Captain is fully grown at a chunky 55 lbs. He loves soft, warm beds; love, treats, and attention from people; baths (so long as the water and shampoo are the previously-agreed upon minimum temperature); sunning on warm days; and chewing on his buffalo horn. Captain is crate trained and is working on his leash training. True to the xolo breed, he is ‘handsy’ with his front paws. Captain is super sweet and almost never barks. He could possibly live with another female dog of compatible temperament but could also be an only dog. We don’t know how he’d do with cats. While he is temperamentally sound to be around children, he is strong and has a whip of a tail, so kids should be big enough they’re not getting knocked over or getting that tail in the face. He requires minimal skin care via weekly or biweekly baths (depending on the weather) and loves jammies/jackets on cold days. If interested, please send an email to adoptarescuedog@aol.com with a bit about how Captain would be a good fit for you. We can arrange a pandemic-appropriate meeting and go from there. (The foster home is in West San Jose)

Ember is on the petite side approximately 45 pounds. She is, super sweet and wants so hard to please you. Unfortunately she is only now learning the ropes of life. She is doing very well with walking on a leash, likes car rides, is crate trained and working on basic obedience. Ember would love an active home, she would be a great jogging partner! She should have someone dedicated to training, exercising and teaching her the ropes! She is very active, not a barker, can hear and loves to be loved on! Ember is a little shy around new things but overall is a sweetheart. She is selective on interacting with other dogs and will chase cats. She is good with people and children. The adoption fee $300.00

Callie is fully grown at about 12 pounds. She is very sweet with a gentle nature. She needs a patient adopter who will help build confidence with strangers and who will make sure to attend obedience classes. Callie is almost completely housebroken but needs to be watched if it has been a while since going outside. She seems to get along with other dogs and plays with her foster mom’s dog. Her favorite thing is to be in someone’s lap and but can be insistent about occupying one. However, she will choose another location when told. Callie is leash trained and was good for her bath. She would do best in an adult home. She has not been cat tested.

Princess is such a sweet little girl. She is a little shy at first but warms up quickly. She would do great with another small dog in her family. She loves to play with her toys and likes to cuddle up on a lap. Princess is very tiny at only 4 lbs. She is crate trained, chipped, spayed, and up to date on her shots. Due to her small size no children under 7 please.

Blondie is around 80 lbs now, and could be 90 or more pounds by the time she’s done filling out. She arrived in rescue with a large wound on her chest that has healed nicely. She is leash trained and knows "down", "leave it", and "come." However, she should go to a home that has some experience with large breeds and will continue her training . Blondie is gentle, goofy, playful and very smart. She has a soft mouth, is potty trained, sleeps well in a crate, and rides well in the car. She loves toys, snuggles, and is quick to give affection to all. Blondie makes a great running partner and is good on leash. She is good for her bath and loves being brushed. She is good around pools and confined areas. Blondie should be good with well-matched dogs and with children who are big enough not to be knocked down easily. Cats are unknown.

Duke is fully grown at a relatively petite 100 lbs. He is a lovely dog who is good for his bath, car rides, and walks. Duke is crate trained, is not overly barky, and does not go after squirrels on the fence. He should do well with similar sized female dogs, children who are tall enough to avoid getting whapped in the face by his tail, and does not seem to react to cats. He has a generally decent demeanor, knows "sit", and would be a good candidate for a basic obedience class to polish up his manners. Duke has been neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed, and flea treated. He also had his ears flushed and has had a dental.

Elliot is 81 lbs of yeehaw exuberance. He enjoys racing around the yard with his toys, and loves attention from people. He is crate trained, good for his bath, and car rides. Elliot is a good, smart, food-motivated boy who needs an adopter who will take him to obedience classes and channel his energy. When not bounding in the yard, Elliot enjoys sunbathing, chewing on bones/antlers, and having a snooze on a soft bed. He has had his cherry eye repaired, been neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, flea-treated, and bathed.

Abby is just a little sweetheart she loves to play and cuddle. Abby is crate trained, spayed, chipped, and up to date on her puppy shots. Abby will need to continue with her potty training. I expect her to be around 8 to 10 lbs when fully grown. Because of Abby's small size no toddlers please.
