SAXON*

Meet Saxon, a very handsome blonde California Coast Shepherd! We don't know if he's into surfing, and we don't actually know what breeds might be in his background, but we do know that Saxon arrived with Motley, who's likely Saxon's brother and whose coat colors are an interesting blue merle... Both dogs are medium-large with fairly easy-care coats like heelers or short-haired shepherds, lean, athletic builds, and active, intelligent personalities. Although they arrived together, we're looking for separate adoptive homes for them. Saxon walks nicely on leash and is attentive to his handler, loves to go for walks and adventures, but is a cuddler in calm, indoor settings. He's met Maya, a female German Shepherd, and enjoyed playing with her. A dog friend in the home may be a match, especially if they're into active play with plenty of running and bumping. We’d recommend any resident dogs meet at the Shelter prior to adoption. We do not have a history of Saxon with children or cats. The Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter Foundation is now offering “Pawsitivity Bucks” with every dog adoption. This $200 training voucher is a way for newly adopted canines and their guardians to connect with local positive reinforcement based behavior consultants and get their relationship started off on the right paw! Please note: Our Santa Cruz location’s Shelter hours are 11-6pm, 7 days a week! Although clients can walk through and see any animals in their kennels during open hours, we end “meet and greets” (aka meeting an animal out of the kennel) at 4:30pm every day. If you’d like to meet an animal out of the kennel, please arrive before 4:00pm to allow for time to discuss individual animals and meet them.
