Story

Meet Bunny, a delightful 5-month-old mix who looks like a blend of Rat Terrier and Italian Greyhound. True to her name, she is bouncy and sweet, but her real goal in life is to be as close to you as physically possible. She would happily live inside your purse if she could fit! Whether you are running errands or relaxing at home, Bunny will be right there with you, acting as your devoted little shadow. Despite her young age, Bunny is already ahead of the curve; she is fully housetrained and rides beautifully in the car. She is also wonderfully socialized, having previously lived with cats, dogs, and children. However, she does have a lot to say! Because she is quite vocal, she is best suited for a detached home rather than an apartment where neighbors might hear her songs. If you are looking for a loyal co-pilot who gets along with everyone, Bunny is ready to go to her forever home as soon as 12/3, the day after her spay. We are accepting applications for this girl now, so apply for her today at www.petsnpals.org! Her adoption fee is $350 and includes her spay, vaccines, and microchip. Please visit our website www.petsnpals.org to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs and cats.

Story

Ernie. Once Ernie gets to know you, he can be s weet and affectionate. He is very cautious with new people and needs slow introductions. Energy Level? Low to Medium House trained? Yes Describe how they are on a leash? Ernie walks well on a leash and is non-reactive. Describe how they are with other dogs? He generally ignores other dogs while on walks. At the shelter, he participated in playgroups and did well with other dogs. When he first arrived, he didn’t get along with the resident dog, but he’s been improving as he decompresses and relaxes. He could potentially live with other dogs with proper introductions and patience. Have they been around cats or other animals? How were they? Ignore cats we meet on walks (cats not moving); sometimes will chase a squirrel if it runs, but will continue walking easily. Commands they know? He knows how to sit and down. What are their favorite things? Cuddles, kisses, go out for walks, and all kinds of food/treats What do they need to work on? Coping with stress - meeting new people, vet visits, visitors in the home, etc How are they when left alone? How long have they been left alone? He is fine being left alone. He is calm and generally sleeps when left alone. Where do they sleep? His bed What is their ideal home? He would do best in a calm, patient home with people who understand his needs and are willing to give him the time and space to build trust and confidence. A quieter environment, with fewer visitors, would help him feel more secure as he continues to adjust. Once he feels safe, he’ll show what a genuinely wonderful, loyal boy he is. The Adoption fee is $325. For adoption consideration or to meet our dogs , please complete our online adoption application at www.everypetsdream.org/adopt . W e will have everything we need to know to call you back and set up an appointment. Follow us: Facebook and Instagram October 29, 2025, 12:19 am

Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Kobi is a super sweet guy, very loving and really smart. He is also a hugger. He is 3 years old, 17lbs, and has short legs. He catches on to what you are telling him quickly and responds pretty quickly. He gets along great with all the dogs in his foster home and settled into the pack in a week. Kobi loves to run around with the ball in the yard, sunbathe, and do the zoomies. In the house, he likes to sit next to you and keep you company wherever you are. He is a loyal little guy, and you matter most in his life. He loves to be held like a baby and will stay like that as long as you want. He is good with older dog-savvy children, but he can get annoyed if they do not leave him alone when he wants to be and will grump. He is a very good boy who has a lot to say. He is also a great watchdog. He will alert you to any noise near his home, so he would he would do better in a home vs. an apartment building. Kobi is house-trained, walks well on a leash, rides well in the car, sleeps in his own bed, or crate and loves to be covered! He mostly hangs out, and he would be a good addition to a home with another or multiple dogs. He wouldn't do well as an only dog with his parents gone all day at work, since it is clear he loves having others around. Kobi is being fostered in Santa Clara, CA. His adoption fee is $325.00 November 19, 2025, 12:42 am
