Adoptions by Owner

We understand that life can sometimes present unexpected challenges, and having to rehome your pet can be one of them. That’s why we want to highlight our free service, Adoptions by Owner. Whenever possible, we strongly recommend exploring this option before considering a shelter. Not only is it a cost-free solution, but it also ensures a smoother transition for your furry friend by keeping them in a familiar environment during the rehoming process, reducing stress and aiding in their adjustment.

We acknowledge that it’s not always possible, but when it is, Adoptions by Owner stands as a great alternative. Your decision to find a caring new home for your pet is an act of love, and Adoptions by Owner is here to support you.

Please note that the Humane Society of Sonoma County only facilitates the web page for Adoptions by Owner and does not hold or accept responsibility for any of the pets posted on this page. Potential adopters are solely responsible for communicating with a posted pet’s guardian. HSSC’s Adoption by Owner service is reserved for pet owners finding themselves in the unfortunate situation of needing to rehome their pets. THIS PAGE IS NOT FOR BREEDERS LOOKING TO SELL ANIMALS. All rehoming submissions are reviewed to prevent misuse of the program by anyone breeding pets for profit. Any posts found to be for animals bred/sold for profit will be removed.

This free service is a component of the Humane Society of Sonoma County Rehoming Packet. Potential adopters are responsible for communicating with the pet’s guardian to acquire veterinary records and other necessary information. If your pet is not spayed/neutered we encourage you to have that done prior to rehoming. If there is a financial reason you have not been able to spay/neuter your pet please call the low-cost spay/neuter clinic at (707) 284-3499 to find out how to receive a free/low cost appointment.

If you submit a post here, and if/when you rehome your pet, please let us know via email so we can retire your post: communications.shs@gmail.com

There's no place like home. (photo of collie sitting on a couch) Our Adoptions By Owner page provides a free-of-cost solution, providing a seamless transition for your furry friend whenever possible. By keeping them in a familiar environment during the rehoming process, the aim is to reduce stress and facilitate a smooth adjustment.

Quiet Kitty

6 year old petite spayed female kitty for rehoming. She is very sweet and beautiful. She has lived indoor only for the past 5 years. She prefers a quiet, slow paced environment. She has lived with one other cat and two small dogs. She would do best in a home as a single pet, with other cats, or possibly with respectful, gentle dogs and older children. Rehoming because we are moving to a rental that does not allow as many pets as we currently have. Email with any questions. Contact: Kkaelala1409@gmail.com.

rehoming casper

casper is the most perfect dog. He’s very smart and understands most of what you say… he’s basically a human in a dog. Hes potty trained, speaks only when he needs too no excessive barking, and knows many tricks like spin roll over sit etc. he gets anxious sometimes and overly excited others, he has big feelings but overall is really chill its very rare he acts out. We have another dog and unfortunately we think casper will be better off in a single dog home. He is a great boy and deserves all the love and attention in the world we are unable to provide at this time in our lives. He also loves to bury himself in blankets and does great in dog bags and stores. he really is a great find and we are sad to have to see him go. you’ll never find another dog like casper, he’s the bestest friend.

Sweet, Smart, Confident Rio

This handsom fella is Rio. He is a 2-1/2 year old neutered male, 80 lbs., microchipped, housebroken, with all vaccinations up to date and in great health. Genetic tests show he is a mix of Great Pyrenees, Maremma Sheepdog, Treeing Walker Coon Hound, and American Foxhound. Rio is a sweet boy and would do well on a large property where he has room to roam, patrol, and protect.  He’s a great watchdog with a keen nose. He has not spent time around livestock. Rio is super smart, quick to learn, loves to play, and gets along with other dogs of all sizes in social settings (his best friends are two female French Bulldogs).  One-on-one Rio does great on a leash and loves to go on walks or hikes. Rio can sometimes be reactive to people or other dogs while on a leash (but is fine while off leash).  Rio has not had any interaction with cats.  His limited exposure to children has been great.  Rio loves car rides. The ideal home for Rio would be on a large, fenced property (with or without other dogs) where he has space to play, explore, and patrol.  He loves the outdoors, but also loves the comforts of home, family, and company.

**🐾 Loving Bonded Pair Looking for Their Forever Home! 🏡❤️**

Meet Sasha and Lucy, a bonded pair of affectionate and loving 5-year-old indoor kitties looking for their perfect forever home. It breaks my heart to let them go, but due to my housing situation, I can no longer keep them. My greatest hope is to find them a home where they will be cherished as much as they deserve. They are both healthy, happy, and full of love. Lucy is a social butterfly who adores being held, curling up in your lap, and gently asking for attention with a soft meow. She loves belly rubs, being brushed, and playtime. She has a fun, acrobatic side and will sometimes drape herself over your shoulder, even upside down, just enjoying the view. She is fascinated by being held near a wall, where she’ll place her paws on it and search for spiders or bugs—even when there aren’t any! She’ll keep you company while you work, placing her paw over your wrist as if to say, “Stay with me.” Sasha is a gentle soul who is both cautious and curious. She takes a little time to warm up, but once she does, she becomes the ultimate snuggler. She loves curling up under the covers, nestled against your chest, purring herself to sleep. She often observes from a distance before joining in on playtime, and she adores affectionate “rump pats,” where she happily purrs in delight. Together, these sisters love sunbathing, watching birds, and cuddling on soft blankets. They also enjoy lounging in cat hammocks, peacefully hanging out and watching the world go by. As indoor kitties, they are best suited for a peaceful home with a loving person or couple who will enjoy their affectionate and playful personalities. If you can give them the love and care they need, I would be forever grateful. Sasha and Lucy are ready to be your perfect companions! ❤️ Contact: juliecookingflavor@gmail.com or (415) 717-3578.

Rehoming Aussie / Great Pyrenees mix

Charlie is a 5-year-old Australian Shepherd and Great Pyrenees mix, and he’s truly a remarkable dog. He’s a loving, loyal, and devoted companion with a strong protective instinct. While we adore him, we’ve made the difficult decision to find him a new home because he’s not a good fit for our family, particularly with young children. He would do exceptionally well with a family that has a large property/backyard, where he can roam and thrive. Charlie would also make a fantastic working dog or a dedicated companion for someone without kids. We are heartbroken but committed to finding him the perfect place where he can be happy and live his best life. Contact: sweese77@aol.com or (707) 478-8328.

Mika – Australian Cattle Dog Mix, 4mo

Mika came to us through friends, and was originally from a free litter being rehomed. We have been fostering her for 7 weeks and we just adore her. Unfortunately, with our very elderly dog in the house, the timing is off for us to keep a new puppy. We’re seeking a sweet home and family for Mika, and would love to meet you if you feel you’d be a good fit! More about Mika: – I’m 4 months old and learning so many new things; potty training is going well, I’m exploring my kennel, and I’m getting used to leash walking and car rides. – My favorite thing is to be with my people. I love to sleep at your feet, follow you around the house, and cuddle on the couch. I’d really love a home with people around most of the day, especially since I’m young and still learning/bonding. – I like to learn new tricks and follow commands, and I’m extra motivated when there are treats involved; I can sit, come, leave it, wait, and touch, to name a few. – I’m curious about my kitty acquaintance at home … but nervous enough not to pester him! – I like to be around other confident and playful dogs; I don’t love aggressive play, but puppy tumbling and chase are the BEST! – Kids are so much fun. I love to snuggle with my 10yo/8yo/4yo friends … but I do alert them if I need space, and I appreciate when they are gentle and respectful. – I do like to chew … but I don’t chew shoes! I really like duck jerky/treats and the Trader Joe’s Cheesy Chew Sticks. – My foster parents suspect I’m allergic to chicken, but I like lamb and salmon pretty well, so it’s okay. – I enjoy social outings and love to meet new people. I’m also super excited to start Puppy Social Hour soon! – I’m not spayed yet, but my foster mom has an appointment scheduled in May when I turn 6mo – you can keep this appointment (low cost spay). – I have completed my DAPP vaccines through the Humane Society’s free vaccine clinic – thank you HS! – Maybe my coolest trick … I can sleep through the night (preferably in bed with my people!) with no waking or accidents. – I weigh 15lbs right now, and most people guess that’ll I’ll reach about 30lbs … the perfect size for walking without tugging. 😉 – I’d love to meet you and see if you could be my forever family!

Gentle Soul Seeking Kind Owners!

I have been fostering this wonderful 5-year-old cat, Cookie, for one year and four months. He lives with me and my other cats, and he socializes well with both my pets and my family. Cookie is disciplined, intelligent, and has a heartwarming personality. He loves to sit with me when I lie down nearby, and he has a special way of stealing your heart with his delightful behavior. Cookie is a mix of Domestic Shorthair and either British Shorthair or Russian Blue. Unfortunately, due to my busy schedule with household chores, a full-time job located far from home, and the jealousy of my two senior cats, I find it challenging to provide Cookie with the attention he truly deserves, especially since I already have three cats of my own. Cookie is neutered and up to date on all vaccinations, including rabies, FVRCP, and FELV. I also give him Revolution Plus monthly to keep him healthy. Recently, he underwent a deep dental cleaning. Cookie is incredibly cute, well-behaved, and has a wonderful personality. I am looking for a forever home for him with owners who are patient and kind, as he can be shy around strangers. I need to find a home for him as soon as possible, as I may have to make alternative arrangements soon, which I would prefer to avoid. Please note that there is no adoption fee. I will also provide a month’s supply of his favorite food and treats, along with his medical records. Thank you for considering giving Cookie a loving forever home!  Contact: hanamoe2020@gmail.com or (415) 336-3987.

Two bonded kitties need a home

Hello everyone! I am trying to find two kitties a good home as my family underwent hard times and we can no longer afford to keep and take care of them as needed. The tabby’s name is Beerus and the other is Whis. They are very sweet but will get very loud for food. They are easy to handle (putting in crate for vet visits, allow nail trims, allow baths) They’ve been known to counter-surf from time to time but they love to cuddle and sleep in the bed with their people. Their purr machine is out of this world. They are litter box trained and they are INDOOR ONLY cats(You need to be able to have them be indoor only) Whis loves to play with the laser pointer and Beerus loves toys. If you are interested please reach out. I can give some supplies and I’m interested in finding them a good and loving home, I will consider a small rehoming fee, but I just want to know that they are going to a good home. Thank you.

Senior Brothers Need a Home

I am looking for a forever home for two male 12-year-old cats Sam and Ray. Good with dogs, cats, and kids. They are in great health, neutered, and are sweet as can be. I have had them for four years and they have had no health issues and the previous owner had none to report either. They are indoor/outdoor and litter box trained. We have moved towards the mountains where the wildlife is much more dangerous for pets, and am worried about them getting out and attacked. Would like to rehome them back to Sonoma County where they can be safe for their senior years. They have been together all their life so I would prefer not to separate them. I can provide litter boxes, litter, and a bag of food as well as some toys. Contact: korri.andrade@gmail.com or (314) 630-8092.

2 sweet male young cats

I need to rehome my boys, Severus and Brutus. They are both about 4 years old, neutered, indoor cats. Brutus is rambunctious and the BIGGEST cuddles. Severs is a little more sly and shy and as sweet as can be Brutus is slightly more difficult to handle but have never stractched or attacked, severus is extremely easy to handle and groom. These boys are bonded but I think they’d be just fine apart or with other cats if acclimated correctly. They aren’t picky about food or litter and they like to play with little stuffed toys or lazers. They do have their own scratching posts I will give with them as well as carriers. They are food driven so as soon as they see you are their source of food they will trust you rather quickly. Also severus has a thumb which is pretty rad.  Contact: Jahmelakushkaki@yahoo.com or (707) 228-2360.

We are starting to look for a deserving, loving, and active household for our beloved adventure partner, Rosa

We are starting to look for a deserving, loving, and active household for our beloved adventure partner, Rosa (4 years old, 70ish lbs, Terrier/ Rottweiler/Lab/ Shepherd mix). Some dear friends living in Oaxaca City, Mexico kindly took in a pair of street dogs, and shortly after Rosa and her litter mates were born. She’s been in our care since she arrived in the Bay Area at the appropriate age of 12 weeks old. Rosa is in amazing health (genetic tests show that she is clear of any markers that would be of concern) and has been in good veterinary care her whole life. She is gorgeous, very affectionate, athletic, mostly obedient, and has been trained at the Marin Humane Society (Family Dog 1,2 and 3). She’s been getting regular runs and hikes her whole life, and has been off leash more than she’s been on, having freedoms in the hills that most dogs do not. She’s easy to keep clean, is accustomed to being handled, and doesn’t shed all that much. Her favorite games include tug, fetch, and playing with sticks. She loves to swim in any body of water, including the ocean, and has been on several high sierra adventures. Rosa has some limitations. She has high prey drive, which can be of great benefit in terms of training, but requires attention and active positive reinforcement. She’s also classically head shy with new people and really needs to be introduced in a way that allows her to come to new folks on her own terms, which she does eventually. Offering her treats and playing stick with her greatly speeds up earning her trust. She’s also dog reactive with about <20% of the dogs she comes into contact with, especially if they are unsocialized or aggressive. This has been the main pain point for our family as we have another large female dog in the house who she does not get along with. Managing separation between the two dogs has been difficult for us, and Rosa deserves better than we can give her. We are heartbroken in coming to this decision. Rosa needs a very active home, likely without other dogs (possibly ok with another large dominate male(s). Her new family should be willing and able to work with her around her limitations, which may include some more behavioral training. If you think you may be a great fit for our Rosa, we’d love to talk with you. Contact: purities@protonmail.com.

Maōri – Ultimate Cuddle Bug

Maōri is a Pomeranian and Pit Bull mix. This sweet girl was living in a cage in a San Francisco apartment. I knew I didn’t have the bandwidth or situation for her, but I needed to get her out of where she was. I have tried to keep her, but it is not working. She was with her litter way longer than most pups experience. She very much loves to be connected with someone. If no other dogs, she will settle for us humans. I have an old, cranky dog who does not appreciate her need to play and cuddle. Her Wonderful Qualities she will sit for you at any moment to cuddle she doesn’t have an aggressive bone in her body; she wants to play with everyone she will not stray she does not shed she is adorable she will let you groom her (bath, nails, etc…) she will be still as a statue Her Not So Wonderful Qualities she jumps and nips when you arrive home she will eat your food…and your chapstick she will carry your belongings to the backyard (but she can be redirected to chew her treats and toys) I think her extended time with her litter made her want to be connected always and also to just go for food whenever she could get it. She is such a sweet, light-hearted, happy, energetic girl, and if she has a walk, she is a happy girl. She is very good at settling in. She is resilient, and once she understands what she needs to do, she will do it…but it can take her a while to understand. She is food-motivated. At first, I thought she would be good with other dogs because she wants to play and is so good with them, but I almost think she would thrive with people only. She just needs connection, exercise, and love. I think other dogs in the mix may make her more difficult. Contact: viavirtus@icloud.com or (707) 694-2437.

Wilma May

(Posting for Craig (916) 719-8171) I adopted this girl in October 2023. Wilma May is approximately 3 to 4 years old. She is up-to-date on all shots and has been spayed. Wilma May loves staring down squirrels, riding in the car, loves her people, and watches TV … especially Jeopardy and Dateline! She is well mannered, friendly, housebroken, and is probably the most grateful Doberman I have ever owned! She is a super character; when she comes in to say hello her whole body wiggles, she smiles all the way to her earlobes! She will knock you over with wet kisses because she doesn’t realize her own size. Wilma May would love to be a lap dog if I let her. Unfortunately, Wilma May and my other girl have decided they don’t love each other anymore. Wilma May’s agression towards Kona has steadily increased in the last five months. As an experienced Doberman owner, I’ve tried everything to stop the SSA. After my recent trip to the Pet Emergency with Kona for multiple lacerations, I realized as much as I love her, I have to rehome Wilma May for the sake of my three other dogs. Wilma May needs to go to a home with no other female dogs. She would do best in a single dog family, or possibly with one smaller male dog. Can you give this beautiful girl her foreverhome?

Calm Brother and Chaotic Sister need a home!

Dewey (orange) is a male and about 3 years old, Moon (black) is a female about 1 year old, both are neutered/spayed. Both are very well litter box trained, and will be fully vaccinated very soon, and I have all their past medical paperwork including proof of their neuter/spay, and previous vaccinations, and original adoption papers. Dewey is a calm older man who usually doesn’t get up to shenanigans, while Moon at least for now does enjoy some chaos! both are very sweet and very much do enjoy attention and affection. They both LOVE a comfy bed, and even more sharing one with their human. However be warned they do like to fight/play, and that can make quite a bit of noise. They eat from a automatic feeder and simple water bowl which of course I will hand over, as well as Dewey’s favorite toy! a small.. ferret..? thing? that squeaks! He even plays fetch with it.. almost.. he’ll just about bring it back to you.. almost. Moon is very vocal when you’ve been away from her for a little while and walk up to her, and Dewey is very vocal if he wakes you up in your bed 🙂 TL:DR of why they need a home: I am in the Air Force, and leaving the force, and unfortunately travel/transport for them in that case is not covered, and despite original plans to not do this, I will be moving very close to my immediate family. Two of whom are allergic to cats, one of them recently having a baby who very well could also be allergic, and upon getting back over there I may not have enough money to take care of them, or even a home of my own for a while. **IF I DO NOT ANSWER THE PHONE, I’M PROBABLY AT WORK, PLEASE LEAVE A MESSAGE WITH YOUR NUMBER OR EMAIL ME!

Toby is seeking a forever home

Toby is a playful 3-year old neutered German Shorthair/Black Lab who is seeking a forever home. He needs lots of activity, in fact, he is a working breed and needs a job so he would be a perfect hand at a farm/ranch. He loves to run and chase squirrels. He also likes to bark at anything that is near our home (which can be a good thing). He has had some training and needs more as he pulls on leash and needs to work on some manners. He really wants to be good but gets anxious if alone all day. We work full time and our daughter is relocating and cannot take him with her, which is sad because we love him so much. We want to find someone who has time to help Toby be his best. He is smart and wants to be good and he needs a handler who can commit to his training. He loves to be cuddled up and thinks he’s a lap dog. He has been attacked at the dog park and is a little fearful, needs to work on his confidence. Can you help us find a loving home for Toby?  Contact: ronelle@comcast.net or (415) 497-8768.

Dobby

Hi, I’m Dobby! I’m an affectionate, snuggly American Shorthair who simply adores being close to my favorite humans. I’ve lived both indoors and outdoors (though now I’m strictly indoor because I’m a city girl!), and I’m happiest when I can curl up next to you on the couch or greet you at the door with a sweet little “meow.” I’ve lived with kids and a big dog before, so I know how to be gentle around little ones—and I don’t mind a friendly, respectful dog roommate. I’m not too keen on sharing my space with other cats, though, so I’d love to be your one-and-only feline friend. I did have a small health scare a couple of years ago when a lesion on my nose was diagnosed as possible skin cancer, but it was removed and hasn’t caused any issues since. It left a bit of a scar, but I think it just adds to my unique charm! I’m spayed, microchipped, and up-to-date on my shots, so I’m ready to settle into my new home right away. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion who will greet you with happy chatter and cozy snuggles, I just might be the perfect match! I moved out from New Mexico to California so my mom could take care of her aging parents, one of whom has dementia. She travels for work and cares for them a lot of the time, and her roommate has a severe allergy to cats, so they are hoping to find me a loving home where my charms can be fully appreciated and reciprocated.

Stevie Nix needs a new band!

Hello, I am looking for a home for my dog Stevie Nix. Belgian Malanois x Tibetan Mastiff. 1yr 11mo old ~60lbs. Spayed after 1st heat. Up to date with all of her shots. In our time together, I’ve had her every minute of every day since she was 11 weeks. She was with me at work (I am a contractor) riding in a kennel in the car and then being with me at client’s homes. She has had a lot of exposure to different environments and does well in public on leash. She is protective, and will sound off if anyone she doesn’t know approaches me, my family or employees (if she is stationary). We did weekly group training when she was a puppy and she also did a 25 day boarded training with the same woman when she was ~1yr. She cannot not be left at home for a work day. She has not been destructive while I’ve had her but she definitely has separation anxiety (no thanks to me always having her with me). She has barrier aggression as well and will sound off if anyone knocks at the door. Suffice to say she is an on leash dog. I let her run when I am hiking on private property or at the dog park. But otherwise her exercise needs to be walking and training games, and with her endurance, that’s a lot of walking. She also has a strong prey drive and will want to chase any animal that turns its back and runs. So that’s the bad and the ugly. But Stevie is my girl and I am in a lot of pain having to give her up. She deserves someone who can meet her needs. She is an extremely intelligent dog and very affectionate with my family. She has a playful personality and loves playing with other dogs. And other dogs around makes her a lot calmer. She grew up with our 9 year old mutt and she adores him and he makes her noticeably more at ease. She is half guard dog half police dog, so considering her heritage her traits are not her fault, so just needs the right owner to make them shine. I can provide more pictures as well as my trainers number if needed. And of course answer and further questions. Thank you, Landin Contact: landin.ambrosini@gmail.com or (707) 266-3229.

Sweet Arlo needs outdoor space

Arlo is a big, energetic boy who loves car rides, outdoor adventures (camping, hiking, walking, swimming), and being around his humans. He loves to walk around parks, say hi to new adults, and find gophers to sniff out and try to catch. He’s beyond adorable and can be very loving and sweet to both his own humans and new people, but he also has resource guarding issues so managing that and being aware of his body language is extremely important. He’s a high energy dog who needs multiple walks and boundaries in and outside the home to manage his dog reactivity and resource guarding. He currently lives in an apartment in the city and would do much better in a larger home with a fenced- in yard or some type outdoor space. He’d do great in an active home, with no children or other animals, who can be outside with him and has time to manage his behaviors. He’s strong, fast, super smart and such a fast learner – he has a lot of potential in the right environment and home. Contact: jillsnickels@gmail.com or (415) 608-7772.

Bullmastiff Female 6 years old

With a heavy heart we are looking to rehome Zoie, a full bred Bullmastiff. She’s approximately 6 years old. After the passing of our brother we tried to care for her. But unfortunately cannot keep her because she does not get along with our other dogs. She is very friendly, loyal, and loving. And would do great in a single pet home. Please help us find her a new safe home. Thank you so much! Contact: bri.hoyt2@gmail.com or (707) 295-9482.

Loving Adult Cat Needs a Place to Call Home

I took in this handsome kitty as a hungry, scrappy stray. He’s a solid black Manx cat. If you’re not familiar with them, Manx cats have long hind legs and little to no tail. After nobody came forward to claim him, I had this boy neutered, microchipped, vaccinated (first round of shots), treated for fleas and dewormed. I also got him ear tipped, thinking that he would prefer to be released back outside as a community cat. Once he was brought indoors to recover from surgery, it became evident that he’s an extremely affectionate and easygoing guy. He likes to sit on laps, get pets, roll at your feet and knead. He’ll chirp, flop onto his side to greet you, and immediately start purring. Honestly, he’s friendlier than three of my four indoor cats. He’s litter box trained, very neat and hasn’t sprayed on anything. He desperately wants to be a house cat, but I cannot provide that for him with four cats of my own. He’s been staying in my bathroom this week and is much happier inside the house. Ideally, I would like to find him an indoor home with no dogs. I don’t know how he reacts to dogs, and the move alone will be stressful enough. I’ve purposely kept him separated from my cats but my guess is that he’d be fine with a slow introduction to other cats. If you have any questions or would like to meet this kitty, please reach out.

URGENT rehoming Charlotte

It is with a heavy heart that we need to rehome our 5 yr old, 70 lb female husky mix, Charlotte. She’s highly intelligent, spunky, and wants to be your partner in crime. She is crate trained, potty trained, and has great recall. She is food motivated, eager for clear rules and boundaries, and knows all basic commands. She is good on leash as long as you’re firm and strong, because she does have a prey drive typical of a husky. She sadly struggles with reactivity and behavior issues, including dog aggression, that we will no longer be able to manage in our home with a baby on the way. She doesn’t get along with other female dogs and can be selective with large male dogs, so she needs to be in a single dog home with no other animals or kids, ideally in a home with a big yard or land. She has shown no human aggression but she does have some touching boundaries with people. With trust and time she is an affectionate sweet dog that wants all the attention. She needs an owner experienced with reactive dogs and understands the husky breed, someone that is up for the challenge to provide more behavioral training and be her leader. She would be her best self in a more appropriate home environment. Contact: katiewong96@yahoo.com or (707) 391-2406.

Rehoming Charlie: A Loyal and Loving Companion Looking for the Perfect Home

Charlie is a 5-year-old Australian Shepherd and Great Pyrenees mix, and he’s truly a remarkable dog. He’s a loving, loyal, and devoted companion with a strong protective instinct. While we adore him, we’ve made the difficult decision to find him a new home because he’s not a good fit for our family, particularly with young children. After three biting incidents, we believe Charlie would do better in an environment better suited to his needs. He would do exceptionally well with a family that has a large property, such as a farm or winery, where he can roam and thrive. Charlie would also make a fantastic working dog for a ranch or a dedicated companion for someone without kids. We are heartbroken but committed to finding him the perfect place where he can be happy and live his best life. Contact: dianajex@hotmail.com or (707) 616-2719.

Chihuahua mix 7 month old

Kiwi is a chihuahua mix and currently weighs over 10 pounds. She is now 7 months old. I have had Kiwi and her sister since they were 2 months old. I’m looking for a new home for her because lately they’ve been not getting along. They may be jealous of each other or trying to see who’s more dominant. They get along with my older chihuahua though. Other than that she is very playful and has a lot of energy and loves to be petted. Contact: starletdream@gmail.com.

Sweet kitty needs new home

Looking to rehome my sweet kitty, Sasha. Unfortunately I am moving overseas and there are other factors preventing me from bringing her with me. She is such a special kitty, she was a rescue when I got her and very scared/skittish, would barely let anyone near her. In our time together, she has blossomed and come to enjoy affection from friends and family members, even strangers at time. There’s so much I could say about her – she really is not your typical cat, she is polite and respectful and somehow seems to understand English- if you ask her nicely not to do something or jump on something, she won’t. She seems dog-like in some ways, like how she runs to greet you every time you get home or wake up in the morning. She’s not really a fan of being picked up, but she loves affection, loves being pet and cared for, and will also come curl up on your lap if you let her. Sometimes, I would hug her on the ground as opposed to picking her up. Seems to work better haha! She’s quite a talker too, in fact she has an astonishing array of little communications and sounds. My grandma has noted that sometimes she sounds like a bird. She is spayed and received all necessary shots/vaccinations from the shelter I adopted her from – Cat Town in Oakland. She is also microchipped, and I will pass all the info on to you upon adopting. She is around 6 years old, she’s very mellow and chill but she also gets into playful kitten mode and will go kooky over some string. She has been an indoor kitty but enjoys hanging around in the sun if you’ve got a balcony or patio. She may venture outside if you let her, but she is much more interested in being safe in the house, and has no tendencies or inclinations to run away. She’s been in great health in the time I’ve had her. She is a happy girl, a sweet soft little angel. She is special and I’m seeking someone who can cherish her as I have. She would likely do best in a calm space without other cats. But for awhile she’s lived in my room with a full house and a loud doggie outside, she’s fine with that, as long as she has her own little sanctuary. I feel I could go on so much more, but please feel free to call/text/email if you’d like to learn more about Sweet Sashie! Thanks for reading 🙂 Contact: nicole.hawayo@gmail.com or (808) 721-9072.

sweet 2 year old orange kitty brothers

Rafiki, Buddy, and Fattie have grown up together in the loving care of my sister (alongside their mama and siblings) and are wonderful, loving, indoor kitties who have been spayed, neutered, vaccinated, etc. All are great with people and other animals (including dogs). Buddy and Rafiki are very bonded, while Fattie can happily be solo or enjoy the company of other cats. My sister is now very ill and has to give up her home to move to a care facility, and her heart is broken having to leave behind Buddy and Rafiki. These boys are so funny, intelligent, beautiful, and sweet…truly special kitties who anyone would be lucky to know. And it would mean everything to us to know that they have a loving forever home to go to from here. If you’re interested, having questions, etc., please let me know! xoxo Contact: jesswemail@gmail.com or (415) 722-4320.

Squishy is in need of a loving home!

Squishy is the most adorable 2-year-old, English bulldog mix! I rescued her just over a month ago; she’s the cutest 45-pound pup with both sass and snuggly attributes. Previous to Squishy being homed in the Humane Society, she came from a shelter in Oakland, California. For Squishy to thrive in a home, I would only want to rehome Squishy to a home with no smaller dogs. I am not familiar with how Squishy would interact with cats or any other animals. The reason I would like to re-home Squishy is due to my frenchie I have at home. Squishy is an energetic and playful pup, and when she plays with my frenchie, she becomes too rough, however, this could be something that can be fixed with someone who has the time to put the effort in. Squishy lacks security within a home, and I believe she see’s other dogs as competition or a threat in a home. Squishy adores people and meeting other dogs on walks and needs someone who is active, to take her on daily walks. She also has some minor, general training she needs to work on, however, she is crate-trained and potty-trained. I seriously have no issue with my adorable Squish, though it gets to be too much to maintain having both my dogs together and I can tell my frenchie is distressed when around Squish. I need to find Squish a great family home with potentially bigger dogs or no other dogs. Shes the most loyal, sweet girl to people. For any questions or concerns, please text my phone number.

Ivy/Doberman

Ivy is a female Doberman. She is 2 years old or possibly 3. I’m not a wealthy person Hints why I can no longer keep her. Also my landlord doesn’t allow dogs. I saved her from a not so great home before. I couldn’t leave her there with those people. She’s not neutered but I hope for her to go to someone who can get that done for her. I don’t want her to be used for breeding. She’s a really good dog. She’s a little skittish at first but she warms up pretty quickly. She’s good with typically one other big dog. I wouldn’t put her with any little dogs. She’s never attacked a dog but she’s showed her teeth to little ones. She’s good with kids that are typically 8 years old and up. I mean we have her around kids now but she’s extremely hyper so I just wouldn’t recommend her to be around little little kids. Ideally i believe she’s a great dog for like a couple or even a single person who actually does outdoor activities because she’s got loads of energy to burn. Oh and the people who had her before me said that she has her shots and all that important stuff but they didn’t get the paper work from the people they got her from so you’d have to take her in and make sure she’s all good to go. She definitely needs training as well. She’s such a great dog though and I just really want her to go to good loving people. You can email, call or text me. Thank you for reading.

Blue

We rescued blue a few months back and he is genuinely the best natured dog. We don’t know all details about him considering we rescued him. He does have a blue eye which is why we called him Blue! We think he might be part Shepard and maybe some husky! He’s an all white dog which makes his eye look even cooler! He is very young and had a rough life before we rescued him. He is so fun, playful and loving. Blue gets along with all other dogs and wants to play all the time. He became very attached to our baby and loves to be next to him constantly (very good with kids). The downfall is he has behavior issues and needs lots of training. He needs a home who is willing to put in the time for him and give him all the love and attention he needs and deserves. He can be very underfoot and clingy so be aware of that. Blue does need toys he loves to find things and chew them up. He has so much potential to be the best dog around!

Female Moo: cuddle Muppet through and through but doesn’t understand she weighs 600lbs, loves parkour, specially off the bodies of her victims, will sell soul for lambchop toy. Female Oil Pan: does crime for kisses and hugs, believes he’s a lapdog but much large, doesn’t understand personal space, doesn’t believe he should be told no, has a mean left hook. Male.

Sweetest 3 year-old siblings

Siblings Rusty and Lilly are in need of a loving home to head to together. They are incredibly sweet, fun, and adapt easily, but Rusty does not respond well to our cranky resident cat. Although Lilly has been fine, we don’t want to separate these two because they are really especially close! They are current on vaccines, flea treatment and are neutered/spayed. They weigh 12 and 13 pounds and are indoor only cats who do well outside on leashes. Contact: kirrvt@hotmail.com or (707) 775-9934.

Cattle Dog Mix in New Home

I’m moving away and can’t afford to keep him with me. I adopted MooMoo from a shelter 3 years ago. He is currently 3 years old. Looking for a family home. MooMoo prefers quieter environments as we currently live in a busier urban area. He can becomes activated when other dogs bark or rough play. He can get along with gentle, less active dogs. He prefers to be on your lap and get lots of cuddles. He likes to sniff every patch of grass on our walks and does not pull on the leash (in fact, I end up stopping for him quite often). He is housetrained, potty trained, and crate trained (if rehomed, he needs some time to adjust and learn his environment). He knows some commands: sit, down, spin, paw, stay. He is a good dog that just loves human attention more than other dogs. He will come with his current food, medications, (a bunch of) toys, crate, dog bowls, etc. Contact: lindayu88888@gmail.com.

Beloved pet seeking more quiet home

We rescued our sweet Lulu 2 1/2 years ago from the SFPCA as a puppy (she came all the way from Fresno!) She currently lives in our San Francisco apartment with me, my husband and our 1 year-old. Lulu has a long list of amazing qualities as well as some behavior quirks that we have been working on with tons of training. She is extremely affectionate and literally melts when pet. While she loves fetch, she is also just as content to lay underneath your chair for hours. Lulu has a select group of dog friends and takes a little time to warm up to new people – however once that happens, she will welcome you into her circle forever. She is fiercly loyal and that is one of the reasons why writing this post is extra hard. We love our fur baby so much but Lulu is having a hard time adjusting to our walking toddler and has become very fearful of her. We have tried many tactics but we ultimately think Lulu would thrive and relax more in a home without young children. Contact: joannmariej@gmail.com.

2yr old smart and loyal Enzo

We are looking to rehome Enzo. Sadly, our work schedules have changed and it’s become too difficult to provide Enzo the kind of life he deserves. He’s 2 years old, 55lbs, half German Shepherd and Australian Cattle Dog, incredibly smart, loves to play fetch and is incredibly chill and cuddly at home. He has become a bit reactive recently but are making good progress improving it since he is so food motivated.

Matthew: an abandoned angel

Matthew has me a few inches shy of becoming a foster failure but my cats are distressed sharing their space with another, I am moving in a few months, and it’s important that I place Matthew in a forever home soon. He is the most incredibly sweet, gentle, playful, loyal, polite, and easily contented cat and all who have met him have immediately joined his fan club. He’s a 10/10. Matthew belonged to my neighbors and was in pretty bad shape by the time they got evicted and abandoned him. In the last few months I have put weight on him, have gotten him vaccinated, I’ve done bloodwork and x-rays to confirm that he is one healthy boy, rid him of all his bugs, and have treated all of his dental decay (he’s down to one trusty tooth). Since I do not know his history, I am guessing he is about 10 years old and broke his leg at sometime in the past, as he has a permanent limp. He can still scale a fence, but does need help jumping onto your lap for a good cuddle. He is also neutered! It would be important to his happiness to be able to still go outside and he does very well with other cats. The hardest thing about him is that he will only agree to eat kibble… and with all else that could apply, I think that’s a good sign of him being incredibly adaptable and an EASY addition to anyone’s home. Due to his rough past, I want to ensure that he lands a family that takes care of his health and happiness into his senior years and right now his health charts are clear. He deserves all the love in the world. Might you be his person? Contact: rainap88@gmail.com or (707) 494-5947.
