Today we are sharing the loss of one of Saving Great Animals originals-Koji.

Adopted by Sherri and Kelly, sight unseen as a pup from Taiwan (he was at risk of the meat trade).

He was nearly cradle to grave with one family, our daily dream for each dog we rescue.

They learned his personality and built a beautiful life that fit him. We are incredibly grateful to them!

From Sherri: “Koji Moto. 10/14/2010 - 1/5/2025 Rest in peace, little bub.”

Koji lived a long life and it was sooo good. Rest easy angel.

Precious Pebbles is here! This sweet little one is 9 years young and 8 lbs and so sweet.

She’s a bit scared as she was found as a stray in Yakima and probably is wondering where her people are. We are sooo glad she is ours now with a promise of a loving future.

She will be available for adoption soon so if you want a pal to hang with you, this gem is it!

So far, so good! We will know soon whether Chap’s trial adoption will become a yes!

“Just dropped this kiddo (Chap) off for his 2nd trial adoption ♥️ this one felt like a forever-home match. He was our first SGA foster dog and we ended up having him for almost 3 months! We will always remember his snuggles and kisses! He's going to make a great best friend for his new mommy 🖤🐾”

Thank you Sarah Law Hannan and family for fostering him!!

Happy one-year Gotcha Day for this one-eyed wonder! She is living the best life!

From her mama Jenna Van Valen:
“Awww. One year ago today we made it official - and Bambi became our beloved, dorky, friendly to everyone, silliest, snuggliest, most ridiculous, Kona!

Kona is a dork and we could not love her more. Even the vet loves her - and couldn’t believe a chihuahua has problem-free knees and great teeth. She howls sometimes. She has never met anyone, human or animal, that she isn’t excited to get to know. She is a pleasure to live with and we cannot thank SGA enough. ❤️”

We appreciate such a loving family!

Have you ever considered fostering? It’s endlessly rewarding. Here is from ericaberry2001 Erica Kiesler on all of her little lives from 2024. Any repeat pics are due to layout.

We also can’t rescue a dog unless it has a foster to go to, so the saying is true to every letter!

“My year of fostering for 🥰🥰

Not only am I lucky enough to be able to do this, but I’ve made so many new friends along the way and get to keep up with how they’re doing in their new lives!”

Fosters and volunteers are the absolute foundation of Saving Great Animals - Dog Rescue as we want dogs to live in real homes and get comfortable and then happily adopted. We are not a cage-driven rescue.

Greater Puget Sound area. Please share.

Jax, 1.5 years old needs a foster. Yep! He’s as cute in real life, too!

This little playful one is up for any kind of fun activity and especially if it’s with you!

He likes to play with other dogs, and will do well with guidance and proper introduction.

This handsome boy has a loving and fun personality and gets along with everyone he meets. Jax looks like a mix of chihuahua and pomeranian, charming with soft fluff around his ears.

He currently uses a belly band to reduce his marking and it’s super easy to use. A proven method til he gets settled into your home! He didn’t have the best start in life and when he knows he is in a safe place he will calm a bit.

He is a smart, active dog, and providing him a fair amount of exercise and mental stimulation is essential. He then will plop up beside you on the couch and snooze.

PLEASE contact [email protected] if you can step up for this little boy!

Little Slim, SGA alum, has the best life with his mom, Beth Dexter, and dad!

They’re big hikers and this energy bundle wants to go, go, go! He gets excellent exercise, a thousands views, and a billion smells!

From nothing to this life is why we rescue!

How adorable is Tucker in his Santa elf hat?!? While he had an excellent Christmas with his foster family, what he really wants is a forever family ❤️ We think 2025 will be his year, don’t you all agree?!?

If you can share this post we would be most grateful- it takes a village to get dogs adopted 🥰 Tucker is about 8 yrs old and 85 lbs. Check out his full profile on our website savinggreatanimals.org under Available Dogs to see if he could be the right fit for your family!
