Duke is working on building confidence, learning good manners and becoming a well-trained citizen!!

He’s a 1 year old male German Shepherd with a friendly, easygoing personality. He does have a sensitive soul and would much rather be your buddy than run the world! Follow along as we prepare him to be TRAINED and adoptable on Halloween at the Wackerli Subaru Trunk-or-Treat! 🎃🐾

Okay, this is definitely not my usual-looking lineup. 😂 I’ve got a Yorkie, a Lab-looking dog and a poodle-looking dog.

But that’s the point!!

I wanted three easygoing, family-type dogs so I can show you their entire journey!! From shelter or surrender to trained, evaluated and ready for the right homes.

The Yorkie (MALE) spent five weeks in a shelter. The Lab mix (MALE) was surrendered. The poodle (FEMALE) previously went through a shelter and was later surrendered for lack of training!!

They’ll each receive an Embark DNA test, training and a full evaluation. By the time they’re available at Wackerli Subaru’s Halloween Trunk-or-Treat, I’ll know them inside and out.

Now they need three THEMED names, and matching costume ideas. (They all don’t have to go together but their name HAS to align with a costume theme).

Facebook Land, this part is up to you. GO. 🎃

Huge thank you to Pawtorc for taking care of us yesterday! We picked up 16 bags of food for the rescue dogs. ❤️

Good nutrition matters, especially with the dogs we ask so much of, and it means a lot to support someone local who genuinely cares about what goes into your dog.

Thank you, Jeff and Pawtorc! We appreciate you!

🚫 CLOSED FOR INTAKES 🚫

Effective immediately, Elevated K9 Working Dog Rescue will be closed for new intakes through August and September, or until further notice.

The last several months have taken everything I have. Between the emotional weight of rescue and trying to be everything to everyone, I’ve realized I need to step back, recharge, and put my family and personal dogs first for a while.

My phone rings from early mornings to late nights. Weekdays, weekends, holidays…it doesn’t really stop. Rescue has slowly become something that’s EXPECTED to be available 24/7, and the reality is, that’s just not sustainable. I need to create some boundaries before I have nothing left to give.

My focus now is on the dogs already here. They deserve continued training, quality time, and finding the right homes, not me spreading myself even thinner.

That said, closing intakes doesn’t mean the bills stop. Every dog here still needs food, vet care, training, fuel, equipment, and a roof over their head. Elevated K9 Working Dog Rescue is 100% privately funded. There are no government grants, no city funding, and no guaranteed income. This rescue exists because people choose to support it.

If you’d like to help us continue giving these dogs the life they deserve, donations, dog food, sponsorships, and shares of our available dogs are always appreciated.

For now, you’ll probably see a lot more training updates. That’s exactly where my energy needs to be!

Thank you for understanding and your continued support!

I really need to get better about posting adoption updates, because moments like this deserve to be shared.

Wallace found his family. ❤️

They met him last weekend while they were here training, but they weren’t quite ready. Today they came back, Wallace saw them, and it was like he knew. He remembered them immediately and absolutely lit up. He got to meet their male dog, did great, and from that point on, I think everyone knew this was meant to be.

Some adoptions are bittersweet. This one just makes me smile.

Wallace reminds me so much of Bear. He’s the kind of dog that doesn’t just need a home, he needs a family that understands him and wants him to be part of everything they do. I truly believe that’s exactly what he found.

I swear he knew today was his day. The pictures say it all.

Happy life, Wallace. You found your people… and I think they found exactly what they were looking for too. ❤️
