Story
Roscoe came to Pathways from a hoarding case in Santa Cruz. He is a bit hesitant around humans because he hasn't had much interaction with them. Once you earn his trust, he is the sweetest boy and loves to receive affection. Roscoe is still fairly young, and with some encouragement he's open to playing. He just needs to know he is allowed to. Once you see his smile, you can't help but want to see it all the time. Our hope is that he finds a family who will strive to make him smile each day, going forward, as he deserves.  Roscoe is a 3-year-old Labrador retriever who gets along great with dogs of all sizes, we are unsure of how he would do with cats. Due to his shyness, he may do better in a home with older children. He will need some work with a leash; however, he is kennel trained. Roscoe will need some reinforcement with his potty training. He's never had to have indoor manners. He is current on all vaccines, microchipped and neutered.  Please complete an adoption application at www.pathwaysforpaws.com. If he fits your family and lifestyle, you will be contacted within 48 hours. Click HERE for the adoption application ##2087415##

Story
Adorable little Jakey boy! ?? Just as precious as he looks, but even the cutest pups can have a little sass! Jake would feel his best in a home without kids under 12. He`s a shy sweetheart who needs his space and might give a little snap if he feels overwhelmed. This lovable guy is looking for a home filled with patience, kindness, and all the gentle love he deserves!

Story
Hi, I’m Emma. I had a rough start in life, but I’m doing great now. I’m always in a good mood, unless I’m chasing the birds in my back yard--then, I’m pretty fierce. I love to play retrieving my toys but also love to watch TV with my foster parent. I love everyone--dogs and humans. It doesn’t matter if you’re short or tall, I’m not intimidated at all. I was very skinny when I got here and still am on the slim side (10 lbs.), but I do like my food and like to graze a little all day. I’ve learned the doggy door and fly out of it 100 times a day going after whatever I think is out there. My voice is a little high-pitched because I am almost deaf and can be a bit “barky”. The vet said that he thinks I have a lot of birth defects that affect my balance and make my back end a little weak. Because my teeth are out of line and some are missing, my tongue sticks out. I haven’t been around kids at all so I don’t know how good I’ll be with them, but I’d say that young children would not be good for me.

Story
I`m a wonderful companion who thrives on attention, enjoys walks, and absolutely loves car rides. I`m also perfectly content to relax on the couch and keep you company. My ideal home is one where I am showered with love, attention, treats, and regular walks. I should mention that I can be a bit possessive and jealous when I`m getting attention—it’s just part of my personality—but I’m not looking for conflict, just a little extra reassurance. For those curious, I weigh between 16-18 pounds, making me the perfect size for cuddles and companionship!
