Story

Bronx is an incredibly lovable, loyal, and energetic mixed breed seeking his forever home. Recently adopted from the shelter, we quickly realized our 1-bedroom apartment isn’t the ideal environment for him. Bronx thrives in spacious areas where he can run and play freely. He’s a playful giant who enjoys the company of big dogs that match his energy, and he gets along wonderfully with our smaller 20 lb dog. Bronx is fantastic with children and has a natural instinct to protect and care for them. He’s great with my niece and nephew, and we believe he would be an excellent guardian and playmate in a home with a yard and kids. This cuddly giant loves to play fetch, engage in tug-of-war, and run around until he’s happily exhausted. Bronx would flourish in a home with a fenced yard filled with love and play. Why He’ll Steal Your Heart: Calm during grooming: Easy to bathe. Affectionate: Loves giving/receiving kisses. Great car companion: stays calm during long trips. Plays well with kids.

Story

Justice is a 7 year old rescue from the Dixon/Vacaville area. Justice has been in my care since about 4 months old. He has no previous health conditions. He has never bitten a person. He is housebroken and crate trained. Justice is very loving, affectionate, and playful. Justice loves running and playing with other dogs. He does have a tendency to become jealous over sharing food, treats, and affection from people with other dogs, he has growled and bitten other dogs due to this behavior issue. I am looking for a loving home for Justice.

Oceano (pups)

Union City, CA

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

I received Océano who I call pups, when he was roughly 6m, he is 2 now. At the time, I was unaware of allergies to long hair dogs. And unaware my daughter is allergic to all dogs. She suffers from many health conditions and while trying my best to keep them separated so he does not need to rehome, my best efforts have not been successful and she continues to be affected. He is also developing behaviors due to the lack of attention. I work a lot and do not have time to give him the attention he is needing and my daughter can’t play with him. Océano is an anxious, high energy dog with a big personality and a big attention seeker. When he sees my daughter is getting attention and not him, he misbehaves. He needs to go to a family that has the time, patience, and energy for him or a family with other small/medium dogs for him to play with. He loves to play catch and tug a war and will bring toys to you when he wants to play. And he loves to be close and cuddly.

We also have an Alaskan Malamute and we can't handle both. Nova is an expert digger so dirt yards are easy for her to escape. She can't jump but she loves finding ways to escape.

We rescued Phoenix 7 years ago and we consider ourselves very lucky to have her. She is smart, house trained, and excellent with kids, cats and most other dogs. Unfortunately, the place we are moving does not allow pets. She is the sweetest and friendliest pet we have ever had, so we want to find a home that will give her the love she is sure to give them.
