self control. It is still being worked on. If you don't have time to train/walk/play at least once a day or more per day. She may not be the right match. As she has a HIGH drive.

She is house broken. But I also have a doggie door. She does well in her XL kennel, but I usually leave her out. We are working on leash training. She has a great recall, sits, down, and stay is getting there. But I work on all these things constantly . And use positive reinforcement via verbal praise, yes, treats and toys. She gives high fives, shakes and sits pretty. Learning to carry items, turn on off light switches and to tug ropes to open things she doesn't care much for balls, prefers stuffies, bottles, ropes and sticks. Loves mental enrichment games and toys. She does find things to carry around. Not always the things we give her. I usually trade her, as this can be shaped into picking up items for service type work. No food aggression or resource guarding, and is sometimes stubborn and pushy with other dogs. But when others correct her she listens and responds decently. Kitties. She's interested. But won't chase if they don't run. I've taken her hiking and she does well on the trails.

Anyways, see comments for videos. Please help me get a good home for her. I'd keep her myself, but my house is full and there's others who need what I can give. That's important.
