Story
Meet Dove! Dove is a professional happy girl with a PhD in People Loving. Her hobbies include wagging her tail at full speed, making new human friends (old ones too—she’s not picky), and assuming every person she meets is there specifically to adore her. She’s cool with other dogs and would be thrilled to have a canine sidekick, but she’s looking for a cat-free home—she says it’s “nothing personal,” just a lifestyle choice. What Dove really wants is a family of her very own: people to cuddle with, follow around the house, and greet like she hasn’t seen them in years (even if they just went to the bathroom). If you’re searching for a joyful, loving, slightly silly companion who believes life is better with constant affection, Dove is ready to move in and steal your heart.

I’m a Foster Friend! If you are reading this, I’m currently in a foster home but would LOVE to meet you. Please call 707-963-7044 to schedule a meet-and-greet, see you there! Snickerdoodle is a vibrant, high-energy pup who brings a whirlwind of joy and excitement wherever she goes! She treats every single day as a grand adventure, and is always on the lookout for a quick game of fetch or chase around the yard. She has a bouncy personality and an infectious smile that you just can't stay mad at! While her endless enthusiasm and energy might entice you, Snickerdoodle is also an incredible student. She treats every command like winning a game, and though she may be a bit picky when it comes to her treats/ rewards, this girl will still do all the tricks even if you don't have a tasty snack to offer. With her sharp mind and her incredible focus this girl is definitely a straight-A student!

Story
We pity the fool who passes up Mr. T! This muscle-y mister may look tough, but he's all heart! He may be a bit timid at first, but after gently accepting a couple of treats or pets, this guy will quickly become your biggest fan! He truly is a lover and always welcomes any affection you may have to offer. He may lounge around at times, but this guy is a professional during play time. He loves a good wrestle or a tug-of-war session. He is still working on his fetch skills but even if he won't bring the ball back, he's just there to have a good time! This top tier snuggle bug is also the happiest guy around. Once he connects with his person, it is smiles for days. He is an optimistic pooch who hopes you'll fall in love with all his little quirks. If Mr. T sounds like the pup for you, come meet him today!

Story
If you are seeking a charismatic chihuahua who will never leave your side, then Peanut may be just what you are looking for! Even though he is quite small in size, this little gentleman has an enormous personality and an even bigger heart! He is a true lover boy and will always make sure to check in to receive some pets. He has also proven to be good around cats! Though he prefers to be the center of attention, he has proven that he respects the boundaries of cats. He is currently co-housed with cats in our main office and doesn't mind sharing the spotlight! He may be wary or occasionally bark at strangers, but after a couple treats he is ready to fall in love with anyone! If you are looking for a very loyal and affectionate alarm system, then come meet Peanut!

Story
Soup is a 2-year-old German Shepherd waiting to find his new best friend! Wherever you go, he wants to be right there with you! Love to adventure? He’ll join you! Want a running buddy to join you on a hike? Just say when. Ready to lounge around after an active day and watch a movie? Give him a couch and a belly rub, and he’s there. This sweet boy makes friends with any person he meets, and with so many possible friends, he doesn’t enjoy spending long stretches of time alone. He’s house-trained, and he’s working on his basic commands like “sit” and “shake”. With a little time (and delicious treats), this smart guy will be unstoppable. A perfect day for Soup would start bright and early with activities, spending all day hanging out with his best friend (inside, outside, somewhere else - he doesn’t care as long as he gets to be with you!), and ending the day with a cuddle session. Soup would thrive in an active home where he can spend plenty of time outdoors and with his person. He can’t wait to meet you! In fact, he’s got a big smile on his face right now just thinking about it. Come meet him today!
