Story

Bentley is a 1.5-year old male Dutch Shepherd mix youngster (most likely Belgian Malinois) who was picked up as a stray by Stanislaus Animal Services. This poor puppy was so traumatized at the time of intake, but is now safe with rescue in a wonderful foster home, where he can decompress and begin to feel safe and loved. Bentley is a sweet little boy, and didn’t hesitate to come to our volunteer upon first greeting. He is now fully crate trained, and does well with other dogs. Initially, he was very shy when meeting other dogs, but has become a pretty confident pup, and loves to run and play. His first night in his foster home, he slept in his crate all night with no issues. He loves his people and at times wants to be right next to you, waiting for pets and lovin. Bentley will require a committed and loving human who will make him a part of the family, providing the care and attention that every young pup needs. Only older dog-savvy children 8 and above in an adoptive home will be considered. It will be necessary for an adopter to have recent successful experience in raising a GSD, Belgian Malinois, Dutch Shepherd, or other large breed working puppy. An adopter who will begin and continue his obedience training based upon positive reinforcement is recommended, including positive steps to discourage unwanted behavior, to ensure he remains on the path of a well-behaved canine companion. We are currently screening applications for the best possible fit. ##1805152##

Story

10/31/24 10:48Reason animal needs rescue: Has been in shelter over 90 days and improved drastically but is still looked over.Type: Length of StayImpound type: StrayAdditional notes: When Velma came in initially, she was very fearful. Volunteers and staff spent time helping her build confidence by having her in dog playgroups and doing lots of positive reinforcement. She has come very far and she deserves to go to a home after being here since June.08/19/24 14:59Dog behavior has improved. Inside of kennel when split from other dog inside of kennel, I am able to leash as she is now approaching the kennel door and bows her head to get leashed and is no longer biting at leash or displaying any aggressive behavior. She does not hesitate to come out of kennel and once she was outside I was able to do a full and invasive handling. She did well with me checking her teeth, pickiing up her front and back paw, checking and pulling her ears, petting her stomach and even allowed me to pick her up . She seeks attention when called with a low tail wag, a submissive head bow, a relaxed mouth and calm eyes. When walking around she ignored other dogs barking at her and just sniffed around with a calm body posture. LB07/09/24 15:58Since sharing a kennel with other dog has been getting better inside the kennel, comes when called and will lick hand. When I split them up and tried to leash her by herself her behavior went back to biting, striking, and jumping at leash. She eventually was leashed and froze again and did not want to getout of kennel. I then left the leash on and lifted the divider so the other dog can calm her down. I then split them up and tried to pull her out again and she went out without an issue, walked around and sniffed. I did basic petting and put dog back. Use caution when leashing. LB07/02/24 08:27ON June 27, Dog was at back of kennel, trying to bite leash when I tossed it in first time, shaking, lip licking, puckeing lips. Had to lasso to leash and once leashed she freezes and did not want to move out of kennel. Showed her another dog she came in with and was more motivated to go outside of her kennel. Outside of her kennel she is tail tucked but had no dilated eyes, relaxed mouth, rubbing on the dog she came in with. When getting overwhelmed she went under the legs of a volunteer who was sitting near by. Only able to do basic petting on back, not able to fully r

Story

Tara is a beautiful, 70 pound, long legged 4 year old kind, sweet and generous dog who is thriving in her foster home. Tara is a kind, sweet and generous dog who is thriving in her foster home. Tara quickly bonds to women but was unsure about men. Never showed any aggression but would bark and hide from them. Through the amazing patience and kindness from her male foster family members, Tara has learned that she can trust men, and is comfortable and playful around them. Watch Tara get the zoomies! Tara is smart and curious and is responding well to training. She is crate trained but sleeps quietly on her doggy bed and waits patiently until her family wakes up. Tara has great house manners. She doesn't chew inappropriately and stays off furniture. In the backyard, she doesn't dig and isn't destructive. Tara is not a demanding dog and happily waits until her foster family is ready to play. Tara loves walking and hiking and never pulls on the leash. She can be fussy when other dogs bark at her but is easily redirected. We think Tara would do best being an only dog. Tara learns quickly and is working hard on being the best canine citizen she can be! Tara is a level 3 dog. October 26, 2024, 6:53 pm

Sculley

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Sculley, born in late 2017, is an energetic, healthy, well-loved boy who at 3 years old was picked up as a stray and adopted by a senior couple. Nearly 3 years later, Sculley's owners need to rehome him because they are experiencing long-term health issues. Sculley is a smart dog who loves people. While well-loved, he has had minimal training and exposure to the outside world. At 75 pounds, Skulley is easily stimulated and sometimes his excitement gets the best of him which sometimes results in him being jumpy and mouthy. Our GSRNC trainer and foster has been working with Skulley for several weeks and says he is going to blossom in an environment with consistent structure and training! Sculley loves to play! His favorite game is fetch. BUT, there are very specific rules to his game. The only things needed are two items to throw!!! Sculley's Rules of Playing Fetch: 1. You throw the first toy. 2. I retrieve and drop it. 3. You then immediately throw the next toy. 4. I retrieve and drop it. 5. Repeat rules 1-4, all day long. Sculley settles in nicely after his play sessions. He loves to snuggle in for pets, scratches, and belly rubs. He has good house manners, uses a dog door, sleeps in a crate and, for now, is getting used to his foster siblings through baby gates with no reactivity, other than he wants ALL the attention for himself. He also loves car rides!!! No cats for this boy, he will definitely chase them! Sweet, loveable, and smart Sculley has been given an opportunity for a redo in life. With some basic manners training, stimulation, daily walks, adventures, and fun play sessions, we are certain he will make a great, loving companion. Due to Skulley’s excitability, we recommend an adult-only home or one with older children. Skulley is patiently waiting for his new forever family. Is that with you? Sculley is a level 3 dog being fostered in the East Bay. October 26, 2024, 6:53 pm

Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

My name is Shadow Nose and I just know someone is out there for me! Shadow is a perfect sized 53 lb., spayed, 3 year old well-adjusted girl who was recently diagnosed with maegosophalus*. She is friendly and comfortable around adults, strangers, children, and other dogs. To everyone's delight, not only is she adorable, but Shadow Nose is affectionate, energetic, outgoing, and curious. Check out Shadow Nose tossing her toy around! Shadow is crate trained and can be left alone without incident. She does not nuisance bark, or dig, and is happy to keep herself occupied when she has toys to play with. Our evaluator found Shadow to be relaxed while watching her in a sit, stand, and stay position as well as walking on a leash. This cutie rolled over for belly rubs before hopping up with a big smile and wagging tail hoping to entice our volunteer in a game of fetch. Shadow has some formal training and responds well to many verbal commands. Given her sweet demeanor, it should not take long to transform her from being a mildly mannered playful pup to your loyal loving companion. GSRNC and Shadow Nose knows the perfect home is out there. Is it yours? Shadow is a level 3 special needs dog. *Megaesophagus is a condition that decreases mobility in the muscles of the esophagus which interferes with proper swallowing movement. As a result, Shadow will need a special family who can feed her in a Bailey's Chair (provided by GSRNC) every time she eats. The Bailey's chair is constructed with the primary goal of positioning the dog upright during meals, allowing gravity to aid in the digestion process. October 26, 2024, 6:53 pm
