Story
I am looking to rehome my 3 yr old doggo Snoopy. He is the sweetest boy, and very intelligent. I sadly am relocating for a job to the East Coast and would not be able to take him as it would be too stressful for him and too humid. He is easy to train and loves to put his mind to work. I adopted him 8 months ago and have been working diligently with him on reinforcing good behavior and following basic commands, but he is definitely capable of learning so much more! He thrives in an environment where he can play and run, but he does enjoy snuggles as well after a long day! While he has been a part of my single household, I think he would do well in a household with other dogs and even children. He is crate trained and is improving daily on walking without leash reactivity. He is highly food motivated (being part rottweiler), so I have to keep food out of reach at all times (including keeping him out of the kitchen when I am cooking).

Canela is the sweetest girl just looking for a home to give love and be given love. She loves belly rubs, treats, playing with her toys and to follow her owners around like a little shadow. Canela has recently had an incident and is not going to be able to stay with her owners anymore. This is kind of an urgent matter. We just hope to find this sweet girl a loving home.

Mocha

German Shorthaired Pointer

Female, Adult
Oceano, CA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Mocha is 5 years old. We purchased her from a breeder when she was a pup. She is a very loving dog and always wants to be around her people. She loves to cuddle and sleep with you. She is a hyperactive dog and needs daily exercise or a large yard to run. She loves cats and wants to lick them and cuddle with them (if they let her). She is great with kids. She is a protective dog and a great guard dog. She loves car rides and won't ever turn down a pup cup from Starbucks. With great hesitation and heartbreak, I am looking to re-home her because my schedule has changed and I unfortunately cannot exercise her like I used to. She needs a lot of activity as this breed does, otherwise she gets restless and gets into things. She would do best in a home where her owners are home a lot or on a farm type setting where she can get a lot of activity. Ideally, an owner who is familiar with German Short Haired Pointers, because they are a unique breed.

Story
Nala is an incredibly loving, kind dog. She is 11 years old. She has a lot of anxiety and needs a family who can spend a lot of time with her. She loves to cuddle and keep humans company. Her anxiety causes her to act out, urinate, try to escape, etc. Our family has young kids and our lifestyle is no longer conducive to adequately fostering Nala’s ongoing needs.

Story
We are looking to rehome a loyal, smart, and loving companion named Ariel. She is a 4-year-old German shepherd who needs a new home. Ariel is a friendly and playful dog who loves to go for walks and play fetch. She is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. She is good with kids, cats, and other dogs. Ariel's previous owner had to move to another residence that does not allow pets, so Ariel is currently staying at a foster home. We hope to find a forever family who can give her the attention, exercise, and love she deserves. Ariel will make a great dog-sister for your family. She will be your best friend for life. We can arrange a meet-and-greet visit so that you can make sure Ariel is a good fit for you. There will be a rehoming fee.
