Story
Meet Sugar Pop! Sugar is looking for her happily-ever-after with dog parents who are willing to help train and socialize her. She has a wary side when it comes to strangers, but with the right amount of treats and loving, she is a total treat to have around. She will make sure to be the most loyal, and goofy best friend you'll ever need. Sugar does great with commands, especially when the treats are available. She is good with most dogs, but would do best on individual play dates to help her warm up to new human individuals. Sugar would prefer an adult only home with dog experience that can give her the TLC she deserves as she works on becoming the confident girl she strives to be.

Story
Riley is a 41 lb, 5 year old sweet girl that is looking for a home that will give her love, stability, a safe space, and training. She has been in and out of shelters for many years, through no fault of her own, and needs a chance to decompress, acclimate, and given the chance to be a part of a loving family. She is highly treat motivated, athletic, and whip smart. She is good with kids, but is a bit rough and would do best with ones that are older and dog savvy. Shy at first, Riley bonds quickly to her humans and does well with slow introductions to other dogs. She is very playful, has loads of energy, but also knows how to cuddle up at the end of the day. As with many shelter dogs, Riley is an excellent candidate for consistent training and a family that can help her reach her potential. Come visit us and meet Riley!

This sweet, speckled gal looking for her forever home! Pepper is seeking a house where she can fully lean into the couch potato that she is! This girl loves her people and showing them affection. She loves to cuddle, adores car rides, and her superpower is finding the perfect sunbathing spot! Pepper gives kisses when requested, what more love can you want for?! Pepper could live in a home with a small canine companion, with a slow introduction. Notes from her fosters; "This sweet, speckled gal is looking for her forever home! Pepper, weighing in at a perfect 48 pounds, is ready to settle into a loving household where she can embrace her inner couch potato. She adores lounging and watching the Olympics with her foster family, making her the perfect companion for cozy nights in. Pepper is a smart cookie who knows commands like "sit" and "shake." She enjoys her daily walks of about a mile or two, mainly because she loves to sniff around, taking in all the exciting scents. Car rides are another one of her favorite activities -she peers out the window with endless curiosity, making every trip an adventure. A true people-lover, Pepper is thrilled to meet new friends and is always eager for pets and belly scratches. Her love language is definitely physical touch; she'll gently rest her head against you when she craves some affection. This cuddle bug also has a knack for finding the perfect sunbathing spot, making her a delightful companion for sunny days. Pepper could share her home with a small canine friend, given a slow introduction. She's a huge fan of car rides, cuddling, and giving kisses on request -what more could you ask for in a furry friend? If you're looking for a loving, affectionate, and loyal companion, Pepper is your girl."

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Billy! This sweet Pitty mix is a total lovebug. He's a champion snuggler who thrives on affection and is always up for some quality time with his humans (think velcro dog!). Billy gets along great with other dogs, preferring playful interactions over confrontation. He walks nicely on a leash, happy to stroll or join in some doggy play. He knows basic commands and responds well to his name and has good recall. While he's potty-trained on command, he could use a little help learning to signal when he needs to go. A secure yard is a must, and he'll be happiest with another dog over being left home or in a yard alone, which may find him jumping a fence - this smart boy can get creative when bored. He is interested in cats and will chase if they run, but does not seem a danger. If you're looking for a sweet, affectionate companion, Billy is your guy!

< Back Raven Raven is a sociable and loving 5-year-old female dog who weighs about 62 pounds. There are things I would like to add about Raven, she is a very self-confident dog, very comfortable among the pack, I still remember the day she arrived, she walked among all the dogs as if nothing happened.She was not intimidated and was not defensive. It seemed as if she had been part of the pack since day one. She is very affectionate and loves humans in general. She has a very innocent little face that makes your heart melt when you see her. She has a very low temperament, she likes to lie in her bed and she really likes to walk on a leash and she likes to be petted. She is a calm and mature dog ideal for any family or perhaps for older people.   All our dogs will come to you spayed and fully vetted.Adoption Fee:  $475.00You can fill out our adoption application form at https://www.4dogsfarmrescue.org/adoption ##2211367##

American Pit Bull Terrier

Female, 3 yrs 2 mos
Berkeley, CA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Shampers is a tender-hearted, shy girl who needs just a little time and patience to feel safe with new people. She's naturally curious, though, and with a slow, gentle approach, she’ll start checking you out in no time. Once she realizes you’re a friend, she’ll quietly start following along, often tagging behind her person on walks, as if she's trying to stay in the background while still enjoying your company. Loud noises can make Shampers anxious, but in our playroom, she’s beginning to find her confidence. When it comes to other dogs, Shampers really comes alive. Her playful side emerges when she feels safe, and she thrives in the presence of calm, confident dogs who help her feel secure and bring out her playful, carefree side. She looks to them for reassurance, and their companionship shows her that people and the world around her aren't as intimidating as they might seem. She might be hesitant to ask for attention at first, but once you start petting her, she won’t want you to stop! She’s a young dog, full of potential, and just waiting for the right person to show her that the world isn’t so scary after all. Shampers is currently in a foster home. If you're interested in her, please email KSwanson@cityofberkeley.info First, we'll set up a virtual meeting with their current foster family via phone, Zoom, or Facetime, to provide you with more detailed information. Then, if you feel that Shampers might be a good adoption fit, shelter staff will gladly coordinate an up-close and personal meet and greet with your potential family member.

Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
This is Cole, one of our longest residents who really wants a home. It’s no fun for a puppy to grow up in a shelter kennel. Cole is a nice young pup who's looking for a new start. He is a little shy of strangers at first, and may give you a spooky little bark. But if you show him some affection and some treats, he'll be your best friend pretty quickly. He loves lap time in the playroom, even though he's a little big for that! He also loves other dogs and would do well with a companion dog in the home to show him the ropes. Cole can be pretty high energy sometimes, like any respectable young dog, and another dog would also help him get out some of that fun energy. Cole also settles nicely with his human friends. Once he gets the lay of the land, we think Cole will do well in a home – he just needs a chance, and someone to fall in love with him as much as our volunteers have!

These pups are in Richmond, California too!

Story
Dumpling is such a sweet girl! This pup was dumped at Milo, but it hasn't affected her loving nature. She is a total LOVEBUG and wants cuddles and attention all the time, and would be happy to snuggle her humans on the couch, if allowed. She's great with other dogs, and would love a home with a playful pup, but could do well in a home by herself, providing she's given plenty of love and training. Initial exposure to cats and chickens have been positive, where she's shown curiosity but not aggression, so with appropriate introductions, she may be able to live with cats and other animals. She's still a pup and she learns about the world around her through mouthing. She's gentle though and her wonderful fosters are redirecting onto toys, which she's starting to pick up. She's also working on her leash skills and house training, as well as other basic commands. She is taking well to crate training so far. Dumpling would do best in a home that is able to give her daily walks, LOTS of snuggles, and work on basic training and socialization. Does Dumpling sound like a fit for you? Apply today to meet this cutie!
