Story
Meet Boba, the wonderdog! Boba is just under a year old and is the epitome of a happy-go-lucky boy. He has been through so much but has remained such a ray of sunshine who loves everyone he meets. The word "stranger" isn't in Boba's vocabulary, instead, he sees everyone as a potential new BFF. Boba has blown us away with his resilience and love of life and we can't wait to see what his future holds. Boba likely is fully grown and weighs about 41lbs. Due to being a tripod, his new family will need to ensure he stays slim to avoid any unnecessary weight on his front leg. Boba came to us from a local shelter when his previous family surrendered him after he came into the shelter as a stray. He was found with a broken leg that had healed incorrectly and it was determined that the best thing was to have the leg amputated. Boba has adjusted very well to being on three legs and doesn't let it stop him from doing lots of zoomies. Boba is the perfect mix of cuddly and active and is pretty much happy to do whatever as long as he can be by your side. His favorite activities include tug-of-war, playing tag with his foster sister, or throwing a toy around for himself to play with. He is an expert cuddler and is happy to lay his entire body on top of you for nap time. Boba radiates happiness and it's pretty impossible not to have a smile on your face when he's around. Boba has been doing great with his basic manners but is still a puppy who can get mouthy when excited. He also isn't afraid to vocalize when he wants attention or someone to play with him. He would benefit from some continued training to help him be the best boy he can be. Boba has done get with all the dogs he has met and would be a great buddy for someone looking for a playmate for their active pup. His best friend is a little chihuahua/terrier mix and he has done great mellowing his playstyle to match hers. Due to his puppy antics, he probably wouldn't be a good fit to live with an older dog unless there was another active dog for him to play with. Boba has done well with dog-savvy cats but does think it's a fun game to chase them if they run. He likely could do well living with confident cats with a slow introduction and proper supervision. Boba has also done well co-existing with the chickens in his foster home. Boba could be a wonderful addition to a family with kids 10 years or older. Boba has been doing great with his house and crate training. He sleeps in his crate at night and has done well being left home alone in his crate for a few hours at a time. Since he is so people-oriented, he would do best with a family who doesn't have to leave him alone often or for long. Boba has done well living in an apartment with plenty of daily exercise. Boba was born with a heart defect called  pulmonary stenosis. He was evaluated at UC Davis and had a procedure called a balloon valvuloplasty done. Boba recovered very well from the procedure and the cardiologist thinks he has a very high chance of living a normal life post-op. Boba will need to continue to receive twice daily medication for his heart until he is reevaluated in 3 months. He will need yearly check-ups with a cardiologist for the rest of his life to ensure his heart remains healthy. He will never be a doggie athlete, but he can live a life full of adventure and can still do normal activities like running and playing. Boba is such an amazing dog and we have all fallen head over heels in love with him. We know his perfect family is out there! If you think that might be you, submit an adoption application today!   Boba's adoption fee is $350.   Apply to adopt here!  https://form.jotform.com/52017002013129/   Applications are also available on the website (www.yolospca.org)  It can take up to 3-5 business days to hear back once you have submitted an application. The Yolo County SPCA is a private, not-for-profit, foster home-based animal rescue organization and does not have a shelter. All our animals awaiting adoption are in foster homes. Our adoption fees help us cover the cost of spay/neuter surgery, microchip and registration, and rabies vaccination (if over 4 months of age at intake or spay/neuter) for all animals. Dogs are tested for heartworm, started on preventatives, and given a DAPP vaccination. Adult dogs are up to date on their vaccinations prior to adoption. Puppies will be current on the vaccinations appropriate to their age. The adopter is responsible for additional vaccinations as necessary after the adoption. For more information about an animal, please email dogs@yolospca.org.

Story
It is with a heavy heart that I am even rewriting this. We adopted Mason from the shelter when he was a 4 month old puppy and he has changed our lives for the better. Mason is a energetic, protective, big snuggle buddy, toy lover, and so much more. Mason is a little over 4years old now. He is house trained. Crate trained. He is a good dog and he does pretty well with our family, but he’s had trouble being social with other people outside our household. I’ve found when he’s in new environments he acts a little bit different. He gets a little anxious. He is a jumper, we are trying to train him out of it, but it’s been a slow learning process. When he does jump, we usually turn to the side and say down in a firm tone. Mason is an amazing dog he just needs an owner that can be attentive and can provide a home that allows dogs with a yard. Preferably no apartments or rental because we are dealing with landlord issues right now and that is why we need to rehome him.

**** COURTESY POST - DOG IS NOT AT THE SHELTER **** Milo is a 1-year-old Australian-German Shepherd mix who’s full of energy and potential. This handsome, large pup is up to date on all his vaccines, potty trained, and crate trained. As much as his current family loves him, they feel he deserves more than they can offer due to health challenges, a lack of yard space, and a busy schedule. Milo is a friendly inside dog who has lived with dogs, cats, and kids. He’s great with his furry and human companions, though he enjoys chasing cats (but doesn’t harm them). He’s known to “demand bark” for attention and needs someone who can provide him with the exercise, socialization, and playtime he craves—ideally with a yard to run in. He’s protective and would thrive with an active owner who has time for him. If you have the space and energy to keep up with Milo’s playful spirit, please contact his family. To learn more, reach out to Christina (916) 912-9953 Email christinarisso@yahoo.com All animals are up-to-date on vaccinations (including rabies if over 4 months old), microchipped, and spayed or neutered. All dogs have been been vaccinated with DHPP and Bordatella (kennel cough) and heartworm tested negative (if over 6 months).    All cats have been vaccinated with FVRCP and current on flea control.
