Update- I was just informed that the 8/4/25 transport if full. Looking for other options for saving this guy.

Although he was terrified and growling when he was picked up by animal control..... by the time they got him to the shelter he melting in everyone's arms, soliciting any love he could get. A true "Mastiffian Lovehound." Not much history known about him but he appears to do good with people and dogs. We can get him on the transport from CA to Boise ID that leaves on 8/5/25 if we can secure an Adopter or Foster by 8/2/25. Complete our application https://form.jotform.com/250684962996174

We've already posted Martha...with very little response. She is a very sweet and gentle gray Cane Corso that is 4-5 yo. Good like med-lrg dogs, small dogs just take a little time. She is scheduled to be euthanized. We can save this poor girl and get her on a transport that leaves CA to Boise ID on 8/4/25 if we can secure an Adopter or Foster. This girl deserves a chance at life and know what it's like to be part of a loving family. Complete our application https://form.jotform.com/250684962996174 Call or text with questions. Commitment needed by 8/2/25.

All the stars lined up yesterday and Rain gor the miracle she so deserved! She was adopted by a wonderful couple from Twin Falls and they are committed to continuing her follow-up care. We can't thank them, and Idaho Humane Society medical care team enough. "Rain," which means "new beginning" finally has a new start at life that will be filled love from this day forward. Also be thank you to Teri Swena who took the time and effort to make sure Rain got to our Rescue back in May so we could arrange all her medical care.

Our beautiful Rain, a female 2yo Bullmastiff, is needing someone very special, foster or adopter, to care for her while she heals. She was finally released from the vet after 3 mos and allowed to go to a foster while she heals. They need to live in Boise, or close by as she needs to go back to the Vet every 5 days for bandage/cast changes for est another 6 weeks. She is still on a lot of medications and pretty doped up to keep her calm....which of course is making her a lil grumpy with other animals and sleepy. She needs a calm environment and someone who is home during the healing process. Best if only dog for now. She has done great with other dogs, but is not currently tolerent while in pain. Hoping someone local can assist. This girl was went thru a lot and deserves love and the ability to heal in a home environment vs vet kennel.
We are taking her in for bandage changes this morning and she can leave after 4 pm if we can find someone to foster. Please call or text 2089.861.3880. Due to the limited time I won't e able to monitor FB, so please call or text if you can assist.

Meet Martha. We are also frantically trying to save her from being euthanized. We believe she is 4-5 yo. She does great with like-sized dogs and cats. In fact she runs away from cats. ha. She loves people and just wants to be a part of what-ever your doing. Her notes say she given up because she doesn't like to be leashed when she goes outside to potty and that she chewed up some cables. We can get her on the Aug 4 2025 transport from CA to Boise ID.
Hoping someone will give this girl the chance she deserves!

Rex is past his euthanasia deadline, so I took him outside for what may be the last time 💔
✅Please see trainer eval on the last slide!
Rex has been locked in a section of the shelter that isn’t publicly accessible because he started his stay as VERY reactive in his kennel. HOWEVER, today when I went to take him out, he didn’t pretend to be big and scary. He took treats nicely and allowed himself to be leashed with very minimal effort. Immediately when we got to the yard, he had big zoomies and was very excited to finally be outside. He was all loose-body and tail wags.
Rex is also VERY excited about treats, though he does take them gently (and catches them!). He knows how to sit, and I bet he knows other commands as well though he is likely rusty. When he wasn’t getting treats, Rex was all about the love. He climbed onto my lap several times for attention and has no hesitation about squishing his face into yours to kiss you. I am covered in slobber (who needs showers??). He allows (understatement) me to pet him all over and is quite enthusiastic about it. We also discovered Rex’s love for the hose (see video) 🤣 He loves to chomp the water and get his whole face blasted, which cleaned the goopies from his eyes!
In Rex’s trainer evaluation, he tested well with dogs but was very forward and rude, as many bullies are. Today, he was very focused on a cat in the other yard and tried to chase it along the fence when it moved, so I recommend no cats for him.
I do not think that as a whole Rex is a difficult dog. He will need a strong handler as he is very strong, and he will need slow intros with dogs. My only large concern after spending time with him today is that he has a bit of stranger danger through the fence, seen when a staff member left and came back. He jumped at the fence and barked and was relatively unsettled and nervous about her when she came back. It was remedied with a treat pretty easily, but he may not do well being bombarded with new people surprising him in his home. Please be prepared for him to need to warm up to strangers, especially in his home.
Rex is a very deserving boy— he deserves a second chance with a bully breed experienced family ready to shower him with love! He has no time left so if you can, please consider him 😭💔

Nikko has been adopted!

BAM! Check out Nikko! He is gorgeous!
Here is what the shelter staff say about him-
Nikko is the definition of a gentle giant. In the kennel, Nikko tends to shut down (no aggression, just low energy), but as soon as he sees a leash, he perks up and is eager to go outside. He enjoys soaking up the sun, getting pets, and spending time with his people. While he’s not especially food- or toy-motivated, he lights up around humans and loves affection. He knows “sit” and is happy to do so, especially if it means he’s going to get his head scratched. He also did great when meeting a friendly 45-pound neutered pittie. They played well together, and despite the other dog jumping on his face to play, Nikko remained calm, tolerant, and playful.
They also sent a video of him in the play yard I can forward if requested.
He is 4 yo, neutered, UTD on shots. and best of all the shelter is providing his transport to Boise!

Tribute to MOOSE.

I know that you must miss me,
By the tears rolling down your face.
But believe me when I tell you that,
I’m in a very good place.

There are meadows here to run in,
And plenty of rabbits to chase.
There are other dogs to play with,
To frolic with and race.

So please don’t worry about me,
My spirit feels light as can be.
There’s no more pain to plague me,
I’m young again and free.

And I’ll be watching over you still,
of that you can be sure.
I’m your canine guardian angel,
And my love for you remains pure.

Note: Moose, who was originally named Zues, was the first dog our Rescued placed. He really hit the jackpot when he was adopted by the Thurman's. Our thoughts are prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time, as losing a dog is hard, and losing your best friend is even harder.
It's impossible to explain the bond these beautiful gentle giants create with their family's in such a short amount of time. Moose was so fortunate to get the opportunity to be "your Dog" and vice versa.
