Story
This big boy is friendly and full of love. Kev is always happy to see and meet new people, making friends easily. His affection and willingness to listen mean he’s by your side (sometimes even leaning or laying on you) whenever given the chance! Kev has the energy you would expect of a young GSP and will benefit from lots of running and exercise to help him burn off the energy and learn to settle. He’s been known to jump or scale a fence, so secure fencing is crucial. He is active and at times doesn’t realize his size. Once he’s settled, he’s quiet and gentle. It’s the ideal time to perfect the cues he’s learning like down, stay, and shake. Kev is looking for a home that will continue his training and exercise him well. He’ll benefit from structure and a regular routine. If you have other dogs in the home, let’s talk more about how Kev can best integrate with your crew. He is unaware of dog social cues and his play style (combined with his size) can be a bit much for some dogs! Kev is available on a foster-to-adopt basis so we can support you during the transition to your home. About Me Our adoption process begins with our adoption questionnaire: https://norcalgsprescue.org/adoption-questionnaire/ (Please note that we adopt primarily within Northern California and our minimum age for kids is 6) If you'd like to see what Kev's been up to, check out his posting in the Available Foster Dogs section: https://norcalgsprescue.org/available-dogs/. That's where you'll find all the latest info about all of our available dogs.

Story
Poppy is an adorable young pup who came into rescue with an injured leg. We didn’t know the extent of the injury – would she need surgery? Would she possibly lose the leg? Would the leg recover? Poppy had a consultation with the orthopedic surgeon, and the outlook is good! It’s the type of injury that might heal without surgery, so the plan is 6 weeks of strict rest, and then reassess. If things are on track, no surgery. If the leg is not healing properly, then we’ll move forward with surgery, which is estimated at $8,500 to $9,900, and 10 weeks of cage rest. We’ll know in early October if Poppy will need surgery. Keep your fingers and paws crossed for Poppy!

Cooper is a cute dude who is calm and fond of people and kids. His favorite things are car rides, ball-chasing, playing in the water, long walks, running around being silly, and hanging out with his people! More scoop: Cooper is housetrained and crate-trained. He knows sit, lay, stay, come, and will leave a treat on the floor until told he can have it! He may have been a hunting dog as he is very interested in birds and chickens. Cooper settles quickly and rarely barks. Cooper is ready to join an active home that will enjoy spending time with him – if that sounds like you, click on his Adopt Me button and fill out the fast and easy adoption questionnaire!

Story
Meet Stuart! This social, sweet-natured pup is a bundle of energy and charm. He’s friendly with both dogs and people, and he loves to greet everyone with enthusiasm (and a hopeful request for belly rubs). Stuart is still very much a puppy, which means he’s got a lot of learning and growing to do—but he’s making great strides! He’s working on his manners, including housetraining, crate training, and walking nicely on a leash. He already knows “sit” and his name, and he’s learning cues like “down,” “leave it,” and “come.” Stuart’s sharp little teeth have caused a few nicks in the past, but with consistent training, his mouthy tendencies are improving every day. True to his playful nature, Stuart loves squeaky toys (especially his fuzzy stuffed squirrel), bones, and running after the flirt pole. He’s happiest when he’s on the go, so he’ll thrive in an active home where he can get plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. He’d also love a playful canine sibling to romp around with! Stuart is a quiet guy who only barks when he’s really trying to tell you something. He’s curious but cautious about new things like vacuums or leaf blowers—he just stops to take it all in, then moves on. If you’re ready for a smart, energetic companion who loves car rides, long walks, and all things fun, Stuart might just be your new best friend!

Story
Meet Emmett: Your Goofy, Lovable Best Friend in the Making! If sweet and silly is your kind of vibe, Emmett might just be your dream dog! This lovable goofball is a 1-in-a-million mix of playful energy and laid-back chill. He’s happiest romping around the yard with his foster brothers (two GSPs he gets along with like a champ) or cuddling up close—so close, in fact, that he might “accidentally” bump into you while you’re moving around the house. He hasn’t mastered personal space yet, but we think it just means he really loves being by your side! What Makes Emmett Awesome: Social Superstar: Emmett adores doggy friends and thrives with a canine squad. Whether wrestling, playing tug-of-war, or just lounging together, he’s a team player.Trainable Goof: In just one week, he learned to sit and wait for his food—a sign that his food motivation makes him a training pro. He already knows “sit,” “shake,” and “come,” and he’s ready to keep learning!Easygoing Homebody: While Emmett loves outdoor adventures like yard zoomies and bird-watching, he’s also content to lounge around and relax by your feet while you work. Things to Know About Emmett: Manners in Progress: He’s working on greeting people without jumping (he’s just SO excited to meet everyone!) and learning to steer clear of household items left lying around—so far, only one guitar tuner has met its end.Food Enthusiast: Mealtime is his favorite time of day, and he’s learning to respect his foster siblings’ bowls. Feeding him separately works great while he learns.Best Fit: Emmett’s love for closeness and his goofy clumsiness might make him a better match for families without toddlers or elderly individuals who could be accidentally tripped. A home with another dog (or two!) and folks who are around often would be his dream! The Essentials: House-trained? &#226&#156&#133 No accidents, even overnight.Crate-trained? &#226&#156&#133 Sleeps soundly all night (especially if you bribe him with a Greenie!).Leash Manners? &#226&#156&#133 Pretty good.Exercise Needs? &#226&#156&#133 Daily yard play and wrestling with other dogs keep him happy, though he’d love hikes or runs too.Emmett’s foster family says, “Everyone who meets him falls in love.” If you’re ready for a cuddly, goofy, and trainable best friend, Emmett is ready for you! Could you be his forever family? &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143   Our adoption process begins with our adoption questionnaire: https://norcalgsprescue.org/adoption-questionnaire/ (Please note that we adopt primarily within Northern California and our minimum age for kids is 6) If you'd like to see what Emmett's been up to, check out his posting in the Available Foster Dogs section: https://norcalgsprescue.org/available-dogs/. That's where you'll find all the latest info about all of our available dogs.December 1, 2024, 10:19 pm

Story
Meet Kassie: Your New Best Friend! Kassie is a playful, curious, and sweet-tempered German Shorthaired Pointer who’s ready to bring energy and love to her forever home! She’s a young pup with a zest for life, always eager for a game of keep-away with her canine friends or a good chin scratch from her humans. Kassie is great with other dogs and would thrive in a home with a playful companion or an active human who works from home. She’s gentle and patient, making her a good fit for families with younger children, especially with a little training. This smart pup is learning quickly! Kassie already knows cues like “sit,” “off,” “out,” and “potty,” and she’s even practicing playing catch. Her leash manners are surprisingly good for her age—she’s a natural walker without any pulling. Kassie loves toys, especially rope ones she can tug and unravel, and she’ll keep you entertained with her antics. Kassie is making great strides with housetraining and growing her confidence around loud or unfamiliar noises. She'll blossom in a stable environment with patient, understanding adopters who can support her sensitive nature and who enjoy a Velcro dog. Kassie is content in her crate overnight and is steadily adjusting to being crated during the day. She enjoys being around her people and would love a home where she has plenty of company. Kassie settled beautifully into her foster home, balancing her energetic outdoor play with a gentle and well-mannered demeanor indoors. She loves running, wrestling, and exploring, while also respecting house rules. With each passing day, Kassie grows more confident and adventurous, showing curiosity about cats and a fascination with horses—especially on TV! Kassie’s ideal home is one that matches her active, fun-loving personality. Whether it’s long walks, games of fetch, or exploring the great outdoors, she’ll thrive with someone who enjoys keeping busy. With a little patience and a lot of love, Kassie will reward you with loyalty, laughter, and a lifetime of companionship. Are you ready to welcome this lively and loving pup into your family? Kassie is waiting to meet you!
