Josie
Josie is more than a sweetheart! She is a 10 year old Border Collie mix and is around 35 lbs. Josie is an older gal so she is pretty mellow. She loves car rides and paws you to make sure you keep petting her.
She would be perfectly content if she just to spend her days at the foot of a couch getting pet. Josie is not great with other dogs or cats – so we're looking for a home where she will be an only dog, get some exercise, but not at dog parks.
Josie is in Lincoln, CA.

Zach
Zach is a 4 year old black tri who has seasonal/environmental allergies. Living in Redding, it’s hard for his owner to control his environmental allergies during the summer and fall. He gets weekly baths and prednisone on an as needed basis. If he gets too much prednisone however, it lowers his immunity and he'll get urinary tract infections. This past winter, he did really well, he didn't itch and got a bath with medicated shampoo once every three weeks. But spring is here and symptoms are coming back, he’s losing his coat and his vet confirmed that a cooler climate with fewer broad leaf trees would be better for him.
Zach lives in a townhouse with no yard, and is content with a little fetch playing in the morning, and a walk in the evening. He does not need a lot of exercise, is a wonderful companion, and happily hangs around the house with his owner. Zach is in Redding. Application required.

Bindi
Bindi is a 5 year old red tri who weighs 45 lbs. She knows many tricks like
sit, stay, wait, lie down, roll over, high five, come, heel, go to bed.
She's housebroken, likes to lounge on her owner's bed, and needs plenty of
exercise. She can be aggressive towards larger dogs, and is leery of
strangers and needs time to warm up to them, especially men.
She's been a companion to a single woman her entire life, and now her owner
is moving to Australia and can't take her with her.
She lives with a cat and actually lets the cat nuzzle her, but chases the
cat when it runs! She resource guards her special toys and bones and won't
give them up without a hassle. She would do best with an experienced owner
who will work with her consistently to curb her possessiveness and her
guarding tendencies. Bindi is in Cupertino. Application required.

Thunder
Thunder is a 35 lb, 7 year old mini black tri who loves long leash walks or running off leash in a fenced in area. Because he can get adventurous and run off, on leash activities or dog parks might be best for him. An active person or family with grown children who can participate in his active lifestyle would make the perfect home for Thunder. He has suffered from not being able to participate in an active lifestyle for over 2 years because his owner suffered from foot injuries. Additionally, his family now includes a toddler, and Thunder is intolerant of the toddler’s unpredictability.
We’re looking for an adult home where Thunder will get more exercise and mental stimulation. Thunder is in Vacaville. Application required.

Alma
Alma is a 5 year old mini Red Merle girl. She was rescued from a bad breeding operation when she was 18 months old. She lived outside 24/7 and wasn’t socialized. Her rescuer has given her a great life, but Alma is desperately afraid of her husband and will hide when he’s around. Her only other issue is that she bolts if given the opportunity……..and she can run fast and far! So the ideal home for her is with a woman, quiet household, good fencing or apartment where she can’t bolt out the door.
She’s sweet and friendly when she meets people on walks (and on leash) and she is friendly towards children, too. She has lived with two female dogs, doesn’t bark, is fine left alone in the yard or the house, and likes her rubber chew toys and bones.
Alma is in Santa Cruz. Application required.

Callie
Callie is an active, friendly 2.5 year old red tri whose owners purchased
her as a puppy. She has had excellent care, and very good training,
including Family dog 1, 2, 3, 4,and 5 at Marin Humane, plus some beginning
agility.
She's very smart and agile at only 40 pounds. She is reactive to other dogs and has shown leash reactivity & aggression. She also likes to guard her
yard and people. She has lived with teenagers, but not small children.
For Callie to thrive, she needs an experienced handler and lots of
exercise and mental stimulation. She will not do well in an urban setting where she'd encounter other dogs going on leash walks. We also think she'd do best in an adult home with a handler who would run her, do agility with her and make her a priority.
She goes to the beach to play ball and does
fine with the dogs that she meets there regularly. Owner is going back to
work full time and cannot give her the attention she needs. Callie gets
along with the cat in her home, and lives in Larkspur. Application required.

Quinn
Quinn is an active 8-year-old, 60-lb. mix who was adopted as a puppy from the Santa Rosa Humane Society. He has had obedience training and knows Stay, down, Free, load up, heel, around back, all the way. With hand signals.
He sleeps on his dog bed at night, is good in the car, but gets bored if left in the yard alone all day and can dig and get into mischief.
His owners had children and find they don't have time to exercise him daily, so they are hoping to rehome him with folks who are active and can take him along for exercise.
He grew up with his brother, and both killed chickens, cats, 2 opossum and 1 skunk.
He is super high energy and needs to run DAILY. He likes fetch and returns it nicely. He's lived with cats, but strange cats in the yard are TROUBLE! He loves people, is very loyal to "his" people, is high energy and well trained. Quinn is in Santa Rosa. Application required.
