Ricky's Story

Ricky is a male German Shepherd who is approximately five years old, and currently weighs about 87 pounds. He was brought to our shelter on 4/22/26 after being found in Castro Valley. He hasn't been reclaimed by his previous person, so he's now looking for a new home! He has been vaccinated, neutered, and micro-chipped. <br/><br/>His adoption fee is $35, plus licensing (if applicable). His neuter surgery has already been paid for! Ricky qualifies for Fluffy Dog Friday! Adopt him on a Friday and we'll waive his adoption fee!
