My story

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

WEIGHT: ~7lbs.

Meet Mr. Crumb- Somewhere out there someone is singing an old folk tune about Mr. Crumb. He's King of a land far far away and lords over his people, the Crumb people, with an authority that no one dares question. At least, this is the tale that he tells. We've tried to remind him that he no longer lives in that place, he lives in Santa Cruz among mere mortals now, but he won't hear it. The transition from King to shelter dog has been a tough one for him. He can get frustrated when things don't go his way or when he's asked to do something that he doesn't want to do. He's got some handling sensitivities, so he'll need a quiet home with an understanding dog-savvy adopter and plenty of decompression time. Think you've got what it takes to help Mr. Crumb to rebuild his kingdom? If so, call our adoptions desk Wed-Sun 11-5.

Additional adoption info

In response to COVID-19, and the current social distancing rules, all of our animals are now being housed in foster homes and our adoption procedures have changed. Please read the following ADOPTION STEPS on our website for further details!

**Please Note: Most of our adoptions are beginning with a foster-to-adopt period, and because of this, we are temporarily unable to consider applications from households outside the counties of: Santa Cruz, San Benito, San Mateo, Santa Clara, and Monterey.

If you rent, please have a copy of your lease or a letter from your landlord that states you can have a pet(s) ready.

If you’re adopting a dog, introduce your future friend to any other dogs in the family (dog adoptions only).
