Foster or Adopt a Dog

Adoption isn't about urgency, it's about finding the right match for both the dog and the person welcoming them home. 
 
Fostering isn't about skipping steps, it's about improving the success of the animals in their care.

The dogs featured below are currently available through DBS | Different Breed Solutions Rescue, or our shelter and rescue partners. Our team and volunteers share first-hand experiences so you're getting accurate, real-world insight into each dog's personality, including thoughtful recommendations based on time spent with them. This being said we are experienced handlers, animals can be unpredictable, please never leave dogs out without supervision.

Take your time, read each profile, and reach out if you'd like guidance on responsible adoption or fostering before making a decision. Every responsible adoption or foster placement creates real impact - it's how our "Impact So Far" numbers become more than statistics. When you take the time to do it the right way, you/re changing a life in the most modern-day heroic way.
 
These are only a handful of the dogs we work with, to see more dogs or walkthroughs to request more content on adoptable dogs follow us on social media or shoot us a an email!

 

DBS Rescues Adoptables

These are adoptable dogs our organization has personally saved from being euthanized inside the shelter. All applications, meet & greet, and adoption decisions are handled directly through DBS Rescue. Our role is visibility and honest, firsthand insight shared with the dog's best interest first, to support informed decisions and lasting placements. Please note behavior and personality can shift once a dog moves into a new environment. It's common to see some issues the first few weeks but most dogs blossom into confident, happy companions after being able to decompress with time, routine, and love!
