Story
Poppy Seed is a sweet, smart, athletic girl who's a little shy with strangers at first, but given space, time, and a few treats, she'll warm up to you soon enough.   She's a wonderful communicator and will offer a soft growl when she needs space, which is just her polite way of asking for a minute. Once she's warmed up to you at her own pace, she's all in. Affectionate, playful, and convinced she deserves a seat at the dinner table. She already knows "sit," is learning "down," gives the gentlest "paw," walks great on leash, and loves her crate as a cozy, safe space.   Poppy will do best in a home with older kids or adults who are committed to teaching her simple and useful cues and life skills throughforce-free, positive-reinforcement training methods. Training is not just for her. It's for humans too. Using positive reinforcement and force-free methods, you'll build real trust together, and she'll learn that responding to your cues is rewarding and fun.    Pair that with the right enrichment, snuffle mats, food puzzles, and scent games where she sniffs out hidden treats, and you've got a recipe for a confident, calmer pup. All that sniffing and foraging settles her nerves, every little win boosts her confidence, and problem-solving alongside you deepens your bond. She's an athletic adventure buddy who loves romping with other dogs, playing fetch, and then happily curls up for snuggles afterward. She'll bark at odd sounds like any good watchdog, but settles right back down once you've checked it out. If you're looking for a thoughtful, loving companion who'll grow more confident with you by her side, Poppy Seed is your girl.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Snuggly young girl! Meet Maple – The Petite Queen of Training Class! At 2 years old and 48 pounds, Maple is a compact pittie powerhouse with a heart just as big as her personality. This smart, soulful girl has been absolutely thriving in her foster home—and especially in training class, which is hands-down the highlight of her week! Maple lives for learning. She lights up when it’s time to work and loves showing off all the skills she’s mastered. She’s bright, eager, and incredibly tuned in to her people. With guidance and consistency, Maple truly shines. A Star Student Maple has been putting in the work and it shows! She enjoys structure and does best with a clear, consistent schedule. She looks to her humans for direction and feels most confident when they advocate for her—especially when new people or dogs are approaching. She’ll thrive with adopters who: Appreciate a smart, trainable dog Can continue reinforcing her training Provide calm, confident leadership Help her navigate new situations at her pace Training isn’t just something Maple does—it’s something she loves. It’s a wonderful bonding experience for her and her person. Snuggles, Stuffy Toys & Squirrel Patrol When she’s off duty, Miss Maple is all about the cozy life. She adores snuggling with her humans, happily curls up after a day of activity, and takes her stuffed toys very seriously. Neighborhood walks are another favorite pastime—though she’s quite certain she can catch any squirrel in her path if given the opportunity! She’s affectionate, loyal, and deeply devoted to her people. Just see how much on her IG posts @meyas_mutts! Her Ideal Home Maple is not usually dog-reactive out and about, but she is dog selective and will need a careful introduction and time to acclimate to living with another large breed dog. She does best with slow, thoughtful introductions to new people and dogs and appreciates when her family helps manage those interactions. Her perfect match will: Be an adult-only or older-teen household Be committed to continued training and structure Understand that slow introductions set her up for success Want a loving, loyal companion who forms a deep bond A Note about Adoption Events: While Maple loves to meet new folks one on one, Adoption Events can be too chaotic and unpredictable for this sensitive girl. Filling out an adoption application is the very best way to learn all about and meet Miss Maple. Ready to let Maple rule your heart?

Story
Nala has come to be with us by way of my sister. Nala was 8 weeks when she was left to my sister from her friend. Unfortunately my sister is disabled with the use of only one leg and cannot care for Nala the way she needs. Our home has multiple small dogs that are not compatible with Nala's breed. In the few days I have come to know Nala she has been such a good dog.There is nothing more I would like than for her to find a loving and caring home. Nala is 1yr and 6 months, very gentle and just longs to be loved.

Sol has been with us for about 3 years but unfortunately has been abandoned by her real owner and left to us. we’ve tried our best to take care of her but we don’t have the resources, time, or support that she needs. she’s recently had babies so right now she’s a bit stressed and behavioral. usually she’s a very sweet girl and will want to be with you 24/7. She desperately needs a new home and family. she loves to eat and is very energetic. i hope someone can adopt her

Story
Arya is the sweetest dog. We hate to have to rehome her but we intend to relocate overseas in the next 12-18 months. We’re listing in advance so we find the perfect new home for her. We are open to families who want to try having her home for some days before deciding. We also want to highlight that after rehoming if for whatever reason the family doesn’t want to keep her, we’ll take her back right away. Arya is house trained, she lounges at home and has a very calm temperament. She is very easy to take care. She doesn’t like car rides, she doesn’t play well with other dogs, but she is very sweet with humans. We have little kids at home and she’s extremely patient with them. In all the years we’ve had her not once has she attacked or bitten another human. Arya was born on April 8th 2020 at saving grace rescue in North Carolina. She is spayed. If it weren’t for our relocation we would not give her up.

These pups are in Milpitas, California too!

Story
I have two dogs that need to be rehomed while I deal with my personal medical situation and will be unable to care for them (Two profiles). The are both good dogs and although I would want them to be rehomed together, I may be put in a situation where they will be rehomed separately. Both dogs has just had their annual vet appointment and their shots are up to date. If possible I would like to still be able to have visits with both of my dogs if/when they are rehomed. (Pictures will be available soon) Bulla: Is a very hyper and active six year old English bulldog who needs an adopter/home to be very loving and attentive to his needs. He loves attention, loves engaging with new people, and loves to play. Bulla has lost a lot of hair on both of his sides and his back area which could be hormonal according to latest check up Please contact me for additional questions
