Sharkey – Sebastopol, CA

SharkeyCollageMedHello Handsome! Nice to meet’cha! This is Sharkey. He was found running in the streets with a female pit bull and brought to a Willows shelter as strays. We swooped him up because we couldn’t resist that face! He is about 2 yrs old, about 45lbs, energetic, super friendly and great on a leash. He has been known to be good with female dogs;  we are taking his intros to males slowly as he was recently neutered.  He is a rescue favorite and we hope to find him a foster or forever home. Let us know if you are interested. If your information is not yet on file, our application can be found here: http://www.bullterrierrescue.org/?page_id=572.

Wiley – San Francisco, CA – – Adoption Pending

WileySitNameHe’s a 10mo guy who is great with dogs (his best friend is a male Great Dane). He was good with a cat in his former home but he is too interested in the ones in his foster home. He’s been around an infant but his exuberance is better suited for older children. He does have a habit of scarfing down objects from the floor so he’ll need to be watched to ensure that he doesn’t go through another obstruction surgery. If your information is not yet on file, our application can be found here: http://www.bullterrierrescue.org/?page_id=572.

Wiley Fun Fact: He totally respects the boundaries given by older dogs. When the Great Dane determines that play time is over, he simply drapes a big paw over Wiley who understands that this means “Game Over”.

Howie – Portland, OR – Adoption Pending

HowieShelterName

This gentle, big guy is amazing! He is truly a solid fellow with a super thick tail, huge paws, a huge head and a very soft mouth. Howie is really a big puppy and loves to explore everything on our walks. He is great on a leash and has to smell everything in his path. This social guy loves to check back with you during walks; and he has been quiet in his crate so far. Howie’s about 3 years old; and he weighs 55lbs.  He seems a little too excited when he sees other dogs but we hope he calms down a bit after his 9/25 neuter.

Note from Howie:  Hi! My name is Howie! I am amPEEdextrous – I can lift my right or left leg, all the way or part way, squat or aim at the air, or a tree/pole! Teehee…sometimes I dribble on my foster mom’s feetsies when I’m in hurry! Byeeeeeee!

Winnie, Alameda

WinnieNameWinnie2NameWinnie is a delightful 2-3 year old girl who is very affectionate and loves to snuggle.  She seems to be housebroken, is crate-trained and will need a refresher on leash training.  She will have accidents in her crate but only if there is a blanket in it.  Winnie loves playing with water and has been fine with the standard poodles in her foster home.  She has also played wonderfully with a 10-month Bull Terrier male.  Winnie is currently in the Sacramento area.  Winnie is about 35 pounds.  Please enjoy this video of the little dumpling.

 

Chai – Turlock

ChaiChaiNBFFNameChaiFaceNameChaiHead2Name

8/27 Update:  Chai has fully recovered from her mange and skin infections; and she has been spayed.  This incredibly sweet little 36lb girl is now ready for an adventure in a new home.  Many thanks to Robert Waugh for fostering this little pumpkin, nursing her back to health and giving her some structure and boundaries.  She is great with the male pit bull in her foster home but can be dominant with the female pit bull there.

…………………………………………………………………..
Meet Chai (rhymes with Hi), an incredibly sweet and cuddly girl that we pulled from the Modesto shelter this week. She’s being treated for a blood infection from a severe skin infection and a likely weakened immune system. Her interim foster mom reports that she is getting perkier with each day and is a super 31lb snuggle bug. Chai will need to gain a few pounds and recover from her infections before she can be spayed so she won’t be available for several weeks. She’s about 1.5 to 2 years old; so far, she seems interested in other dogs and not in a bad way. I just want her to recover and decompress before we attempt any dog:dog introductions. Thank you, Kari Young Paradiso, for pulling her, giving up your day to spend it at the vet with her and for the interim housing. Please stay tuned for more information on this little pumpkin!

Miko – San Francisco

MikoName4yo Miko is a delightful tank girl! Her owner was seriously disabled in an auto accident a few years ago and had to move back in with his mother. Sadly, she passed away earlier this year and the house has been sold. Miko’s owner is now living with a friend in no-pets housing. Miko LOVES other dogs, even the ones that snarf at her. She lived with (and was bossed around by) a 10lb female chihuahua. She ignores cats as long as they don’t move; she’ll chase dashing cats but has not caught up to any of them yet. Miko is 42 pounds but can benefit from a slight Weight Watchers program. This chunky busybody is crate, leash and house trained. She’s also a trancer!
