Meet your future "Shadow"! The kind of dog who looks like she’s been guarding hearts and homesteads for centuries.

She’s large, bold, and courageously calm, a loyal guardian with an instinct to protect and a presence that says everything is under control. Most of the time she’s quiet and watchful, content to observe the world with wise, knowing eyes—until something doesn’t belong. Then comes one clear alarm bark, confident and purposeful, just enough to put things back in line.

An old soul at heart, she’s not one for frivolous toys or constant fuss. Instead, she thrives on outdoor adventures, steady companionship, and meaningful purpose. She’s obedient, easy to get along with, deeply devoted, and happiest when she’s close enough to keep an eye on her people.

Strong but gentle, serious but loving, she’s the kind of dog who doesn’t just guard a home—she becomes part of its foundation.

Adoption of a pair!
The brothers, Thanos and Sterling report.

Hello Kyla,
Thank you for your email.

"Boys are doing wonderfully. We adore them and they have adjusted very well to our family.

They are very friendly, loving, and super patient with kids of all ages. There is definitely some trauma and anxiety that they came with (fear and great resistance to getting into a vehicle is one of them, as well as meeting people when it gets dark), but we are hoping that they will overcome that with time.

They are wonderful dogs and we are so glad we adopted both of them together. Great fit for our family and they are wonderful companions for each other.

Thanks again!

I am including couple of pictures so you can see how they look now."

"Churro", adoption update alert!

He is doing amazing.
It is taking him a bit to get used to the men in the family but he is absolutely doing so much better then he did when he first got here.

We have been out in the car to th dog park a few times and to get a pup cup from Dairy Queen ... which he loves. He is getting used to the car a bit more as well. He isn't panting as hard when we travel with him.
He and Sammy are best buds and protect eachother on their walks. The don't leave eachothers sides very often.

I will attach some pics of them as well.
All in all... he is home 🥰
