My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Personality
Sandy is a sweet, affectionate, and clever dog with a big heart. She`s an excellent companion who’s full of energy and enthusiasm. Sandy loves being around people and cherishes every moment of cuddle time she can get. Growing up as a country dog, she enjoys being outdoors during the day and settles quietly in her kennel in the garage at night.
Health and Grooming
Sandy has been spayed and is up-to-date on all her vaccinations, including rabies. She’s had no health issues, and Sierra Veterinary Hospital in Auberry has provided all her veterinary care. Her complete medical records are available.
Sandy’s History
In February 2024, our neighbor`s Australian Shepherd/Lab/Husky mix had twelve puppies. The father is believed to be a pit bull-type dog. Sandy and her sister Hiedi caught our attention from the start, and we brought them home when they were eight weeks old. The rest of the litter found homes with other families. Sandy and Hiedi grew up playing with their mom and the neighbor’s two large, friendly dogs. Unfortunately, Sandy developed Littermate Syndrome, leading to aggression towards Hiedi and, more recently, our smaller dogs—mostly over food, toys, or affection. Because of this, Sandy is now kept separate from Hiedi and the smaller dogs.

Additional adoption info

In the Central Valley, we have an over abundance of homeless and unwanted pets. There are simply too many companion animals and not enough homes! But you can help. One way to start putting an end to pet overpopulation is to adopt your next pet from the Central California SPCA. In doing so, you immediately give a home to an animal that didn’t have one, and you reduce the overall number of homeless pets in our community.

You are saving a life and enhancing your own. You are also helping to support the nearly 17,000 animals that come through our doors each year.

Please note that these are sheltered, homeless animals that are not always perfect in every way. They may need extra time to adjust or have unforeseen behavioral or medical problems. While we strive for successful placement by providing as healthy, well socialized animals as possible, we can only provide any history we have received, collected, or observed from staff or volunteers during their stay.

More about this shelter

As the premier animal welfare organization in California’s Central Valley since 1895, we are committed to leading and serving our community of animals and people by providing programs and services which serve all the stages of an animal’s life. These programs include Adoptions, Rescue, Humane Investigations, Foster Care, Owner Surrenders, Outreach, Humane Education, Veterinary Services, Spay/Neuter programs, and many other Pet Services.

The CCSPCA also assumes responsibility, by contract, to perform the Animal Control and Leash Law services for the City of Fresno dating back to September 1951.

The modern facilities and our caring staff offer safe refuge, nourishment, medical care, and love to every animal in our Animal Center.

We are not federally, state, or locally funded and do not receive aid from any national organization (including the ASPCA). The CCSPCA owns its own land, buildings, and equipment purchased with privately donated funds. Our funds come from our loyal supporters, allowing us to provide many vital services to our community.

Donate a bed!

Please help us to make our shelter dogs and cats more comfortable while waiting for homes. We still don't have enough Kuranda beds for all of our kennels. We need them in all sizes. If you would like to donate a bed so a dog or cat can sleep in proper comfort, please click here.
