Goldendale Shepherd Sanctuary

We are delighted to welcome Ziva, this sweet and playful girl, to our Sanctuary this week. Welcome Ziva! Due to the high volume of surrender requests we receive whenever we post on Facebook, we are sometimes reluctant to share updates. Please note that we are currently operating at full capacity and are not adding new names to our waiting list at this time. Thank you for your understanding 🥰

Adoption pending

We are still trying to find a home for Bandit the 12 month old Belgian Malinois. If you aren't looking for an awesome dog at the moment PLEASE SHARE THIS POST to help us find someone that is.
I'm having trouble posting so I'm so going to keep this short before I lose the post again. I have other posts on our page with more info.
Bandit gets along great with other dogs. We hope to find him the kind of home where he gets maximum attention and time with his handler. Breed experience is a plus but not a requirement.
People who adopt from our sanctuary get special pricing on ALL services from our sanctuaries fund raising businesses Elyse's Doggy Daycare, Boarding, Training and Grooming.
Serious inquiries only please. There is a modest rehoming fee to help us cover a portion of our expenses.
