Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
If you love herding dogs and are looking for a velcro dog, Molly is your girl! This sweetheart is absolutely dedicated to her human. Molly will attempt to hug you every second of every minute she is with you. Trying to pick something up off the floor? Nope, you're getting smothered in kisses. Want to go to the bathroom by yourself? Uh un, no you may not shut that door without this sleek little shadow zipping in faster than lightning. Molly was brought to the shelter as a stray, and her coat and behaviors show she was out on a grand adventure for a bit. Now that she is clean and groomed, this black beauty is a cuddle bug who easily redirects from inspecting the trash. Molly needs slow introductions to other dogs and does well with submissive dogs. She does very well with redirection and distraction when she starts to get antsy around other dogs. Really, these behaviors are insecurity of her environment, but she has learned to adapt to pack life quite easily. Her herding instincts are very strong and she loves to play with the herding ball and direct the other dogs in games of chase. Molly has not been tested with cats, but she would likely chase them. She is a little nervous when loose in the car, but rides very well in her kennel. She likes to bark at grey trucks in particular. Molly is approximately 2 years old, is spayed, and is UTD on her vaccinations. She will need an active family who can give her the exercise and mental stimulation this girl needs to thrive!

Story
Courtesy post for rehoming. Patti or Patti Melt and Patti Cake asa her foster lights to call her is a loyal and affectionate beauty. Her favorite activities are catching the ball playing frisbee and snuggling up on the couch with her person. She is food motivated and will do almost anything for treats her stunningly, beautiful ice blue eyes are real showstopper. She is a petite girl at about 45 pounds. She is making progress on leash and is eager to please. She would make an excellent running partner or would simply love to be with her person wherever as long as she is by their side. Patti can be left alone, but needs to feel secure in the area that she is left. She does not like to be in a secluded small space. It takes her a while to warm up to new people so she will require some patience with that. She also enjoys playing with other dogs, but needs close monitoring as she doesn’t have all of the proper social skills yet. She would likely do well with another doggy sibling as long as intros are properly done. Her unwavering and fierce loyalty are her greatest attributes. Whoever adopts Patti will have constant affection and never feel lonely. If you’re interested in meeting Patti please contact her foster mom Anne via phone or text @ (925)699-0841

Sicario/ Frida

Border Collie German Shepherd Dog

Male, Adult
North Highlands, CA
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Sicario is a beautiful sweet cuddly blue heeler. He is 3 years old. He is beyond smart and patient. I got him after my ex brought him home one day and have tried my hardest to do right by him. He is amazing with humans, children. He is very laid back and not really an aggressive barker. The only thing is he was abandoned for a while and grew an attachment to another female dog (8 years old) that my ex also left there. It is very crucial that he gets rehomed with her and that there are NO OTHER pets in the home. They are VERY territorial. I would prefer a home with a decent size yard though they aren’t used to that. The female is a German shepherd and is also very sweet and friendly with humans, children.

These pups are in Sacramento, California too!

Australian Shepherd American Pit Bull Terrier

Male, Adult
Sacramento, CA
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Peppe was born sometime early August of 2017. He was an indoor dog his 1st year and was potty trained. Peppe loves going on walks, playing with toys, and does well in secluded areas. He does however bark at bikes, people and animals that walk/run past him. While on walks Peppe is protective, he can come off as too interested and pushy at first. When meeting new people he is a little cautious but does great if introduced correctly and rewarded with food. Peppe likes to play soccer, tug-a-war, and chase squeaky balls. In the summer Peppe loves water and playing in the kiddy pool. I have owned ducks and chickens and he does do well with them. My sister has a female pit bull terrier who is very vocal when it comes to playing and they do great with each other. Peppe is not food aggressive, he can be pet while he is eating.

Story
Walks and fetch - please!! This is what he lives for! Koda would be GREAT in a 1-2 person home with someone who works from home with no kids. He gets very anxious about staying alone and always likes to be with his person. He s 69 pounds of love and brilliance and enjoys riding in the car for any amount of time, long walks, fetch and swimming in the river. He has trouble getting shots at the vet and so we are overdue. Koda has had 5 week behavioral training at Ridgeside K-9 in April 2025 and is a quick learner. He really lives for playing fetch with a stick or a ball but gets snippy with the vet and getting put into his crate
