Story
Meet Tony! Tony is a big, handsome mixed breed.. our guess is Australian Shepherd, husky and who knows what else! Tony was previously an outdoor only dog who was surrendered due to his previous guardians being unable to continue caring for him. Despite the rather dramatic change of environment, Tony has been learning that the world is not so scary. After a few days of acclimation to the Shelter, he has been letting loose – frolicking off leash and chasing toys. Staff report that he comes galloping over when called and enjoys being pet. This resilient guy is looking for an adopter that will guide him towards success in his next home. Although Tony previously was outdoors, he is very people focused and would love to be someone’s companion dog. He has met dogs at the Shelter and demonstrated some interest in playing. A home with a well rounded pup may be a fit provided they meet at the Shelter prior to adoption. Bonding through positive reinforcement based training would be a great way for adopters to help Tony learn things like house training and walking on leash. We do not have any history of Tony with cats. A dog-savvy cat paired with a thoughtful, slow introduction may be a fit.

Story
Meet Rumble. This mixed breed softy came into the Shelter after his previous guardian could no longer care for him. He is a mixed breed who lived in a property with other pups. Rumble was primarily outdoors in his previous home so his guardians will need to be patient in the transition to indoor living. Things such as potty training and walking on leash may take a bit of time for Rumble to pick up. With patience, management, and positive reinforcement based training, we anticipate that Rumble will pick things up quickly. Rumble has been around children in his previous home. A home with kids is likely a fit. We do not have any history of Rumble living with cats or small animals.

Ed is a 10 week old Aussie/GSD cross (our best guess)! He will likely grow to be 50-60lbs. He’s a sweet and sensitive puppy still learning about potty training, socialization, manners, and life skills, typical puppy stuff! He’s on an eat sleep potty play repeat schedule. Has high food drive. Will make a cool adventure dog for someone!

Banzai is a 10 week old Aussie/GSD mix we guess! We estimate her to be about 50lbs full grown. She’s the clever one of the bunch, and higher drive. High food, toy, water drive, and a little more pushy. Working on potty and crate training plus life skills and socialization, typical puppy stuff. She will be a lot of fun and a great adventure or sports dog! Probably best in a more experienced home or a home dedicated to more training and engagement with their dog.

Story
Meet Bailey, the resilient 6-year-old Australian Shepard whose journey began by the busy freeway junction of 85 and 101. Despite facing challenges, Bailey`s Spirit remains unbroken. With injuries on her legs and forehead, she has emerged stronger. This affectionate soul is incredibly friendly, melting hearts with her warm demeanor. While car rides and new environments might make her a bit unsure, Bailey`s true joy shines when surrounded by people. Intrigued by the feathered friends at the shelter, she shows a keen interest in chickens and ducks.Interested in meeting me? Please visit our adoption center located at 12425 Monterey Rd in San Martin anytime during open hours (12-6pm weekdays, 12-5 pm weekends). No appointment is necessary and there is no pre-application process.
