Story
Thank you for your interest in this sweet girl. Ella has been adopted, Energetic, loving, and goofy 9-year-old Ella is super sweet but needs a family with an experienced dog owner. A little under 2ft tall and 40 lbs, she's sleek and muscular. Ella is fully house-trained and very patient with the three cats she lives with. She's never lived with kids but is generally chill with the children in the neighborhood. 
 She loves her toys, playing fetch, tug of war games, following you around the house, and of course, napping. Ella wants to be involved in whatever you're doing and is alert to someone coming to the door. She is highly food motivated, Ella picks up new tricks quickly but can be stubborn and easily distracted, so she needs lots of consistent positive reinforcement to maintain behavioral changes. She has many opinions and she will let you know about them. 
 Ella also plays well with other dogs, although sometimes she has issues with dogs larger than she is, but is good at de-escalating potential conflicts. Ella really loves company so if her new people are gone for a full work day she will need a canine companion. She's leash trained and always excited to jump in the car to visit the park. Ella is a great dog looking for a home where she is loved and cherished. Would you be the one for her?" Ella is now being fostered in Oakland, CA and her adoption fee is $275.00 Arrangements to meet our dogs occur after an application has been received. Please contact us at dogzonerescue@yahoo.com for more information about this great gal or for an application to adopt.

Story
Grayson is a big, white hunk of love! He is the biggest love bug and cuddly boy you will ever meet. He is a licking machine and will try to give you kisses any chance he gets. And don’t be deceived by his size, all 73 lbs. of this affectionate boxer boy loves to cuddle and act like he’s small enough to be a lap dog. He will play ball, go for walks/hikes, jog with you, or play in the backyard. He’s also a chill boy in the house and will lay in his bed or cuddle with you in yours. He can be active outside and mellow inside, best of both worlds! He loves going on outings and gets excited to go for car rides. Grayson is the ultimate adventure buddy and is always up for anything! Grayson does get a little anxious when left alone and would prefer someone who can hangout with him most of the day and take him on fun adventures! He is very food motivated so you cannot leave him unattended in a room with food or he will find it (and eat it lol)! Grayson loves all people, including kids, and would be a great addition to any family. He can be jumpy when he gets excited, so dog savvy children would be better for him. Grayson does get along with some dogs but can be reactive with others. He is mostly reactive when on the leash but if out in a yard he is very playful and friendly with dogs. We have found that he is great with small dogs male or female! He is a very good playmate and friend to the resident small female dog that lives with him. He can be selective when it comes to bigger male dogs. Overall, Grayson could thrive in a home without other dogs, with small dogs, with dogs who are submissive, or as an only dog. If you think Grayson could be a good fit for you, please apply online to meet him. He is awaiting his forever home that will embrace his loving, goofy self!

Story
Hi everyone, This is Nelah and I can't wait to meet you. Everyone says I look like a Boxer/Bulldog mix and that is fine with me. I love that I have white and brindke markins and that my fur is so soft. Even though I am 5 yo, I still love chasing balls especially ones that squeak and hanging out on the couch with my friends. I like drinking water from a hose and have my own little pool to cool off. I have all of my vaccines, am spayed and have a microchip so you can find me if I ever get lost. If you would like to meet me, please apply at jellysplace.org.

These pups are in Hayward, California too!

Story
Adopt Pluto This handsome boy found a foster home to wait in until he finds a furever home. Pluto’s story is very heartbreaking . He didn’t deserve the fate that he had when his owner stabbed him almost to death! He was taken to the ER and revived by his amazing hospital staff. He was taken to the shelter and that’s where we were able to take him in. Pluto Does GREAT on walks!! He also Does well with other dogs, he also pays little to no attention to other dogs on walks and he seems to mind his own. Pluto plays fetch, 100% and prefers squeak toys He gets a little fixated on cats but hasn’t met any in the same home yet. Pluto honestly is overall such a great dog and i think any family would definitely love him ! Pluto is neutered, vaccinated, chipped and ready for a home. He came from neglect and had so much trauma to his body. He was stabbed by a human and lives to find a better life! His ER nurse helped him recover and then became his foster! Pluto didn’t deserve such abuse and now he gets a chance to find a home. He might be around 3 years old and has a whole life ahead of him! Pluto was rescued from the Stanislaus animal shelter. He would love to come join your family! To meet Pluto please apply! Located in San Jose ca Can anyone please open their home to adopt this sweet boy

Meet Sundae, a gentle lovebug who is as sweet as ice cream. Sundae is around 5 years old and 70 lb. • Gentle and Affectionate: Sundae’s signature move is to crawl into your lap for snuggles.

Story
Meet Riley: Your Goofy, Cuddly, Entertainer! Ready to meet your new best friend? Riley is a handsome 4-year-old, 65lb Pitbull mix bursting with personality! His foster family describes him in three words: goofy, cuddly, and entertaining! Riley is a medium-energy guy who loves his chew toys and a good game of fetch. A brisk 30-minute walk usually leaves him happy and ready for some quality snuggle time on the couch. He's a smart cookie who is highly food-motivated and truly enjoys training sessions. The Awesome Stuff: * Training Pro : Excels at 'sit,' 'down,' 'stay,' and 'place.' * Super Cuddly : He loves to snuggle up on the couch or on the bed. * Leash Skills : Fantastic at walking with a loose leash (when not distracted by potential dog friends!). * Crate Trained : Sleeps soundly in his crate overnight without a peep. * Easy Grooming : Doesn't mind being handled or bathed, and is fine being picked up. * Potty Trained : Reliably lets you know when he needs to go outside. * Good Alone : After a couple of weeks to settle in, he's calm when left alone at home. * People Person : Riley has never met a stranger he didn't like! He frequently gets compliments on walks for being so handsome and polite. Riley's Journey & What He's Looking For: Rescued from a high-kill shelter in Modesto in August 2024, Riley has come such a long way! He initially struggled with leash reactivity towards other dogs, but thanks to a dedicated 60-day board-and-train program at RFRD Academy (and continued work with his fosters), he's made huge improvements. While he still gets excited and pulls towards dogs out of curiosity sometimes, he's actively working on staying calm around other dogs and is learning fast. He's looking for a loving home where he can be the only dog, soaking up all the attention from his adults or teenage family members. Riley is a truly wonderful dog with tons of love to give. He's neutered, microchipped, and fully vaccinated – all ready to find his forever family! Could Riley be the silly, adoring companion you've been searching for? He's currently boarded at RFRD Academy in San Jose, CA, and is eligible for foster or adoption through Pack Lyfe Rescue. Fill out an application today, and let's see if it's a match! You can check out more pictures and videos of Riley on his foster profile here: https://www.instagram.com/pawnana.fosters/March 8, 2026, 12:21 am
