My story

Meet Alani, a five year old German Shepherd mix weighing 57 pounds. Alani has spent her life being a mama—she was found with five other dogs, some likely her own pups—and it’s clear she’s given everything she had to her little ones. Now, it’s finally her turn to be cared for. She may have been bred multiple times in the past, but those days are behind her. Alani is ready to retire from motherhood and step into a life filled with comfort, kindness, and love. One of her eyes has an old injury or deformity, but it doesn’t seem to slow her down or dim her gentle spirit.Alani is a joyful burst of energy wrapped in fur! This outgoing, friendly girl jumps into every situation with all four paws and a huge dose of enthusiasm. She’s treat-motivated and eager to please—she’s currently working on the command “off” and learning how to take treats a little more gently (she just gets so excited!). Alani’s happy-go-lucky spirit is contagious, and she’s sure to bring laughter and love into any home. Alani has met another dog while with us and did very well, we think she would be fine in a home with another dog or as a solo dog. If you`re looking for a lively, loving companion who’s ready for adventure and affection, Alani is your girl!This pet is available for adoption on 6/12/2025 at 4:26 PM at the Yakima Humane Society adoption center. If you recognize this animal please contact the adoption center at 509-457-6854.Did you know YHS offers a `Foster to Adopt` program?It`s a fun way to make sure you and your potential new pet are the perfect match-like a sleepover, but with extra cuddles! Spend a little time together before making things official. It`s a win-win! Just stop by the front desk and ask how to get started.Ready to adopt?Great news-our spayed/neutered pets are available to go home the same day! You can visit us in person, give us a call, or apply online-whatever works best for you.For online adoptions please fill out our quick adoption questionnaire here: https://yakimahumane.org/adopt/apply/Your adoption fee includes:A lovable new companion, spay/neuter surgery, vaccinations + deworming, flea/tick treatment, rabies vaccine (for pets 3-4 months and older), and microchip with nationwide registration.Every adoption helps support YHS and our community spay/neuter programs to end pet overpopulation.Questions?We`d love to hear from you!
