Story
Goober is a 2.5 year old lover and very excited to meet people. He needs to work on understanding cues from other dogs when it's time to relax, so he needs someone willing to step in and make him take a break when he is with another dog. He will be so excited wanting play and has irritated other dogs in the past because of this. He is aggressive towards cats and would not do well in a home with a cat. He has lived with 2 toddlers and a preteen and the only issue he's ever had is jumping during play. Please keep in mind that this breed does require grooming occasionally. He knows sit, down, kennel, off, and has been trained with a pinch collar and bark collar if you choose to use those tools. Goober would do really well with someone that wants to walk, run, or hike with him or loves to play fetch.

Story
Maia is a very sweet and loving Collie mix. She loves to play and is a big time snuggler. She is very eager to learn and learns new words so quickly! She is truly a wonderful dog. Maia was a COVID puppy, and when the hustle and bustle of downtown San Diego came back online, it triggered significant anxiety for her. She is *not* a city dog and does not enjoy city walks. She is very sound sensitive and prefers quiet hiking trails or a big fenced in yard - and she does love dog parks! Maia’s anxiety is managed by daily medication. She is easily alarmed by sudden sounds and thrives in a slow paced environment where her nervous system can settle. While Maia is generally good with other dogs, she does best with lower energy dogs as high anxiety dogs exacerbate her own anxiety. I adopted her without being able to introduce her to my roommate’s dog first, and unfortunately, they are both anxious and it is unfortunately not working out. I am looking for her perfect home where she can thrive

Story
We adopted Bucky when he was 6 weeks old from a friend who's Aussie had accidental puppies. Bucky went to live with my now husband and his roomate for a year where there were no other dogs. We got married and Bucky moved in with two other dogs for another year. He was dominated by the other male and often played alone. He displayed agressive behavior towards any stressful situation involving barking and stress from other dogs. We moved out of that home and left the other dogs behind so he his now the only dog in the home. We had a baby and now 7 months later is suddenly displaying agressive behavior towards our baby. We believe it is too unsafe for our baby if we keep Bucky. We believe Bucky would do best with either a young couple with no children or other dogs, or a single person with no children or other dogs. He is a sweet dog when he isnt stressed by children or dogs. He loves attention and loves giving kisses. He loves hiking, playing fetch, and bones. Thank you for reading.

Story
Meet Tango! Active young Border Collie boy looking for adventure. Tango is smart, athletic, and lots of fun. He really wants a job. Perhaps that is as your trail running partner or hiking buddy. Tango would probably love to learn dog sports like agility. Tango’s recall is good, but he will thrive with additional training. His original home was in the city. He didn’t get much exercise and spent a lot of time in a crate. He struggled with some typical puppy behaviors such as jumping up, digging, and chewing. In his foster home, he has had more room to run and play with his foster’s dogs. He is playing well with all of them. He loves to play in the water. He has also been learning to leave horses alone! Tango wants to please. Will you be part of Tango’s next adventure? Breed: Border Collie Age: 9 months Weight: 42.4 lbs Gender: Male Neutered: Yes Microchipped: Yes Dog friendly: Generally good with other dogs. Cat Friendly: Yes Kid Friendly: Does well with middle school age children. Other ages unknown, but he might have too much energy for young kids.
