Abbie

Breed: Terrier / Chihuahua

Age: 2 years 2 months
Listed By: Furry Friends Rescue

She is about 2 years old and incredibly sweet.  Not a mean bone in either Abbie or Alex... Abbie loves everyone..... Alex (http://furryfriendsrescue.org/find_a_pet/view/16767) is a little shy and seems to prefer older men... They are not particularly bonded but could go together for company.   They are not real playful dogs so probably not good for children.... perhaps better as adult companion dogs.....

Alex

Breed: Chihuahua / Terrier Mix

Age: 1 year 5 months
Listed By: Furry Friends Rescue

Alex is incredibly sweet....not a mean bone in him. A little shy at first, but if he likes you, he really likes you. At his foster family's house, he loves his people. Alex runs right to his foster dad and sleeps in his arms while "dad" is watching TV.

He eats well and is not fussy. He sleeps in his own bed, but will climb in with you if you let him. He is quiet and not a barker, though will bark when he is very concerned about something, but only once or twice.

Bella

Breed: American Bulldog / Pit Bull Terrier

Age: 4 years
Listed By: Furry Friends Rescue

I am in urgent need of finding a foster or home for my 3 year old American Bulldog/Pitbull, Bella.

I have been working with Patrick Bohler from SCRRAP (Sonoma County Residents Responsible About Pitbulls) in northern California to try to find a foster home to rehabilitate my dog, Bella, but they do not have any available fosters or extra fundings. I have absolutely exhausted every resource I know of over the past year and am emotionally drained.

Some History...

I rescued Bella almost 2 years ago from a shelter in southern California. A main motivator behind adopting a dog was to help me with my anxiety, but unfortunately, it has mostly increased since getting Bella. I tried to give Bella the best care she deserved and have provided her with exercise, discipline and all the affection I have to give, but unfortunately, about 1 year ago Bella developed fear anxiety around people.

The only organization that has really worked with me is SCRRAP but as I mentioned, they have no available fosters at this time. I am looking for a foster or adoptive home that would be capable of caring for and rehabilitating Bella. I firmly believe in rehabilitation, for both owner and dog, but I simply am not capable now - financially, emotionally, or time-wise - to help Bella. I have invested an insurmountable amount of time and money -- more than I have had as a full-time student and part time worker -- into working with Bella, looking for and meeting with trainers, and providing her with the absolute best medical care possible. From local trainers, to National Geographic's Cesar Millan (who never responded to me), I have hit one brick wall after the other.

Bella is just a joy to be around when she's in comfortable settings and is an extremely devoted and intelligent dog. My vet hospital has been wonderful with her, and seen first hand and worked with her fear of strangers. She now goes there and instead of having to muzzle her, she gives kisses and wags her tail. I love this dog so very much and truly have done everything I could possibly do to try to keep her and work with her on her fear anxiety of strangers. I KNOW she has all the potential in the world (as I have seen her go from fearing someone to being comfortable with them) and am still hopeful I will find a home that will be better able to provide her with the structure and training she needs. In the mean time, I will never give up on her, continue taking each day as it comes, and love her with all my heart. 

If interested in Bella please contact her guardian: jrgimeno86@gmail.com

Rose

Breed: Chihuahua (Long Haired) Mix

Age: 1 year 11 months
Listed By: Furry Friends Rescue

Rose was rescued 11/28 while running around in a school park.  She was lactating at the time and was desperately trying to locate her puppies.  Despite advertising and flyers placed, no one has claimed her.  She is a very sweet girl and the vet said she is probably under 2 years old.  She loves people, being handled, wants to be with you whenever possible and will sit quietly with you.  She loves to go for walks and is a great rider in the car.  She plays well with the other two (much larger) dogs in the home.  She does chase the cats in her foster home but won’t harm them, just likes the chase.  Her foster mom is working on that.  It took her about 3 or 4 days to settle into the house routine and is 99% housebroken at this time.  She would be an asset to any family as she is such a good little girl and a pleasure to have around.   She is a good size as not too tiny and fragile but very easy to take with you.  She likes toys and will pick up any socks on the floor; doesn’t chew them, just brings them to you.  Rose also knows basic commands; sit, down, and possibly stay.   I can only assume her owners have been kidnapped by aliens and that is what has prevented them from seeking her out. 

Furry Friends Rescue is helping Rose's current guardian to find her a forever home. We ask for $100 donation to Furry Friends Rescue at time of adoption.  Please fill out our online dog application: http://furryfriendsrescue.org/adopt/dog

Staci

Breed: German Shepherd / Rottweiler

Age: 10 years 2 months
Listed By: Furry Friends Rescue

Staci is about 9 years old, adopted from a shelter. I have a small apartment and unable to keep her happy here. She is spayed, and has all shots up to date.

Staci is a very friendly dog, and would be good with older children and one or two dogs her size. She plays very well with others at the dog park.  She is overall a very mellow dog, she is always just happy to get out of the house. She weighs about 85 pounds and very healthy.

She runs like a gazelle! She loves the park, going for walks, and going for rides. She likes to get attention and will greet you everyday without fail. She knows how to sit, lie down, and shake. The words "park," "walk," "treat,' and "ride" will make her ears perk up and get her overly excited, so you better deliver if you mention these words! :) She is potty trained, and will "go to her room" when you want her to go to her bed. She likes to look out the window when she is by herself. She is perfect in the house but keep in mind she is a big dog and needs adequate space to run around. She is not good around tiny dogs or cats.

We are helping Staci's Guardian find her a new home. Please contact: stacylge@gmail.com  We would ask for $100 donation to Furry Friends Rescue upon adoption.
