Story
HI - I'M GOOSE! I'm a young (1-2) black lab-flat coat retriever-shepherd mix in need of a foster or forever home! (Shelter says I'm 3 but I act like a 1-year-old puppy even in the way I walk.) I was rescued from a crowded California shelter along with my brother Rooster, a flat-coat retriever, who also needs a home. We do not have to be adopted together. I am good with other dogs and a lovebug with people. I'm basically a happy boy who would love my own home where I can be walked, petted, taken on outings or road trips and given the love and attention I so deserve. I weigh about 50-55 lbs. I'm currently still in Southern California, but can be transported to you in Northern Cal. Please email for an application.

Story
Rex, neutered male, 2 year 6 months, 31-Lbs. If you would like to give REX a forever home, please contact abetterchancerescue@gmail.com OR log onto abetterchancerescue.org to fill out online application About Rex: Rex is a handsome young pup with pleasant personality, he is mellow and friendly by nature. He adapted and thrived quickly in foster care. Being friendly, affectionate, and aimed to please, he can easily befriend strangers and kids; also gets along well with dogs and cats as well. His favorite pastime is hanging out with doggie play pals in the park, car riding and his daily walks. Rex would be a great candidate for any type of family who is looking for a loyal and loving companion pet. Rex’s rescue story: Rex has been wandering in a park for a while before a dog lover noticed him then gave him food. The dog lover is an expatriate in Taiwan who already has dogs at home therefore has no space for Rex. All she can do is to offer food and find support to help Rex. We responded to the request and take Rex into our adoption program. We suppose that Rex used to be a family dog since he is very close to humans, but unfortunately got abandoned. Rex was placed with a foster home after a complete health check. Rex received a clean bill of health and is patiently waiting for his 2nd chance to join his forever home.

About Rose’s rescue: Rose and her three siblings were found cuddling in a box set at the corner of a rundown shed in the suburb. Facing the imminent storm, the rescuer had no choice but to take the pups in and find sheltering homes for them. Rose is full of curiosity and is easy to approach with food. She is friendly and follows command well. She can be easily recalled when running in the park. Rose will be a wonderful companion to a dog loving family!

Odie’s rescue story: On her way to work, the volunteer spotted little Odie roaming on the roadside a couple times. It was freezing cold in the mountains in January and food was hard to come by. There is no sight of this young puppy’s mother around the area, so the volunteer decided to settle this friendly little guy into foster home.
