My name is Sahara!

Animal Profile: Sahara is an estimated 3 year old 45 lb female pitbull terrier mix who will be joining us along with her 4 babies from San Joaquin California.  These dogs have been held in outdoor kennels at a Waste Treatment Facility in San Joaquin Valley. Temperatures are now over 100 degrees and these dogs sit and wait for help to arrive. This “shelter” has no website, no adoptions, and no resources. We were asked to help so they will be joining us on June 16th. We will share more info as we get to know them in foster care. 

Foster Update:  Hi, my name is  Sahara . I am a white and fawn bully mix. I was rescued from the desert where I had just given birth to some beautiful babies. Now that they are on their way to finding their own homes and mommy duty is done, it is time for me to live my best life. My current favorite things are walking, food and snuggles. I am very smart, affectionate and have a huge personality. My foster mom says I learn quickly, especially when there is food involved. I know “leave it,””sit,” “no,” “get down,” “slowly (for going up and down stairs)” and “crate.” I am an excellent crate sleeper at night but prefer a midday walk during the longer work days. I love to go on sniffaris and observer the world around me; I am gaining confidence around loud and startling noises but sometimes things can be a little scary.
