Gustavo was turned into the Hayward shelter as a stray. He was SEVERELY underweight. His appetite was voracious. He was so hungry that he would eat his own poop as soon as he pooped it. However, he kept losing weight. The shelter called Nobody’s Perfekt Dogs to help. After taking him to our vet, then eventually a specialist, it was determined that he has a condition called Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency (EPI), where the pancreas doesn’t produce the enzymes needed for digestion. The food was going right through him - he was starving to death. After putting him on the appropriate supplements, he went from 7 lbs to a healthier 12+ pounds in about 5 weeks. He will need to take these supplements for the remainder of his life.
Otherwise, he is a sweet, very friendly lap dog, that seems to get along with everybody. He needs a home that will diligently monitor his weight and continue with the proper supplements he needs to live. Nobody’s Perfekt Dogs Rescue is willing to support his medical needs for the remainder of his life, if we can find a permanent foster home for him.
Please note that we don’t adopt any of our dogs out to homes with children under the age of 13.

After the application is approved, the prospective adopter must take the dog on a trial-basis "sleepover" for a few days, before finalizing the adoption.
We require landlord approval if the applicant is renting their living space.
We only do adoptions in San Francisco Bay Area and surrounding regions.
We DO NOT adopt to families with children under the age of 13.

More about this rescue
We specialize in finding homes for dogs where “imperfection” is tolerated in exchange for a lifetime of love and devotion.
Our foster dogs have been discarded by the people they once trusted, only to find themselves in a shelter with no other options.
We want them to have a second chance to receive the love and care they deserve.
