We got her at 6 weeks old. And try to rehome her and that hasn’t been successful. She was the runt of the litter. Her name is Zeena she is now almost 5 months old. I live in an apartment. She needs a house with plenty of room to play outside or/ and active owners. And loved being around family and other people. She is a sweet girl, loves other dogs, and likes cats. She likes to go on walks and rides to the store, play with other dogs and humans. She needs an owner who can walk her, play and who will let sleep indoors, especially in the same room. She loves companionship.

Story
 Meet Amazing senior gentleman Max!  For a guy that is 10 years young,  Max is an energetic Border Collie with a serious passion for fetch—but not your average game of fetch. Oh no, Max has his ownsignature move: drop the toy, give it a gentle nose nudge your way, thenback up like a quarterback waiting for the pass. It’s adorable, it’sefficient, and honestly, it’s kind of genius. He’s playful,polite on the leash, and always down for a splashy adventure ( hose, anyone ?). Whetherhe’s herding puddles or mastering his next toy toss routine, Max brings energy and good vibes to whatever he does. He usually has a smile on his face, and be on the lookout for that serious Border Collie stare. No senior deserves to be spending his Golden Years in the shelter, so if your looking to save a senior that still has a lot of pep in his step, come meet Max today !Max has participated in shelter playgroups and may enjoy a compatible canine friend in his new home.  He may do best with female dogs.  Looking for a buddy for your dog?  Bring him/her to the shelter for a meet and greet and see if we`re a match!  Check out his playgroup video here:To meet me, visit the Bradshaw Animal Shelter Tuesday-Sunday, Noon - 5:00 pm, Wednesdays, Noon - 6:00 pm. All adoptions are on a first-come, first-served basis. To help expedite the meet and greet process, please make note of my Animal ID number, and those of other dogs you might be interested in meeting. Be sure to bring your ID with you, too. We are located at 3839 Bradshaw Road, Sacramento. I look forward to getting to know you!

Story
Meet Shyann – A Gentle Soul with a Heart Full of Love. Shyann is the kind of dog who quietly slips into your heart and stays there. With her sweet nature and calm presence, she doesn’t need to ask for your attention—you’ll just find yourself wanting to be near her. While Shyann may not present well in her kennel and be a bit vocal, don`t let that deter you from meeting her outside. The shelter environment can be stressful to all the dogs. Shyann thrives on connection and will happily spend her days close by, offering a soft nudge, a paw in your hand, or a loving look that says, “I’m here with you.” She’s loyal, affectionate, and always eager to please. Shyann walks beautifully by your side, checking in often as if to make sure you’re doing okay too. She knows “sit,” “down,” “shake,” and “watch me,” and she’ll gladly show off her skills—especially if there’s a treat and a kind word involved. Her gentle spirit makes her the perfect companion for someone who wants a true bond, one built on quiet moments, shared walks, and unconditional love. If you’re looking for a best friend who brings calm, connection, and comfort into your life, Shyann is ready to be yours. Come meet her today :)  Shyann recently met some social dogs at our shelter.  She was defensive and didn`t seem to want to make new friends here. It`s possible that if her new adopter were to do slow introductions over a matter of days or weeks, she may do well with a social, well mannered dog in her home.  To meet me, visit the Bradshaw Animal Shelter Tuesday-Sunday, Noon - 5:00 pm, Wednesdays, Noon - 6:00 pm. All adoptions are on a first-come, first-served basis. To help expedite the meet and greet process, please make note of my Animal ID number, and those of other dogs you might be interested in meeting. Be sure to bring your ID with you, too.

We got Archie when he was 2 months old and currently will be v 8 years old. He loves chasing squirrels if given the opportunity. Loves going on walks, hikes. He is house trained and knows some commands. He almost never barks unless there’s a critter outside. We recently moved into a duplex with a small backyard and given we have 2 kids under 2 and we can’t give him the full attention he deserves. I would like him to go to a good home along with our other dog in the picture(golden retriever) since they have been together since they were pups.

Story
Tater was left at about 6 weeks old in a plastic bag, hanging on the doorknob of a fire station. He came to us through a friend of the family. He is now about 1 year old. We think Tater needs an active home that is able to spend time finishing his training, playing with him and doing all the things a young dog likes to do. Tater is smart, friendly and playful. He hasn't yet learned how to curb his impulses, and stop playing with our other pets (a smaller dog and 2 cats) when they aren't interested in playing. He is pretty good with using a pee pad when indoors, and the commands "sit", and "leave it". We started working on leash walking previously, but he still doesn't like to have his harness put on and seems anxious when going for a walk outside. He also doesn't like his nails trimmed. He isn't destructive (except to soft dog toys) but really likes dog treats that take a while to chew/eat and does not destroy rubber, Kong type toys.
