Story
Meet Napolean, the chipper little fella of a chihuahua! He came into the Shelter as a stray so we don’t have much history on him. Staff report that although tiny, Napolean is confident and social – often at the front of his kennel greeting people with tail wags and eager whining. He tolerates being picked up and, once in the yard, bounding around and playing. He has enjoyed playgroup with similarly sized dogs and has even “held his own” with larger sized dogs. A home with another canine to play with may be a fit in the future after a meet and greet at the Shelter. We do not have any history of Napolean with cats or dogs. Although tiny, Napolean`s energy is mighty so he would likely do well in a home that is active and will take him out for adventures with them. 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
Meet BUDDY True to his name, Buddy is everyone’s best friend. This affectionate, eager-to-please pup is always excited to see you—he wiggles with his whole body when you call his name! He is shy at first but so very sweet, he's playful, and just a little bit goofy, making him the perfect addition to any family looking for a happy companion. Buddy would thrive in a home with another friendly, confident dog to help show him the ropes, or with someone who has the time and heart to help him continue learning how wonderful life can be. Buddy gets along well with other dogs and is doing great with his socialization. He’s working on his leash skills and learning quickly. With continued love, structure, and patience, Buddy will grow into the most loyal family dog. If you're interested in meeting Buddy, please visit www.aarflove.org to review our adoption process and submit an application. Rescue dogs thrive with patience, structure, and lots of love—and in return, they give you a lifetime of quiet loyalty and gratitude. Please note: We receive many wonderful applications and may not be able to respond to everyone. If we feel you might be a match, we’ll reach out directly. Thank you for supporting rescue!

Meet TANNER Playful • Affectionate • Quick Learner This darling boy is the curious and playful mischief-maker of the litter!

He’s playful and bouncy, loves toys, and adores being near his people. Tanner is a typical puppy—curious, energetic, and eager to soak up the world around him. While he may be a little shy at first, he warms up quickly and becomes your loyal little shadow. Tanner uses the doggie door, walks great on leash, and loves car rides. He’d be a great adventure buddy or a cuddly sidekick, depending on your vibe. If you're looking for a smart and spunky pup to keep life interesting, Tanner might be the one. Tanner would do best in a home with another friendly dog to play with or a family ready to shower him with attention, patience, and love.
