Story
We rescued Astro from the Milpitas humane society some time last year when he was just a puppy. Astro is a roller coaster of fun and learning experiences. He is a very good boy indoors with all kinds of tricks up his sleeve wether its setting up between your legs ready to walk with you through the busy streets or keeping eye contact till he gets his treat! If you want a lil challenge in your life come say hi! Unfortunately we don’t have enough time on our hands to spend with Astro due to something that’s been taking most of our time and we’ve noticed it’s been affecting Astro slowly but surely. We want him to have the freedom and the attention any dog deserves like long walks outside so he can get used to the world , he can be a little rowdy when we are on walks such as when he notices something in the distance and he’s adamant on figuring out what it is or when he sees another dog . Astro is coachable and he is friendly after the first interaction!

Story
12/22/25 16:32 Shiloh has strong barrier aggression while in shelter. He had a bonded chihuahua that a rescue took several weeks ago, but he has had experience with small dogs and would likley do well again. Shiloh has poor kennel presence and this has increased his length of stay. Needs rescue. 12/03/25What did we do on today’s adventure:I’m always excited to get out of my small kennel. It has been lonely since Squishy, my bonded furry friend got rescued without me. This time I sensed adventure as I am being fitted with harness! I let many human friends try to adjust my harness and in return got treats! I quickly jumped into the car when the back door opened and although I was nervous and anxious during the ride, I welcomed sunshine and crisp cold air when I arrived at the park! I saw a few squirrels and wanted to give chase but my human told me that they are friends and I left them alone. I was so overwhelmed by the new environment that I nervously reacted when I saw cyclists zooming towards me. Runners jogging towards me made menervous as well as I felt they were going to chase me. My human friend noticed this and helped me get pass my big emotions by distracting me or asking the other humans and dogs to give me plenty of space to pass safely. Other than that, I am an adventurer! I loved going down to the cold streams and licking the fresh dew off the green grass. A couple of human friends who walked pass me commented that I was a very cute dog! I wish I could’ve shown them my skills at catching treats thrown mid air and my powerful snuggles! We completed nearly 5 miles of trail adventures and I wish I could go for more soon.What should potential adopters know about me:Shiloh needs help regulating his big feelings when encountering dogs on leash or fast moving (runners, joggers, cyclists) objects. He would strive with calm environment and patience from his people as he learns to feel safe. He was found as stray with a bonded chihuahua who left the shelter so he would benefit from love, patience and structure from experienced dog owners who is willing to work with him.Three words to describe me:Playful, intense, loving

Story
11/30/25 07:37Meet Toast, a labrador mix who`s always eager to greet new friends with a wagging tail and bright eyes. He’s incredibly friendly with people and loves nothing more than being part of the action.This handsome boy is full of life and would thrive in an active home where he can stretch his legs, explore the outdoors, and burn off his big Labrador energy. Whether it’s a hike, a jog, or an enthusiastic game of fetch, Toast is all in! His treat motivation makes him a wonderful training partner—he’s smart, eager to please, and ready to learn all the good-dog skills you’d like to teach him.At the shelter, Toast has shown himself to be social with other dogs, enjoying playtime and friendly interactions. He gets very excited during active moments, but one of his most endearing qualities is how he settles into calm companionship once he gets his energy out! Give him a soft spot to curl up and a human nearby, and he’s content!Toast has shown some prey drive toward cats, so he’ll need a home committed to managing that behavior—ideally one without feline friends or with a family experienced in safe, structured introductions and training.If you’re looking for a loyal, joyful, and affectionate companion who’s as ready for adventure as he is for quiet snuggles, Toast might just be your perfect match. He’s waiting patiently to love—and be loved—by his new family.

Story
12/03/25What did we do on today’s adventure:Dottie was shy but very sweet when her adventure buddy picked her up. On the way to Hellyer County Park, she was calm and rode beautifully in the car, lying down in the back seat and patiently awaiting her morning adventure. Once they arrived, Dottie immediately began to explore, curious about all the different sounds around her. What really caught her attention were the squirrels! She walks beautifully on a leash, but when she spotted a squirrel, her buddy had to hold on a little tighter—she was captivated! Although Dottie enjoyed the occasional treat during her adventure. She preferred to keep exploring and listening to all the amazing sounds. She wasn’t fazed by bike riders (even electric ones),fishermen, joggers, or walkers along the way. When she saw other dogs, she was excited in a friendly way but maintained a cool, calm demeanor the entire morning. Dottie completed a 4-mile walk all around Hellyer Park. Afterward, she was super cuddly and wanted all the love and pets from her buddy—an absolute sweetheart! On the way back, she was treated to a well-deserved pup cup from Starbucks. Dottie did excellent on her first Tails & Trails adventure!What potential adopters should know:Dottie is the perfect mix of sweet and adventurous. She loves cuddles and attention, making her an affectionate companion. Curious and inquisitive, Dottie enjoys exploring new environments and listening to all the fascinating sounds around her. She’s calm and well-mannered—rides beautifully in the car andwalks nicely on a leash. Dottie is also friendly with others, handling encounters with joggers, bikers, and other dogs like a pro while staying cool and composed. If you’re looking for a loving, active pup who’s ready for adventures and snuggles, Dottie is your girl.Three words to describe me:Curious, Calm and Sweet

Story
Millie is a rescue we got for my father in law after his wife passed. She is a super sweet Great Dane/ black lab mix who has been house trained and an inside dog for four years. She is very affectionate and playful and loves to either lay on the couch with you or play fetch in the backyard. She does okay with dogs and kids as long as they don’t hurt her. She has never bit anyone or other dogs. We were told that she was born with a neurological disorder and has a small divot on top of her head, but the only thing out of place about her is that she hardly ever turns left. I’m dead serious, she goes out of her way to just turn right, even if she has to do a circle which we find very cute. She’s an amazing dog and the only we can’t keep her is because my father in law was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and can no longer take care of her.

Story
Meet Ace! Ace is a 10-year-old Labrador Retriever mix with a heart full of love. He has a gentle temperament and is wonderful with children, making him a perfect family dog. Ace is the kind of companion who’s always happy to see you—his tail wags nonstop when you walk through the door. He loves to cuddle and soak up affection, and he’ll gladly curl up beside you after a long day. We’ve had Ace as part of our family for many years, and he’s been a loyal, loving presence throughout. With two young kids and allergies in the household, we aren’t able to give Ace and Maya the attention they deserve. We’re hoping to find a caring home for Ace—either on his own or together with Maya. Ace is a sweet, affectionate dog who thrives on companionship and love. He’ll bring joy, comfort, and plenty of cuddles to his new family.

Story
Meet Scout & Stella! Scout’s a gentle, slightly introverted 5-year-old Golden Retriever. She can be a little timid in new environments, but with her trusted person by her side, she’s perfectly happy and relaxed. She enjoys familiar routines and environments. She also has a best friend/sister, Stella, a 4-year-old Golden who’s playful, outgoing, and full of energy. Because the dogs share a very close bond, our priority is to place them together in the same home. However, we understand that every family’s situation is different and are open to considering a trial arrangement where one dog joins the home initially, as long as the ultimate goal and plan prioritize their stability and happiness.
