Story
Roosie is a social butterfly. He loves to play with other dogs and prefers to have people around. Great with kids and other pets. When he is anxious, he will have accidents in the house. He is a beloved pet but needs more attention than we can give him. He is not a labradoodle. He is a lagotto romangolo.

LOOKING FOR TEMPORARY REHOME ONLY We will cover any vet expenses and provide equipment Our dog Daisy needs a new home while her owner Emma (my sister) is away at school for 2-3 years. Would love for you to be in the Bay Area so my sister can see her when she’s back in town a few weeks out of the year. Daisy is very quiet and well behaved, shy but quirky and loves cuddling and light playing.

Story
Lila is 7 years old, fully vaccinated, and extremely healthy. We adopted her from a shelter 3 years ago. She is wonderful with people of all ages, very much including our 2 year old who adores her. Lila is smart, high energy, funny, and extremely loving. Lila has had rough encounters with other dogs, provoked and unprovoked. We don’t let her off leash when we’re out. We worked with a trainer early on, but after the arrival of our son we weren’t able to keep up with it. Lila will thrive in loving one-pet household with ample room and opportunity for exercise. She might also thrive in a different setting, with the support of an experienced, committed dog-lover who's able to work with a trainer. We recently moved to an intentional community where several other dogs reside. We’ve tried to make it work here, but we have reached the very difficult point of accepting that we’re simply not able to provide Lila with the home she needs.

Story
Meet the fantastic Cooper! This guy is a short stack of appreciation. He is only about 55 pounds and on the smaller side for a male GSD. What does he appreciate, you may ask? Being away from the shelter of course and in a home with friends to play with, people to pet him, and a cozy bed to sleep on each night. Cooper was pulled from the Stockton Shelter in mid-July. That place was stressing him out! He needed time, structure and some confident dog and people companions in his life to help him decompress. He also needed to be neutered and to get rest during his recovery time. What helped Cooper move into the new chapter of his life: Short walks through the neighborhood. A patient and confident person. A playful pup friend. A predictable and structured routine. Love and understanding. Cooper tends to have some environmental anxiety but using the recipe above this guy will reward you with companionship, couch potato vibes, goofy antics, silly zoomies, and the softest sweetest eyes to stare into. Fill out an application if this sounds like your type of pup!" FOSTERED IN ACAMPO
