Story
Estrella is a little dog with a big personality. She is 8 months old, and we have loved having her with us. She loves to be the center of attention and will let you know she wants attention. She is a very loving dog, and she also has tons of energy. However, we sadly have to rehome her for two reasons. The first is that we have another dog, and despite all our best efforts, they do not get along. We've had her for 6+ months now, and we have tried very hard to get them to get along, but it's not working, and it's been very stressful for our other dog. My other dog now has behavioral issues due to the stress she's under living with Estrella. Additionally, we are in the process of relocating, and the only space in our budget we found only allows one pet, and it is much smaller. For these reasons, we sadly are rehoming Estella. She is mostly potty trained now, but she has occasional accidents. She's spayed and has all her shots. Thanks in advance for considering our special girl.

Story
Chance was brought to us from a Central Valley shelter. He had been waiting in the shelter for 3 days after his urethra was nicked during his neuter surgery. We named him CHANCE ❤️ because that's what we wanted to give him. After several months in a loving foster home, he is now a happy, peppy and very bouncy 20lb chihuahua blend. CHANCE ❤️ enjoys and respects his canine roommates and loves socializing with his foster family and their children CHANCE ❤️ is now ready for his furever home.

Story
Chihuahua Age: ≈ 4 years old Female, spayed 12 lbs Adoption Fee: $125 (includes spay/neuter, microchip, vaccinations) Mara was brought into a local by someone who found her. During her evaluation by shelter staff to access her suitability for adoption to the general public, they observed some high-value resource guarding with other dogs and people. She was also difficult to handle during her vet check. This is very typical of dogs that are fearful/stressed in a scary shelter environment. Because of these observations she was deemed “unadoptable” and could only be given to a rescue group experienced with behavioral issues. When we got her to our adoption center, she bonded very quickly with the volunteers, allowing them to handle her, give her affection and attention. In her foster home with a couple of other dogs, she does some lap guarding. The dogs in the home are all fed separately and the humans don’t typically bother the dogs while they are eating. There are quick, easy and effective methods to stop lap guarding (as well as high value guarding). Mara responds well to correction. She will need an experienced adopter that can effectively manage these issues. With a little time and patience, Mara could live with other dogs her size that don’t respond negatively to her guarding behavior. Otherwise, she likes people, likes attention, good on a leash, appears to be housebroken (but not too sure about using the doggie door in her foster home, yet). Please note that we don’t adopt any of our dogs out to homes with children under the age of 13. For more information about Mara, contact nobodysperfektdogs@gmail.com

Story
Chihuahuas Age: 4 yrs / 1 yr Females, spayed 9 / 7 lbs Adoption Fee: $125 (includes spay/neuter, microchip, vaccinations) Kanga and Roo came to us from the San Mateo SPCA. Kanga wasn’t at risk, and would have been available for adoption at the shelter. However, her surviving puppy (the other one died at the shelter), Roo, was special needs and was still nursing, so we had to take Kanga and the puppy, Roo, together. After separating them for a while once Roo was weaned, we decided to put them back together after Roo recovered from her surgeries. Kanga came from a very bad hoarding situation. She was very underweight (which probably contributed to the poor condition of her two puppies). She is very healthy now, and ready to be adopted. Roo showed signs of congenital birth defects in her legs (not surprising, given her rough start). Three of her legs were “good enough” for mobility, while the 4th leg was pretty messed up. We decided to do a series of surgeries to realign the bones on the worst leg. She is fully recovered and gets around pretty good (although, not sure that she could take long walks - maybe a stroller is in her future?) Kanga can be very shy and cautious when meeting new people, but when she does feel comfortable, she is super sweet and affectionate. Roo, as a puppy, loves everyone. Please note that we don’t adopt any of our dogs out to homes with children under the age of 13. For more information about Kanga & Roo, contact nobodysperfektdogs@gmail.com
