Story
HI - I'M MISTO! I am a young (about a year old) husky-shepherd mix rescued from a crowded California shelter not too long ago. I was terrified there -- I mean really scared. I wouldn't even come up to greet people. But after a few days out of there, my sunshine personality came out! I'm a loving, dog-friendly boy who would do well with another dog in the home, or as an only dog, too. I love to play and am happy! Change is a bit scary for me so I would do well with both a patient and active person, who could take me for walks, hikes and other outings. I have the most beautiful blue eyes, and I weigh about 50 lbs. Please email for an application! I currently need a foster or forever home.

Story
Meet Lewis, the husky Samoyed mix! Lewis came to the Shelter with his partner in crime Lavendar (who is also up for adoption). They were found by a good Samaritan in the roadway in the Santa Cruz Mountains. After their stray hold was complete and no individual came forward to reclaim them, they were evaluated for adoption. Although they came in together, Lavendar and Lewis are not required to be adopted together. But if someone is looking for a duo, they could be considered to go to a home together. Here`s what we have learned about Lewis – he is a social guy can be a little nervous at first but warms up. Lewis has been interested in interacting with primarily female dogs since his arrival at the Shelter, which may be hormonal at this time. Any resident dogs should meet at the Shelter prior to adoption. We do not have any history of Lewis with children or cats. 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.

Story
MEET TENOR & BASS! This happy and loving duo has waited much too long for a home. They are a loving, fun pair of playful dogs who need a foster or forever home! They are very affectionate toward people, and love, love, love each other. They are likely brothers, who found themselves at a crowded California shelter with no adoption interest. Fortunately they were rescued but still haven't found a home yet. They must be adopted together as they are extremely bonded. Both are almost 7 years old. Bass, the brown-and-white pup, weighs only 55 lbs., and Tenor (tan and white) weighs about 60 lbs. They are fun, active pups who love to run, play and snuggle. They would love to be adopted by someone who could take them on hikes, walks and other outings. They currently play with each other for entertainment but it'd be great for them to branch out and see the world. Bass & Tenor love to jump up and give kisses. They are not super friendly with other dogs, so should be the only dogs in the home - but they have plenty of love to give and will be grateful to whomever adopts them. If you can foster or adopt Bass & Tenor, please email for an application.

Story
Meet Milo, the sweet, shy Husky Mix with the softest soul. Milo is a 1 y/o petite husky mix with a tender heart and a silly, quirky personality. He was recently rescued from a Los Angeles shelter and is quickly showing us just how special he is: gentle, sensitive, silly, and deeply LUVing once he feels safe. Most of Milo’s confidence comes from quiet moments, cozily curling up in his crate, melting into your hand for chin rubs, or tiptoeing over with those big curious ears when he wants to check in. He does everything softly. Soft glances. Soft movements. Soft kisses. He’s the kind of dog who blossoms through trust rather than bravado. But don’t let his shyness fool you, Milo has an adorable goofy side, too. Roll-over belly displays? Check. Upside down “look at me” poses in his crate? Double check. That happy, tongue-out smile in the yard? 100% Milo. And, how could we forget his happy back swimming anytime he’s on the grass. What Milo LUVs • His crate is his safe haven • Gentle affection, especially chin scratches • The outdoors: exploring, sniffing, and taking in the world at his own pace • Calm people (and dogs) who move slowly and speak kindly • Earning soft praise and building trust, step-by-step Milo would thrive with • A patient adopter who understands shy pups • A quiet or moderately calm home, he’s probably not a city dog • Someone who finds joy in small wins and “I trust you” moments • A backyard or safe outdoor space to explore (he LUVs nature time) • Possibly a friendly, calm/balanced dog furiend (not required, but helpful) Why Milo Is So Special He’s that once-in-a-lifetime kind of gentle LUV. The kind of dog who greets you with soft eyes. The kind of dog who stays close once he knows you’re his person. The kind of dog who transforms from shy to joyful right in front of you, and lets you witness every beautiful step. If you’re looking for a tender-hearted companion who will LUV you deeply, Milo is your boy. He’s ready for a furever home where he can feel safe, adored, and understood. Ready to fall in LUV? Milo is ready to start his new chapter. Could that chapter be with you? Fill out an application at muttluvrescue.org to start the beginning of your beautiful story with Milo! All Mutt Luv Rescue pups receive a full health checkup, heartworm and parasite testing, are fully vaccinated, microchipped, and spayed/neutered before adoption.

These pups are in Santa Cruz, California too!

Story
Oversized teddy bear seeks snuggle partner. Cuddly, smart, and eager to please, swipe right if you can handle this high energy heart with a soft side. Hatchi’s story is heartbreaking — he came into the shelter with his brother, but when their owner returned, they only took his brother… leaving Hatchi behind in a high-kill shelter. He soon found himself on the euthanasia list. Hatchi is now in a loving foster home and is looking for his forever home where he can feel safe, loved, and supported again. Hatchi does require eye drops daily for the remainder of his life. In our dream world, Hatchi would find a human that would help him feel confident and secure in a FINALLY stable environnment.

Meet Lavender, the malamute mix! Lavender came to the Shelter with her partner in crime Lewis (who is also up for adoption). They were found by a good Samaritan in the roadway in the Santa Cruz Mountains. After their stray hold was complete and no individual came forward to reclaim them, they were evaluated for adoption. Although they came in together, Lavender and Lewis are not required to be adopted together. But if someone is looking for a duo, they could be considered to go to a home together. Here`s what we have learned about Lavender – she is a social gal who is quiet and attentive. She has met some dogs at the Shelter and seems to need a slow, thoughtful introduction when meeting dogs. After meeting another dog-savvy female husky, she was able to coexist in the exercise yards with her and hang out. Any resident dogs should meet at the Shelter prior to adoption. We do not have any history of Lavender with children or cats. 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!
