Story
PERFECT DOG ALERT!! Adoption fee reduced for Senior love to $200 Dorothy (formerly Huckaby) – Proof That Love Changes Everything Dorothy’s journey hasn’t always been kind. She was dumped at a high-kill shelter in Stanislaus, where she quietly resigned herself to being unwanted. But her story took a beautiful turn when her incredible foster parents stepped in and gave her a brand-new leash on life (yes — we had to 😉). Since then, Dorothy has truly blossomed. She received the eye surgery she needed, was showered with love, patience, and comfort, and even formed an unlikely best friendship with a rehabilitating chicken. Somewhere along the way, Dorothy discovered the fountain of youth — and it turns out, it’s love. Now thriving, happy, and full of personality, Dorothy may not be a spring chicken… but she sure acts like one. She’s playful, affectionate, and ready to find her person — someone who will be her adventure buddy and continue showing her just how special she is. Dorothy is living proof that it’s never too late for a second chance — and she’s ready for her forever. 📍 Location: Stanislaus County, CA (currently in foster care) 🐾 Rescue: Grandma’s Barn Rescue & Sanctuary

Hello! Meet Ralts a 1 year old kelpie mix who's got a lot of love to give. He's amazing on leash and incredibly food motivated. When you want to chill he loves to pretend he's a lap dog and will launch himself into your lap. He's been neutral to dogs in the shelter and reportedly gets along well with small dogs. A big old love bug looking for a home, does he sound like a good fit for you? Interested in adopting? Visit our shelter during open hours and ask about Ralts A062121December 15, 2025, 7:24 pm
