I've had 2 foot surgeries and can no longer handle my dog. He is a great pet! He is friendly, follows commands, and has served as my security dog for over 8 years. I'd rather see him go to a good home than have him put down.

Story
Freddie is a healthy, spayed, 1.5 yr old female hound/ boxer/ American Staffordshire terrier mix urgently in need of a new home. She is a stray that has been lovingly fostered for a year in West Sonoma, but now her human is 8 months pregnant and has relocated to a place that cannot accept dogs. Freddie is responsive to training and would be a great companion and guard dog for someone who lives alone on a rural property. She is comfortable and playful with other dogs after an adjustment period but very protective of her human. She's a quick learner, does not run away from rural homes, and loves to snuggle and is very tender once she has a bond. She would be best with a mature woman who has experience with large breed dogs and plenty of space for this active pup to run. Freddie's current location is in Alameda County, but her foster mom is ready to bring Freddie anywhere in Northern Calif to relocate her. She will be provided with a large crate, bed and car hammock.

Story
We are looking to rehome our dog, Tina. She has been with us since she was 6 months old and now she is about 9. Tina was born deaf and has had her teeth removed with no issues for about a year now. She eats soft food well. We work long hours and have a four year old and another on the way, so the joy we used to take from spending time with her now feels like a chore. She is is a lovely dog and would do well in any home after a brief "getting to know you" phase. Knows how to use a dog door.

Story
Hi! My name is Sigrid, and I'm the sweetest girl looking for a new home. I love walks, sniffs, snuggles, chewing on a bone, riding in the car - especially if I can get my nose out the window - and playing chase with my dog friends. I love to curl up next to my human on the couch and am such a good girl home alone in the house. I am very smart and always listen to my humans, unless I see a cat and then I can't resist chasing! I would love to meet you! History: I used to be a stray in the first few months of my life before I went to a good home, so I am afraid of strangers. I bond deeply with my live-in humans, but I need to keep my distance from visitors.
