KoKo

Unicorn alert! Sweet, gentle KoKo has the look of a spaniel somethin’-somethin’. His beautiful wavy black coat is a pure delightful to run your fingers through. He weighs 27 pounds. KoKo has been terrific with kiddos while in our care, and is good with other dogs AND cats. In the sheltering world, we call a […]
Peanut

Who likes ’em sassy? Peanut, age three months, is smart, curious, bossy, fearless, and playful. She is also cuddly and very sweet. She’s doing very well with other dogs here, and seems very appropriate with cats as well. Peanut currently weighs nine pounds. The transferring shelter called her a Min Pin mix, but we can’t […]
Kona

Dear, sweet Kona is back in our care through absolutely no fault of her own. The adopter’s child was scared of her, and we totally understand why they brought her back. They emphasized that Kona was a delightful guest and extremely good company. This very sweet, unusually calm girl is excellent with other dogs as […]
Willow

Willow was adopted from us as a puppy a little over two years ago. We’re not sure what happened in the interim, but Willow was found living as a stray at the Caltrans maintenance station in Camp Connell. The staff were able to bring her to Calaveras County Animal Services, where her microchip was scanned. […]
Niecy

Available Friday 1/24. Niecy, a French bulldog (“Frenchie”), was likely not a cherished companion before coming into our care. The veterinarian who spayed her for us said that four-year-old Niecy had had “at least” five c-sections in her short life, likely churning out litter after litter for profit. Those days are officially behind her! Despite […]
B.K.

B.K. stands for “Big Kitty.” This gorgeous seal point boy appears much larger than his actual 12 pounds due to his absolutely magnificent coat. His owner moved into assisted living, and B.K. now finds himself in search of a new beginning. He’s a bit overwhelmed at the moment, as he’s a brand-new arrival, but he’s […]
Dakota and Doc

UPDATE: Dakota adopted 3/22. Mom was a Golden Retriever. Dad was the neighbor’s Rottweiler. An escape was made. The results were Dakota (female) and Doc (male), absolutely scrumptious nuggets who are eight weeks old and ready to start their new lives. They’re exceptionally sweet and friendly, and don’t even get us started on the […]
Timmy

Timmy, age five months, is a lovely heeler (cattle dog) mix. He’s full of energy and joy, and hasn’t yet met a toy he doesn’t absolutely adore. He has a permanent smile! Timmy has a history of getting along well with other dogs. He has met our shelter ambassacat, Bubba, and was completely chill about […]
Dim Sum and Eggroll

Brothers Dim Sum and Eggroll used to make their home by a restaurant dumpster. They are very much enjoying their new lives in our adoption center, and look forward to their daily exercise and romp sessions in our kitten playroom. What would be even better would be a home of their very own. These tween […]
Mufasa

We haven’t had one of these in quite a while! Mufasa, 18 months, is a polydactyl, meaning he has extra toes. It’s a harmless (and utterly adorable) genetic trait. Extra-large side o’ toe beans, y’all. These “mitten kittens” have a passionate following. Mufasa is a big dude to boot, more than filling your arms when […]
