Story
Claire is a sweet Heeler-terrier mix,with a heart full of love. She is shy around new people and dogs, but once she feels safe, she opens up beautifully and blossoms into a loyal, affectionate companion.  Claire is a smart girl who already walks well on leash and is food motivated, ready to learn lots more! She's excitable and is learning to settle nicely in her wonderful foster home for plenty of cuddles. She does extremely well with mental stimulation, routine and regular activity. Her new home should be patient and ready to continue her training. With time, she will be a wonderful companion in an adult-only home to go on hikes, play fetch, and play with other dogs! Claire is full of beans and ready for a forever home that will include her in all their activities and adventures. If that sounds like you, apply today to meet her!

Story
Tommy is such a cute, yet naughty boy. He is dog friendly and playful. This little boy is adorable and he is a project dog, not one for a busy household as he takes time to trust new people. Once he knows you he is a lover boy - but he is selective and it can take time. Tommy can be wary of strangers and does have some ankle biting in his past....Tommy is better suited for country living away from the random public and well meaning admirers. For more information on Tommy please call 707-459-4900.

Story
Meet Kip: a 5yo neutered male Australian Kelpie / Jack Russell based in Alameda, CA. He's sweet, friendly, and he's on Instagram: (@san_fran_kips_co) Why rehoming? Our family is relocating to Australia. Bringing a dog into Australia requires 180+ days of preparation — more than our timeline allows. We explored every option and are heartbroken, but Kip deserves a stable, loving home. What Kip needs - A fenced yard and regular exercise. He's a sensitive soul — loud noises (buses, skateboards, hair dryers) overwhelm him, so a quieter environment is ideal. He's a real tail-chaser when stimulated. Best suited to adults or calm households with older, dog-savvy kids. Friendly with all humans; mixed with other dogs, especially on-leash. Health: Fully house-trained, vaccinations and rabies titre up to date. Adoption: No fee — donations to a rescue group welcomed If your home could be the right fit, please reach out. He truly is a lovely guy.

Story
Cleo is a one-eyed wonder and has completely forgotten about losing an eye in a dog attack.  Agile and athletic, Cleo is a 12 lb., 2 yr-old Terrier mix and displays Terrier behavior such as loving to play with toys, loving to go for long walks and is inquisitive about anything new in her world. Cleo came from a situation where she was under-socialized and displays fearful behavior. We are working on behavior training and she is becoming much calmer.  Little Cleo is potty trained with regular potty breaks.   Cleo is a one or 2 person dog, and makes friends with new people very slowly. She lives OK with a companion dog, and an ocassiional dog visitor, but we think she would prefer to be an only dog in her future home. Due to her young age and training, Cleo will age into a proper little companion. Grateful Dogs Rescue incurs substantial veterinary and other expenses in rescuing our dogs. In order to recoup some of these costs, we request a tax-deductible donation for each adoption. The suggested donation for Cleo is $300. If you are interested in adopting Cleo, please complete our online adoption application at https://www.gratefuldogsrescue.org/adoption-process/ . One of our volunteers will get back to you. Adoptions are local, confined to the SF Bay Area. See our other available dogs at  https://www.gratefuldogsrescue.org/available-dogs/ March 7, 2026, 12:47 pm

Story
Shortly after his arrival at Muttville, canine kissing booth Cork joined the local welcoming committee. He’s the youthful Jack Russell chi mix with lots of leg, pageboy ears, and the markings of a Guernsey cow. Hard to miss and even harder to quit once you get a dose of his gentle sweetness and shy enthusiasm. A friend of dogs and a superfan of humans, he doesn’t jump up as much as insinuates himself, drawing the ear scritches, pets and snuggles he craves. He offers the aforementioned kisses and well-mannered adoration in return. He’s got plenty of energy and is sure to have even more when he gains a few pounds. Looking for a polite sweetie pie who’s going to love your cooking? Cork is the guy. (Bonus: He counts opening a can or bag as cooking.) Here's some notes from his foster: Cork has been very well-mannered in the home—calm, not reactive to noises, and he never barks. He prefers to sleep independently and is most comfortable settling in the living room on his own. He also doesn’t tend to explore the house much and is very respectful of his space. He’s incredibly affectionate and loves cuddling on the couch. He’ll happily spend most of the day snoozing by your side. He politely asks to come up on the couch rather than jumping up on his own. He has a great appetite and has been enjoying his well-portioned meals, as we’re working on helping him gain a bit of weight. Cork is fully potty trained and enjoys going on walks. We typically aim for potty breaks at most every four hours. On walks, he can be quite alert.
