Story

COURTESY LISTING: Please contact Desiree at 510.575.5086 or desireeshaver@comcast.com. Cesar is a lovable goofball, protective and loyal. He's been professionally trained at a boarding facility but doesn't have a home to return to. He is desperate need of a foster of forever home, and a handler who can provide structure and discipline to continue his journey as a model canine. Cesar has been through so much. His mom was evicted and he was separated from his brother. He's been in and out of homes and was on the euthanasia list at the local shelter before he was rescued by a good samaritan who raised enough money to enroll him at a training boarding facility. All the volunteers have fallen in love with him. What his trainer wrote: Cesar is an excited happy guy who thrives off structure. He’s amazing on leash. He’s also crate trained and is great around food. Even though he gets excited easily, he doesn’t have a ton of energy and would prefer not to do anything too strenuous. ? He would be an amazing only dog but could also live with another dog if he’s given time to adapt. If you would like to have a coffee date with Cesar please contact Desiree at 510.575.5086 or desireeshaver@comcast.com.

Story

Hi I’m Tucker! I’m an 8 month old (as of Mar 2026) puppy looking for my forever home -- or a foster. I’m playful, energetic and a cuddle bug when I come out of my shell, but take time to warm up to strangers. My current foster mums are women, but I take to men better -- I'm going to be a man when I grow up after all! My favorite thing to do is ride in the car, take walks and hike. I love water play and I play all day with my best friend who is a giant German Shepherd. I’ve had some training but will benefit from continued training and socialization . I’m up to date on all my vaccinations and am neutered. I have some visual impairment but that doesn’t stop me from any adventure. I’ll be your best friend. Please contact Desiree if interested: desireeshaver@comcast.net or 510.575.5086

Story

Ivan is a very sweet and happy fostered Huskador (Husky and Labrador mix) looking for his forever home. He is 3 years old and weighs about 60 pounds and is full of personality. He is very lovable and will be by your side looking for affection and will definitely make you smile every time he receives a pet, a hug, or a treat. Ivan is an all around great dog that gets along with all people, children, and other dogs. He walks well on the leash, does great in the car, and is ready for new adventures. He has been neutered, full vaccinated, and microchipped. He is house-trained, but he does not like being in a crate. Ivan does have a sister named Ivanka whos is posted separately. It would be ideal to keep them together, but we are open to having them get adopted separately. Either one of these beautiful dogs would be a great addition to any loving family. Note: Transport of this dog anywhere in the US can be provided if needed.

Story

Our dog Daisy is an energetic Tic and spunky French bulldog. She was born in 2016 and is still very active even though she has 10 years old. She loves to go on walks and be outside as well as lay in the sun or take long naps. She loves food and is very food motivated and with the proper time and attention she enjoys training exercises that stimulate her brain. While she is a full bread, French bulldog, she has a longer snout and long legs, so she does not struggle with breathing issues like classic Frenchies. We are looking to grow our family, and unfortunately, the amount of time that we were able to spend with our fur babies has become very limited. Daisy deserves to have more attention than we are capable of giving her. We currently have a toddler and are trying to have our second child in 2026. We would love for Daisy to go to a home where she could be given more one-on-one attention.
