Hi, I’m Remi, a sweet 2-year-old girl who’s ready to find my perfect forever home. I’ve been through a bit, so I’m taking my time coming out of my shell, but with encouragement and reassurance, I’m starting to relax and show my true colors.
New things might spook me at first, but I bounce back quickly—I’m tougher than I look! What makes me happiest? Being right by your side! I love stretching out at your feet or curling up next to you for some quiet company. I already know my basic commands, and oh boy, do I get excited about agility equipment—especially if there’s a yummy treat involved.
Out on walks, I might let out a little bark if something catches me off guard, but I settle right down and trot along nicely with other dogs. I’ve met cattle, horses, and cats without any fuss, though I do get curious if something comes right at me. Overall, I’m a curious explorer who’s learning to trust the world. I just need someone patient to help build my confidence—time and kindness are my best friends.
No little kids for me, please; I’d do best with dog-savvy folks 12 and up. I’ve always been a solo act, but I could probably share my space with a chill male dog. If you’re looking for a loyal companion to shower with love and watch blossom, that’s me!
Hi I'm Kensi, a 7-month-old Dobermann pup with a heart full of zoomies. I'm all about puppy energy - excited, always ready to play fetch or tug-of-war, but I haven't quite mastered the art of personal space yet. I might accidentally bowl you over in my enthusiasm.
I'm a smart cookie too—I already know my basic commands like sit, stay, and come (most of the time, anyway). But I'm still growing up, so I need a forever home where you'll keep building on that with some fun training sessions, clear boundaries, and a solid routine.
In my last place, I got a bit bored and turned into a chew monster on stuff I shouldn't have. But keep me busy with adventures, walks, and brain games, and I'll ditch those bad habits.
I'll blossom into the perfect sidekick with a little structure. When it comes to other critters, I'm chill around horses and cows. But cats get my chase instincts fired up, so I'd probably do best in a cat-free zone while I'm still in my giddy phase.
Out on walks, I start off like a rocket, but once I burn off that initial burst, I settle right in and stroll like a pro. I even walked out with my kennel buddy without any fuss, though I couldn't resist trying to start a playdate now and then. Who can blame me?
Overall, I'm a bundle of joy who'll keep you laughing all day long. I've got a teenage whine when I'm in a kennel, and I might plot a sneaky escape or two, but with your love and patience, I'll be the loyal, loving companion you've been dreaming of.
Cpl. Kurt, a #Doberman "Devil Dog" serving with the Marine Corps, became the first war dog casualty in the Pacific. He's pictured here, wounded alongside his Marine partner on Guam, being carried to a jeep ambulance from an aid station during #WWII.
The "Devil Dogs" nickname for the Marine K-9 Corps, including Dobermans like Kurt, originated from a WWI German term for the Marines' ferocity, later becoming a badge of honor for their heroic WWII service in battles like #Guam.
During the 21-day Battle of Guam, 60 war dogs, primarily Dobermans and German Shepherds, saved hundreds of lives; 25 were killed, 20 injured, and Kurt's legacy is honored by a statue at the relocated War Dog Cemetery on the U.S. Naval Station.
