Story
The most aptly named Pogo is a terrific little guy who may not have had the best circumstances up to now, but he's plucky and sweet and is looking forward to a good old fashioned do-over. Pogo's time in foster care has been the perfect jump start (pun intended) to his path to better living through chemistry - his chemistry with those he loves. Pogo's foster mom has written extensive and beautiful notes about his time with her; make sure you read every word as you'll find her experience very helpful.Pogo is shy when you first meet him, but his bravery does him great credit as he's very willing to get to know you. Once he does he'll probably stick to you like glue. He loves laps, treats and exploring his surroundings. Pogo was interested in the other dogs he met, but in the end his interests kept him exploring bushes and jumping into the arms of his newest human friend.Pogo might try to lap guard his person. The best way to handle this is to not let him be on a lap when he meets new people. Let him say hi to someone new and have them give him a treat. Poof voila! New friend(s).Pogo has been rapidly learning new things and is a perfect candidate for a small dog class. Love, patience, routine and training will help ease his anxieties. If these ideas resonate with you, Pogo is a big find in a small package; a great small dog companion just waiting for you to come meet him and help him live his best life!

Story
Meet me at the mobile adoption event on Saturday, July 27th at Woodlands Pet Food & Treats Novato from 12-3pm (unless adopted before 3pm). An onsite sign-in sheet will open one hour before the event.Polly Pocket is a tiny, white chihuahua with long Whippet legs and body. She's so cute with huge ears that are always at attention. She's a small girl but not at all shy around dogs or new people. She's done very well with an older, 15lb bossy chihuahua - she understands when he wants to play and when she needs to back off. She is sometimes a little possessive of her foster mom but we are working on correcting that behavior and she is a fast learner. Polly Pocket would love to be a purse dog. She bonds quickly with her favorite human (whoever feeds her) and will shadow them wherever they go. She went to the hair salon and happily sat in her person's lap through cut, color, shampoo and blow dry, giving warm hellos to everyone in the salon. Polly hates to be separated from her human but stayed in her exercise pen for about 2.5 hours one evening and did just fine. She's doing great with potty training - at first she only used potty pads inside but is starting to hold it longer and longer until she is taken outside. She's not very vocal but will occasionally join in an alarm bark with her foster brother. She's a world class snuggler.Polly would probably not be best for young children because she is so dainty and fragile, but would love to bond with older children.She will make a perfect addition to the right loving family!!

Meet me at the mobile adoption event on Saturday, July 27th at Woodlands Pet Food & Treats Novato from 12-3pm (unless adopted before 3pm). An onsite sign-in sheet will open one hour before the event.(From my foster home)While a bit shy at first, Fresca is a very sweet little girl with a wonderful temperament. She warms up quickly, and gets along well with other dogs, cats, and kids. Fresca loves to go for walks as much as she loves to cuddle and snuggle. She has been on a limited Science Diet I/D formula food, as she's had a sensitive stomach. She would be the perfect companion for anyone looking for a little pup with a big heart.

Meet me at the mobile adoption event on Saturday, July 27th at Woodlands Pet Food & Treats Novato from 12-3pm (unless adopted before 3pm). An onsite sign-in sheet will open one hour before the event.(From my foster home)Meet Stitch (aka Timmy)! Stitch has mastered the sad puppy dog eyes, but it's actually the happiest little man ever. He was even wagging his tail when he received his shots. He loves people and loves to cuddle. He's the first to greet people when they come to visit. He's met kids of all ages (toddlers to teens) and loves them all. He's happy to be picked up and gives lots of kisses. Belly rubs are also appreciated. His favorite place is on the couch next to a human. He's dog social as well and loves to play. He's met a bunny and was very interested. He has not met a cat, but I think he'd be fine with one.He's working on potty training. He currently sleeps with his siblings in a pen through the night.
