MEET RINGO! Ringo is a gorgeous 8-year-old German Shepherd in need of a foster or forever home. He was rescued from a shelter awhile back and is ready for a new leash on life! He is very intelligent and loyal. Ringo bonds intensely with his person, so would thrive in a home with a single person, or possibly a couple with German Shepherd experience ideally. Like most shepherds, he will be your true companion. He may be protective, so a quiet home/setting is important for him. Ringo loves car rides and riding in the front seat! He would love road trips and other adventures. He takes treats gently and sits on command. He has done well around other dogs. Please email for an application. Ringo weighs about 69 lbs.

Story
Meet Lollipop (aka Lolli), the blue eyed beauty of a mixed breed. We are guessing that she is some sort of German Shepherd mixed with Siberian Husky (aka a Shepsky) but are not totally sure on that. Lolli came into the Shelter from living at a property where she was primarily on a runner in a backyard. Despite the less than ideal start, Lollipop is sweet to the core. She has been easy for staff and volunteers to spend time with. A volunteer recently took her on a little weekend getaway from the Shelter and reports: “Lollipop was a joy to have overnight! She relaxed in the house right away and was clearly thrilled to have someone to cuddle. She also showed off her goofy side by happily pouncing after toys, rolling around on beds, and soaking up all the belly rubs she could get. She`s great in the car, friendly with every person she meets, and willing to try anything for a treat. Lolli would make a wonderful companion for someone who wants the best of both worlds: a calm, polite roommate, AND a confident adventure buddy who`d love to explore the world by your side.” Lolli has demonstrated that she does not love when other dogs pounce on her to play or get up in her business suddenly and will firmly, but appropriately, say “no thank you”. Due to observed prey drive out in the world, a home without small animals or cats is recommended. Lollipop did have some experience in a previous home around children and did well. Lollipop’s adoption fee is sponsored by the Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter Foundation’s Leave No One Behind fund—a program designed to shine a spotlight on animals who have been waiting a bit longer than most for their perfect match to adopt them. The Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter Foundation is now offering “Pawsitivity Bucks” with every dog adoption. This $200 training voucher is a way for newly adopted canines and their guardians to connect with local positive reinforcement based behavior consultants and get their relationship started off on the right paw!Please note: Our Santa Cruz location’s Shelter hours are 11-6pm, 7 days a week! Although clients can walk through and see any animals in their kennels during open hours, we end “meet and greets” (aka meeting an animal out of the kennel) at 4:30pm every day. If you’d like to meet an animal out of the kennel, please arrive before 4:00pm to allow for time to discuss individual animals and meet them.

Story
Meet Cadbury, the shepherd husky mix. Cadbury arrived at the Shelter as a stray so we don’t know much about his life before the Shelter. Although a little shy with new people, Cadbury warms up and is a soft, sweet boy with time and patience. Cadbury has met some dogs at the Shelter and may enjoy the company of some more than others. Any resident dogs are recommended to meet at the Shelter prior to adoption. Cadbury went on a little vacation from the Shelter with a volunteer who reports: `I took Cadbury out last week for a few hours for a quiet walk in our neighborhood and a nap at my house. He was comfortable with both me and my husband. Easy. He leans in for pets. And he went into a deep sleep when I took him home. He was very good on the walk. Easy and not pulling. Didn’t look at squirrels or cats. I’ve seen him with other volunteers and he comes in close for hugs and pets.`Cadbury`s adoption fee has been sponsored by the Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter Foundation`s Leave No One Behind fund- a fund that draws adopter`s eyes towards animals that have been waiting a little bit longer than average for the right adopters to come along and bring them home.The Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter Foundation is now offering “Pawsitivity Bucks” with every dog adoption.

Story
HI - I'M OTTO! I'm a 1-year-old purebred German Shepherd in need of a foster or forever home. I was rescued from a Southern California shelter in the nick of time. The shelter was full! I have an extremely gentle temperament, and quite honestly, I'm striking, with my cream-colored ruff! I can be a bit shy around strangers/new people at first but I warm up quickly, and am very affectionate with people I know and trust. I would make a great dog for an active single person, a couple or a family with older kids. I weigh about 58 lbs. Please email for an application.

Story
Hello! Blue is an 8 year old Belgian Malinois who was gifted to my family as a puppy. Unfortunately I will be moving away for school and won’t have time to care for him anymore. He’s been an outside dog for most of his life up until our other dog passed away. He isn’t house trained however he hasn’t had a potty accident inside. He went to the vet in December and is in great health with no illnesses. He is very cuddly, playful, and goofy with lots of energy, so I’m hoping he can find a home that can keep him stimulated. He thankfully isn’t aggressive nor has bit anyone or another dog. However he’s 95lbs and doesn’t know his ow strength so I don’t recommend him with children, the elderly, nor small animals. He has a lot of life to live and I hope he can find the perfect home!
