Squeak is 13 years old and is Xochis father (see above) Squeak has mild hearing loss, but gets around great at the Sanctuary. I dont recommend a home for him that has more than 3-4 stairs. He's remarkably healthy and will play fetch.
He loves his daughter Xochi and Id love to see him adopted with her, but it's not necessary. Due to his age, our vet recommended he stay intact. Fostered in Grass Valley.

Max is a 4 year old miniature American Shepherd who weighs 24 pounds and is a bundle of energy! He grew up in a drug house where he was on a chain in the yard but sometimes escaped and ran around the neighborhood.
Looking for a running partner? Max is your boy! He also loves car rides and jumps into the crate to go wherever you go! He loves people and children he knows, but will bark at strangers and needs gentle introductions, Max chases cats.  Fostered in Grass Valley .

I try to rescue an over looked shelter dog each Christmas. (I do this out of pocket, not out of NorCal Aussie Rescues account)
Joy was found in the Home Depot parking lot in Tracy. She's been traumatized and quite head shy...not a doggie for kids.  She had an umbilical hernia which we had removed in  January.
She follows me everywhere and still needs to get fully housebroken. This girl was grossly overweight and is now down to 24 pounds (from 30). 
          
Joy's DNA came back: 43% Chihuahua, 38% Dachshund, 13% Supermutt and 5% Pug.
  
Joy surprised me by going after a dryer ball that rolled down the hall! She likes to play!   

We'd love to find Joy a quiet, adult only home with a patient person to love. Fostered in Grass Valley.

The smallest short-haired girl! Shes about 21 pounds now and eats soooo slowly! She loves being held and will chase a toy. Bear has all her puppy vaccines, is microchipped and ready for her new home. Fostered in Grass Valley. Application required.

Cloud is a goofy, 5 year  old red merle whose elderly owner gave him up. He had never been to a vet and lived outside. This boy is very friendly with all people, not leash trained, will chase cats and is not great with other male dogs. This gorgeous boy weighs 60 pounds.

We had nim neutered and he is now up to date on shots, heartworm negative and microchipped. Fostered in Grass Valley

Xochi is 11 years old and is the offspring of Squeak (posted below). Shes quite agile, likes to play fetch and gets along famously with Squeak as well as all the other dogs at the Sanctuary. She is housebroken and easy on a leash. Her coat is coming in after being shaved due to numerous embedded foxtails which we had removed along with a benign tumor. This girl is sweet and love her Dad.Id love to see her adopted with Squeak.
