Story
First pic is him now, Aug 23, 2026. The pic of him sitting and so very thin is from June 15, 2026. Meet Martini! Martini is a sweet boy who has come a long way since the beginning of his journey. His early life was rough. He spent time in homeless camps, was crated for much of the day, and struggled with malnutrition related to medical issues. But Martini is proving what a little love, stability, and good care can do! Since coming into foster care, Martini has thrived, gaining almost 10 pounds, getting neutered, and discovering what it feels like to a cherished member of a family. He now lives with two super-chill dogs who have welcomed him into their pack. He has discovered that toys are pretty amazing, and there are plenty to choose from! He also lives with a cat who has made it very clear who runs the house. Martini enjoys going for walks and loves riding in the car. He can get very excited when he sees other dogs or people, so he is still working on learning that he doesn't have to greet everyone he sees. In the car, he likes to let people know when they come too close by barking at them—he takes his job as passenger/security officer very seriously! At home, Martini loves to chill on the furniture, relax, and enjoy the comforts he missed out on earlier in life. He is currently being hand-fed and is comfortable around children. Martini is still learning and will need a patient adopter who understands that he has had a lot of changes in his life and may need continued guidance and reassurance. But watching him blossom has been incredibly rewarding. He is discovering toys, walks, car rides, comfy furniture, canine friends, and—most importantly—what it means to be safe and loved. Martini's story is just getting started, and he is ready for his forever family. Interested in meeting Martini?

Story
Meet Mallory! Mallory is the dog version of a sprite. She is always happy and excited about life! She will self pacify with her toys, she goes out on a skateboard run daily for 45 minutes (pulls the rider, foster's neighbor) and is very athletic. Mallory's play style is rough, so not all dogs appreciate her energy, but she does very well with like minded dogs. She is fine spending the day at home, excited to see you when you get home and just wants to sit on your lap (she does need to learn about personal space) and watch tv in the evenings. She is high energy when needed but is happy as long as she is with her person. Mallory is a Stanislaus Shelter Survivor. We made contact with her original owners and know a lot about her background. She was an adorable puppy. You can see the love in her eyes. Interested in meeting Mallory?

Story
Noah needs a hero. A quiet home with a patient guardian. Noah is a save from Bradshaw! His only issue was his stranger danger with men. He loves other dogs and toys/play. He is about 1.5 years old (a/o May 2013). Noah had severe stranger danger and mostly to men. Clearly he has suffered at the hands of a man. Noah is very smart and high energy. He loves to play fetch, chase toys and hang from his tree toys. He has made tremendous progress with his current foster and loves his dad. He uses play to build trust. So playing with him is the first step. Once he trusts you, you are in. He is the highest jumper we have ever seen but he has not tried to escape. If he is to be kenneled at any point it should be a covered kennel or he needs to be supervised. But he has never escaped to date. Or really tried to, that we've noticed. Noah loves other dogs. That is his strongest and best trait. He can be in any situation, even a pack of dogs ( play group) and he excels. He loves to play. Play is his love language. Because of Noah's stranger danger he has not been exposed to children. So he does have special needs. As until he really trusts you , he should not be introduced to new people. Once that bond is built he will learn to trust, the progress should be consistent and slow. We can share ways to introduce Noah to new people. But it is stressful for him. Especially if they are men. So a quiet, not too busy with traffic home, would be best. The perfect home for Noah would be one with a large yard, where he can run. He was on a farm with horses, donkeys, llamas and he was curious but pretty indifferent. The fences need to be fairly high and if there are some trees to hang some toys from , he will keep himself busy for days. Lots of ball play. He does not need to go anywhere. He can be a home dog. He will need slow introductions to people and always done the same way so he knows what to expect or just put him in his crate when you have company. He is crate trained and if he has some toys he will just hang out. He deserves a home of his own. He has been in boarding , where he learned to trust strangers, but is now in a foster home and we have learned so much about him. He loves the people he trusts. He is a special case and honestly is what rescue is about. A special dog that is worked with so he gets a second chance. Take a chance on this boy. Noah needs a hero. He is not the easiest dog but he is worth the effort. Interested in meeting Noah?
