Story
Meet Mustang – Your Fetch-Loving Sidekick ??Mustang is a 10-year-old Boston Terrier mix with a playful spark and a heart that just needs the right match. This handsome senior still has plenty of pep in his step—especially when there’s a ball involved! ?? Fetch is his absolute favorite game, and he’ll happily show off his enthusiasm any chance he gets.Mustang is very food motivated, which makes him eager to learn and easy to reward. Treats are the way to his heart, and they’ll be a big help as he settles into a new routine.He’s more of an independent gentleman than a cuddly lap dog. Mustang isn’t overly affectionate and tends to keep to himself, but he enjoys being near his people in his own quiet way. He’d do best with someone who appreciates a dog with a little personal space and a lot of personality.Because he can be a bit sensitive about his wounds and may get a little nippy if they’re touched, Mustang will need a patient adopter who can respect his boundaries and handle him gently while he heals.Mustang would thrive as the only pet in the home. He prefers having his space and will do best in a household where he can be the one and only animal, soaking up attention on his own terms.If you’re looking for a low-key companion who loves a good game of fetch and values his independence, Mustang might just be your perfect match. ??

Typical to puppies her age, Esme is still needing to learn life skills and manners to help her grow up into a good canine citizen. This can include leash walking, potty training, etc. Esme may do well in a home with other animals and/or children with a slow, thoughtful introduction. Esme is available for preadoption at this time – come in, fall in love and you can take her, home after her spay surgery!Now through February 15th, all adoption fees are reduced to $33 - come to the Shelter today to adopt your very own Valentine!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!
