Story
Have you always wanted a chill sidekick? One that would be just as happy to binge that newest netflix show as he would be to go on a relaxing hike. Mellow is that guy, he lives up to his name. At 3 years old, he`s perfected the puppy eyes and the attention grabbing behavior. His size shouldn`t be a deterrant, the bigger the body the bigger the heart. We think he`d do best in a home with teens and up, his size and his enthusiasm for `his` items. This hunk of love prefers people to toys, but perhaps that`s just because he hasn`t found the right one.

Story
Shepherd / Pitbull Mix Age: 1 yr old Female, Spayed 40 lbs Adoption Fee: $125 (includes spay/neuter, microchip, vaccinations) Mandy was brought to a local ER vet after being hit by a car, then transferred to the Stockton shelter. No one claimed her, so the shelter asked us to pull her and provide medical care. She had a fractured hip and leg. FHO surgery was performed and the leg was splinted. She is all healed. Mandy loves and is very playful with other dogs, she is bonded with the foster’s pitbull mix. Smaller dogs can be intimidated by her playful energy. However, with people she was very reactive to strangers that she met. The foster has been working on socializing her in different settings (dog park, vet’s office, etc). Mandy does very well with a handler that is calm and confident when working with her. Mandy would do well in a home with another playful active dog her size or bigger. She also needs an experienced adopter that radiates confident / pack leader vibes. Please note that we don’t adopt any of our dogs out to homes with children under the age of 13.

Story
Pitbull Mix Age: 2-3 yrs old Male, Neutered 50 lbs Click here for Adoption Application Adoption Fee: $125 (includes spay/neuter, microchip, vaccinations) Grady (a.k.a. “Bear”) came to foster care from the Stockton animal shelter with a plea to save this wonderful dog. Grady likely was hit by a car and was limping around for an estimated month prior to being picked up by animal control. He had a broken pelvis and needed FHO surgery. He was probably in a lot of pain for two months, if not more. Despite his pain, Grady was labeled a “staff favorite” at the shelter due to his sweet demeanor and love of affection from his human friends there taking care of him. This information led him to being saved by a willing foster with pittie experience and Nobody’s Perfekt Rescue. Grady was pulled out of the shelter, just in the nick of time. Once in foster care, Grady took a couple of weeks to get used to the house dog. He was in pain, in a crate and in an unfamiliar place, so slow introductions were needed. After about two weeks, he and the house dog, a female pittie named Ruby, became best friends and love play. Grady would love to have a friend to play with in a home but could likely also be the only dog. Grady would be best suited for a dog friend similar in size and gets along well with female dogs. Grady needs slow and proper introductions to another dog through crate or area rotation. On leash, he can be leash reactive when around other big dogs that he does not know. He walks well on leash otherwise but is still limping on his rear left leg. Grady is a cuddle-lovebug with a very cute little underbite and has the face of a baby bear, hence his nickname. He loves every human he has met so far and loves sleeping in his foster mom’s lap. Grady loves to melt into your arms or lap and hang out on the couch and loves affection. He’s an easy dog to handle and listens well. He knows how to sit, wait and probably shake, but loses balance when he tries, due to his rear leg. Grady will alert when someone is at the front door and barks at leaf blowers and loud equipment. He will need regular attention and training but responds well to treats and food. He should also be fed separately from any other dog in the house, as most dogs do when food is present. Grady sleeps through the night in his crate and is house-potty trained. He knows how to use a doggie door and uses it regularly in his foster home. Any home would be lucky to have Grady-Bear and he would make a wonderful addition to any household. Please note that we don’t adopt any of our dogs out to homes with children under the age of 13. For more information about Grady, contact: nobodysperfektdogs@gmail.com

Meet Abby, the epitome of love and loyalty. This sweet girl has known the warmth of a loving family, complete with children, another dog, and even a furry feline friend.

Her gentle nature and affectionate demeanor make her a favorite among everyone she meets. Whether she's playing with her canine pals, cuddling up with a feline friend, or showering affection on her human companions, Abby's capacity for love knows no bounds.While Abby does have some skin issues that require chronic management, they are currently under control, thanks to the diligent care of shelter staff. With continued love and support, Abby is sure to thrive in a forever home where she can continue to receive the care she deserves.Abby recently went on a field trip and the foster had this to say: "She had a smile and tail wags for anyone who glanced her way. She charmed a group of teenage girls who all spent a few minutes giving her love. She strikes me as the kind of girl who would be happy with a few short walks around the block throughout the day and then just want to cuddle on the couch with her fam the rest of the time. Abby is a gentle & loving girl and would be a great dog for someone who needs a low maintenance super cuddler. I got 100 kisses before we even left the parking lot." If you're searching for a loyal and devoted companion to join your family, look no further than Abby. Come meet this wonderful dog today and discover the endless love and joy she has to offer.
