Meet two year old and 55 pound kit The staffy cattle dog mix. She is a super social and outgoing dog who loves everyone she meets. She is gentle and patient. She would love to be a second dog where she could have a constant playmate. She would be a great candidate for the dog park as well. She unfortunately is not good with cats. She is smart and eager to please. She is full of energy and definitely needs a family committed to plenty of exercise and commitment to her needs. She’s doing wonderful on house and crate training and would make a great family dog. #rescuedog #rescuedogsofinstagram #rescuedismyfavoritebreed #rescuedogs #adoptdontshop #adoptables #adoptme #adopt #dogsofinsta #dogs #mansbestfriend #puppiesofinstagram #muttsofinstagram #ilovedogs #underdoganimalrescueca #underdog #homelessdog #shelterdogsofinstagram #shelterdog #secondchance #mykidshavepaws #woof #dogsinneed #foster #fosteringsaveslives #nonprofit #volunteer #werescue #fostermom

Cute little 8lb chi Merle is ready to find his forever home. He is a social, happy little guy who is outgoing and fun. He will be neutered this week and ready. He is dog, cat and kid friendly. He is doing well on house and crate training. Let’s get him a home! #rescuedog #rescuedogsofinstagram #rescuedismyfavoritebreed #rescuedogs #adoptdontshop #adoptables #adoptme #adopt #dogsofinsta #dogs #mansbestfriend #puppiesofinstagram #muttsofinstagram #ilovedogs #underdoganimalrescueca #underdog #homelessdog #shelterdogsofinstagram #shelterdog #secondchance #mykidshavepaws #woof #dogsinneed #foster #fosteringsaveslives #nonprofit #volunteer #werescue #fostermom

This stunning girl is one year old Zara! Our best guess is that she is a golden retriever shepherd mix. She currently weighs 64 pounds and is quite a looker. She’s a total puppy full of energy and loves to romp and play. She would do best in a home without young children because unfortunately she’ll run right through them. She currently is fostered with another big dog who she loves to play with. She’s doing well so far on house and crate training and needs a very active family. She would make a perfect family dog who would highly benefit and thrive in a home committed to training. She is smart and eager to learn and at the perfect age. #rescuedog #rescuedogsofinstagram #rescuedismyfavoritebreed #rescuedogs #adoptdontshop #adoptables #adoptme #adopt #dogsofinsta #dogs #mansbestfriend #puppiesofinstagram #muttsofinstagram #ilovedogs #underdoganimalrescueca #underdog #homelessdog #shelterdogsofinstagram #shelterdog #secondchance #mykidshavepaws #woof #dogsinneed #foster #fosteringsaveslives #nonprofit #volunteer #werescue #fostermom

🐾🐶❤️November started with a bang! We welcomed 10 new underdogs yesterday and even recruited some new Fosters.🐾 these 10 adorable faces came from Hanford from Kings County animal shelter. They now have a second chance at life here in the bay area. They all will get fully vetted and be off to their forever homes in no time. We are always looking for Foster’s or even foster to adopt situation. We can gladly match you with hopefully the right dog on the first try. We cannot save dogs without these amazing faces you see here. It truly takes a village but every dog is so worth it. We have rescued over 420 dogs and counting this year so far🐶❤️🐾 #rescuedog #rescuedogsofinstagram #rescuedismyfavoritebreed #rescuedogs #adoptdontshop #adoptables #adoptme #adopt #dogsofinsta #dogs #mansbestfriend #puppiesofinstagram #muttsofinstagram #ilovedogs #underdoganimalrescueca #underdog #homelessdog #shelterdogsofinstagram #shelterdog #secondchance #mykidshavepaws #woof #dogsinneed #foster #fosteringsaveslives #nonprofit #volunteer #werescue #fostermom

Meet 10 year old and 8 pound Kacie the hilarious Chihuahua Minpin mix. This girl is full of personality and will always keep you smiling. She is Dog, Cat and kid friendly and you would never know she’s really 10 years old. She likes everyone and thinks everyone’s her best friend especially if you have treats. Sadly she was surrendered to us after her owner of almost her entire life fell ill. She would love to find a family who will take her on walks, give her lots of blankets to burrow in and spoil her with love. She doesn’t have any health concerns and gets around just fine. She actually is a busy little bee when she wants to be but also sleeps very well.

This gorgeous one and a half year old husky mix Raven has been waiting at Hsnb and Vallejo for far too long. She is extremely dog friendly would make a great playmate. We would love to find her foster family or even better yet a foster to adopt situation. She is still very much a puppy and does lack manners but it’s very sweet and eager to please. She would greatly benefit from living with a second dog who can teach her how to be a well-behaved pet. Anyone interested? Interested?

Meet Ginsburg! Ginsburg ("Bergie") is a 1yo love of a dog. He's approximately 45 pounds and likely a Staffy/McNab mix. He is the perfect medium size boy. He's doing great in his foster home, house trained and learning the crate, walks on the leash, and many other tricks. He's super smart. He gets along well in his foster home with another dog and cat. He is still a puppy and learning, and very motivated to learn. He would do well in a home with a yard, or someone who likes to run or hike quite a bit, or another active bigger dog to match his energy. He would do best with kids over 5yrs old since he is a bouncy happy boy. He loves to cuddle as is very affectionate. https://form.jotform.us/60990369364163

This sweet girl is six month old little lady Rue! She’s a very tall dear like Chihuahua terrier. Poor girl came to us very under confident which came off as if she wasn’t dog friendly. She’s currently fostered with a big dog who she enjoys to cuddle with and try to play. She’s gaining more confidence by the day and she’s extremely sweet and loves to cuddle. She’s doing fantastic on house training and would make a great companion! https://form.jotform.us/60990369364163
