Story
Cali came to live with our family as her precious owner had to move out of the country for work. She is 7 years old and very good with kids and living indoors. Cali needs a caring home that provide her a fair amount of attention and supervision. She was a rescue as a pup and has separation anxiety and containment phobia. She is leash trained and house trained (with a person present). Cali is great with kids and smaller dogs.

Story
Pepper is a terrific female black bully mix that is super deserving of a loving home that I’m currently fostering. Pepper is playful, friendly, and calm. She gets along well with all people, children included. I sit outside with her in the front yard and she is not fazed one bit by people walking, jogging, or bicycling nearby…she just sits or lays calmly. When watering the grass she zips and zooms around the backyard…I call this having the wiggles…tossing a tennis ball also gets her going with the wiggles. Treats are still a novelty and treasure to Pepper...when giving her a treat she tosses it up in the air and runs circles around the treat before eating it, super cute! Her diet is simple as she prefers kibble over wet dog food…Purina chicken and rice kibble is her new favorite. Pepper is 1½ years old, spayed, up-to-date on her vaccines, and is in overall good health. Please consider adding this baby girl to your family!
