Story
Additional information about this animal is available as of August 10th, 2024. It will be provided to an interested party or rescue. Dog Day Out notes from last week: Today, I was so happy to get out of my kennel! I got to put on a collar and harness, and I got to go in a car!! I love the car! I wanted to help drive, but my new friends said I should eat cookies instead, so I looked out the window. I love going for walks! We walked a long way! I wanted to be in front, but my friends would stop, so I got to give them snuggles when they did that – I like snuggles more than cookies! We saw so many things! People and dogs and lots and lots of bikes! I don't worry about those things though, I have my friends! I almost tried to catch a squirrel, but it got away. That's okay; I gave more snuggles to my friends! Oh! And on the way back, I took a nap – I loved the quiet time. Three Words to Describe Me are affectionate – snuggly - and friendly. Notes from My Walker: Traviesa is such a delight! She pulls on the leash, but it seems like she just never got a chance to learn how to walk on a leash before. She did amazing on the busy trail – we saw bikes, walkers, and dogs, and she was non-reactive to almost everything. The small, barky dog got her attention, but he started talking first, and she displayed interest, with no reactive lunging or barking. She is not a cookie girl, but she LOVES to snuggle. We love it when dogs on the trail check in with their human friends, but Traviesa was at another level; she would stop and lean in for a hug before continuing the walk! She is a sweet, gentle, loving dog who deserves a home that will let her learn and give her the chance to be a fantastic companion dog.

Story
Meet Socks, the leggy mixed breed. Socks came to the Shelter after her previous guardian was unable to continue caring for her. This energetic gal is needing an active adopter to meet her day to day needs. She can be jumpy and mouthy (especially when excited). These behaviors can be overwhelming for children or people inexperienced with dogs, especially since Socks is a larger sized dog. Socks has attended playgroup at the Shelter and has enjoyed wrestling and running around with other large sized dogs. She can be a tactile player (pawing at the dogs and jumping on them) so any resident dogs should meet at the Shelter prior to adoption to ensure that the dogs jive. Staff have observed that when another dog is present, Socks is less likely to jump and mouth on people. Due to this, a home with a canine companion is highly recommended moving forward. Socks was outdoors previously and should transition to indoor living as she wants to be with people and a part of the family. Adopters should be patient with Socks to help her transition to her adoptive home and learn life skills and manners (like leash walking and potty training). Good news is that Socks is HIGHLY food motivated and super smart so she is up for the challenge of bonding with her new people through learning. Socks is available for pre-adoption. Come meet her, fall in love and take her home after her spay surgery. The Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter Foundation is now offering “Pawsitivity Bucks” with every dog adoption. This $200 training voucher is a way for newly adopted canines and their guardians to connect with local positive reinforcement based behavior consultants and get their relationship started off on the right paw! Please note: Our Santa Cruz location’s Shelter hours are 11-6pm, 7 days a week! Although clients can walk through and see any animals in their kennels during open hours, we end “meet and greets” (aka meeting an animal out of the kennel) at 4:30pm every day. If you’d like to meet an animal out of the kennel, please arrive before 4:00pm to allow for time to discuss individual animals and meet them.

Story
She may have genetic traits of a herding cattle dog. Alone once comfortable she will herd nip for attention. In a trainer home with many ther dogs for two daily hikes running and playing for hours she has not herd nipped the trainer. She needs a home with other active dogs to play and run with or ranch home with sheep or lamb as a working dog. Smart and listens to commands. Plays ball. Once exercised she does relax at home. She has energy and has to burn off with a job or other active dogs. Beautiful Wanda and her siblings were on Monday 12/8/25 shelter PTS list. She was only 9 mos old and social friendly. Yet SASA is euthanizing many friendly and healthy young dogs weekly due to capacity issues. Shelter is over-loaded daily by irresponsible owners that dump their dogs. Worse now during Holiday month when many are away on vacations. So the poor innocent dogs have less time at this shelter. Her brother was adopted last minute. Wanda had no options left so we tagged her to rescue her. Volunteers and staff adore her. She is super friendly dog friendly and smart. Needs basic training. She has mix of two very intelligent athletic and devolted brave breeds. Ready to learn and be your BFF for life. Loves toys knows sit for treats and is playful. Will play with her mouth but soft. Great hiking and walking buddy. Will probably enjoy any fun or working you both may like. Smart dog. We will emergency board her to save her life while we search for an experienced foster home. More info. to come. Update at her Foster Home: She is smart affectionate dog and people friendly. Loves to play ball go on walks & hikes lounging on sofa chair well behaved at home crate trained and very treat /food motivated. She is a sweetie. Everyone she meets always fall in love with her. Wanda is waiting for her forever loving and active forever home. She has a strong prey drive so no cats. She can be nippy (herding dog) when she wants attention or doesn't get enough exercise. So no kids. Need experienced guardian to guide her. Quiet in crate. Going to teen dog personality. She is a great hiking buddy and loves to play ball. She needs the exercise and then naps at home. Very well behaved. Loves playing with other dogs. Need foster home ASAP due to foster home returning back to work.

Story
Meet Destiny! Destiny is a special girl who has come along way. She’s about one years old, spayed, vaccinated and micro chipped! Destiny is originally from the Stockton animal shelter where she was found alone in a field. When she was found nobody even knew she was a dog. She looked like a Small neglected hairless bear. Her mouth seemed to be broken and her teeth were sticking out, she had mange, ringworm you name it! Her foster mom rehabilitated her from top to bottom! Destiny could not even find a foster until her current foster mom who has had her from the beginning stepped up to help her! Destiny has now had two surgeries on her palate to repair the hole that was in her mouth. We have no idea exactly what happened but it seem to have either been a firework or something electrical in her mouth which caused her Deformed gums. Destiny currently has a small hole in her palate but is able to eat larger kibble/ground beef and chicken. She is a very energetic puppy with long arms but still is on the small side. She loves to play with dogs and she loves people. She is not very fond of the leash but who knows what she has been through. We are looking for a beautiful home for her that can give her everything she ever deserved. She would do great with puppy training classes. She likes to jump and say hi to you. She also has her tongue sticking out so she loves her kisses as well. But whatever she likes to do we let her because she has been through so much and now she can finally can be herself!! She is around 35 pounds right now and we don’t think she is going to grow anymore. Her breed is very hard to pinpoint but we were thinking she might be some type of Formosan mountain dog or terrier? Please share destiny and her story and let’s find her an amazing home! To meet destiny please fill out our adoption application and right now she’s being fostered in Salinas California. The last photo is of her when she was first found. https://form.jotform.com/212583059015149March 8, 2026, 12:21 am

These puppies (males and females)come from an unexpected litter. The mother is on the wait-list to be fixed. I have reached out to multiple rescues and societies unfortunately that are at max capacity and can't help. They are precious puppies that need and deserve families and forever homes.

These pups are in Milpitas, California too!

Story
Sadie is a loyal ~2yo spayed 55 pound active small German Shepherd. She loves lots of affection, long walks and playing with her toys. She is a moderate energy dog, playful and active but also settles down nicely indoors by your feet. She is housetrained and sleeps in a crate.  She will need an active home that will keep her mentally and physically busy. She will chase cats that run. She needs proper intro to new dogs.   She is undersocialized and also needs continued training and structure. She needs continued socializing with other dogs and people (reactive in public). She would do best in a home with German Shepherd experience, as she can be insecure and also defensive/protective. She would do best with a single woman, or will need experienced handlers in a multi ADULT home (NO CHILDREN) who will be willing to commit to working on her socialization. NO APARTMENTS!
