My story

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

Courtesy Post – Meet Darth Vader! NOTE THIS DOG IS NOT AT THE SHELTER

Don’t let the name fool you—Darth Vader is a sweet, playful 8-month-old Pitbull mix who’s still learning the ways of the world! With his striking black-and-white coat and boundless energy, this young pup is looking for a loving, experienced home where he can thrive.

Darth Vader is:

  • Neutered and up to date on vaccines

  • Potty trained and crate trained

  • Friendly with women and warming up to people at his own pace

  • Excited and playful with other dogs (just a bit too excited at times!)

  • Allows people to take food and toys without issue

He’s been kept primarily indoors, and while he’s never lived with children, his playful energy suggests he’d do well in an active home—ideally with someone who has time to dedicate to training and enrichment. Like many young dogs, he needs structure and positive guidance to help channel his energy productively.

Things to keep in mind:

  • He has jumped fences, so secure containment is important

  • He’s still learning to trust men, so a calm, patient introduction is key

  • If placed with another dog, slow introductions are recommended—he gets very excited and doesn’t always know how to keep it cool

Darth Vader has so much love and potential, but his current owner can no longer give him the time and care he needs to succeed. If you're experienced with young, energetic dogs and are looking for a fun, loyal companion, Darth Vader could be your new best friend.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

*The shelter is currently open for adoptions by appointment only. Please email us at adoptycas@gmail.com if you are interested in adopting.
For other shelter services, please call us at (530) 668-5287*

To adopt you must have a photo ID and proof of your current address. If not on your ID then bring in a bill with your name and your current address. If you rent you must provide a lease clearly stating the pet policy or provide a name and phone number for your landlord so that we may confirm the pet policy. If you own your home you may provide a mortgage statement or property tax bill for proof.

You must be 18 years or older to adopt.

If you wish to adopt a dog and have other dog(s) at home, please bring them with you to the shelter so that they may meet. Even if your dog is wonderful with other dogs, many of the dogs at the shelter have come in as strays so we have no history on them and need to be sure they get along with your pet(s).

If you have any other questions, please go to www.yolocountysheriff.com or call the shelter for more information.
