Story
Marlow is a good friendly dog. She has problems with being bored and being left alone. She tends to escape when left alone. I think some small training would help her and a great loving family, with a lot of time and space would be perfect. Unfortunately, I am relocating and cannot have a big dog, like her. She is 1 years old (11/12/2024). Great around dogs and kids (5 years old+).

Story
Courtesy Post – Rehoming Needed This dog is not at the shelter. Meet Polo – a playful and spirited 8-month-old male Alaskan Malamute (white). &#226&#156&#148&#239&#184&#143 Spayed/Neutered: No &#226&#156&#148&#239&#184&#143 Vaccines: Not current &#226&#156&#148&#239&#184&#143 Potty trained: No &#226&#156&#148&#239&#184&#143 Crate trained: No Polo has been with his family for about 3 months. Due to housing challenges, they are no longer able to keep him. As a young Malamute, Polo is full of energy and still learning his manners. He is friendly with children, excitable with visitors, and loves to play. His owner notes that he has shown snapping when boundaries aren’t clear, so he will need an experienced adopter committed to training, socialization, and structure as he matures. Polo has not yet learned consistent potty training or crate training, so his new home should be prepared to continue his basic training and guide him as he grows. With time, patience, and activity, Polo has the potential to be a loyal and loving companion. If you are interested in adopting Polo, please contact his owner, Keanu, directly: Phone: (916) 308-3699 Email: keanu.salahuddin@gmail.com All animals are up-to-date on vaccinations (including rabies if over 4 months old), microchipped, and spayed or neutered. All dogs have been been vaccinated with DHPP and Bordatella (kennel cough) and heartworm tested negative (if over 6 months).    All cats have been vaccinated with FVRCP and current on flea control.

Story
"Jake" is an approx 5-yo, well-over 100-lb neutered male Malamute (??) mix who is simply the sweetest, most mellow, gentle giant you'd ever want to meet! Jake is vaccinated and microchipped. I've never been so stumped on a dog's primary breed as I am with Jake. Though the shelter he came from (Merced County animal shelter) listed Jake as a Malamute mix, I'm not sure that's his primary breed. He does have a deep chest, extraordinarily thick coat and short, perky ears like a Malamute. However, he does not have a Malamute's characteristic curled tail, and his sabled coloring is very different from a Malamute. Nonetheless, we have to pick a primary breed to describe Jake, so for now it's Malamute. Jake is surely one of the friendliest dogs you'll ever meet. He not only loves meeting new people, he is immediately affectionate with whoever shows him affection. Though I have not observed Jake with children, I wouldn't hesitate placing him in a home with even toddlers; he is just that gentle. Jake is fantastic with the other dogs at GSRSV's rescue ranch. He loves to chase one of my more active dogs in play, and has never even been close to a fight. I'm sure that Jake would be good w/ small dogs and likely cats as well. Jake is completely housetrained. He alternates between hanging out on the front porch and inside the house (via a dog door). He's not a very active dog; he pretty much lays around most of the day. When I walked Jake at Southside Park in Sacramento after receiving him from the transporter, he did great on leash. (I haven't had him on leash since.) Jake LOVES to go for rides in a vehicle. I haven't seen Jake play with toys nor swim in the pond here. While Jake is healthy in general, his hips are not good. He walks and runs with a somewhat stiff gait, and came to GSRSV's rescue ranch acting like a much older dog--likely due to his overweight condition and the 3 1/2 months he had spent at the Merced County Animal Shelter with little exercise. I immediately put Jake on a crash diet, and let the freedom of 45 acres to romp on and several other dogs to play with work their magic. Jake is way more mobile now than when he first came to GSRSV, but he will never be a long-distance hiker. I give Jake both a high-quality glucosamine/chondroitin/MSM supplement daily, as well as CBD oil. I also give him a two 81 mg safety-coated aspirin daily. I will recommend that his adopter continue with these supplements. It will also be extremely important for whoever adopts Jake to exercise him regularly and often to keep his joints from becoming overly stiff and to minimize his calorie intake, as Jake has a very slow metabolism. Jake LOVES to eat! GRSRV rescued Jake in January 2025. His adoption fee is $250.
