Story
Violet is the most joyful and lovable gal! She is SO happy to be alive and makes sure you know how grateful she is every second! Having a bad day? Violets smile will light up the WHOLE room. She is a cuddly girl that is happy to be around her person and will be happy to do anything with you! Want a chill day on the couch? Vi approves! Want to take a 3 hour hike? Vi also approves! She is a very adaptable gal! Violet is searching for her new bff! Could that be you? Violet is a smaller pittie mix, around 55lbs and is all muscle! She is a young dog but clearly has been bred multiple times. She has done great with other dogs her size or bigger with slow introductions. Violet is fully potty trained, leash trained, crate trained, and will happily nap in her crate if you need to leave her home while you go out. She is energetic and loves to play just as much as she loves to snuggle! Violet has some prey drive to small animals so no small dogs or cats. Because of how jumpy and mouthy she can get when she plays or gets excited, we believe she would do best and thrive in a home with kits 10+ only. She has been working on this with a trainer and has improved so so much! Violet has spent 6 weeks with a credible balanced trainer @boooshank (IG) and has made a lot of progress and learning to slow down and think before just acting, which is HUGE for her. She has struggled with being bale to control her impulses because of her prey drive but with working with @boooshank, she has been able to let the chickens be friends and not want to eat them when walking by! Whoever takes a chance on Violet gets a lot of AMAZING training perks from her trainer Lee! Violet comes with lifetime assistance from him, group classes for her whole life and 1:1 lessons, boarding options and priority swimming pool slots! Violet is currently being fostered in Woodland, CA. If you would like to meet Violet, please fill out an adoption application on our website www.californiabullyrescue.org/adopt.

Story
Nugget is an introvert's best friend! He's medium energy, loves going out for walks and he walks well on leash, is crate trained, and respects established thresholds. He enjoys sunbathing, splooting, rolling around in the grass, chasing the water hose / sprinkler, napping after exercise, and is very food motivated. Nugget is slow to trust - he needs time to get to know you and does best in a calm, structured environment. While Nugs is not a social butterfly, when he bonds with someone he bonds for life. Once he trusts you he turns into a giant cuddle bug who melts when given affection. Nugs is dog friendly, and responds well to slow introductions. If you would like to meet Nugget, please fill out our adoption application on our website www.cabullyrescue.org/adopt Location: Lakewood, CA

Story
Long John Silver is a sweet dog; he has previously been fostered with other dogs and did well with canine companionship. He has been receiving baths with a medicated shampoo and loves his spa time!Long John Silver was transferred to Valley Humane on 11/10 from Oakland Animal Services. He was surrendered when his owner could not afford his necessary eye surgery. He is an adult dog (aged between 4 and 7 years old) and weighs 17 pounds.Long John Silver has been diagnosed with skin irritation due to suspected allergies. The signs of allergy are most commonly itching and skin inflammation or infection. This pet has been treated with a topical flea control and started on an allergy medication. A specific cause was not determined. Allergies are generally caused by one of 3 categories: 1. Flea allergy. 2. Environmental allergy (atopy). 3. Food allergy.Long John Silver was diagnosed with grade II-III patellar luxation in both knees. This condition is common in small and toy breed dogs. In grade I, the patella sometimes moves out of place but returns to its normal position its own. In grade IV, the patella (kneecap) is constantly out of place and does not move back into its normal position. Grades II and III are intermediate in between these. Patellar luxation can cause occasional intermittent to constant lameness. Surgical correction should be considered if the dog shows frequent lameness or pain.Do you have questions about this animal or are you ready to take the next step to adoption?

Story
   "Daisy is about 9-years old. A short backstory about Daisy: Sometime mid 2023, Daisy was abandoned at a boarding facility, where she gave birth to pups. Daisy and her puppies were rescued by Cal Paws; all of her pups have since been adopted. At an unknown time in the past, Daisy was hit by a car and suffered an injury resulting in a "blind" right eye.  So, lets tell you about the Daisy we have come to know since the middle of 2023: sweet, calm, and lovingly responsive to kindness.    Daisy's favorite activity includes her morning and evening walks; and a few times a week, Daisy wil walk out to the back yard and suddenly engage in zooming around the yard, lasting for about 30 seconds, and then relaxing and rolling around. Personal favorites are the occasional treat, chewy toys and frozen femur bones .... and car rides.    Daisy's "Not Fun" list: not a water dog; pickup the water hose to water the garden, Daisy will go the opposite way. She does not like hoses or squirt bottles of any kind. She will occasionally lay in the back yard area, in the sun, by herself but she does not like to be left alone outside. She will walk outside with you, but as soon as you return to the house Daisy will immediately follow; often being first at the door to walk in with you.  Daisy knows "come, sit, stay, down (for treats), wait, No, leave it, heel (during walks), and will go to her crate when motioning with your hand and saying "Crate".    Daisy's LEASH MANNERS are excellent.  Daisy is absolutely great with strangers and children; loves to chase squirrels and cats that run along the top of the yard fences. (Hasn't even come close to ever making contact with them).  Daisy's House Manners are excellent: calm and responsive. At eating time, Daisy will sit patiently until given the okay to eat from the bowl. At home or on a walk, Daisy rarely barks. And when she does, it's one bark in a reaction to something. For example, if someone knocks on the front door Daisy will yelp out one bark.  Daisy truly enjoys car rides: She will, of course, "'call out shot gun'" as she makes her way to the front seat but is easily sent to the back seat, where she is attached to a doggie safety-buckle. Daisy remains calm throughout travels, sometimes resting her head at the top corner of the front seat.   The ideal place for Daisy is a calm environment ... Daisy enjoys her naps and staying nearby wherever you may be.  Another dog who is calm and not anxious would add to the ideal home for Daisy. ... Daisy would be a great addition to any person and/or family, who would be very lucky to have Daisy in their presence."  ##1841728##

Story
We have made the painful decision to rehome our 2.5 year old dog, Ginger. We adopted Ginger in January 2023 from the San Jose Animal Care Shelter. She is extremely sweet, loving, protective, warm, and playful. She enjoys running on grass, playing fetch, and cuddling in bed. She also loves to abuse her “treat” button and get treats, bread or strawberries in return! Ginger has displayed some aggression towards other dogs, unfortunately. She needs a home that can handle and train out her aggression, is willing to deal with her separation anxiety, and is able to spend the time to train her to be less reactive and toy possessive. We are looking for a home where she can thrive despite her quirks. Also, we would appreciate it if her new pawrents would be willing to let us meet her every once in a while - she's been such an important part of our lives for 18 months and it pains us to have to let her go, but if we can see her every now and then, that might make it a tad bit easier for us.

These pups are in Pleasanton, California too!

Story
Chunk is a bit of special boy, he's very dog neutrally and friendly, he gets along great with them and could live with them. However, when he does live with another dog, it makes him lose trust in humans and causes him to bite when he's afraid, though he never does this in a home without other dogs. So, a home where he can be the only dog would be best or in a home with 1 other mellow dog. Chunk has spent 12 weeks of professional training with Lee Johnson of BeSpokeK9 and is practicing being his best self and his new and improved leash skills! Chunk comes with lifetime assistance from his trainer @boooshank (IG), group classes for the rest of his life, 1:1 lessons, boarding options and priority swimming pool slots for anyone who takes a chance on this amazing guy! Chunk is a special boy and looking for his special family He loves to play, very food motivated and enjoys walks! He gets triggered by loud noises, quick movements and will bark when he wants cuddles. Chunk is a very healthy English Bulldog and doesn't even have most of their allergies or skin concerns that typically accompany the breed. Without dogs, he is absolutely perfect, cuddly, affectionate, and calm. He'll follow you around the house and try to be a lap dog whenever he can! Chunk needs a very structured home, where boundaries are enforced and kept. Chunk is being fostered in Fairfield, CA. If you would like to meet Chunk, please fill out our adoption application on our website www.cabullyrescue.org/adopt.

Story
Hi! I am Cheesecake, well...simply because i look like one. LOL. I am dog friendly but have had a hard time trusting new people. I am working on this and my confidence and am doing my best! I was saved from Merced Shelter right around Thanksgiving. I am 57lbs and still trying to loose a little weight, but with all the walking i do, i am sure i will lose a few pounds shortly! I am good with other dogs but need some time to warm up to new people, they scare me a little bit. I am working on feeling safe in the crate too, but i have been doing a lot better! I am a sweet girl, who just needs to feel safe, loved and have boundaries. I am currently being fostered in Richmond, CA. If you would like to meet me, please fill out an application on our website www.californiabullyrescue.org/adopt

Story
This is Ruthie! She has a very loving and affectionate personality. She is playful and Loveees getting massages and scratches. She play bites but is able to redirect to a toy. She loves her yak cheese chew and nylabone but isn't such a fan of the flirt pole or fetch. She is not much of a runner. This girl is a true bully who loves to sunbath and will find the only spot of sun in the yard to lay in. All ruthie wants to do is lean against you and wait for all the cuddles. If you stop letting her she will paw at you to let you know she wants more. She is very quiet and hasn't really made a peep. Loves car adventures and just lays down and falls asleep. She is such a sweet girl who just wants to be with her person and be loved.
