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. 💙

Story
Lucky is a darling boy who is guessed to be a shih tzu/lhasa apso type mix. He is about 17lbs and thought to be around 9yrs old, however acts much younger! Lucky was found in poor condition. He was malnourished and appeared to have been suffering from a flea allergy which caused inflamed skin and missing coat on half his body. In just a few weeks of proper care and good nutrition, he is already looking so much better. His coat will continue to grow, and we know that will make him even cuter! He can be scared/nervous when adjusting to a new environment, so his adoptive home will have to have a little patience. After a few days, he shows his sweet and happy personality. Lucky's ideal home would be: * Experienced dog owners * No kids (or kids over 15) * A yard (however an apartment might be ok depending on the situation) * Must be within an hour of Sacramento Here are notes from his fostermom: This sweet boy is looking for a calm, loving home where he can feel safe and appreciated. Lucky does best with *older children* who can respect his space—he’s a gentle soul who just needs understanding and patience. Lucky is a total sweetheart who loves to cuddle and stay close to his humans. He enjoys playing with toys and is learning how to interact with other dogs; he may bark to get their attention, but he’s making progress every day! He’s *crate trained*, *potty trained*, and will bark or gently paw at you when he needs to go outside. Lucky also knows how to use a doggy door. He absolutely loves going on walks and greeting new people along the way. Lucky would thrive in a home with another *low- to mid-energy dog* or as the *only pet*. With love and stability, this affectionate boy will make a wonderful companion. If you’re looking for a loyal, cuddly friend who just wants to be near you, Lucky might be your perfect match! Please email right away if you would like to learn more about this dog......and visit our website www.siarescuers.org to learn more about our rescue group. Adoption fees range from $350-$475 for dogs. THE DOGS SHOWN ON THE SITE ARE IN FOSTERCARE - WE DO NOT HAVE A SHELTER TO VISIT. EMAIL is the best way to reach us. We are a volunteer run, very small organization - so please be patient when waiting for a response, but feel free to check back in if you haven't heard from us in a day or so - thank you so much for considering a rescued pooch!

Story
Meet Gigi, our senior sweetheart with a show-stopping underbite and a heart to match. This charming lady may be a little timid when you first meet her, but give her a moment (and a few gentle pets) and she’ll melt right into you. Once Gigi knows she’s safe, her sweet, affectionate side shines; she loves cozy cuddles, soft blankets, and quiet companionship. Gigi is the kind of dog who enjoys life at a relaxed pace, soaking up love and returning it tenfold. Her expressive face and adorable smile will steal your heart before you even realize it’s gone. She’s perfect for someone who appreciates a calm, loyal friend and understands that the best relationships are worth waiting for. If you’re looking for a gentle soul to share peaceful moments and lots of love, Gigi is ready to be your girl! Here's some notes from her foster: I've spent 2 wonderful days with Gigi. She warms up quickly and is the sweetest cuddle bug with the cutest underbite. She likes to go on walks and is definitely more spry than other seniors. She has not gone up or down the stairs but I imagine she could. She enjoys walking with my dog (a shih tzu mix) but they mainly keep to themselves. She's had no issues peeing outside and I believe she is fully potty trained but I'm still trying to learn her schedule. She doesn't shed at all and she loves her food.

Story
Maggie is a very calm, sweet dog. I took her from a previous owner that had her for 11 yrs. She was given up as far as I know bec she was getting in her way if doing things. Maggie as I found out has abandonment issues. She has anxiety and always needs a companion. She’s scared of thunder and loud noise. She’ll be content just laying right beside or on your lap. I have a hard time leaving her for work. She panicks when nobody’s around esp the person that she’s used to. No other behavior problems, just really needs someone with her to make her feel secure. She’s a really good dog but I really hate doing this to her everytime I work. Her previous owner who had her for 11 yrs is retired, so they must’ve been together all the time. I hope to find someone who could really be a good fit for Maggie . She’s good with car and even plane ride.
