Story
Meet Trevor! This guy is our Adoption Manager's favorite and is well loved by all CASPCA staff. Trevor has a big personality that's hard to miss. If he could talk, he'd tell you that his greatest value in life is FUN! He loves nothing more than to romp around and play. He's always up to something and his goofy antics are certain to bring joy to anyone's day to day. He gets along well with other dogs that also like to be rough and tumble. Despite his goofiness, Trevor can get serious about obedience and training, especially when treats are involved. He will sit on command, walks gently on leash (unless he's excited), and responds to a firm "no" if he's being too boisterous. After a year of being in and out of the shelter, Trevor is ready to go home! Come on in to the SPCA to meet him today between 12 and 6 PM, no appointment necessary, or email us at adoptions@caspca.org for more information.

Story
Niblet is handsome, goofy, and a total sweetheart! He loves to play, go on adventures, and most of all LOVES to snuggle up on the couch!

Niblet has done well in his foster homes, and has been noted to do well with young children. He's a social butterfly who loves meeting new people and other dogs! He also is a quick learner and enjoys learning new tricks. Niblet is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. You can meet him at CASPCA every day between the hours of 12PM and 6PM.

Story
If pure joy had four legs and a tail, it would absolutely be Butter. We’re pretty sure his brain runs on “Sunshine, Lollipops & Rainbows” 24/7 — and honestly, it’s part of his charm. Butter is the definition of a happy-go-lucky dog. A little silly, a little clueless and 100% the kind of pup who wakes up every day believing something wonderful is about to happen. Butter didn’t grow up in the best circumstances, but you would never know it by the way he acts now. Since joining DDBBR at the beginning of the year, he has been nothing but a warm, golden Buttery light beaming at the chance to live free from the chain he use to be tethered to. Despite his cheerful spirit, Butter has only ever lived outdoors or in boarding — he’s never had a true family of his own. And he deserves that chance more than anything. The silver lining is that boarding has allowed us to really get to know him, and we can happily share that Butter enjoys the company of most other dogs! He’s still polishing up some of his social skills (we lovingly call him a “sweet himbo” around here), so a meet and greet with resident dogs is a must. Whoever opens their home to Butter won’t just be giving a dog a chance — they’ll be changing his entire world. And you won’t be doing it alone: DDBBR will support you 100%, including training right off the bat to set you up for success. If you’re looking for a loyal, goofy, sunshine-filled companion who will make you smile every single day… Butter is your boy.

Story
Meet Puca 🐾 Looking for a dog who’s up for whatever you’ve got planned? Morning walk? She’s ready. Weekend hike? Even better. Evening run? She can't wait. Lazy evening in a lawn chair? She’ll be there too… probably already sitting in it. Meet Puca. With her iconic ears and one of a kind personality, we know she will find her perfect forever. She’s the kind of dog who brings a happy, easygoing energy to everything she does. Yes, she loves to play, explore, and stretch her legs — but she also knows how to settle in and just hang out with her people. Puca is affectionate, goofy, and always in a good mood. She’s the dog who will make you laugh without trying and then curl up nearby like she’s been part of your routine forever. She’s also a smart cookie: she knows sit and down, is crate trained, does well going potty outside on a schedule, and genuinely enjoys learning new things. Give her something to do — a walk, a game, a little training — and she’s all in. She's eager to please and would love a forever family that can keep her mind working and enriched! She’d thrive in a home that enjoys getting out and about and just someone (or someones!) who wants a dog to share a life with. She loves other dogs, she loves her people, and she’s very ready to find a place where she belongs. We've learned so much about our sweet girl since she came into our program, and the most important is that no matter what life throws at her, she is determined to keep enjoying it. If you’re looking for a dog who can match your pace — whatever that looks like — Puca might be your girl. Submit an application today!

Story
Stella is a sweet and gentle 5-year-old Australian Cattle Dog mix with a heart as big as her soft, soulful eyes. Though she can be shy at first, once she gets to know you, Stella will shower you with love, cuddles, and plenty of sweet kisses! Stella came to us from a difficult dog-hoarding situation where she lived with over 15 other dogs. This high-stress environment left her needing time to feel safe and comfortable in new surroundings. But once she warms up, her affectionate and loyal nature truly shines. One of Stella’s favorite activities is running and playing in our Bark Park with her kennel mate, Thumper, and her buddy, Oswald. She seems to do well with other dogs but appreciates a patient introduction to let her trust and confidence grow. Stella is already spayed, fully vaccinated, microchipped, and on monthly flea, tick, and heartworm prevention, so she’s ready to go to her forever home! It’s important to note that Stella has luxating patellas (loose kneecaps) in both her back legs, a condition that may require surgery as she gets older. Stella does have an anti-inflammatory that she takes when her knees "act up." This condition may also cause arthritis to set in earlier in life. Despite this, she remains active, happy, and full of life! If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will reward your patience with endless love and devotion, Stella could be the perfect match. Come meet her today—your new best friend is waiting! 🐾 Ready to Adopt? Here's How! The first step in our adoption process is submitting an application through our website. Simply visit: https://www.hoovesandpaws.org/shelterluv.html, click on the pet’s photo to view their full bio, then click “Apply for Adoption” to get started. Please give us a few days to review your application. If approved, you’ll receive an email from adoptions@hoovesandpaws.org to schedule a meet and greet (including any necessary dog-to-dog introductions). If the meet and greet goes well and you’d like to move forward, we’ll schedule a home check—this means we’ll bring your new furry friend to your home ourselves. This helps ensure a smooth transition and gives your new pup a familiar face upon arrival. We’ll finalize the adoption at that time! Questions, comments, or concerns? Reach out to us anytime at adoptions@hoovesandpaws.org. We're here to help!

Story
Meet Greg 🐾 Greg is a 2-year-old Australian Cattle Dog x Australian Shepherd mix—and we’ve got the Embark results to prove it! This compact little guy is the perfect blend of brains, athleticism, and fun. When Greg first arrived, he was a bit shy and reserved, taking in the world at his own pace. But in just a couple of days, his true personality began to shine—and what a personality it is! He’s playful, engaging, and clearly has the drive and focus that could make him a fantastic candidate for dog sports or an active lifestyle. Greg would thrive in a home that can keep both his mind and body busy. Whether it’s hiking, training, or diving into a sport like agility or obedience, he’s ready to be your partner. He’s currently settling in nicely in his foster home and continuing to blossom each day. Greg is available for adoption through The Good Shepherd Rescue. To set up a meet and greet, an approved adoption application is required. Contact us to get your application and come meet this awesome pup—you won’t be disappointed!
