Chance needs a second chance! His former human became too disabled to care for him properly, so this sweet guy is hoping for a new family or person to love and be happy with.

If you’d like to meet him before then, please contact Suzanne at 530 335-2192.
Girl is a beautiful one year old dog who needs her forever home. She’s pit an husky and so sweet! She loves everything. Her owners just can’t keep her because of living situations, but she’s amazing. She’s had all her shots and everything she needs.
Ms. Patty would be happy to save some dog kisses just for you, and wag her whole body as she gives them to you! This friendly sweetie-pie seems happy to meet everybody. Patty is house-trained, spayed, up-to-date on vaccinations, microchipped, heartworm negative and on monthly prevention. She gets along well with other dogs and is friendly and outgoing with people.

Hi, I have two pit bull dogs that need to be re-homed. I am having surgery at UC Davis and will be unable to care for my dogs anymore. Both are family friendly dogs who are not blood related at all but have both been raised with each other since the youngest one came into our family. The first dog is the brown pit bull named Leonidas and his birthday is August 20, 2014, he will be five this month. He is registered as a service dog in training and has had a lot of obedience training classes. He is neutered. He is fun loving and loves to wrestle and swim and play football. He can handshake and high five. A great guard dog for he only barks if necessary.
My other dog is a pit bull as well and he is brown and white. His name is Dallas and his birthday is November 2, 2016. He will be three this November. He is a sweetheart dog and listens well. He loves to play fetch a stick in the water and stay up late and be pet at night. Such a sweet loving boy dog. Both dogs are current on all there shots and registered with the county. I would like them to stay together if possible for they get along well with each other. They are both inside/ outside dogs and have food access all day long. They have been raised on grain free dog food. Currently they have been eating Purina One dog food. They are both very healthy and have had no health issues. Looking for a happy home that will treat them with love and respect and give them attention. They love attention and play time.
My name is Lisa and my contact number is 530-722-8472
Junior is good with both dogs and cats and is looking for a new forever home.
Minnie and Junior are a couple of sweet, sassy Doxie mixes. They have so much fun together and would love to be adopted together.
Cookie is a spayed female Labrador Retriever–possibly mixed with some Border Collie, judging by her slim build. She is very sweet, submissive to humans and craves hands-on attention. She gets along well with two large breed female dogs and does well with kids, but she is not good with cats.
Cookie is very responsive to treats and is eager to learn. She does need basic training and regular exercise. She’s a pretty gal, with a nice shiny coat and a gentle demeanor. If you’d like to meet Cookie, please contact Suzanne at 530 335-21092.
