Story
Adopted Ginger from local shelter when she was 5 years old and she has been a loving, sweet pet. She needs lots of affection and attention and is very protective of her human. She is older but is still very playful loves to run around and loves to track scents. She is very healthy. She gets a little anxious with sudden noises. She loves cuddling but also loves chasing or hiding her toys or chasing laser light. Unfortunately multiple changes within family has made it increasingly difficult and now impossible to keep her.

Story
I adopted Coco when she was 2 in San Francisco and we've been family ever since. Unfortunately, my work schedule doesn't allow me to give her the proper love and attention she needs. She's an energetic loving pup. She needs a home that can provide her with consistency and tons of affection! She's full of personality and loves to cuddle.

Story
Rocky is a beautiful active dog who needs wide open spaces with other large dogs and an experienced trainer. This dog is probably smarter and stronger than you! But he will excel at agility. He loves kids but is currently too boisterous around small kids, and in particular, my 12 pound dog. Rocky is a Lapponian Herder and has longer hair that is quite sheddy. He has strong herding instincts. He is also a cuddly silly boy, is happily crate and house trained. He needs to work on leash manners. Unfortunately I have a new job that is 25% travel and he is not living his best life in our small house.

Story
Ruby is an energetic, loving, friendly pup. She loves to run and cuddle. She is house-broken but still has the occasional pee accident. My husband and son are both allergic to her and we have had some landlord issues as well. We love her to death but unfortunately we cannot keep her. She loves to chew things and loves her squeaky toys. Fetch and “tug” are her two favorite games. She would love a large, open yard where she can run around. She has had her shots, but her last round was missed due to a family medical emergency, we were unable to get her in. It would be best for her to restart her vaccines. We will provide her crates and her favorite toys. Please reach out with any questions or interest!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Rex is looking for his forever home. He was surrendered at just a mere 8 months old to One Dog at a Time ODAAT because of his severe separation anxiety. He was born in February 2018 and is a Husky, Terrier mix. A lot of people might have given up on Rex. He is deaf, suffered from severe separation anxiety, and had no training whatsoever. But the people at ODAAT believed he'd be a perfect candidate for their training partnership with a local prison, Rockview. Rex learned great basic commands while staying at the prison and a couple of really special ones. He is no longer in the program and is ready for his forever home. Because Rex is deaf, we truly feel he would require another pup to be able to live life to the fullest. Older children only. Rex is protective of his people. He is committed through and through with the person he bonds with. He will require a special family to be able to bring him to his full potential. Rex will not be able to be a social butterfly. If you're looking for a dog that will be a great companion, this is your boy! His best friends are Deitz, Vader and Dugan, three of our ODAAT rescue pups. So if you are in the market for an awesome pair, trio, or quad group... just let us know! Applications can be found at  www.onedogatatime.us.   Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.May 3, 2024, 10:54 pm
