Koala is ready to shower you and any canine friends she meets equally with affection and playtime, and she would love to end each day with a long cuddle session with you.

Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Birdie is a cuddly ~8 year old bulldog we’ve had the pleasure of loving for the last 5 years. We never could have imagined our time together would end like this like this but shes struggled to acclimate since we had a baby. it’s clear her best life is no longer with us. She is not aggressive, but she’s too agitated. We adopted her from a shelter after a breeder surrendered her. Since joining our family she’s been sweet and affectionate with no resource guarding nor fear of humans. She’s a 55-pound lap dog, whose preferred life would be snuggling up next to you on the couch, something that has filled us with joy for years. Since she does not get along well with other dogs, it’d be best if she was the only animal. Similarly, a house without small children. She’ll make it worth your while. This dog will literally hug you back. She’s overall a very healthy bulldog, spayed up-to-date on all her shots. She only takes a daily pill to manage skin allergies common to the breed.

Story
Her name is Winter- 4 year old dog, weighing about 40 pounds, who has been living in an urban environment in San Francisco for the last year. In this setting, she displays a lot of anxiety and reactivity toward strangers, neighboring residents, and other dogs. Her behavior has escalated to unpredictable reactivity which includes barking, lunging, and two biting incidents that were level zero to one. We, the current owners are fully occupied, and are first time dog owners who are completely overwhelmed by her complex needs. We want to secure her future with an experienced foster or rescue and avoid animal control taking her.Winter is a sweet dog with us, but the urban 'stranger danger' is more than we can safely manage as first-time owners. We believe she would thrive in a more structured, low-traffic environment under your guidance. We are happy to transport her to you and provide any supplies or sponsorship needed to secure her spot.

Story
Energetic, loving, and goofy 9-year-old Ella is super sweet but needs a family with an experienced dog owner. A little under 2ft tall and 40 lbs, she's sleek and muscular. Ella is fully house-trained and very patient with the three cats she lives with. She's never lived with kids but is generally chill with the children in the neighborhood. 
 She loves her toys, playing fetch, tug of war games, following you around the house, and of course, napping. Ella wants to be involved in whatever you're doing and is alert to someone coming to the door. She is highly food motivated, Ella picks up new tricks quickly but can be stubborn and easily distracted, so she needs lots of consistent positive reinforcement to maintain behavioral changes. She has many opinions and she will let you know about them. 
 Ella also plays well with other dogs, although sometimes she has issues with dogs larger than she is, but is good at de-escalating potential conflicts. Ella really loves company so if her new people are gone for a full work day she will need a canine companion. She's leash trained and always excited to jump in the car to visit the park. Ella is a great dog looking for a home where she is loved and cherished. Would you be the one for her?" Ella is now being fostered in Oakland, CA and her adoption fee is $275.00 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 gal or for an application to adopt.
