Story
We’ve had Herbie a couple of weeks and don’t think it’s a match. He’s about 2, according to the vet but likely younger. We think he’s a Kelpie mix, maybe with German shepherd. He’s a long, lean beautiful, active, loving guy. Herbie loves people, is very smart and takes to training very quickly. He has had some private sessions w/ a trainer who raves about him. He does get a bit jumpy when he wants to get exercise in and when he’s super excited. He needs plenty of exercise and mental stimulation/play but relaxes nicely as well and enjoys belly rubs. Herbie has been crate training and is able to rest comfortably in it, without prompting for short durations, including putting himself into crate or settling on his bed for the night. He’s great with other dogs but needs to go into a home without a cat. Likely not a good fit for small kids right now. He’ll make a great hiking, running (he loves to run), or couch partner.

Tawny was a shelter favorite and had an upper respiratory infection which is a death sentence in high kill shelters. She was fostered at the last minute by a wonderful person who saved Tawny's life. We pulled her and are looking for that perfect home where Tawny can enjoy being a doggy for the first time. She is in foster care now with four other dogs and doing wonderfully. She is super fun, loves to play...waiting for that first trip to the beach so she canb live up to her Facebook page Tawny at the Beach! We've got Tawny as an Australian Kelpie mix but she is fostered with a Rhodesian Ridgeback and looks like a teacup model. See for yourself. Give us a call today and find out about our foster to adopt program and holistic care and support. Nobody ever needs a vet with our herbal and homeopathic supplements and good nutritious diet. Tawny is ready to meet her new family and get going on the beach!

Marigold is as sweet a dog as they come. She is in a high kill shelter and we are the reason. We pulled and placed her brother and sister and did not know Marigold was left behind. We have run out of Bay Area foster homes and would love to find a great foster (adopter better yet) in the Bay Area. Please take a second look at this sweet 35 pounder. Marigold is smart, very will-to-please, treat oriented, loves cuddles but also a great outdoors dog who will make an incredible hiking partner and all around pal. If you are looking for a dog friendly, people friendly pet who is fun outdoors and chill inside watching tv, then contact us to find out more about sweet Marigold. Ask about our incredible foster to adopt program and how we use nutrition and inexpensive holistic support so that nobody ever needs an exprensive vet! We've got over 20 years experience and the healthy dogs to show for it. Give us a call today to find out more about Marigold.

Story
2 yr old tricolor M/N Kelpie/GSD mix Looking for a dogs dog?? Gunner is your guy! He was comfortable enough around me, allowed touch, took treats, interacted some with me, but he really really wanted to play with the big dog in the next yard. He wasn't aloof though! Took treats gently, eager to please and loved being called a good boi, it was a fun yard time for both us us He does seem to be feeling the stress from the shelter, some have had some trouble getting him out of his kennel but he was perfectly behaved for me. This is an active breed, he will need consistent physical and mental exercise to be happy, it is likely what is causing his current stress and occasional barrier reactivity. It is worth noting that he was a very loud bork monster when I first approached his kennel but after 3 treats he was ready to follow me anywhere I was going Knows how to sit, walks well on the leash (just a tiny bit of pulling) and seemed potty trained!! ##2528145##

Story
Nani is a young pup we believe may be a herding breed mix. As she grows, she will likely benefit from daily exercise and mental stimulation consistent with her breed traits. Like all puppies, Nani will need continued training, structure, and positive socialization to help her mature into a well-adjusted adult dog. She would do best with adopters who understand the time, patience, and consistency required when raising a puppy. Please be home every 2 to 3 hours during this important developmental stage. Estimated adult weight is about 35-40 pounds, no guarantees.
