Story
Bobo is a gentle 6 y/o female purebred German Shepherd with the sweetest soul. She loves going on walks, playing with other dogs in the park, and playing fetch. She is loyal and protective friend. A great guard dog to keep you safe. If she sees people that her owner doesn't acknowledge or recognize, she will bark at them through the window.She is house trained and non-destructive. She is cautious with new people, but she has never shown aggression to people that her owner introduces as friends. With enough time and bonding, she will be very open to whoever can give her a loving home. She lives with another big dog, a Rottweiler Mix named Fuho. Ideally, they could be adopted together, but it's not required. She would do well in another household with a dog that she can play with, or that can take her out to socialize with other dogs. She's very smart and recognizes the names of family members. Please give her a loving home!

Story
(Fuho actually lives in Pittsburg, CA)Fuho is a very sweet and extroverted 6 y/o male Rottweiler/Cane Corso mix. In spite of his size, he is very gentle with people! He is social and loves playing with other dogs and very open to meeting new people. Off the bat, he will be very excited to meet and play with you. He loves playing fetch and chewing on chew toys.He typically sleeps outside in a warm dog house at night, but he is fine indoors and spends most of his time there. He lives with another big dog, a female German Shepherd. Out of the two dogs, even though he's bigger, he's actually more timid, often coming to his owner for comfort when she bullies him. He would do well in another household with a dog he can play with, or that can take him out to socialize with other dogs. He would thrive in a home that can take good care of a big dog and give him lots of love.Please give him a loving home!

Story
Well, unfortunately, I have to get rid of blast. I’ve been having him since he was a puppy. He’s currently four years old October of this year. He’d be five years old. I’m unable to care for him. He is a great dog. He love walks very friendly. He loves to play jump. Anything that is active. He loves. I usually take them to the marina dog park, which he enjoys sometimes he escapes from the house and goes to the park on his own. What I will say is he is very manful when it comes down to his food, but overall, he is a sweet dog like I said before I had him since he was a very little puppy. I just cannot care for him anymore and I want to be able to give him what he deserve and that is a loving home, someone that can devote their time and patience and give him the walk. He deserve and at this moment, I am not able to do that so I am trying to find somewhere that he will be happy at.

Story
Hi! We adopted Hendrix in 2018 from Friends of Alameda shelter. He was found on the streets of Alameda. They think he was 2 - 2.5 years old back then so he should be around 10 - 10.5 years old now. He is a big cuddler and will be your shadow, a velcro dog if you will. He is very protective of me (mom) so random dogs are not an option when I’m around. His sitter says he is a good boy with other dogs. I have pics and videos of him with other dogs if you want to see them. This is heartbreaking to have to give him up but I am unable to care for him properly anymore. If you can take him, give him walkies, love on him, and just be a better pet parent than me I would be forever grateful. Anything I have that is his you may also have. His food and water bowel, leash, poop bags, harnes, clothes, everything.

Story
NAME: ROSSA GENDER: FEMALE BREED: MIX COLOR: BRINDLE AGE: 9 MONTHS OLD WEIGHT: 28lbs SPAY OR NEUTER: Yes MICROCHIP: Yes If you would like to give ROSSA by a forever home, please go to www.adoptadoggie.org to fill out an online application. Please email your home photos to contact@adoptadoggie.org Rossa is a playful and happy girl. She loves everyone she meets and is good with dogs of all sizes. Rossa has a rough start in life. However, it doesn’t stop her from loving and trusting humans. She is doing well in her foster home and ready for a forever home. Rossa started some leash training and is learning at a good pace. She is crate-trained and doing well on her house training. Rossa loves her trips to the doggie park and enjoys her daily walks. Rossa is a lovely girl and will be a good family dog. Rossa’s Rescue Story Rossa and her four siblings were caught by a volunteer of a TNR (Trap / Neuter / Return) rescue group. TNR rescue groups specialize in getting stray animals spayed and neutered and the animals are returned to their original location to live as homeless dogs and cats. TNR programs help with the overpopulation of unwanted animals. The volunteer caring for him loves him and didn’t want to see him back on the streets. The volunteer reached out to an experienced international rescue organization to save him and some other puppies that are still too young to be released back to the streets. The founder of the rescue organization has over 160 dogs waiting for homes. She really does not have space for another dog. However, she could not bear to see them suffering on the streets. She agreed to take them home and give them a chance in life. Rossa along with her 40 other buddies were all rescued and live together waiting for their own forever homes. Rossa had a thorough medical checkup. She had been spayed, vaccinated, microchip, and passed negative on her blood tests. Please give Rossa a loving home where she will never be left behind again.
