Here's what the humans have to say about me:
CALI - Your Personal Bouncer With a Cuddle Quota
Looking for a dog who loves you like crazy, cuddles like a pro, and takes her security job way more seriously than she needs to?
Meet Cali — your built-in home protection plan with a soft, snuggly interior.
Cali is the definition of a loyal homebody. With her people, she’s a total sweetheart — affectionate, gentle, and happy to curl up next to you like the world’s coziest weighted blanket. She’s also a big beach girl — sand, waves, adventures, sunshine… she’s all about it. Take her to the shore and she lights up like a puppy again.
But strangers in the home?
She will absolutely let an unfamiliar guest know that they are trespassing on her sofa kingdom. She’s not here to make small talk — she’s here to make sure you’re safe.
So if your home isn’t a revolving door of visitors, and you appreciate a dog who stands between you and weird vibes like a furry German Shepherd–shaped bouncer… Cali is perfect.
She’s looking for someone who:
• Loves a loyal, attached, ride-or-die dog
• Doesn’t mind telling visitors, “Yeah uh… let me put the dog away first”
• Appreciates a protector with a soft side
• Wants a dog who bonds deeply and loves even deeper
• Would love a beach buddy who thrives in the ocean breeze
Cali may not be for everyone — but for the right person, she’s everything: a guardian, a companion, a cuddle buddy, a beach partner, and the sweetest little security system money can’t buy.
Adopt Cali — the affectionate homebody who’ll adore you fiercely and keep your peace protected.
