Story
Ginny  is super sweet and playful, especially with other dogs. She's a little skittish at first and takes a little while to warm up, but once she's comfortable with you, she is sweet, a champion snuggler, and an all-around great companion. Energy Level?  Medium House trained?  Yes Describe how they are on a leash. Does well on a leash. Likes to stop and smell all the smells. Describe how they are with other dogs?     Ginny plays nice with other dogs and has lived with other dogs; however, she would do well as your one and only.   She loves all the attention. Have they been around cats or other animals? How were they?  Ginny has been in home with a dog-savvy cat and did very well. Commands they know?  She comes when called.  What are their favorite things?  Playing with other dogs, chewing on toys and treats, and snuggling with her people. She also enjoys being outside and exploring our backyard. What do they need to work on?   Ginny  is still learning what's okay and not okay to chew. She'll need lots of toys that are safe for chewing and some patience and understanding while she figures it out.  How are they when left alone? How long have they been left alone?  She has been alone for up to 8 hours and has been okay. She may howl briefly as we leave but then quiets down. She is generally happy in her crate and has a good view of all her foster fur siblings. Where do they sleep?  In a small crate in our bedroom. She sleeps well through the night and enjoys a morning snuggle in our bed when there's time. What is their ideal home?   Ginny 's perfect home includes at least one other similarly-sized dog because doggy playtime is her favorite thing. She'll need a family who can give her some time and space to get comfortable, as she can be pretty skittish initially. She'll also need patience as she learns what's okay to chew and what's not. Once she's comfortable with you and all settled in, she is an excellent companion and will reward you with epic snuggles and much love. Ginny should be in an adult only home.

Story
Meet Skipper!-7 year old male rat terrier -Came to the Shelter as a stray-Staff have observed that he is amiable and easy going in personalityCurrently in a foster home with a dog savvy person and their resident female dog. Foster parent has observed that Skipper is sweet and calm in the home. He is neutral meeting strangers - saying hi then exploring the environment. After meeting the resident dog and the novelty wearing off, Skipper is coexisting nicely. The resident kitties are too fun to chase so a feline free home is recommended. Skipper loves head massages and going for walks. Despite his age - he has a good pace for someone looking for a walking buddy. With adequate potty breaks and management - Skipper is on his way to being house trained. He has met strangers - from children to elderly and has done well. Skipper is not interested in playing with toys and much prefers to go on sniffaris. Through December 31, this pet has a reduced adoption fee of just $50!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
We have had Skuba for 4 years. He originally is my daughters dog and she is now grown and does not have the time for him, and he is too much work for me to permanently take on. He misses his brother (red dog) who passed 2 years ago. I do not have the time for him, nor do I have the attachment to him, and he is very jealous and aggressive to my 70lb dog. Skuba should be the only dog in the home, as he is temperamental and will snap at other dogs. He likes to be the center of attention. He is very sweet and loves outdoors and playing in the water. He loves getting sprays from the hose and lots of cuddles. He deserves someone who has the time and undivided attention for him. Hope Skuba can find a forever home with YOU!!!
