Tapioca was rescued from the shelter with several of her dessert pals when she was in an overcrowded kennel. Our volunteer took one look into her puppy dog eyes and knew we couldn’t leave her behind. Tapioca weighs 19 pounds and is just the perfect size for all the adventures you have planned. Ready for the sweetest dessert? Adopt Tapioca!      Tapioca is a loving and snuggly gal who’s ready to provide all the sweetest ingredients needed for her family dessert! Tapioca adores her humans and is always ready to shower them in kisses and cuddles. She loves her toys and romps around the house with them as often as possible. As she has blossomed, she has also discovered her love for snuggles on the couch as her humans read a book or watch TV. Tapioca is the perfect dog for those who work from home as she loves being around her humans once she decides you are hers. Like any JRT, Tapioca is very playful and energetic for most of the day (until she is ready to take a long nap). She would be an amazing hiking or jogging companion with her gorgeous long legs. Tapioca’s dream home is one ready to shower her in all the love and affection she deserves. Tapioca is such a sweet girl who has so much to offer and we can’t wait to see all the adventures she will embark on in her forever home!  Tapioca wakes up around 6 AM and goes out for a quick potty before she comes inside for breakfast. After she eats, she’s ready for her morning snuggles and kisses. She goes back and forth between foster mom and dad for pets and love until it’s time for her morning walk. Once she’s home, she lounges in the yard or gets some naps on. She loves her toys almost as much as she loves following her people around and providing them affection. She goes out for another walk in the early evening before she has dinner at 5 PM. In the evening, she cuddles on the couch with her foster humans until she goes out for one last potty and then heads into her crate for the night.  Tapioca has previously lived with dogs and gets along well with them, especially when they are playful like her. She can be a little hesitant when meeting new people but once they win her over she is all in. Tapioca walks well on a leash and is learning some tricks! She is super smart and food motivated. Tapioca is ready to be the sweet treat you’ve been looking for!       Tapioca is an option for homes with previous dog owning experience. Kids should be over the age of 7.January 9, 2025, 3:24 am

Trigger is ok with children over 7 years old. He loves giving and getting lots of attention. Adores treats, walks, car rides and cuddles. He is an active kind of guy, always looking for adventures in everyday life. He is a real character and is full of love for his people.

Story
Bugsy is a great buddy to have around. He is about 18 lbs and around 6- 7 years old. He enjoys going on walks and loves to wander around in the yard in his wheels or scooting along, play with his toys, happy all snuggled up with his people, and just hanging around. Bugsy loves the toys at his foster home and doesn’t mind sharing them. He is the sweetest and most loving guy you will ever meet. He has been around all sizes and breeds of dogs and gets along great with them He enjoys the company of other dogs but he would be just as happy to be an only dog if his person was around most of the time to keep him company. If not then he needs a canine companion for company. Bugsy is very affectionate but doesn’t require a ton of attention to be content.  He is pretty low-maintenance and will happily follow your lead. Bugsy doesn’t use his back legs but do not be fooled since he is still an active guy and can go many places with his wheels or rear harness. He is very good around young kids and lives with one now. Bugsy is exceptionally loving and eager to please. He knows what he is being told and if you are looking for a smarty to be part of your family he is the guy. He will bring lots of warmth and terrier-silliness to your home. Give him a chance and he will steal your heart. Bugsy also needs a new foster home if not adopted. He is now being fostered in Belmont, CA and his adoption fee is $275. Arrangements to meet our dogs occur after an application has been received. Please contact us at dogzonerescue@yahoo.com for more information about this great guy or for an application to adopt.

If you would like the first opportunity to adopt, please fill out an application to be considered.   Adoption Fee: $600   Gingerbread is an option for foster to adopt   Gingerbread is a 4 year old Rat Terrier x Italian Greyhound mix who’s serving up sweetness regardless of the season! Gingerbread was rescued from the shelter during the holiday season and we instantly knew he needed an invite to the DPS cookie exchange so we scooped him up on our sleigh and sped off into the sunset! He helped make our season bright and now he’s ready to head off to his forever home and keep the good times going! Gingerbread weighs 16 pounds and has amazing Dumbo ears that make him catch all the eyes as he walks down the block. Come enjoy a tasty treat and adopt Gingerbread!     Gingerbread is a caterpillar who is ready to find his home that will help him blossom into a butterfly. As he has grown more confident in his foster home, his personality has started to develop, showing us what an amazing dude he is. Gingerbread is more of a cat than a dog, as he finds warm spots to lounge the day away in as he chases the sunshine. Gingerbread is fairly independent but he did befriend the dad in the house and loves his cuddles. He would be an ideal fit for a home looking for quiet and loving companionship. Gingerbread is very treat motivated and eager to please so he has delighted in learning new things. While he is small, he can tackle any adventure you throw his way and has been exploring all the local hiking trails with his foster humans! However, at the end of the day our boy is a total couch potato who would love cuddling up and watching TV! This special boy will be the perfect companion for his human who finds him, we know it! Gingerbread wakes up around 6:30 AM and immediately requests cuddles from his foster humans. He goes out for potty before he has his breakfast. Following his morning meal, he lounges outside in the sunshine or on the couch. He goes on a morning walk around 10 AM and then cozies up under his blankets. He’s fairly content to snooze most of the day away until his afternoon walk followed by dinner around 6:30 PM. He hangs out on the couch or on his bed in the evening. After one last potty break around 10 PM he heads to his crate for the night. Gingerbread currently lives with two medium sized dogs and they coexist well. He is not super playful but they enjoy spending time together. Gingerbread walks well on a leash and enjoys his outings. His dream home is one willing to give him the patience and space he needs to blossom. He is still learning how to “dog” and will need a home who is understanding of his quirks. Gingerbread promises that if you give him a chance he will provide you a lifetime of delicious love!     Gingerbread is only an option for homes with shy dog experience. Adults only for Gingerbread.  January 10, 2025, 2:32 pm
