Good with dogs, Not good with cats,

Story

Meet Ruffles and Pringle 🐾🐾 Ruffles and Pringle are two lively, high-energy sisters with big personalities, each looking for her own forever home. These fun-loving girls thrive in an active household and would do best with dog-savvy children ages 10 and up since they can be jumpy and mouthy. They are high energy pups who love to play, but they need slow, careful introductions to other dogs and are not good with cats. On leash, they can be jumpy and sometimes pull, so consistent training and guidance will help them shine. While they came in together, Ruffles and Pringle do not need to be adopted together, and each is ready to find a home where she can get the attention and care she deserves. With the right family, either girl will bring joy, laughter, and companionship for years to come. 🐶💛

Kirby David

Fox Terrier (Wirehaired) Mixed Breed (Medium)

Male, 8 yrs 1 mo

San Pablo, CA

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Not good with dogs, Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Kirby is a gorgeous 6 yo scruffy terrier mix, with the most beautiful amber eyes. He is a happy dog who loves to play with squeaky toys, take walks and relax on the couch with his favorite hoomans. He loves to dig for buried treasure and will let you dress him up in costumes for the different holidays. He is smart, walks great on a leash, is food motivated and eager to please. Kirby would make a great walking companion, but he's just as happy to lay at your feet, amuse himself with a toy or just relax until you are ready to take a break. Kirby is NOT a first time adopter dog. He needs a special and experienced adopter, preferably a female, who is patient and knowledgeable about scared, timid dogs. Kirby is nervous when meeting new people and will require multiple visits with a prospective adopter before being ready to go to a new home. However, once Kirby trusts you he is loving, affectionate and the best company. Kirby is a staff and volunteer favorite. One volunteer has called him the love of your life kind of dog. Kirby would prefer to be the only animal in the family, but we don't think that is too much to ask. He has so much love to give and will thrive in the right home! . Kirby is UTD on vaccines, microchipped and neutered. Applications are being accepted and qualified applicants will be contacted. Half of Kirby's adoption fee is sponsored by a Jelly Place's volunteer.

Little Dog

Fox Terrier (Wirehaired) Maltese

Female, Young

Benicia, CA

Size

Details

Good with kids, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Hello! I am looking for experienced adopter for an adorable dog. She was abandoned and had been running the streets for weeks before we were able to catch her. She is warming up to people and is now trusting them. She has shown no aggression at all, ever. She is learning how to walk on a leash but still needs more training with it. She does not go to the bathroom inside. We take her out multiple times a day on leash and she does her business then. I do not think she can roam free in a yard yet, as I think she may still try and run, because she is used to being a stray and running off. This is where the adopters will need to focus their efforts. This is the only behavioral "issue" I have seen. She has only barked at one large dog but does not bark at my dog or my cats. She seems uninterested in them or wants to play. She loves my son and is a huge cuddle bug. She will make the perfect family member for someone. She is the sweetest and just wants to be loved and give love back.

Rex

Fox Terrier (Wirehaired)

Male, 4 yrs 7 mos

Sonoma, CA

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Rex is a 4-year-old wirehair terrier who came to us from a heartbreaking hoarding case in the Central Valley. Despite his past, Rex’s true terrier spirit shines through—he’s energetic, determined, and full of personality. True to his wirehair terrier roots, Rex is smart, bold, and independent. He likes to know what’s going on and isn’t afraid to voice his opinions. He can be a bit stubborn at times (classic terrier!), but that determination also means he’s engaged, alert, and deeply loyal once he bonds with you. With patience and consistency, Rex is a truly lovable companion who thrives on structure and routine. Rex would do best in an adult-only home, and this is actually a huge plus for him. Without the unpredictability of children, Rex can fully relax, settle in, and build a strong, trusting bond with his person. He’s the kind of dog who will flourish in a calm, confident household where his boundaries are respected and his personality is appreciated. He’s best suited for someone who understands terriers—or is excited to learn—and who enjoys an active, interactive dog with character. Rex isn’t looking for chaos; he’s looking for his person, a home where he can feel safe, understood, and loved. If you’re seeking a loyal sidekick with spunk, intelligence, and a big heart beneath that wiry coat, Rex might just be your perfect match. 💛

Story

Is it a coincidence that you`re looking at this dog right now or is it Kismet? This sweet 3-year-old from Tulare County is a recent mom who did a wonderful job raising her five puppies and now she`s ready for a home of her own. Kismet is still adjusting to life on her own and the world can be quite loud and overwhelming for a small town gal. She`s looking for a quiet home that`s willing to take things slowly with her as she learns how to trust people and the world around her. She doesn`t need much for someone to be in her inner circle, though - just a calm place and a lap she can call her own. Once you`re in her inner circle, it`s lap time and snuggles galore! Looking for a work from home buddy or a dog to spend a cozy movie night with? Come on into our adoption center, or, click the ‘How to Adopt Me’ button to learn about virtual matchmaking appointments. Once you bring Kismet home, you`ll spend every day with her knowing that it was, well, Kismet!

Cleo

Jack Russell Terrier Chihuahua

Female, Young

San Francisco, CA

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Cleo is a one-eyed wonder and has completely forgotten about losing an eye in a dog attack. Agile and athletic, Cleo is a 12 lb., 2 yr-old Terrier mix and displays Terrier behavior such as loving to play with toys, loving to go for long walks and is inquisitive about anything new in her world. Cleo came from a situation where she was under-socialized and displays fearful behavior. We are working on behavior training and she is becoming much calmer. Little Cleo is potty trained with regular potty breaks. Cleo is a one or 2 person dog, and makes friends with new people very slowly. She lives OK with a companion dog, and an ocassiional dog visitor, but we think she would prefer to be an only dog in her future home. Due to her young age and training, Cleo will age into a proper little companion. Grateful Dogs Rescue incurs substantial veterinary and other expenses in rescuing our dogs. In order to recoup some of these costs, we request a tax-deductible donation for each adoption. The suggested donation for Cleo is $300. If you are interested in adopting Cleo, please complete our online adoption application at https://www.gratefuldogsrescue.org/adoption-process/ . One of our volunteers will get back to you. Adoptions are local, confined to the SF Bay Area. See our other available dogs at https://www.gratefuldogsrescue.org/available-dogs/ December 21, 2025, 3:38 pm

Story

Bugsy is a great buddy to have around. He is about 18 lbs and around 6- 7 years old. He enjoys going on walks and loves to wander around in the yard in his wheels or scooting along, play with his toys, happy all snuggled up with his people, and just hanging around. Bugsy loves the toys at his foster home and doesn’t mind sharing them. He is the sweetest and most loving guy you will ever meet. He has been around all sizes and breeds of dogs and gets along great with them He enjoys the company of other dogs but he would be just as happy to be an only dog if his person was around most of the time to keep him company. If not then he needs a canine companion for company. Bugsy is very affectionate but doesn’t require a ton of attention to be content. He is pretty low-maintenance and will happily follow your lead. Bugsy doesn’t use his back legs but do not be fooled since he is still an active guy and can go many places with his wheels or rear harness. He is very good around young kids and lives with one now. Bugsy is exceptionally loving and eager to please. He knows what he is being told and if you are looking for a smarty to be part of your family he is the guy. He will bring lots of warmth and terrier-silliness to your home. Give him a chance and he will steal your heart. Bugsy also needs a new foster home if not adopted. He is now being fostered in Belmont, CA and his adoption fee is $275. Arrangements to meet our dogs occur after an application has been received. Please contact us at dogzonerescue@yahoo.com for more information about this great guy or for an application to adopt.
