My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Rodeo! ☀️

Looking for a big, lovable goofball who’s full of heart and eager to connect? Meet Rodeo—one of our incredible deaf dogs, and truly a one-of-a-kind companion.

Rodeo is an extra-large cuddle machine with a playful spirit and a huge love for his people. While he may not be able to hear, he communicates beautifully using hand signals and a vibrating collar. He already knows Heel, Stop, Sit, and Come, and he’s always ready to learn more with someone who’s patient, kind, and willing to meet him where he’s at.

This sweet boy recently lived in a home with a 3-year-old child and two other dogs. His former adopters adored him and said he was absolutely amazing. Sadly, due to life circumstances, they had to return him—through no fault of his own. But Rodeo continues to shine with his resilient, affectionate nature.

Since coming back to the Ranch, Rodeo has been reunited with his best friend Lydia, and together they are the ultimate feel-good duo. Lydia, a three-legged sweetheart, seems to share an unspoken bond with Rodeo—they just get each other. Whether it’s Lydia gently nudging Rodeo awake for playtime or the two simply hanging out side-by-side, their friendship is something truly special. While they don’t have to be adopted together, we’d love to see them go to a home as a pair.

And let’s not forget Rodeo’s adorable quirks—he loves carrying around his special blanket wherever he goes, and one of his absolute favorite things in the world is napping in the sun. Just give him a warm patch of sunshine and his blanket, and he’s in heaven. ☀️

If you’re ready to welcome a loyal, affectionate, and completely unforgettable pup (or two!) into your life, Rodeo is waiting to meet you—with Lydia happily by his side.

Call the Ranch today to set up a visit—you might just meet your perfect match.

Additional adoption info

You will first need to stop by our rescue and meet our dogs! If interested in one of our dogs you will need to fill out an application. We also do a home visit if in the area, to make sure you have a secure and a dog-friendly environment. If out of the Siskiyou county area we can easily make other arrangements. Our adoption donation is $195.00. We have a reduced rate for seniors, the disabled, and veterans. Our "Senior for Senior" program offers a further discount and can help with the cost of dog ownership. The adoption fee for puppies who grew up at the Ranch (or in foster here) includes spay/neutering when old enough and is $295.00. All of our dogs are up to date on shots, heart worm tested and any medical issue are treated. Every dog that is going to a new home must be spayed or neutered before they leave Rescue Ranch.

More about this rescue

Rescue Ranch is a small no kill shelter. We have kennels for 22 dogs. We primarily take in dogs from city and county shelters in Siskiyou County before the dogs are out of time due to space limitations. We also make 3-4 trips a year to county shelters in central California to save smaller dogs that can overwhelm shelter resources in those counties. We started about 18 years ago with 40 acres far outside Yreka and were able to help many dogs in the county due to the efforts of the founders and many volunteers. In August of 2009 our new facility opened. We are now about 2 miles outside of town on 10 acres. We have been steadily growing through the efforts of the committed staff, volunteers, and volunteer board members. In 2012 we had 80 adoptions, 2013 we had 105 adoptions and in 2014 we had 167 adoptions. This year in 2020, we are projecting to place over 500 dogs into happy homes! We operate solely on the generous donations from the public and our wonderful volunteers. We have added boarding to our facility and all proceeds from the boarding fees are used to help with our expenses so we can help more dogs find their forever homes.
Our mission is to Rescue-Nurture-Rehome dogs into loving and safe forever homes---We do it for the dogs!
