Not good with cats,

Story

Meet Don & Julio! 🐾🐾 Don and Julio came to us together from the Merced shelter and are hoping to find a home, whether together or seperately. These two are easygoing, low-energy companions who enjoy a calm, relaxed lifestyle and being close to their people. They are family friendly, affectionate, and motivated by love and attention. Don and Julio do well with gentle corrections and can be left alone for up to 4–6 hours, making them a great fit for a home with a steady routine. They would do best in a cat-free home, where they can continue to settle in and enjoy the comfort of being together. If you’re looking for a sweet, mellow duo to share your life with, Don and Julio could be the perfect match. 💙

Winnie (the Pooh) was rescued from a crowded shelter. He was nervous very matted and dirty when first found in the streets. After a week he warmed up. Shelter staff were able to shave off mats and bathed him. He enjoyed laps and gave kisses. Plays with toys. Was good with other dogs. Now happy and playful meeting another dog out of the shelter. He is now relaxing at his loving foster home with another dog. So far he is very friendly and sweet. He will be groomed soon to even out body coat paws and trim his face. Once he is healthy he will be neutered. More photo and info to come from his foster home. He is a sweetie. 12/31/25 Update from foster home: Winnie is still working on potty training (very normal for young small dogs). He may mark which is being managed with a belly band and is expected to improve significantly once neutered. Great with dogs — playful respectful and socially savvy Playful around cats Gentle and affectionate — not aggressive not nippy Quiet for a small dog — not a big barkerEnjoys being held and cuddling on your lap Confident in the home with no disruptive behaviors Crate trained at night — sleeps through without accidents Smart curious playful and eager to learn Loves playtime walks and exploring.January 3, 2026, 1:57 pm
