Story
**Meet Bosco Saturday, January 25th from 10 to 1 at Dublin Petsmart west, 6960 Amador Plaza Rd.** Bosco is a sweet 1-year-old Chihuahua/Terrier mix ready for his forever home! He weighs in at 17 pounds, so he’s the perfect compact size to accompany you on every adventure. In his foster home he has enjoyed the company of the resident pup, and would do great in a home with a doggie friend (he would do fine as a solo pup as well!). Squeaky toys are his favorite, and he’ll happily romp around with a toy in mouth, or engage in a game of fetch. At the end of the day, he loves nothing more than to cuddle up on the couch and watch TV with his humans (and sometimes makes little noises when he hears a dog on TV! Haha) Bosco sleeps quietly in his crate each night, and does well on leash. After only a week with his foster family, he is also perfecting his potty training! He is a little shy and takes a bit of time to warm up, but once he does, you’ll have a companion for life - he is well worth the wait! If you're interested in Bosco, you can submit an application by clicking the "Apply For Adoption box " located below his photos on the right side.

Story
Little Ranger will steal your heart when you choose to adopt him. He has all the personality that you love about puppies. Ranger loves to actively play and then snuggle in your arms for naps. His favorite game is playing peek-a-boo over the back of your couch. He loves to play with all types of toys from balls, ropes, and toys that squeak and crinkle. Ranger does well with other dogs and cats, however he is too active for senior dogs. He is doing well with puppy pad training. Ranger is also learning to go outside but he is cautious of the sliding glass door in his Tri-Valley Animal Rescue foster home. Ranger has been neutered, and microchipped, and is current on vaccinations. Would you like to adopt Ranger? The dog application is located on this page below his photos on the right. Please click the "Apply for Adoption" grey box to complete Ranger's dog application. A completed dog application is required prior to adoption.

Story
Long-Haired Chihuahua Mix Age: 3-5 years Male, neutered 11 lbs Adoption Fee: $125 (includes spay/neuter, microchip, vaccinations) PLEASE NOTE: We do not adopt any of our dogs out to families with children under the age of 13. Here is what Bodhi’s foster family has to say about him: “Meet our foster dog, Bodhi. He's a Heinz 57 of dogs, a little bit of everything. Bodhi is a character, and can be a little quirky. It took him a week before he wanted to have anything to do with us. After that week, he came out of his shell. He is a loving dog, that would be great in a home with 1-2 adults, no children. He would do great being the only dog. He can be a lap guarder, and he does not like to share said lap with other dogs. Bodhi is great on leash walks, and he is getting used to hanging out in the yard while I garden. When we started bringing him outside, he would do his business and then go back inside. Now, he is learning to hang out outside and relax. When Bodhi gets excited, he becomes a bit of mouthy player. (He does not bite down.) Just to add some observations from Bodhi’s previous foster home - he is pretty much a “one person” or “one family” dog. He is not too keen on interacting with strangers (visitors to your home or out in public). Potential adopters should be prepared to give Bodhi time to adjust to a new environment and new owners. He will likely take at least a couple weeks to trust and feel comfortable. It won't happen overnight. For more information about Bodhi, contact nobodysperfektdogs@gmail.com

Story
Chihuahuas Age: 4 yrs / 1 yr Females, spayed 9 / 7 lbs Adoption Fee: $125 (includes spay/neuter, microchip, vaccinations) Kanga and Roo came to us from the San Mateo SPCA. Kanga wasn’t at risk, and would have been available for adoption at the shelter. However, her surviving puppy (the other one died at the shelter), Roo, was special needs and was still nursing, so we had to take Kanga and the puppy, Roo, together. After separating them for a while once Roo was weaned, we decided to put them back together after Roo recovered from her surgeries. Kanga came from a very bad hoarding situation. She was very underweight (which probably contributed to the poor condition of her two puppies). She is very healthy now, and ready to be adopted. Roo showed signs of congenital birth defects in her legs (not surprising, given her rough start). Three of her legs were “good enough” for mobility, while the 4th leg was pretty messed up. We decided to do a series of surgeries to realign the bones on the worst leg. She is fully recovered and gets around pretty good (although, not sure that she could take long walks - maybe a stroller is in her future?) Kanga can be very shy and cautious when meeting new people, but when she does feel comfortable, she is super sweet and affectionate. Roo, as a puppy, loves everyone. Please note that we don’t adopt any of our dogs out to homes with children under the age of 13. For more information about Kanga & Roo, contact nobodysperfektdogs@gmail.com

Story
Chihuahua Mix Age: > 1 yrs old Male, neutered 7 lbs Adoption Fee: $125 (includes spay/neuter, microchip, vaccinations) Charlie was dropped off at the Berkeley Animal Shelter by someone who initially stated that they “found him.” Then it was discovered that person actually had the dog for a couple of months, so it was treated as an “owner surrender.” He has no real use of his back legs. They were froze/locked in a rigid position, so he used them to steady his back end, but he wasn’t able to actually move them in any useful way. X-rays of his spine showed a major deformity that he was likely born with. The shelter didn’t have the resources to care for this kind of disability. They called us before making the decision to euthanize him. We have determined that Charlie is incontinent (bowels and bladder) due to his condition. He mostly gets around by dragging his hind legs, and occasionally using his legs as “crutches”. The foster family hasn’t done a lot of work on getting him to use a wheelchair/cart. As a puppy he is very playful. He had to learn a lot of puppy manners while interacting with the other dogs in the home. He is doing pretty well in that area. Charlie would do well in a home with other friendly, playful dogs his size. Please note that we don’t adopt any of our dogs out to homes with children under the age of 13.

Story
Chihuahua Age: Senior (12) Female, spayed 9 lbs Adoption Fee: $125 (includes spay/neuter, microchip, vaccinations) Penny was brought to the shelter by someone who found her. She was already spayed and microchipped, but the person who answered the chip’s registered phone number (from 2012) supposedly wasn’t the owner. The finder claimed that Penny bit them as they were capturing her (not uncommon), and for that reason she was flagged with a bite history which means no other rescue group would help her. Even though she was available for adoption at the shelter, no one was interested, probably because she needed dental surgery. So the shelter called us. There have been no incidents of biting while at the shelter or in her foster home with Nobody’s Perfekt Dogs. We did the dental surgery - she went in with 7 remaining teeth, now she has only 2. Penny is a sweet gal, mellow, doesn’t seem to mind dogs her own size (not too keen on the large puppies in the rescue bothering her during adoption events). She would make a great companion for someone looking for an easy dog. Please note that we don’t adopt any of our dogs out to homes with children under the age of 13.

Story
Chihuahua / Cattle Dog Mix Age: 4-5 yrs Male, neutered 11 lbs Adoption Fee: $125 (includes spay/neuter, microchip, vaccinations) Huck came to the Stockton shelter in a very emaciated state. The shelter tried to help him gain weight, but because of overcrowding, the other dogs in the shared kennel ate Huck’s food before he could. They tried placing him in a foster home, but he ended up jumping out of his foster’s arms and breaking his front leg. UC Davis performed surgery to repair the leg, then the shelter contacted us to rescue him. Huck is eating well and has gained back his weight. He is under socialized but getting more confident with people. He is good with other dogs and likes to play with friendly dogs his size. His foster mom is working on his leash skills. Huck needs a home with another friendly dog(s) around his size that he can bond with, and continue building his trust with the humans in the home. Please note that we don’t adopt any of our dogs out to homes with children under the age of 13. For more information about Huck, contact nobodysperfektdogs@gmail.com
