Story
Our baby TOG girl is patiently waiting for her forever and ever home. She’s blossoming every day - recently earning her Certificate of Completion in Beginning Dog Training and even tackling a 9-mile hike with her foster mom like a champ! We think that she would thrive as an agility dog, she is such a smartie! Annie is looking for a calm, adult home where she can keep learning and building on her good manners. She sleeps soundly through the night and greets every morning with happy tail wags and excitement for breakfast. She’s learning the joys of daily walks and gets along well with the other dogs in her home. She is about 4 years old and she weighs 21 lbs. Cheerful and eager to please, Annie is ready for her happily ever after.

Story
Moka and Tommy are part of a group of 26 dogs who were confiscated from a single home by Antioch Animal Services. They are now learning what a safe, loving life looks like - together. When 7-year-old Moka’s foster family offered to help, they specifically asked for the most shut-down dog from the group, and that was 9 lb Moka. The good news is that she is slowly beginning to blossom. With patience and kindness from her foster parents, and support from brother Tommy, she’s settling in and starting to discover the comforts of home and the kindness of people. 1-year-old, 9 lb Tommy was rescued by the same foster family shortly after Moka. Despite everything he’s been through, he is an incredibly sweet boy who has adjusted beautifully in their foster home. He’s happy, affectionate, and brings a gentle confidence wherever he goes. The two immediately recognized each other. Since then they have formed a very special bond. They play like crazy together, she grooms him, and Tommy has helped Moka come out of her shell in the most wonderful ways. She now follows him outside into the yard, something she was previously too timid to do. Tommy clearly helps Moka feel safe, and Moka finds comfort in his presence. Because of this beautiful connection, they are being adopted out as a bonded pair so they can continue their journey together. They will do best in a patient, loving home that understands that the best things in life sometimes just take a little time.

Raider and Sassy (bonded pair)

Female, Senior

Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details

Story
After losing their dad and then having to say goodbye to their mom as she moved into memory care, Raider and Sassy’s whole world changed. They left behind the only home and family life they had ever known. Understandably, they have been a little confused by all the changes, but thankfully they still have each other. They have settled into their foster home, where they are surrounded by love and getting all the care they need as they adjust to this new chapter. Both are good with other dogs, and Sassy even enjoys playing with them. They are house-trained, sleep through the night, and were well cared for in their previous home. We are currently working on helping Raider gain a little weight, and both have decided that being hand-fed is pretty great. Raider is 13 years old and weighs 13 lbs. Sassy is 8 years old and weighs 11 lbs. These two will need a little time and patience as they settle into another new home and would likely be happiest in a mellow adult household. This precious little package deal has already lost so much, but they still have each other. Now Raider and Sassy are looking for a loving forever and ever home where they can stay together and feel safe, loved, and settled once again.

Story
Eva lived in an assisted living facility with her beloved Papa. After he passed, another resident tried to care for her, but it quickly became too much. When the family reached out to us, we knew right away that this sweet girl belonged with Tails of Gray. 8-year-old Eva is a mellow, house-trained little lady who loves to cuddle, gets along beautifully with both people and dogs, and is happiest snuggled on the couch surrounded by a mountain of blankies. Aside from a heart murmur and minor arthritis, she is considered healthy. She arrived a bit underweight at 12 lbs, but she’s steadily filling out. Since joining us, Eva has truly blossomed — even showing a cute, playful side we hadn’t seen before. She’s ready for the next special chapter of her life and can’t wait to meet her forever family.
