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
I am in a foster home and not at the shelter. If you are interested in adopting, submit an adoption questionnaire by email. Learn more hereAt 4 years old and16 pounds, this Jack Russell mix is the total package—gentle, affectionate, and full of heart. Wrigley is mellow and well-mannered, but he also loves to play. Whether it’s a game of tug-of-war, a squeaky toy chase, classic fetch, or a walk in the great outdoors, Wrigley’s tail is always wagging. He's also been friendly with other dogs at the shelter  Wrigley recently went on a field trip with a volunteer, who reported: "Wrigley had a great time exploring the Alameda waterfront. He followed his nose, taking in all the smells, yet was content to go wherever I lead him. He didn’t blink an eye at bicycles whizzing by and calmly observed passing dogs, not barking or pulling toward them even when they were rowdy. He was fascinated by the ground squirrels, though I was able to redirect him without much trouble. We took several breaks along the way to cuddle, have some treats, and take in the sights. Wrigley is a gentle and affectionate pup with the most expressive ears. He was a very good boy on our outing!" In his foster home with @adopt_oas_fosters, Wrigley has settled in beautifully. He's a quiet shadow, always nearby and always ready for snuggles. He’s smart, treat-motivated, and learns quickly. He has shown some signs of separation anxiety, so a home with people who are around a lot, or have a confident canine buddy, could be a great fit.  If you're looking for a loyal sidekick with a calm spirit and a playful heart, Wrigley might be a great match for your pack! Click here to learn how to adopt and submit your adoption questionnaire.

Cleo

Jack Russell Terrier Chihuahua

Female, Young
San Francisco, CA
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
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/ December 21, 2025, 3:38 pm

Story
If you’re looking for a peppy little brown and white pup with endearing ears that curl over his adorable little face, we have the mutt for you: Gershwin! This cute little guy will compose you symphonies in exchange for treats; he may seem shy (a genius like Gershwin takes time to write his music), he can be drawn out of his music mode with a yummy snack. Gershwin walks with a bouncy little rhythm that will have you doubting his senior status, his little paws skim lightly over the ground as he sort of floats along with the power of positivity. This sweet old boy is composing a sonata called “The Search for a Forever Home” that he’d love to share with you. Here's some notes from his foster: Gershwin is such a sweetie and a cuddle bug. He is a very active boy. He walks well on leash. Is now eating his food very well, in fact, he cleans his plate and really likes kibble. He is a strong, fast walker. He is doing well with potty training He has no problem with the car. He learned steps and is now very proficient on going up and down them. He loves other dogs and wants to be shoulder to shoulder walking with my dog and play with all the dogs he sees. He is really just wanting to play and interact with the other dogs. He has gotten my grumpy old man dog to play a little even. He is fine home alone. He does not bark but just does this whimper little whine. He has been sleeping with us in the bed, but I think he would be fine in a crate or a bed on the floor. He is pretty independent and not a total velcro dog.

Story
Lo Lo is a sweet fostered, 1-year old, Jack-a-Poo looking for a forever home. He's an energetic but affectionate little guy who loves to be around people and be the center of attention. His ideal home would be a loving and caring home where he would not be left alone at home for long periods at a time. Lo Lo enjoys walking on the leash, does well in car rides, and likes to cuddle. He is also crate-trained, fully vaccinated, neutered, and microchipped. Lo Lo would be a great addition to any loving home willing to give him the attention that he strives for. Please contact me if you have any questions or to schedule a meet and greet.

Kirby David

Fox Terrier (Wirehaired) Mixed Breed (Medium)

Male, 8 yrs
San Pablo, CA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with dogs, Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Kirby is a gorgeous 6 yo scruffy terrier mix, with the most beautiful amber eyes. He is a happy dog who loves to play with squeaky toys, take walks and relax on the couch with his favorite hoomans. He loves to dig for buried treasure and will let you dress him up in costumes for the different holidays. He is smart, walks great on a leash, is food motivated and eager to please. Kirby would make a great walking companion, but he's just as happy to lay at your feet, amuse himself with a toy or just relax until you are ready to take a break. Kirby is NOT a first time adopter dog. He needs a special and experienced adopter, preferably a female, who is patient and knowledgeable about scared, timid dogs. Kirby is nervous when meeting new people and will require multiple visits with a prospective adopter before being ready to go to a new home. However, once Kirby trusts you he is loving, affectionate and the best company. Kirby is a staff and volunteer favorite. One volunteer has called him the love of your life kind of dog. Kirby would prefer to be the only animal in the family, but we don't think that is too much to ask. He has so much love to give and will thrive in the right home! . Kirby is UTD on vaccines, microchipped and neutered. Applications are being accepted and qualified applicants will be contacted. Half of Kirby's adoption fee is sponsored by a Jelly Place's volunteer.
