Story
Poppy is a gorgeous spayed female shar-pei that is looking for her forever home. Originally from a shelter, she is looking for a home with an experienced shar pei (or similar breed) owner. Poppy needs a strong owner that will take the pack leader role. Poppy has had professional training and knows sit, stay, recall, heel, place (for her dog bed) and more. Poppy would do best in a home that embraces crate training or is willing to use a crate for limited situations (initial transition to home, strangers or workmen in home, etc). Training session(s) with her trainer are available for her new adoptive family. Poppy also appears to be fine with cats. She is healthy, is on no medications or special foods. She walks very well on a leash, is housetrained, microchipped, and is up to date on vaccines. She loves to give kisses, seeks out attention and generally is a great dog! She would love a yard, is up for long walks or hikes! Poppy came in with another dog and does best with submissive or neutral dogs. She isnt a fan of dogs running up on her and barking at her. She loves rules and boundaries and does best with them. Oh, did we mention she is quite the looker, too??? She is fostering just outside San Francisco area. A reduced adoption fee may be available thanks to a grant.October 3, 2023, 1:49 pm

Story
Ralph was found as a stray and no one came for him. So Pei People exited him from the shelter and is getting him ready for his new life. Ralph is 45 pounds, has some skin issues we are working on clearing up and he is now neutered has had entropion eyelid surgery. Ralph rides well in a car (he will lick your windows, so free interior car wash...you've been warned) and is sweet with people and other dogs. He isn't a fan of crates (he will bite at the bars), but he hasn't been destructive at all in his foster home. Ralph is fostering in a Sacramento suburb.October 3, 2023, 1:49 pm

Story
MEET MISSY - Missy is an adorable little Sharpei mix with the temperament of a sloth. Missy came to us with some health issues that have been treated by our vet and resolved. Missy would love parents but has expressed her preference to be an only child. She’s ok with chill dogs like herself but not energetic dogs, she doesn’t appear to care about cats one way or the other. She is pretty funny with her antics, she loves to bury her entire body under the blankets and likes to occasionally sun bathe on the porch. She is very particular about where she does her business outside and moseys right back in the house when finished. Missy would be a great companion for someone that wants a wrinkled little couch potato buddy. Shes approximately 4-5 years old and about 40 lbs, kind of a small girl. She’s very loving and grumbles when she’s having a conversation with you. Missy is not a fan of small children, they make her very nervous, though she is in love with our teen granddaughters. Missy can be trusted to be alone in the house unless you have candy or sweets laying around. I’ve never met a dog that loves jelly beans and junk food like this girl - so heads up on that. She is eating Purina pro plan chicken and rice (since we won’t give her a diet of junk food- lol) and we give her wet food in each meal which is the most excited you will see her. Missy is spayed, vaccinated and Microchipped. If you believe Missy is your love match please send some information about yourselves and how Missy would spend her days with you along with a request for an adoption application to gooddogk9rescue@yahoo.com Thank you, Good Dog K9 Rescue Inc.

Story
At this time we are asking for adopters to be in the Sacramento and IMMEDIATE surrounding areas(meaning you must live in Sacramento County, parts of Placer county or in parts of El Dorado county.) What is your name? Gigi Are you a girl or a boy? A very cute girl! How old are you? About 2 years old What breed are you? I am a bulldog mix. How much do you weigh? 26 pounds of cuteness. What do you look like? I am petite and stocky with short legs, gray and white fur, and a little crooked nubby tail. What do you like to eat? I like to eat everything! I eat my kibble and I love treats. I love fruits and vegetables too! What kind of personality do you have? If I were a sauce I would be Siracha. I am spicy and oh so sweet! I can be pushy, but I am learning commands like sit, stay, leave it, and also where my “spot” is. I am very trainable! I have no knowledge of personal space. I am very happy and social. I love people and absolutely love to cuddle! I am playful but also lazy and love to lay on your lap and nap while you are watching TV. Sometimes at night I get really feisty and do zoomies and will try to pounce on you, almost like I am a cat! When this happens, a toy will distract me and keep me busy. Want to play tug?? Describe your perfect day: My perfect day is spent with you! I wake up, do a big stretch and immediately want to have breakfast. I run right into the kitchen even before I have gone potty. I then go potty and have a short walk outside. I like to go on walks but not too far since my legs are so short. I love going for car rides more then walks so a car ride somewhere would make me really happy. Then home to relax and take a nap. I love to lay on you or sit on your lap while you are on the couch. I then would love to play with some toys, maybe tug on a rope. After play time, I am usually asleep and snoring by 8pm. What is your favorite toy? I love Kong toys filled with treats or Benebone or Nylabone. I love playing tug with rope toys. Playing tug is my absolute favorite game. Do you know any tricks? I know how to sit, leave it, and go to my “spot”. I am still working on some other training commands. What scares you? Sometimes loud noises if I hear them when I am out walking. Have you been around children? Do you like them? I have been around older children and I love them very much. No children under 13 please. I can be rough and mouthy when playing with toys. Also, sometimes when I do my zoomies I get a little crazy and will pounce on you. This would not be good for a small child. Do you like cats? No thanks, I’ll pass. How do you feel about other dogs? I need to be an only dog. I am queen of my castle! All the love is mine! If you could be anywhere in the world, where would it be? Right next to you! And also in the car would be great! I love car rides. How is your health? My health is great! Who do you live with in your foster home and who is your closest companion? I live with my foster mom and her teen daughter. I think I like my foster mom the best because she feeds me and I am a total foodie! Where do you hang out when you are home alone? I stay in my crate when I am home alone. Nobody wants me chewing a shoe ok? Where do you sleep? I sleep in a soft cozy bed inside of my crate. Do you like walking on a leash? I do like walking on a leash but I don’t like walking very far. My legs are very short! Do you have any "not-so-great" habits that we should know about? For instance, do you bark or dig in the yard? I like to attack the vacuum when it turns on. I also love to get into the bathroom trash, dumpster dive! Not sure if it is a bad habit since I can’t help it, but I snore really loud! It’s actually cute if you ask me. Are you house trained? (Meaning do you go potty outside) I am housetrained. Do you like water? I tolerate it for my bath and will go outside to potty in the rain but it is not my favorite. I am heavy and have very short legs so I probably wouldn’t be able to swim. No pools please! What do you love about your foster family? They give me so much love and attention. I am not sure if I ever had that much love before. They make me a part of everything and I feel so special. And of course they give me treats and toys to play with!! What was your life like before being brought into NorCal Bully Breed Rescue? I was found as a stray and ended up in the shelter. No one came for me. That’s all in the past now….. ***Gigi’s ADOPTION FEE IS $300*** If you are interested in Gigi please jump on our website and fill out an adoption application - www.norcalbullybreedrescue.org For more information on what that means and why that is, please click on the following link: https://www.facebook.com/333019703483910/posts/3264412130344638/?extid=0&d=nThank you so much in advance for understanding!!!
