Story
Lucille is a 4-year female Dutch Shepherd mix, about 70 pounds, and might just be the softest dog in the world! She loves to cuddle with her humans, shred cardboard boxes, and play with hoses. She's sweet, loyal, and affectionate, though can be shy at first with new people. Once she warms up to you, she is so loving and appreciates spending quality time together. Lucille thrives in a household with structure and routine and is used to being left at home while her humans are at work, etc. She is smart, learns quickly, is housebroken, leash-trained, has some crate training, and knows basic commands (sit, stay, down, touch, leave it, paw, come, place). Lucille likes long walks but is not high-energy. She has anxiety that is well-managed with a daily established medication regimen. She will do best being the single pet in a household, which is the only reason why she needs a new home that is a better fit for her. We will discuss subsidizing some meds and potential training with applicants.

Story
Obie (short for Old Boy) is a sweet old boy looking for a comfy couch to call his own. He has a beautiful fluffy coat that he enjoys a nice brushing of. Obie is a quiet and dignified couch potato. He is fine with everyone but particularly loves men. He loves ear scratches and a nice snooze. Obie is currently on medication for seizures. He takes this medication twice a day and it has greatly reduced his occurrence of seizures. He takes his medications easily if hidden in cream cheese, sour cream or yogurt. Obie is house trained with a doggie door right now. He enjoys spending his afternoons outside relaxing. He can be scared by loud things like fireworks but has done well with CBD as needed for this very specific anxiety. Obie does not really care for treats or toys. Treats he has enjoyed for training include lamb roast, mashed potatoes and eggs. He thinks vegetables are yucky. He seems to have been new to dog food but has taken to it well with some patience. Obie currently lives with another large dog and gets along well with her. She will even snap at him sometimes and he will not really react. He simply wants to be her friend. We also believe Obie will be fine with mannerly children. He has met toddlers and takes care to not knock them over. When meeting cats indoors, Obie was excited but did not necessarily exhibit high prey drive. He allowed his foster mom to call him back as she removed the cat. When he sees cats outdoors he like to try to chase them, though this is true of most dogs (even those that live with cats). All Better World Rescue dogs qualify for private and/or group training at no additional cost to help ensure a successful adoption. To meet Obie, fill out our short adoption application: www.betterworldrescue.org/adoption-application Once an application is filled out, our volunteers will reach out to you within one business day to answer any questions and schedule a meet and greet.

Max is a mellow and cheerful young pup with loving nature. He is close to humans, always greet people with a big smile and non-stop wagging tail and hip. He is super smart and aimed to please, so is easy to train. Around the house he obeys rules, has good judgement, and good self-discipline. He waits patiently before eating his food, before going thru doorways, and when getting in and out of the car. He checks-in often with his human, sitting very still and gazing up politely. He loves the head/tummy rubs and cuddling that follows. He loves to eat and gets excited before taking a walk, but will heed to command well. Max is crate trained to sleep overnight and potty trained to go outside. His favorite pastime is his daily walks, and romping around with doggie friends in the park.

Story
12/16/24 01:46Doggy Day Out Report:Today I got to go on Doggie Day Out! I was patient while my friend harnessed me and was ready to go on an adventure with the help of a boost into the car. My new friend took me to a busy park where there was so much to see, I couldn’t take it all in fast enough! I needed to stop and absorb all the sights and moving parts. My friend thought I’d enjoy myself more somewhere quieter, so she took me on a nice long walk in a neighborhood. I loved my long walk! There was a lot to see and smell and observe. I walked nicely on the leash and passed people and dogs politely. Afterwards, my friend surprised me with a tasty pup cup! Three Words to Describe Me are: Sweet, Gentle, CuriousNotes from My Walker: I had a nice day with Rosie! She’s a beautiful, sweet girl. She was excited to get going, but fairly easy to harness. She was interested in the car but needed a boost onto the seat and then sat and looked out the front window.We started at Almaden Lake Park, but the very busy trail was a bit too much for Roxie and she wanted to constantly stop and observe all the movement. We opted for a neighborhood walk and that was much more her speed! She walks nicely on the harness and passes people and dogs politely. She’s very curious and wants to observe everything that moves. She checked in regularly and leans against you for pets. Roxie would love a home to continue to expose her to the great big world! She’s a sweet, social girl with people and dogs and would make a great companion.

Story
Bonnie was born around Valentine's Day of this year and is approximately 10 months old. She is a pitbull/ shepherd mix. Her parents weigh in at about 60 lbs each. Bonnie is a playful girl who is still a bit startled by loud noises. She will need a bit of time to gain trust and be the carefree, playful girl we know she's meant to be. The ideal home for Bonnie would be free from small children and cats. Bonnie was never abused or neglected, but when she left her original home, she realized that there was a big, loud, sometimes scary world out there that she had not experienced. She's had many firsts with us (car rides, trips to the vet, walking on a leash, and getting to know new canines/humans). Can you see this darling being part of your forever family?

Story
Approximately 2 years old Dob 9/21/21 Shepherd/ Malinois mix (The condensed version) She was surrendered to the shelter with 2 other dogs and was too fearful to be touched. In fact she was so fearful it was decided that the exam wouldn't be forced. A bit later that day, there were visible worms in her ?, vomit all over her kennel and she was lethargic. Very lethargic. She was so sick, parvo had to be assessed out. Treatment was started right away to support her concerning condition. She was sent to Sage for overnight care, and she went into surgery for what was suspected as Pyometra. It was discovered that she had multiple half term dead babies inside of her. She came out of surgery and started her recovery. By the next day, she could be seen interested in people and she ate food, neither task she did a few days before. These dogs were living Is in a really unhealthy situation. My understanding is the person was possibly homeless and living out of their car. Half of me has compassion for the owner who surrendered them. That person didn't dump them or relinquish them at the shelter at the first sign of trouble. That person tried to make it work living out of their car with their dogs. This is a sad story on many fronts. It's sad for the dogs and It's sad for the human: they both lost. Of course, I have feelings around having so many dogs when you can't take care of them, But that doesn't overshadow my compassion. People on facebook are very quick to be judgmental when they're Is not doing any of the work at all, And if My presidency has taught our followers anything, It said I won't put up with that. If you're not doing any of the work your opinion really doesn't matter if it's negative. Even though the shelter footed the bill for her surgery, but that doesn't mean that we haveent taken on a burden as we do with every animal. Her board & train costs money. And of course we reach out to you. Lets find her a forever home, where she has a comfy couch and space to move around. She needs someone who will deeply love her. She is friendly and sweet. She takes just minutes to bond and wants to bond. She is submissive and would do well in a home with another dog who is a bit outgoing so she can see that example and this will bring out the best in her. She could also be a great companion for a single person and can provide home protection when she bonds. Again I want to point out that this girl would have surly died if she didnt end up with the shelter medical team. Much like when Mercy arrived, the shelter was (and still is) overcrowded. They had EVERY reason to euthanize at that point, but they didnt. The willingness to survive is deep with this girl and she wasent going to give up: she was in a ? situation with parasites in and on her, dead babies inside her and so fearful she couldn't be handled properly due the the pain she was in. On the other hand, she was begging for help. The shelter medical staff didnt give up on her either. When I see people posting that the shelter medical team are just murderers and they like to kill dogs (yes, that's what all the haters call them, yet the haters wont foster or adopt any dogs to help the situation) it makes me sick. I shake my head and vocalize a few choice words about the cowards they are. Again it's important for me to introduce new animals, But it's equally important for me to expose the public to my knowledge. Especially when good, good people are being slanderized every day. The dog's stories are sad, But what the heaters are doing is even sadder, Because this is our team of rescuers that they're cutting with a 1000 papercuts everyday, and for what. I don't work at the shelter, BUT I have two great examples of the medical teams willingness to save animals in just the last 3 months. Animals they had multiple reasons to euthanize upon intake. Remember Mercy and now Adira.October 29, 2024, 12:21 am
