Story
Please welcome the truly gorgeous Gabby! This pretty girl is 3 years old and a magical mix of dog breeds that makes her one of the most unique pups you'll ever see. She was originally rescued in the pouring rain, and once cleaned up, fed, and vetted, her sweet personality shone through. Weighing 49 lbs,Gabby is very loving and adores all people, including kids, and gets along well with other dogs and cats. While she is happy to coexist with other pets, she would also flourish as the center of attention in her forever home! She is curious and eager to please her foster, though she can be cautious when meeting new people until she warms up.Gabby is already reliably crate trained and is making great progress with her leash manners. She would be a perfect companion for someone looking for a sweet, engaged, gentle, and playful pup who is past the problem puppy stage—a dog you can snuggle, walk, and who will make you feel like the best dog parent ever. All our dogs come spayed and fully vetted.Gabby is currently being fostered in Ukiah, CA ##1943484##

Story
Meet Pete! 🐾Pete is a wire-haired terrier mix with a big personality and an even bigger zest for life. This active, fun-loving guy is always up for an adventure-long walks, playtime in the yard, and especially a good game of fetch are his absolute favorites. If there's a ball involved, Pete is all in.After he's had his fun, Pete knows how to settle down and enjoy the cozy side of life. He loves curling up with his favorite people and soaking up all the affection he can get. He's a great mix of playful energy and cuddle-ready companion.Pete can be nervous when meeting new people and dogs and does best with a slow, respectful approach that gives him time to feel comfortable and build trust. Because of this, he would likely be happiest in a calmer home and may do best without small children.With patience and guidance, he has so much potential to shine. Pete is ready to find his new bestie-could that be you? Primary Color: Tan Weight: 21.1 Age: 3yrs 7mths 0wks
