Story
**Meet Buttercup Saturday, May 17th from 10 to 1 at Dublin Petsmart west, 6960 Amador Plaza Rd.** Adorable, 11-week-old, female Shepherd mix, Buttercup, is doing very well at her foster home with her sibling, Bubbles. The puppies are being socialized and are learning the daily routine. They are playful, super cute and all-around, very nice pups. Buttercup is more on the mellow side while Bubbles tends to be athletic. They are still very young but we anticipate that they will be medium to large size adults. The puppies get along nicely but we recommend they go to individual homes. Having experience with Shepherd type breeds and providing a yard and ongoing training is recommended for each puppy. ## See video of Buttercup and Bubbles at the end of the photo gallery! ## If you're interested in Buttercup, you can submit an application by clicking the "Apply For Adoption box " located below her photos on the right side.

Dutch Shepherd Australian Cattle Dog

Female, 1 yr 1 mo
Pleasanton, CA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats,
Story
Meet Kinzie — the shelter life is so last season for this smart, spunky girl! Thanks to her rescue heroes at CBR, Kinzie is living her best life and soaking up every second. She’s a total brainiac — seriously, after just one training session, she’s basically ready to teach the class! Her leash manners are on point, she's a crate queen, and she's fully potty trained (gold star, Kinzie!). She’s an outdoor enthusiast at heart and would thrive in a home that loves to walk, run, hike, or just generally chase adventure. At first, Kinzie might play a little hard to get with new humans — but show her a treat and you’ll be BFFs in no time. She’s all about her people, fiercely loyal, and will do just about anything for a little love and scritches. She’s currently polishing up her manners (specifically her “four paws on the floor” skills), so she’d do best in a home with adults or older kiddos. If you're looking for a sweet, affectionate, adventure-loving sidekick, Kinzie is your girl! Ready to fall in love?
