Update: overnight placement secured 🐶

Help Needed!!

Hello Friends!

We have 7 orphaned bottle baby puppies urgently in need of an overnight foster so we can secure a longer term plan. We will provide all the supplies!

We need to secure a foster by 6:00 pm tonight. These babies are too young to stay in the shelter overnight.

If you can help, please call or text us at 408-605-7414

Thank you!!

🍪✨ Gingerbread man is here to remind you… he still needs his adoption fee sponsored and a few of his furry friends do too! 🍪🐶

If you’re unable to adopt this holiday season, you can still make a huge difference by sponsoring a dog’s adoption fee during our Sponsor-a-Dog-Athon, running now through January 3rd! 🎁💛

Here’s how to spread some holiday cheer:
⭐ Scan the QR code or click the link in bio
⭐ Include the ID number of the dog you’re sponsoring in the comment box
⭐ Want a kennel tag displayed? Add your name or dedication (family, business, “in honor of…”, etc.)

Your sponsorship helps give these sweet pups the gift of a home for the holidays and they’re all wagging their tails hoping you’re the one to make it happen. 🐾💕

Sisters, Sisters 💕

The Adopt-A-Versary of Aven brings a heart-warming tale of two German Shepherd sisters who found themselves at the Animal Services Center last December.

The Clark family were delighted to welcome Aven into their home last holiday season but were heartbroken at the thought of leaving her sibling behind. Rochelle Clark used the power of social media to put out a plea for someone to adopt sister, Zara. Her appeal worked and Zara was adopted soon after!

The happy story doesn't end there-The Clark family stayed in contact with Zara's adoptive family (pictured below on a playdate)!

"Aven is such an amazing addition to our home. She is smart and loving and BEAUTIFUL. We'll have people ask, 'Who is your breeder?' No one assumes such a pretty purebred came from the animal shelter," Rochelle wrote.

"I can't say enough good things about pet adoption. These animals have so much to give. I hope our story helps encourage people to visit a local animal shelter and give a pet a loving home."

Feeling inspired? We have many sibling pups waiting for families and maybe a future social or two. Check our "Santa's reindeer" litter of five, Bunny and Sam or Sable and Shadow.

Not ready to adopt? Please consider sponsoring the adoption fee for one of our deserving shelter pals.
