To apply or see more of Indy, go to: https://www.heartsforpawsrescue.com/219873/2023/12/3/indy Hello there! I'm Indy. I'm a true Christmas miracle! My HFP story begins with a close call – I was set to be euthanized at a county shelter in Sacramento. It wasn't my fault, just a lack of space. But guess what? Fate had other plans for me, and I spent the holidays in a cozy foster home, waiting for my forever family to come and scoop me up! I’m friendly when meeting people and I had been rocking it in the shelter yard with other dogs! My fosters say I'm super sweet and lovable, despite being a bit older. But hey, age is just a number, right? I love laying by your side while you work, and I'm always up for a game of play. Walks? Oh, they're my absolute favorite! I'm a well-mannered pup, potty trained and great in my kennel when my foster leaves the house. A real winner, or so they say! Now, I used to have some bumps on my abdomen but they were nothing serious. They sound scary because their called a ridiculous name: hemangiomas. Weird, I know. But they are no biggy. Look em’ up. They are non-cancerous growths and they have successfully been removed at UC Davis! I take it all in stride. I've still got pep in my step and a heart full of love. More info about my health journey is coming soon, but for now, I'm just grateful for my change of fate. If you're looking for a sweet, seasoned companion who's ready to bring joy into your life, that's me!

Story
To apply or learn more about Buddy, go to: https://www.heartsforpawsrescue.com/219873/buddy-fozzy Buddy (Formerly known as Fozzy) was adopted through HFP 3 years ago, but now in need of a new home. He is an easy going guy who would do wonderful in a quiet suburban neighborhood. He loves naps and spends much of the day sleeping on the couch. While Buddy did well meeting dogs 3 years ago while in our program, he has been reactive towards dogs since being adopted and should be an only dog in the home. He is very happy without dogs and will live a very happy life with humans but does not need to interact with dogs. Buddy is very sweet to all people. He would do well in a home with kids 10+ . Housetrained, no separation anxiety, moderate energy and well behaved! Adoption Donation Sponsored by HFP. You might be wondering what “sponsored” means. A dog is sponsored when their foster or a donor loves them so much that they cover the adoption donation for a future adopter. This in hopes that the pup finds his or her forever family ASAP!

To apply or learn more, go to: https://www.heartsforpawsrescue.com/219873/2024/6/10/nellie Meet Nellie! Nellie is a darling old lady (about 8 years old) who enjoys sunbathing and (short) walks in the grass. She was recently pulled from Avenal Shelter and saved from euthanasia at the last minute thanks to a foster! Months and months of enduring the shelter life only to be put to sleep there — no dog deserves this. While she has tested well with dogs and people at the shelter, she has been at the shelter so long that she deserves time to decompress! The decompression period varies for each dog but one should expect at least about 3 weeks to allow a dog time to start feeling comfortable. At this time, we are recommending that Nellie go to a dog free home. More info to come! Adoption Donation includes: Spay, Rabies, DHPP, Bordatella, and microchip. Interested in adopting? 1.

**Bowie is a courtesy post and is NOT a Yolo SPCA dog. All adoption interest will be forwarded to his owners for review.**   With his big smile and sweet personality, Bowie is a total catch! Bowie is a stunning 2/3-year-old guy who is looking for his fur-ever home. He was adopted from a local shelter, but unfortunately, isn't a good match for his current family. Rather than returning him to the shelter, his family is wanting to rehome him as a private party. He is fully grown and weighs about 45lbs. Bowie is a cuddle bug and athlete wrapped up in an adorable brindle package. He loves to play, especially fetch, and is looking for an active home to keep his busy body happy. After a day of fun, he loves nothing more than cuddling up on the couch for snuggles and kisses. His favorite pastimes also include sunbathing and shredding his toys. Bowie loves other dogs and would thrive with another active dog in the home to wrestle with. He also could be a great companion for someone who has lots of friends with dogs for him to play with. The main reason Bowie is being rehomed is he is too rambunctious for the family's other small older dog. Bowie has done well living with dog-savvy cats with a slow introduction and proper supervision. Bowie has done well meeting kids and could do well living with kids older than 10 years old. Bowie has been doing well learning all his basic manners but is still a young guy who would benefit from continued training. He is very food-motivated which helps with his training. He is house and crate-trained. Bowie is a total lovebug, but is fearful of men and takes some time to warm up to men. He will bark and growl, but with patience, he can warm up and feel comfortable. He needs a family dedicated to making sure they do slow introductions with men and help Bowie succeed. He would highly benefit from professional training with a positive reinforcement trainer who specializes in fearful dogs. Bowie is neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date with his vaccines. He is heartworm-negative, has been kept up-to-date with his monthly preventive, and will come with preventive doses to last until the end of the year.   Bowie's rehoming fee is $50. He will come with his crate, toys, food, and the rest of his supplies.   **Bowie is a courtesy post and is NOT a Yolo SPCA dog. All adoption interest will be forwarded to his owners for review.**  November 5, 2024, 1:55 pm

Story
**This is a courtesy post. Pikachu is NOT a YCSPCA dog and all adoption inquiries will be sent to his caretaker.** Pikachu, I choose you! Pikachu is a 6-year-old handsome hunk of love looking for his fur-ever home. He is your typical house hippo who loves to chill and go for leisurely strolls around the neighborhood. He is obsessed with tug of war and cuddling on the couch with his foster mom. Pikachu is fully grown and weighs about 70lbs, however, he could probably lose a little bit of weight. Pikachu was rescued from a high-kill shelter in Southern California after he was placed on the euthanasia list. He found himself at the shelter after his previous owner was arrested and no one was able to take over his care. He previously lived with a small dog, who was adopted from the shelter. Pikachu is a quiet and gentle soul who is looking for a family that enjoys pittie cuddles and slobbery kisses. He is the perfect mix of independent and social and enjoys attention, but also is happy to keep to himself when you are busy. He is confident and curious and enjoys venturing out into the world to check out all the smells. Like the character, Pikachu, he’ll basically do nothing until you want him to do something and then he is so game!  Pikachu has done well living with another large dog and has been very respectful of her setting boundaries with him. He could do well living with another chill dog, or as an only dog. Pikachu has never been around cats, so his foster mom isn't sure how he would do living with them. Pikachu seems like he could do well living with respectful kids 10 years and older. Pikachu is house and mostly crate-trained. He is a very food-motivated boy and has been doing great learning his basic manners. He has done well being left alone in his crate for short periods and overnight. Pikachu is a sweet and loving boy and could be a great first dog for someone looking for an easygoing companion. If he sounds like he might be the boy for you, email us at dogs@yolospca.org! Pikachu is neutered, up-to-date with his vaccinations, and up-to-date with his monthly preventatives. **This is a courtesy post. Pikachu is NOT a YCSPCA dog and all adoption inquiries will be sent to his caretaker.** November 7, 2024, 12:17 pm

Meet Donner! This 1-year-old German Shorthaired Pointer mix is eager for an adventure with you! His smile and sunny disposition will never fail to brighten your day.Donner is looking for a home that’s active and will be committed to teaching him basic commands and manners.

He has done great in a home setting and loves meeting new people and dogs. He’ll do well as an only dog or with a dog sibling! We do not know how he is with cats, but he could have potential to have a cat sibling that is good with cats if the owners are willing to work on slowly introducing them. 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.

Schatzie loves to be held and is very affectionate. She will walk up to you and rest her head on your hand or lap. She is slowly learning how to play catch after watching our resident dog and loves holding a toy in her mouth at all times. Squeaker toys are her jam and there are never too many tennis balls in her opinion. Often times you will find her rolling in the grass and springing back up to all four and ready for the next adventure. She rides well in cars, walks well on a leash and is potty trained. Everyone who meets her says she is an absolute sweetheart. The instant we met, our hearts melted, and could not agree any more.

Story
Zeus is very smart and playful, he loves toys and learns routines quickly. Zeus loves to play chase and tug anytime. He is learning his manners well, but he still barks and gets excited easily so he may do best somewhere he has a little space to play on his own. He is very friendly with other people, he wants to play and will go get his toys and attempt to engage you in tug of war. He likes to chase balls but is still learning “drop”. If you have a couple toys to alternate with, he will fetch. He loves belly rubs. Zeus loves his treats but is pretty mellow about mealtimes. He will take food from your hand gently. We give him food 3 times a day and he often eats it slowly throughout the day, he doesn’t gobble food or overeat. When we need to give him pills he will eat a spoon of peanut butter with meds with no problem. Zeus crates well; he will go in there easily if you point inside and often takes naps in there on his own. His foster parents are home a lot so he is a little spoiled with attention, but he is used to being in his crate alone for a few hours at a time. He is both affectionate and sometimes self-sufficient. He likes to be with you or cuddle, and he also seems comfortable napping in the ‘other’ room. We have not tested Zeus with cats but he has a strong chase/hunt instinct and always goes after birds or squirrels. Zeus is sweet but he does get excited and can jump or be a rough player. He is learning not to jump up so much, but he does seem to like standing up on his hind legs. He is also pretty vocal when he is playing

Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Alka is a very sweet girl who needs a family that will help her feel safe in the world. Alka will do best in a home that is calm & on the quiet side so older, quieter kids in the home would be ok. Once you have earned her trust she is a typical Boxer goofball who does zoomies, loves cuddles, lap time, hand & face licks, hugs and will be by your side as you go about your day. She gets along well with her foster brother now after a bit of an extended introduction. She is curious about cats and will likely learn that chasing them when they move quickly isn’t going to be accepted. Alka needs a calm, patient home that can slowly help her feel more secure about meeting new people and learning about things she has apparently not experienced before. She walks nicely on a leash but is fearful of people in general so we are taking new experiences slowly and making sure they are positive. Alka is a smart, intuitive girl, has not had a single accident in the house and learned to use the dog door in about ten minutes. Alka is quiet and calm in her crate when needed during the day and all night.
