Story
This is Jack. He is 9 years old, neutered, housebroken and up top date on his vaccines. Jack is a great dog. Unfortunately, I have been under- or unemployed for two years now and I simply don't have the resources to provide for him anymore. Jack is very protective of me. Whenever he perceives a threat to me, he instinctively stands between me and the threat. So, trips to the dog park aren't very fun--he's always on high alert. However, he has been to doggie day care at least 100 times and he very much enjoys interacting with the other dogs. Jack was raised around three other dogs and he got along fine with them. Jack loves to walk and be outside. I often let him off leash as he rarely gets more than 25 yards away from me. Jack, like most beagles, has a loud bark but he only barks at appropriate times--knock on the door, etc. Really, I don't want him to let him go but I can't find anywhere to live in my price range that will accept a pet.

Story
Hi. I’m Finn!  I'm a happy, friendly boy and LOVE LOVE LOVE to meet new people. Sometimes I can't help it and want to say hi to everyone that passes by. I like other dogs, too, and enjoy a good game of "chase and be chased". I like it so much that some dogs think my greeting can be a little over the top but most want to play like me but I will chill if told to. I love walks and like to sniff everything. I'm great on leash as long as you use my front clip harness.  I don't pull with the front clip and it's easy to put on. I’m working hard on training and feel I have mastered sit, down, stay, shake and off. I am really a perfect walking buddy. But I love my walks and love to go out with my people.  Even though I love other dogs, sometimes I need to be reminded to share. However, if it’s a tug-of-war rope then GAME ON. I’ll play tug all day long!  If you have a swimming spot nearby, I'm in, literally. I ride nicely in the car and jump right in. I'm ready to roll. Even though l like other dogs, I really would be happy with my very own person. My foster family takes me to German Shepherd meetups and I’ve done great!  Like I said, I'm a friendly boy just waiting for that perfect family that wants to have fun and go places. Don't get me wrong, I can be a chill, snuggle buddy too and love to cuddle my foster dad in the mornings. I am  happy to liet at your side while you work or if youre just reading a book.  If you are looking for a great out-and-about boy, and have lots of energy and time to spend with me, come see me and we can be friendls. I really would like my own family soon. It's been a while and I am a super good boy. I have been told that I am mnore handsome in person. I am not reactive to dogs and I would love my own family, hopefully with a dog. I love to play. I'll be waiting with my foster family in Mountain View.

Story
I'm Ari, my friends call me R-Dog. I'm 2 years old, mostly German Shepherd with a sprinkle of Doberman - a great mix that gives me my svelte shape and sleek black coat with tan tinted toes and feet. And in case you didn't notice, I have ginormous ears. I am super cute! I'm also super sweet and love attention. I'm kind of a lap dog sometimes but I absolutely LOVE exploring the world around me, too! Going on walks is one of my favorite things—I just can't get enough of all the wonderful smells! I walk pretty good on leash and love to get in the car and go for rides. I prefer the front seat where I can curl up and be close to you but I'll hang in the back, too.  I"m pretty chill on walks and basically mind my own but once in while something startles me and I get scared and bark and carry on a bit too much. If another dog gives me the hairy eyeball, I get too defensive and need to be reminded it's all ok. You see, I was adopted as a wee pup but my family lost interest in me and after a while they just left me in the back yard. I didn't get the greatest chance to meet new people and see new things. My friends at the rescue took me back and I'm learning so much "dog". They tell me I'm really doing well and what a smart, sweet girl I am.   I'm pretty friendly with other dogs that are calm and easy going greeters and once we meet and I know it's all good, I LOVE to play. I also like walking with my dog friends - we have a blast together!  My other most favorite thing is WATER - I LOVE THE WATER. Sometimes I get to swim in a pond or the creek and I LOVE IT and can't wait to jump in. You can usually find me lounging in my wading pool.  I grew up with a cat so I might be able to live with one. I don't think I have a desire to chase things but I'm curious. I'm comfortable going into stores and have no issues with floors or stairs. I think I would really enjoy a family or person that takes me to new places and lets me explore the world. I need adventure and excitement - what girl doesn't!  With a little patience and love, I know I'll grow into the best companion anyone could ask for. If you want to meet me, I'm hanging out in Santa Rosa and would love to say hi.  You like this dog...now what? Please take 3-4 minutes and complete our application form at:  https://petstablished.com/adoption_form/42179/generic.  Our adoption team will quickly contact you by phone or email (watch your spam please) to see if it's a match!.  If you are already approved to adopt, please contact your Adoption Counselor and they will help you set up a meeting.  You can also sponsor Ari by clicking here.

Story
Hi there, I'm Jackson, a 12-14 month-old German Shepherd. I've been told I'm a super sweet boy, and I like to think I live up to that reputation. I'm about 80-85 lbs, tall and handsome. You may notice in my pictures I have one ear up and one down. I'm working on getting the down ear up and sometimes I succeed but I think the look gives me character, don't you think?  I'm a healthy, happy young boy with enough energy to play, hike, swim (I absolutely love the water) and do all the fun stuff but I can also chlll out with a nice bone and watch some tv with you. I am crate trained if needed and sleep through the night wherever you are. Remember, I'm still a younster even though I'm a big tall boy and still get the zoomies, I'll need training so I can be my bestest self. I totally adore the people in my circle of trust and thrive on attention and love! I haven't quite mastered the art of meeting new people and can be a little barky and pushy in my personal safety zones, like the home and car. I will need a little help with this and would do best in a home that doesn't have a lot of strangers coming and going - at least to start out and while I build my confidence. Doggo friends are cool and I can meet them with no issues at all. I think I would do well with another playful, confident dog pal in the home. Once I know who you are, we're rock solid buddies. I didn't want to get in the car at first but now I can't wait to jump in and go for a ride. I do like to hang out the window, which I know isn't safe, but some slow, country drives where I could do this safely would be great. Of course I can ride nicely in the car if I must. I'm pretty good on my leash, and do best on a front clip harness. I don't bark and carry on when I see other dogs out and about. I know my basics and work well for tasty treats. I do like to stick by my person and I have INCREDIBLE recall and will come charging back to you if you ask me to. Eager to please doesn't even begin to cover it—I live for those moments when I know I've done something right. In short, I'm a nice young pup with heaps of potential. I love to please my peeps and my current BFF tells me I'm going to be the bestest boy for the luckiest family. I do need training as I'm still a youngster and I need someone that helps me learn to meet new people when they come over to visit.  My foster's grandmother came for a 2 week visit and I was her favorite ! Truth ! So what do you say? Ready to embark on this journey together? I will be waiting in Auburn.  You like this dog...now what?

Hi; I’m Holden! I’m 12 years old, and I absolutely love meeting people—everyone I see is a new friend and I will go with anyone who wants to take me for a walk.  When it comes to dogs, I’m pretty chill. I’ll say hi, maybe hang out for a bit, but then I like to do my own thing. When you leave our house, I might cry because I do want you to stay. I get over it but I love the company of friends.  Now, cats... let’s just say I’m very interested! I might want to chase them, so I’m probably not the best fit for a home with cats. And squirrels... duh...they get me excited ! I’m proud to say I have nice house manners and haven’t had any accidents. I am a super good boy. Even though a comfy home is what I’m looking for and I love lounging around, I think leash walks are fun and I know they’re good exercise, so I don't mind going out at all.  I don’t react to anything around me when I’m on a stroll, well maybe except the pesky squirrel or cat. I won't hurt them but they do catch my eye. I’ve got a condition called carpal hyperextension in my front legs, but it doesn’t stop me from enjoying a nice outdoor walk. But something you should know about me is that hardwood floors can be tricky for me. It's not too bad at all, just letting you know. I am good !  I’ve got a great appetite and my hair is super soft. My weight’s good, though I could probably lose a couple of pounds. Also, sometimes I get a little anxious when left alone, but I’m adjusting and only whine for a minute or two especially when my foster Mom's friends leave. My foster mom says that I am really chill and so sweet ! Hah !  Need someone to keep you company around the house? I’m really the bestest boy you could ask for! Mom also says I walk nicely on leash and don't pull.  I’ll be waiting with my foster mom in Elk Grove. You like this dog...now what?
