ADOPTED – Simon

February 26, 2022
ADOPTED – Meet SIMON, a beautifully marked 70-pound medium coat 3-year-old! SIMON is a sweet boy who wants to be with his people, and loves to play and cuddle. He is mischievous, social, curious, sensitive, and still thinks he might be a lap dog. When giving SIMON any correction (for behavior), his soft eye response is “What’s the problem?” and then “Hugs! More Hugs!” He’ll need gentle guidance to learn basic commands, and of course some supported practice. A play buddy and sturdy toys will make SIMON a happy dog. SIMON gets along well with his foster packmates, travels nicely in the car, is crate-trained, and knows to go potty outside. Overall as you can see in his video, he is very, very sweet.

ADOPTED – CUBBY

February 21, 2022
ADOPTED - CUBBY is a 7-month-old, 33# energizer bunny.  He has an infectious enthusiasm for everything he encounters: dogs, toys, birds flying overhead, etc.  Running & leaping & dashing & pouncing (yes, like a rabbit) & chasing are his favorite activities.  He will throw toys in the air for himself, catch them, & run wild zoomies around the yard, trying to get his foster mom to chase him.  He does love to be chased, but with other dogs he likes to take turns.  His play with his foster sister--an adult border collie--involves chewing on her, especially her tail (live tug toy?), running alongside her, pouncing on her, & repeating the above until both of them have tongues dangling & bodies flopping on the ground without an ounce left.  The older female dog in his foster home is very capable of telling him when she's had enough, but the other dogs are not & sometimes don't appreciate his attentions.  He will keep up this kind of play with another dog until his foster mom takes him back in the house & puts him in his pen or crate for a nap.  He is not mean or aggressive in his play, but he is relentless, his play mocking "herding," so a home with another steady & strong older border collie would be best for him.  He would also do well as a single dog in a border collie experienced home.  He would not be a good candidate for dog park play & exercise.  We don't know how he would be around cats or other animals.

ADOPTED – CINDER

February 21, 2022
ADOPTED - CINDER is a dignified 8-year-old border collie/lab mix of about 45#, who is deaf.  Her lack of hearing doesn't seem to make a bit of difference except in a good way.  Cinder is not bothered at all by noises, including the barking of other dogs.  She finds her way & watches her foster mom attentively for direction.  She is a low-key girl, gentle & devoted.  Cinder loves nothing more than curling on a soft bed, stretching out for deep rubs, padding around the yard with her foster mom, & taking the short walk.  She came to us with a rear leg injury that probably resulted from her leg being tangled in fencing wire; it has left her with a slight hitch in her gait (but no pain), & a slim scar.  She got this injury during the most recent wildfire in Butte County, when she was found stray & injured by firefighters.

ADOPTED – SADIE

February 18, 2022
ADOPTED - SADIE is just about the cutest and sweetest pup you will ever meet. She is a young, rough-coated sable girl, weighing in at 45lbs with room to grow. SADIE has proven herself to be a quick learner and does not like to disappoint. She picked up her name in a matter of days, has not had any accidents in her foster home, and knows what “no” means. Although she does not exactly prefer her crate, she can typically be coaxed in with a treat and tolerates it while her fosters are away from home. SADIE is learning not to jump on people, figuring out what she can and cannot chew on, and realizing that everybody and everything is her friend.

Adopted – Molly

February 16, 2022
Adopted - MOLLY was a great momma to “The Brat Pack” and now it’s her time to shine. Molly’s ideal day is eat, go out and play (i.e. chase birdies in flight, chase a ball) while stopping from time to time to chew a little grass, rinse and repeat. She prefers if her humans come with her but is content to roam the yard on her own or with a canine buddy. Molly will then come in for pets, loving and curling up on the couch with her person, or making herself comfortable on one of the many dog beds around the house (most often the one in foster dad’s office when he is close by, like right now as I write this).
