Our Featured Pets...

David






This is David. What a handsome fellow! Social and friendly; loves a good tummy rub. David is a large adult male Rottweiler, about 2 to 3 years old. His favorite game is tennis ball fetch. It is pleasure seeing him stretch those long legs running after the tennis ball; he brings it back nicely every time! David does well with other female dogs; but seems to want to challenge other male dogs. He will chase cats, so would probably do best in a home without cats or small dogs (maybe he thinks that small dogs are in the cat family?). David currently weighs about 80 lbs. He is crate trained and does well with the other female foster dogs. This boy has a very sweet disposition and deserves a second chance in life and a loving home.



Chelsea






This is Chelsea. This little chocolate and tan colored Cocker Spaniel is playful and friendly. What a cutie. She has a wonderful, sweet disposition. We recently discovered that she loves to play tennis ball fetch! Our vet thinks that she is about 3 yrs old and she weighs about 22 lbs. She seems good with our other foster dogs - both large and small. We also noted that she is friendly with cats too. When we found Chelsea in the shelter, she had been picked up as a stray dog. We noted that she had what is called "cherry eye" in her right eye. This can be corrected with a relatively simple surgery that can be done at the same time as her spay surgery. We also noted that at one time, one of her ears had been surgically altered and is now shorter than the other. Either of these two conditions do not seem to bother her too much though. Her winning disposition and friendly outgoing attitude won our hearts over and we decided to help Chelsea find a loving home by making her one of our foster dogs.

Who We Are

We are a 501c3 non-profit canine rescue organization, located in Tracy, California and work with shelters in our area. We are not breed specific and also rescue many mixed breed dogs. However, we do have a special affinity for black and tan dogs and keep our eyes open for Rottweilers in the shelters. We try to save dogs that are in danger of euthanization at the shelters in our area and foster them in home environments until we find a family for them. We house-train them and teach them to live in a home setting. We offer socialization to our rescue dogs by walking them, taking them with us as often as possible, and work with them to get along with other foster dogs in our home. Before adopting a dog out to a new family, we do a home check to ensure that the rescue dog is a good match for the new adopters. If the new adoption does not work out in your home, we will welcome the dog back at any time. In this way, we hope that both you and the dog will be happy with the adoption. Check our adoption process for more details.

We also help dog owners, and people who have found a lost dog, try to find a new home for these pets. We assist them by listing the dog on our petfinder site as an owner assist listing. The owner or current caretaker of the pet continues to care for the pet and is the contact person for the pet, while the dog is listed on our webpage. Our adoption fees and policies for FCAR do not apply to these dogs. Their adoptions go strictly through their owners and caretakers and we try to help find them new families by providing exposure for them through our petfinder webpages.
