Say hello to Ember, our newest foster puppy from True North GSD Rescue! 🐾

You may have seen her up on our stories but we're formally introducing this little munchkin. Ember is one of the best puppies we've ever fostered: she's spunky, fluffy, and well-mannered (aside from the usual puppy shenanigans). She absolutely adores everyone she meets and is a wonderful player with all of our pack.

As we're writing this post, her favorite toy is her squeaky little rainbow, her favorite treat everything but vegetables, and her favorite thing to do is (trying) to catch the boys running around the yard.

If you're in the PNW and looking for a lovely, social, perfectly balanced little fluff ball and have previous working dog experience, Ember could be the next member of your pack!

Head over to 's page to fill out an application to adopt 🥳

This is not a rescue spotlight we're excited to make, but we need to. It's a bit of a rant, but stay with us.

Bear was warmly welcomed into True North GSD Rescue this weekend and we were a part of his intake. Bear loves to snuggle, loves to play fetch, and loves when he's told he's a good boy.

All of these amazing qualities do not line up with his deplorable condition. We're going to include some specific details here so just a heads up if you're squeamish.

His ears appear to have been snipped and cut several times up and down the sides. He's so underweight, you can feel his organs. You can literally wrap your fingers around his collar bones and see them poke through the other side. He smells sour, like he's been sleeping in his own urine for months. His fur is falling out in large tufts all throughout his body, showing severely irritated, raw skin underneath.

The worst part is, Bear was an owner surrender. Someone woke up and said "this is okay", and they kept waking up and kept saying that for who knows how long.

There are thousands of cases like Bear. Most of them don't end up in the loving arms of an amazing rescue. Bear will go to a wonderful home and live out his years the way he deserves: well-fed, well-snuggled, and happy.

If this kind of thing gets you as upset as it does us, support True North GSD Rescue in their efforts to help Bear. Share this post and raise awareness for Bear. He needs a lot right now and could use your help.

Today, we pause to honor and express our deepest gratitude to those who have served in the armed forces. Your sacrifices, courage, and dedication have single-handedly protected our freedom here at home.

Recently we became one of the sponsors for Forgotten Dogs 4 Forgotten Vets (www.fd4fv.com), a new nonprofit organization dedicated to pairing honorably discharged veterans with service dogs from shelters and rescues. For many veterans struggling with PTSD, the wait time for a service dog is astronomically long, adding an additional challenge in their journey toward healing.

FD4FV is committed to shortening these wait times to just a few months, while also giving rescue dogs a new purpose and a loving home. We’re honored to support this important initiative from its inception and look forward to contributing to its growth and impact.

To all veterans, from all of us at Bolder K9, thank you for your service.

With all it's beautiful colors and crisp cold air, Autumn brings one terrible game: roulette of leaf or poo. 🐶💩

Our workshop is tucked away between bigleaf maples and grand firs, giving us 360 degree views of wonderful foresty treescapes, and the occasional furry visitor. But we wouldn't trade it for anything, even if we have to play roulette every morning in the fall! 🍁

Fall in love with our leash wraps! 🍂

As the leaves turn and the days get shorter, keeping your dog visible and safe is more important than ever. Our leash wraps are designed to make sure your dog’s needs are seen, even on those early evening strolls.

Each of our handmade leash wraps is reflective, durable, and waterproof. They're also incredibly slim and lightweight, only weighing ~2 oz. each! With several different phrases, you can easily communicate and advocate for your pup without adding any extra bulk.

Embrace sweater weather and pumpkin-flavored everything, knowing your dog’s leash wrap has you covered for all your autumn adventures.

🍁 Available now at bolderk9.com and on Etsy 🍁

November is , so we wanted to share our experience with Theo, our oldest rescue pup who inspired our business and has Idiopathic Epilepsy.

Sir Theobold the Brave was 1.5 years old when he had his first cluster of gran mal seizures, sending him to the emergency room for several days until he was seizure-free. 6 months later, he had his second massive cluster of seizures, sending him to the emergency room once again.

Several more clusters later, he was diagnosed with Idiopathic Epilepsy, which is an epileptic condition with no known cause or remedy. From ages 2 to 3, we watched as Theo had seizures on an almost weekly basis. It was only in the last year that we've been able to reduce his seizure frequency to once every few weeks, thanks primarily to several incredible veterinary teams in our local area.

As a pet parent, there's nothing you can do for your dog when they are having a seizure, other than remove anything from around them that they could hit or knock over. You feel helpless, but still have to maintain a calm composure for when they come out of it or if you need to administer medication. It's incredibly stressful and takes a toll on everyone, including other pets, in your home.

Despite his condition, Theo is the brightest, friendliest, most amazing dog we could have asked for. He brings so much joy to everyone he encounters, and the most joy to us every single day. ❤️

🚨 RESCUE SPOTLIGHT: Enzo from 💕

Enzo is True North GSD Rescue's new adoptable puppy, and he's just too cute not to share. Obviously, we had to send him to his fosters with a Ferrari red leash. 🏎️

Whether he's vroomin' or snoozin', cuddlin' or munchin', Enzo is a true shepherd puppy. He's infectiously happy, incredibly social, and eager to learn - until he plops down for a puppy nap. 💤

We personally got the chance to spend some time with Enzo and he is a gem of a rescue pup. If you're in the Pacific Northwest and are looking for a well-balanced German Shepherd puppy, he's your guy.

Visit 's page or their website to learn more about adopting Enzo. Previous German Shepherd or similar working breed experience will be required!
