Story

At 7 years old, Furious is a sweet, affectionate boy who loves kids, gets along wonderfully with other dogs, and is happiest when he can curl up in your lap for maximum snuggles. He has no problem putting his entire body on you to get as close as possible! Furious came to us as an owner surrender when his family realized their long work hours made it difficult to provide the care and attention he deserved. They wanted him to have the opportunity to find a home where he could enjoy more companionship. When we received him, we discovered that Furious has significant vision loss, with some remaining peripheral vision, which our vet later confirmed. He navigates his surroundings well, settles into new environments quickly, and enjoys toys when someone joins in to help him play. He's crate trained and potty trained, too! He was also diagnosed with bilateral ear infections and ruptured eardrums, which have left him with limited hearing. Despite these challenges, he navigates his world remarkably well. He will need patience and time to adjust to a new home and routine, along with a family willing to accommodate his sensory limitations. Furious is headed to Pug Hotel, our senior pug and hospice sanctuary partner in Ukiah, CA, where he can stay as long as he needs while we search for his perfect match. He's an incredibly loving boy who deserves a home that will appreciate his gentle nature, give him time to settle in, and provide all the comfort, companionship, and lap time he could ever want. Furious is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and has received a dental. He's ready for a new chapter with someone who will love him just as he is.

Bodie

Pug

Story

Bodie is a sweet, energetic pug with a big personality. He gets so excited when he gets attention that he can't help but tell you all about it. He's playful, curious, loves being around other dogs, and is already starting to discover just how nice it is to have people looking out for him. He loves playing with toys and bones and will jump on the couch for a nice nap. He loves walks and does well on a leash and dog parks are amazingly fun. He is potty trained to a dog door now as well. We estimate Bodie is 4-6 years old. He came to us from Oakland Animal Services after being found as a stray, and while we don't know much about his past, we suspect he hasn't had much positive human interaction. Some of his teeth are unusually short, which our vet believes may be from chewing on a cage or enclosure. He's also a little jumpy, fearful at the vet so may need some sedation for vet appointments which isn't uncommon. Bodie has learned that humans are much nicer than those he knew in the past. He will let you pet him, carry him and touch his face which scared him at first. At our recent Oakland pug meetup, he did wonderfully mingling with dozens of pugs, and we loved seeing how much confidence he gained simply from being around friendly people and dogs. While he was fine around children at the park and at another adoption event, we would recommend older kids since we don't know his past traumas. This sweet guy has come a long way from living in a cage to being in a loving foster home and will continue to flourish in his forever home we are sure. It's hard to know what Bodie experienced before rescue, but some of his behaviors suggest that life may not have always been kind to him. He can be anxious about what's happening around him, and all of this sudden attention, affection, new people, and new experiences are a lot to process. We think there's a very sweet, loving dog underneath that uncertainty, and he just needs time to realize that this good life isn't going anywhere. Bodie is looking for someone who will meet him where he is and give him the patience and stability to build trust at his own pace. He's high energy and would likely love having another confident, friendly dog in the home to show him the ropes. We'd especially love a home where his people are around most of the time or can bring him along for adventures. He deserves the chance to finally learn what it feels like to be safe, wanted, and cared for. Bodie is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and fostered in Sacramento, CA.

Story

In early October, we shared our rescue mission to bring Patron back from a Southern California shelter after his previous adopter left him there without contacting us. Patron had already experienced so much before coming into our care last summer, and unfortunately, he found himself homeless once again. Since then, he's been decompressing in a loving foster home, where he's had time to settle in and feel safe. We also got him back to our vet for updated vaccines and a checkup. Patron is 7 years old, although you'd never guess it from his looks or personality! We have his original medical records, including his actual birthdate, to confirm it. Patron is a cuddly, affectionate, playful guy who gets along well with other dogs. He's house-trained, enjoys walks and trips to the dog park, and is equally happy playing or curling up for a nap. He's an easy pug to fall in love with, and once he feels comfortable with you, he'll love you wholeheartedly. One thing potential adopters should know is that Patron experiences fear and anxiety in unfamiliar situations, particularly at the vet. He will need to be sedated for veterinary visits moving forward to help make those experiences less stressful for him. We don't know what he's experienced over the past year and a half, but it's clear that some situations are frightening for him. In a familiar environment, with people he trusts, he settles in beautifully. We're looking for a home that understands rescue dogs need time to adjust and is willing to give Patron the patience, consistency, and commitment he deserves. Ideally, his family will have someone home for most of the day, enjoy including him in their daily activities, and give him the companionship he's been missing. He doesn't need a perfect home, just one that will embrace him as he is and never give up on him. Patron originally came to us as an owner surrender through a partner rescue. After multiple disruptions and another unexpected loss of stability, we want so much more for him. His foster parents are completely in love with him, and we know his forever family is going to feel just as lucky to have him. This sweet boy deserves a soft bed, a loving family, and the security of knowing he's finally home for good. Patron is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. He is currently being fostered in Brentwood, CA.

Story

Meet the happiest pug around! Goober is a big personality packed into one lovable pug. He makes friends wherever he goes and is equally happy meeting new people, joining a group, or finding the closest lap to claim as his own. He's confident, outgoing, silly, and full of love. When Goober enters a room, he makes himself right at home! Goober came to us as an owner surrender after his previous owner no longer had time for him. He had been spending much of his time in a crate, and they wanted him to have the more active, fulfilling life he deserves. He's fantastic with kids, loves the dog park, and is always ready to play. His ideal home would be an active one where he's included in daily adventures, gets plenty of playtime, and has a fun, playful dog companion to be his best friend. Some of Goober's favorite things include toys, treats, mealtime, and cuddling with the nearest human. Baby, adult, it doesn't matter. If there's a lap available, he's claiming it! He's still working on his leash manners and potty training, so he'll need a family willing to continue helping him learn. Goober is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. He's currently being fostered in Antioch, CA

Story

Noodle is ready for his forever home! We're looking for a very special family for this incredible little guy! We estimate Noodle is about 9 months old, and he's been with us since May, when we rescued him from the shelter as a stray. Noodle is a one-of-a-kind puppy who will always be small and baby-like. He loves being held, melts right into your arms, and is the sweetest little snuggle buddy. He loves everyone he meets and gets along wonderfully with other dogs. His favorite pastime at the moment is being the team mascot at trivia night! Noodle was labeled rescue-only at the shelter because of severe deformities in both knees and ankles that left his legs twisted out of alignment. He underwent corrective surgery at UC Davis Veterinary Hospital and has spent the past few months recovering. He's now in physical therapy and working on getting stronger. Noodle will never have a perfectly typical gait, and a genital deformity may make potty training more challenging. But caring for him is a joy, and his medical needs don't take away from the wonderful puppy he is. Noodle has already overcome so much. Now, he deserves a family who will embrace his differences, celebrate his progress, and give him all the love and snuggles he could ever want. He's neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped.

Story

Shiloh is ready for her forever home! We introduced you to this one-of-a-kind pug mix last month after she came to us as an owner surrender when her family was preparing to welcome a second baby. Since then, we've learned more about what makes Shiloh so unique, and now she's ready to find a family who will love her exactly as she is. She's six years old. Shiloh has Short Spine Syndrome, a rare genetic condition that affects how the vertebrae develop. Her spine is shortened and curved, and her rib cage is compressed, giving her back a distinctive shape. The good news is that it doesn't slow her down, and she isn't experiencing pain. Surgery isn't recommended, but she will need ongoing monitoring and careful weight management to avoid putting unnecessary stress on her back and internal organs. At under 10 pounds, Shiloh is a petite little personality with plenty of quirks. She's food and treat motivated, loves playing fetch, and will happily chase her own shadow or the dancing sunlight across the floor. Vacuums, however, are absolutely not her thing. She can be protective of her prized possessions, but she isn't aggressive. Her favorite place is your lap and quickly attaches herself to new people. Shiloh is fully potty trained and loves her walks. She's currently enjoying the forests and beaches of Carmel, and we'd love to find her a home where she can continue exploring the outdoors and enjoying life at her own pace. She could do well with other small dogs, but she'd also be perfectly happy being the star of the show. After everything, Shiloh deserves a home where she can be cherished for the special little dog she is. We believe Shiloh is a Chihuahua-Pug mix, often called a Chug. She is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped, and she's currently being fostered in Vacaville, CA.
