Sage

January 24, 2025

Hi! I’m Sage! I’m a 2 year old labrador retriever Shelter to Soldier team adopted from Labs & More under the generous Red Star Sponsorship of Logomark!

Sage is a bright, energetic gal with a big heart and an even bigger love for life. Sage came up through our service dog training pathway, where she quickly showed off her natural intelligence, impeccable manners, and eagerness to learn. While a recent arthritis diagnosis means a career in service work isn’t in the cards, it hasn’t dimmed her spirit one bit. She’s simply found a new calling: bringing comfort and joy as an emotional support animal.

She will thrive in a home that channels her lab enthusiasm with gentle, low-impact activity and plenty of mental stimulation. She loves to work and learn, so short training sessions and calm enrichment will keep her happy without overexerting her joints. She’s a true Labrador at heart! Loyal, loving, and ready to be your very best friend.

Hi! I’m Jules, a 4 year old Shepherd Mix the Shelter to Soldier team adopted from the Bonsall Animal Shelter under the generous Red Star Sponsorship of the Tea3 Foundation.

I’m full of energy and ready to keep you on your toes! If you’re looking for an adventure buddy, look no further—I love to run, play, and explore every inch of the world around me. I’ve got tons of enthusiasm and a heart full of love, and once I bond with you, I’m yours—I won’t be going anywhere. You’ll have a loyal best friend for life!

While I’m an absolute blast to be around, I’d do best as the only dog in the home. I like to keep all the attention to myself and I promise, I’m more than enough to fill your heart! Whether we’re out on a long walk or snuggling up after a day of fun, I’ll always be by your side, eager to share every moment with you.

Hi! I’m Shelton! I’m a 5-year-old yellow Labrador Retriever the Shelter to Soldier team adopted from Labs & More under the generous Red Star Sponsorship of the Cox Foundation.

I may have aged out of the service dog program (the cutoff is three years old), but don’t let that fool you—I’ve already completed my training and know all of my task cues.

While I won’t be placed as a formal service dog, I’m still more than ready to be a steady, reliable companion. My training helps me stay calm, attentive, and adaptable in day-to-day life, and I truly thrive when I’m able to support my person emotionally and be by their side.

I’m looking for someone who wants a deeply connected, well-trained partner—someone who values consistency, companionship, and a dog who already understands how to show up when it matters.

Hi! I’m Sunshine a 5 year old Pitbull Mix the Shelter to Soldier team adopted from the Carlsbad Animal Shelter under the generous Red Star Sponsorship of Boeing.

I’m an active, playful boy who loves to run, explore, and have fun. I’m also super sharp and quick to learn, which made me an excellent candidate for training as an Emotional Support Animal (ESA). I’ve been specially trained to support a member of the military or a veteran who needs a loyal, loving companion.

I’m a big guy with a huge heart and a lot of love to give. I’m great with other dogs and I absolutely adore snuggling up for some cozy cuddles. I can’t wait to meet my forever person, and I’m ready to bring comfort, joy, and companionship to their life!
