Story
Maggie is a very calm, sweet dog. I took her from a previous owner that had her for 11 yrs. She was given up as far as I know bec she was getting in her way if doing things. Maggie as I found out has abandonment issues. She has anxiety and always needs a companion. She’s scared of thunder and loud noise. She’ll be content just laying right beside or on your lap. I have a hard time leaving her for work. She panicks when nobody’s around esp the person that she’s used to. No other behavior problems, just really needs someone with her to make her feel secure. She’s a really good dog but I really hate doing this to her everytime I work. Her previous owner who had her for 11 yrs is retired, so they must’ve been together all the time. I hope to find someone who could really be a good fit for Maggie . She’s good with car and even plane ride.

Story
Hi. Rosie is looking for a new home! She needs a family that can give her lots of training and attention, as she is only 7 months old and still has lots of energy. Due to very long work hours and a recent divorce, she no longer gets the attention she deserves. Unfortunately, there is also a landlord issue at our new home. She is a total lover who eats up all the snuggles and attention. She is also an amazing breed and will make a GREAT companion once she finds a place to give her all the love and attention she deserves! Thank you so much for your consideration.

Story
Hi, my name is Elle. I need to rehome the best dog ever, Beaky, because I need back surgery. Beaky truly is the best dog. When I’ve been in good health, he has walked with me for hours each day and walks very well on a leash. About once a month, he pulls me toward a squirrel into a bush, which hurts my back. He is amazing with cats (as long as I make it clear that we are not chasing them), good with most dogs, and wonderful with my two small children. When we play a kazoo or when he’s excited, he sings the characteristic husky howl and almost never barks. Before I broke my elbow, he would bike with me for eight miles, running alongside the bike. When he’s not biking or walking-being outside is his favorite-he happily lies on his dog bed or on the couch all day. He never complains, even if it’s raining and I cannot take him out for days. He’s truly the best dog, and I’m looking for someone who will love him as much as he deserves.

Story
Maggie was an adopt by my sister to prevent euthanasia from an owner who didn’t want her despite having no known health issues. She’s eleven years old, but NEEDS VERY EXPERIENCED OWNER! Her anxiety is extremely severe and she is an escape master from gated places and can jump high despite her age. Needs a lot of attention but is very cuddly and loyal.

Story
Bailey is one Chill Dude! He is a big Velcro Dog. He pretty much just wants to sleep most of the day, as long as he knows where you are but loves a nice long walk too. He is great on leash, no pulling or reactivity. He is the epitome of a gentle giant. He loves his foster's Cal King bed. She said she probably should not have let him get on it BUT the lure of having a huge snuggle bunny in bed at night, was just too tempting. Now he is in heaven and rarely leaves the bed. Bailey came from the Stockton Shelter, he had a large mass on his spleen, and an enlarged prostate with 2 very large testicles swinging around. We were able to raise $5,000 to get all of his medical done - splenectomy, neuter and ears cleaned and treated) and now he is just perfect. Tumor was benign so he is ready to be your life size snuggle bunny, if you are ready. We have noticed slight resource guarding with human food (reason he should not be in the kitchen) and high value treats but it is not very bad and we are working on it using "trade up" or not allowing him to have items he feels he needs to guard. As far as other dogs, he really does not care about them. Same with cats, just sorta looks at them and then goes about his business. BUT, that does not mean there is no prey drive. We will be testing him. As far as children go, we have not had him around any of those yet, but will. I suspect he treats them just like everything else, checks it out and then moves on his way. He does have a special need. We are pretty sure he is deaf. While he was under for his operation they cleaned out his ears and treated them but he still does not really hear much. Might be why he is so chill. We will have the ears looked at next to see if there is anything more needed for him. He is ready for new foster home or adoption. We are willing to do a Foster to Adopt or just a foster if you are interested. We need him to get more interaction with other stimuli, the home he is in now is very quiet. Interested in meeting Bailey?
