AVAILABLE – DUKE

October 11, 2022/in Featured, Our Dogs

Meet DUKE, a sweet 2-year-old beautifully marked boy looking for a loving home. DUKE weighs 52 pounds and has a red/brown and white medium coat and a beautiful full tail. DUKE is a shy dog when first meeting people and may vocalize out of fear (but shows no aggression). His foster family is helping him learn/build good relationships by spending time with him (while avoiding direct eye contact), giving him plenty of pets and hugs, and letting him ask for more pets and hugs (nose bumps, body rubs, etc). A long lead may be helpful as DUKE can be wary of approaching, especially with someone he doesn’t know. Once he knows the ‘routine’, he is comfortable – for example, he knows that, at night, he is supposed to follow his packmates upstairs and get in his crate for bedtime (where he is then treated)

Adopted – Coco

July 26, 2022/in 2022, Alumni

COCO came to us a stray. The streets were not kind to COCO, she was sick, thin, and badly in need of dental care. But with Coco’s strong determination to survive and a deep need to belong to someone, mixed with some excellent dentistry a bath, a persistent foster Mom and 4 pack mates, and the opportunity to slowly recover in an environment where she felt safe, secure, wanted, and lavished with lots of affection and kisses – COCO has blossomed into a beautiful bold happy little girl, running, and talking, playing and napping, chasing squirrels, watching the birds on the fence line, taking rides to and from, driving up and down the American River Parkway.

ADOPTED – Nick

July 13, 2022/in 2022, Alumni

ADOPTED – Meet NICK! A sweet and cuddly 3-4 month-old puppy, NICK is about 11 pounds with a smooth beautifully marked black, white and a hint of copper coat and expressive dark eyes. His spotted shawl and sometimes stand-up ears are darling, and he will be the first to let you know when he wants something (he is vocal!). NICK is highly socialized and loves being with his humans, receiving hugs and kisses, cuddling and receiving belly rubs.

ADOPTED – Jess

July 13, 2022/in 2022, Alumni

ADOPTED – Gordy

June 30, 2022/in 2022, Alumni

ADOPTED – Meet GORDY! This sweet 6 ½ year old boy loves affection and welcomes kind words and cuddles. Weighing in at about 60 pounds, GORDY has a classic easy care black and white coat, a black round accent around his right eye, and a slight overbite, showing an adorable bit of pink tongue. Once he knows that you are friendly, he comes right up for pets and cuddles.
GORDY does well on the leash and loads up into car and travels great. He shown that he knows basic commands. He just wants to please you.
GORDY likes to know that he is in a safe environment and will do best in a quiet household without young children which he will run and hide from. Owners should understand gentle, positive behavior reinforcement and offer dedicated household areas (like a crate) where GORDY can relax. GORDY has demonstrated herding behavior and cats are definitely not on his friend list. However, GORDY gets along with his foster BCs just fine, and is quite kind to our young foster puppy, who routinely gives him kisses.

More Hugs!” He’ll need gentle guidance to learn basic commands, and of course some supported practice. A play buddy and sturdy toys will make SIMON a happy dog.
