Story
Meet Emma! 13-year-old Emma was entrusted to our care through the Final Wish Program after her dad fell and sustained a severe spinal cord injury, leaving him paraplegic. Emma is a loving, sweet, and gentle companion who loves to be around people, napping at their feet, going for short walks, and having plenty of cuddle time. In her previous home, Emma also enjoyed sitting on the patio and keeping her dad company while he was outdoors. Emma had a vestibular episode in 2023 that left her with a slight head tilt, and arthritis in her spine causes her to shuffle a bit when she walk, as you can see in the video. She doesn't let either keep her from living her best life! Emma does ask that her new home be one-story, so she can easily access her favorite spots. She would also appreciate a dog bed that’s easy for her to walk into. Emma does well with other dogs in the household and tends to be submissive. The only exception is if there is a food involved; she does not resource guard or act aggressively, but will try to snag something yummy (don't we all?) Emma would also be content as the only pet in the home. Emma is a sweet and easygoing dog who thrives on companionship and affection. She would be a great fit for someone looking for a laid-back companion who will keep you company throughout the day and offer you love and devotion in return. Drop by to meet Emma between 10 AM and 3 PM any day of the week. Be prepared to fall in love with this gentle soul!

Story
Meet your New Best Friend! If you would like to reserve this doggie and have us bring them to the event of your choice for you to meet first, you can do so by paying a non-refundable deposit of $50 to our Venmo or Zelle account (619-918 2142 in the name of Amazing Dogs; pls indicate your telephone number). This deposit will go towards the adoption fee. After receipt of your deposit, we will confirm your reservation and list the doggie on our website as ‘Pending Adoption’. If you decide not to adopt one of our Amazing Dogs, the $50 is considered a compensation for the transportation costs. All our doggies come with their health record and have received all necessary medical care, which includes (but is not limited to) all vaccines, de-wormer, anti-flea/tick medication, microchip and of course spay/neuter surgery. Our adoption fee is $500. Only in California, the fee for babies under a year old is $600. Please consider this not as a price you pay for the doggie, but as a (tax-deductible) donation to our charity, so we can continue our work and take care of the 250+ dogs in our shelter. Read more about why we charge adoption fees here: https://amazingdogs.org/adoption-fees/ If you have any additional inquiries, please don't hesitate to reach out to us via call or text. We are excited to meet you at our upcoming adoption event! Contact before event: Sandra Garcia T (408) 477-0553.

Story
When we adopted Kalie (also known as Kal-girl), she had been in the shelter for 2 weeks. She had been found roaming the streets, malnourished and filthy. She had just had a litter of puppies that weren’t able to be found. When we brought her home, she was timid and scared. But with the help of our older dog, she opened up quickly and became fast friends with all of us. Recently, our older dog has been having health issues and we can’t give Kalie the attention she needs. We’re looking for someone who can give her the forever family she deserves
