Female, Adult

Fremont, CA

Size

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

Details

Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Nirai (means calm) and her 4 friends were all dumped in the streets of Fremont. They were all neglected dirty and very matted. She is more timid and nervous than the others. Needs more time to decompress and feel safe at her foster home. The shelter had her shaved down since she was severely matted (See my before and after picture!). She is now relaxing at her foster home. More photos and info to come as she learns and feels safe. Update 1/20/26 from her foster home: She was scared for the first two days but now she is a completely different dog. She sleeps very well through the night in her crate is potty trained and already knows how to use the doggie door to go to the backyard for her business. She is good with other dogs though she doesn’t play with them much yet. She is also great with my 5-year-old son. She loves human company more than dogs for now. She plays with my son and my husband sleeps on our laps and loves belly rubs. She also seems fine when we leave her at home for a few hours. I’m feeding her home-cooked food and she loves carrots and treats. See How Happy now in the links below! Watch my video #1Watch my video #2March 7, 2026, 12:25 pm

Neena D7481 (was Tootsie

Husky

Female, Senior

Fremont, CA

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Neena (was Tootsie) was at a distant and very crowded shelter for a long time and her time was running out. When volunteers took her out she was friendly and great with all the dogs on leash and in dog play groups (off leash). Did great with transporter. She is very skinny and needs to put on weight. Once out at her foster home on 11/17/21 she was nervous but warmed up fast to her foster home but not to their female husky. She was guarding and reactive to their dog at home. Got into a few dog fights. They are keeping them separate and giving her time to adjust. 11/28/21 Update: Took about a week but Neena is now doing fine at her foster home and with their other female dog. She is the top dog at their home. They love their walks and hanging out. They do feed in seperate areas. She still need more basic and leash training. 1/12/22 Update: Still working on leash training to teach her to stop pulling and not be so excited when seeing other dogs while on walks. 3/28/22 Update: Foster hasn't attempted to test Neena with cats however they can see Neena has a strong prey drive so if the cat runs it is expected Neena would chase. She is now great with foster home's female husky.March 7, 2026, 12:25 pm

Romeo D4462 (now Koji)

Husky Australian Cattle Dog

Male, Adult

Fremont, CA

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

His DNA test is a mix of many breed types. Mostly Husky Cattle dog and Terrier. What a unique mix! 1/27/25: Urgent. Romeo needs a new foster home or foster to adoption home. His adopter from March 2021 have a toddler that Romeo is fearful of and now they are expecting a 2nd baby and move to a new house. Romeo needs a adult home and older kids are fine. He loves his walks and lounging at home with his family. Sad they need to rehome him after almost 4 years. They do not want to keep him sep with baby gate since he wants to be near them. 8/5/24 Poor Romeo now needs a new adult forever home. His current home adopted him March 2021 but they now they have a new baby that is crawling. Romeo did well with new baby-dog training with a trainer but recently he guarded his toy from the toddler when she tried to pick up. He did a correction nip to her heel but no injury. He was correcting her like another dog. The couple have set up baby gates and following the trainer's tips but feel it would best if he can be rehomed to adult or older kid home. He loves his daily walks. Prefers to be the only dog at home. Romeo has been thru training. Been eating healthy fresh food mix to his kibble. Up to date with his annual vet care. 4/5/25 Romeo (Koji) is boarding with a trainer. He bonds to person and loves petting and being brushed. He wants to follow and be with the person. He can climb a 8 ft chain link fence in just a minute or so if left alone. He will try to do this to follow person. Prefer to be inside home with person and be your BFF. Original updates from 2021 below: We rescued Romeo from a distant shelter. He was found with metal cable line tied to his collar. He is Sandy's brother who we rescued last week. Romeo arrived at the shelter days later. The shelter was closed Friday to Monday so he was very happy to get out of his kennel on 2/16/21. He is very friendly wiggly happy and a sweetie. Was calm riding in the car with a car safety harness. Great with other dogs. He did great at his vet exam. Like Sandy everyone adores him. Romeo is already doing great at his foster home with another dog at home. Loved his long walk. His foster home is active and will hike/jog him daily for 3-5 miles. Romeo will love healthy foods/treats home training dog friends daily exercise and TLC. We are not sure of his breed mix but has both Husky and Jindo qualities. Romeo has a fluffy tail and very soft coat. Romeo will not be ready for about 2 weeks or more while he settles at his foster home and we try to line up his neuter surgery. He will need an experienced and active guardian. No cats since he does want to chase cats on walks. Romeo has adjusted quickly to his foster home. He is very loving and full of energy.. He will definitely need an active family and daily exercise. We are working on fetch and he’s almost got it down! Loves squeaky toys and tennis balls. He loves to give cuddles and is a very sweet boy. Sometimes he can be a bit unaware of his own size and strength but he is still young. He needs a lot of training to be a better walker. The pulling on walks can be an issue but nothing proper training can’t solve. We are working on potty training. Once he gets neutered that will help with the marking problem. He most likely would not do well in a home with younger children because he is a bit clumsy and still does the puppy biting thing (Understandable because he is still young). No children under 10 years. Despite his size Romeo is a really good lap dog who loves belly rubs and cuddles. He does just fine with other dogs of all sizes. As far as cats he seems triggered by cats on our walks. I don’t know how he would do in a home with a cat. He sleeps comfortably in the crate at night and doesn't seem to mind it.March 7, 2026, 12:25 pm
