Story
**COURTESY REHOMING POST** Toa is not a CACC dog. We have not met him nor evaluated him and can't attest to his health or temperament. Please use the contact information listed to reach out and learn more. Tao, a part of our CACC Courtesy Rehoming Program, is a 2-year-9-month-old pup looking for a special kind of home—one filled with patience, understanding, and a heart willing to help him feel safe. Though he was loved by his previous family, they could no longer care for him, and he now needs someone who truly understands very shy dogs.Tao is naturally cautious around new people and situations. When he feels overwhelmed or insecure, he may react defensively, so he needs a steady, experienced person who can recognize his boundaries and gently guide him toward confidence. Tao may not be the kind of dog who thrives in every situation, but he is the kind of dog who will deeply bond with the right person. If you have the experience and heart to help this little soul find security and love, Tao is waiting for you. For more information on Tao, please email glxssy.naia@gmail.com

Story
Don't blink, you might miss this gentle little ghost of love. Peek a Boo may have a little trouble seeing the world clearly, but she feels every bit of kindness around her. With vision that's more "abstract art" than HD, she moves through life at her own pace: slow strolls, soft landings, and lots of lounging. Patience is the key to her heart, and once you unlock it? You’ve got a snugglebug for life. Sweet, serene, and surprisingly sassy when the mood hits, she's the perfect companion for anyone who appreciates the quieter things in life. Here's some notes from her foster: Peek A Boo is as sweet as they come! She is an easy-going, loving, and mellow gal. She does great with my two pups and doesn't have any aggression. She will only sometimes bark if she sees a dog when out on a walk, but quickly moves on. She needs to lose a fair amount of weight, so we have been doing short strolls which she really enjoys. She isn't able to keep up with my two pups, so I put her in a stroller for part of the way and she does great with it. She is unable to do stairs and has a hard time with curbs, so she'll need to be picked up or carried. Peek A Boo continues to work on solidifying her potty training. I let her out every few hours. However, she is able to hold it overnight. In fact, she sleeps in until I get up in the morning! If I have to leave for a few hours I keep her in a pop-up playpen- she doesn't have any accidents in there. Then once I get home I let her out right away. I don't have a yard, but when I brought her to my mom's house she loved the backyard. We left the door open, and she let herself out when she needed to potty. So while a backyard isn't necessary, it would definitely be a bonus! Peek A Boo loves a good squeaky toy, she is so cute when she plays with them! When I am doing work on my computer, she happily relaxes in her bed. When she’s not napping, she likes to follow me from room to room to see what I’m up to, look for something to rummage through, and supervise me while I’m in the kitchen. She does great when I have to leave- I watch her on my doggie cam and she is calm and doesn't make a peep. She also does great in the car. One of my favorite things she does is whenever she sees her reflection in a mirror or glass, she stops to look at herself. It is so silly and precious! I absolutely adore Peek A Boo and she deserves all of the pampering and love in the world.

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 hereThis dog is available to meet by appointment only.  Millie is a 4-year-old, 10-pound Maltese mix who’s looking for a calm, loving home where she can feel safe and understood. Life hasn’t always been easy for this sensitive girl, and she needs time and space to build trust—but for someone patient and experienced with shy, defensive pups, Millie has so much love to give. In her foster home, Millie has been slowly coming out of her shell. She enjoys spending time with other small dogs, walks politely on leash, and is starting to show interest in toys. She's mostly house trained, uses pee pads, and loves her meals—especially when there’s cheese involved. Millie has a skin condition (pyoderma) that requires regular medicated baths and vet follow-up, and she’s been a great sport about it once she feels secure. She’s looking for an adult-only home with an adopter who understands that trust is earned, not rushed. With time, patience, and a gentle routine, Millie will blossom into a loyal, loving companion. If you believe in the beauty of a slow-growing bond, Millie is waiting for you! Click here to learn how to adopt and submit your adoption questionnaire.May 5, 2025, 12:39 pm
