Story
Sugarplum's 7 pups were born 12/15/24. 3 males and 4 females. Pups are mellow but now walking around more and eating but too much for their current foster home to handle while they juggle their own 4 dogs and 2 cats. Mom has been moved to another foster home. Father is unknown. Meet their mom Sugarplum. Update: Susie is doing great at her home boarding/trainer home with other dogs. She loves playing with other dogs. Knows commands and very well trained. Affectionate and wants to be your BFF. Loves her hikes has great recall and daily walks. She is the last of her siblings to be adopted. She is a sweetie.YouTube: https://www.facebook.com/reel/885391464534910March 17, 2026, 12:53 am

Story
Meet Hibiscus, the female mixed breed. Hibiscus came into the Shelter as a stray so we don’t know about her past. We suspects he may have some German Short Haired Pointer and Lab in her breed mix, but it’s just a guess based off of her looks. Hibiscus has been soft and melty since her arrival at the Shelter – leaning into people and soaking up all the love she can get. Typical to her suspected breed mix – she loves to play fetch. Having a tennis ball around would be a great reinforcement for positive reinforcement training in her next home (along with treats, of course!). Hibiscus has met some dogs at the Shelter and was indifferent. We haven’t seen her necessarily play with dogs but she has coexisted after an appropriate introduction. Any resident dogs should meet at the Shelter prior to adoption. We do not have any history of Hibiscus with children or other animals. Hibiscus is available for pre-adoption. Come meet her, fall in love and take her home after her spay surgery. 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.
