Story
We have recently moved from Las Vegas NV into a fraction of the size of a home (work relocation). This move was unforeseen when I got Dojo. With a tiny house and now my 5mo old granddaughter (my son and wife) moving in with me as well, Dojo needs a lot of space and undivided attention. I love him soooo much and I’m heartbroken to have to let him go but because I love him so much, I want him to have what he needs. Dojo is a Great Danoodle (Great Dane/Goldendoodle) birthdate is 4/16/25 he’s almost 9 months old and about 80+ lbs. He is all up to date on his shots (vet records and rabies tag). Dojo is VERY sweet, loves people. He knows basic commands. Jumping up however is a work in progress. He needs continued training and a lot of exercise. He walks well with other dogs, he only barks a bit at dogs he doesn’t know but it’s not aggression, just that he doesn’t know them. I prefer for him to be placed with a family that has a LARGE yard and children 6 up given his size and puppy energy.

Story
I'm a puppy with big paws, a soft heart, and lots of growing left to do. I'm still figuring out the world one sniff at a time, learning new things every day, and perfecting my nap schedule in between adventures. I love exploring, playing, and making people smile just by being my goofy, curious self. I may be named Bunny, but I hop you're ready for lots of tail wags, zoomies, and hare-raising levels of cuteness. I'm all ears when treats are involved, quick to bounce into mischief, and always down to hop into a cuddle. With some puppy training, I'll always be your favorite Bunny, no carrots required. Great addition to any large breed puppy appropriate home! Primary Color: Tan Weight: 15 Age: 0yrs 3mths 2wks

Story
Who has 4 paws and is a good boy? Guinness!! This guy is looking for his forever family to enjoy life with as much as he does. Its impossible to not smile when you see those big ears and happy face come running to you! Guinness doesn't just love people he loves making new friends with every dog he meets. (No cats for this boy, though!) He is a social butterfly. This boy is happy, loving, energetic, and always ready for a play date or an adventure. Turn in an application today and come get one of Guinness hugs. A volunteer had this to say, "Guinness is a very sweet boy who is not fully aware of his size and strength.He needs a little training to learn not to jump up and/or pull on his leash, but at heart is a goofball gentle giant."

These pups are in San Jose, California too!

Story
Meet Cash!Cash is a big, energetic goofball with a heart that’s bigger than his wiggle. Once he warms up, he’s an affectionate, people-loving dog who leans in for pets and happily accepts handling all over—ears, paws, and everything in between. He can be a little serious at first, but give him a moment and you’ll see his sweet, affiliative side shine.Personality & MannerismsCash is wiggly, expressive, and full of enthusiasm. He shows his excitement with a loose body, happy bouncing, and the occasional enthusiastic mouthiness when playing. He loves attention but also has a bit of an independent streak—he’ll check in with you, then head back out to investigate the world. Think “adventurer who still wants a cuddle break.”Training & HandlingCash knows sit, shake, down, and his name, and he takes treats gently (jerky is a favorite!). He’s very tolerant of handling and does great for vet care and vaccinations—even if he needs an extra set of hands because he just can’t stop wiggling. He leans into his people for affection and clearly enjoys being loved on.Leash SkillsCash is easy to leash and eager to get moving—but fair warning: he’s strong and still working on his leash manners. He pulls and can be very focused on his surroundings, so a confident handler and some continued leash training will help him shine. He may benefit from regular potty walks, as he happily relieves himself while out and about.Dog Social SkillsCash enjoys playful, physical dog interactions and does best with dogs who match his energy and play style. He’s been successful in dog-to-dog play with a playful adult husky, engaging in mutual face and neck mouthing and settling into off-leash play after a few minutes. Because he can play rough and be mouthy, he’d thrive with tolerant, social canine friends and supervised play.Cash would love an active home that can give him structure, enrichment, and outlets for his energy. Continued training, fun adventures, and maybe a playful dog buddy would help him be his best self.If you’re looking for a fun-loving, affectionate dog who’s ready to learn and live life full throttle, Cash might just be your perfect match

Story
Let me introduce you to Cleo, our sweet, soulful Great Pyrenees mix who weighs about 70 pounds. She’s not just a pretty face (though her big brown eyes will melt you); she’s also incredibly smart. She watches everything and picks up on new things quickly—she already knows how to sit, stay, lay down, and “leave it,” and she’s learning more in doggie school every week. Cleo is potty trained and a great passenger in the car. At night, she sleeps soundly on our bed, curled up like she owns the place—and honestly, we don’t mind one bit. We haven’t tried her in a crate since the one we have is too small for her, but she’s been just fine without it. She loves chasing squirrels and once lunged at a neighbor’s cat—she thought it was just another squirrel in disguise—so a cat-free home is definitely best for her. She enjoys playing with other big dogs, but she’d also be perfectly content as the only dog in the house, soaking up all the love. At training, she’s been around small dogs and done well, but since everyone is on a leash there, we can’t say for sure how she’d be in an off-leash setting. She’s up to date on all her shots, and her spay is scheduled for the end of September. Cleo is one of the gentlest, most loving dogs we’ve ever had the joy of knowing. She’s not big on licking faces, but every now and then, she’ll surprise you with a kiss. She really is something special.
