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
Looking for a safe and loving home for Pancakes. We’ve been fostering her for the last two months, in hopes to find her forever home. She’s a Bull Mastiff/German Shepherd mix. Shes a highly trainable breed and a loving girl. Ideally, I would love to keep her but I don’t have the right home or time to provide for her. She’s very sweet, learns fast, but needs that babying as shes still in the puppy stage.

Story
Meet Rainbow, the Anatolian mix! He is friendly and loves being pet! He is also eager to interact and play with other dogs. He has even spent time in a foster home and loved to play with five other dogs! A home with another dog would likely enrich Rainbow’s day to day with play. A volunteer who has taken Rainbow on day trips reports that during time in her house, he would always pottys outside.. so he has a good basis for being house trained! Rainbow has gone on outings to the beach and hikes and LOVES IT! He walks nicely on leash, is curious, and up to join in on any and all adventures!Rainbow has quite a fan base here at the Shelter. Here are his reviews from volunteers:`For me, the sweetest thing about Rainbow is he really likes to lean into physical contact against a leg when being petted.` -Jed`When it comes to playtime in the enrichment yard, he lightens up my heart!` -Jutta`I love the way he unabashedly leans into you like he has known you his whole life. So goofy and eager to please.` -Madeleine`Setting aside his puppy energy, he is calm, even-keeled, and good natured.` -Dave`I love his seemingly endless energy for toys and balls. Even with all of htat, he has a loving tender side and is always down for a good cuddle.` -RobRainbow`s adoption fee has been sponsored by a generous Good Samaritan! The Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter Foundation is now offering “Pawsitivity Bucks” with every dog adoption. This $200 training voucher is a way for newly adopted canines and their guardians to connect with local positive reinforcement based behavior consultants and get their relationship started off on the right paw!Please note: Our Santa Cruz location’s Shelter hours are 11-6pm, 7 days a week! Although clients can walk through and see any animals in their kennels during open hours, we end “meet and greets” (aka meeting an animal out of the kennel) at 4:30pm every day. If you’d like to meet an animal out of the kennel, please arrive before 4:00pm to allow for time to discuss individual animals and meet them.
