Dalton the German Shepherd rests at a Newport Beach park during an adventure walk on Sept. 5, 2025. When he came into the rescue, he had a broken leg, so it took some time for him to recover from that injury. Now he’s friendly and loves to be around other dogs. “He has an issue with no dogs, and no dogs have an issue with him,” volunteer Mike Syre said. “We often walk him with new dogs, puppies, scared dogs, because they gain a lot of confidence from him.” Credit: ANGELINA HICKS, Voice of OC
