German Shepherd Mix

Milo is a 3 year old neutered German Shepherd mix who is up to date on shots, neutered and microchipped. This boy has a lot of training on board and is very smart and eager to learn. We saved him from a kill shelter up north where he was picked up as a stray. He adores playing and running and going for walks. A big boy at 82 pounds he is ready to join a young active lifestyle and will very easily be able to keep up! As with all of us Milo is not without his past trauma or drama’s - it appears that he was not treated well by young children and so we are looking for a no kid household as to not continue that trauma for Milo. Anyone interested in adding Milo to their home permanently or as a foster dog to save his life.

American Staffordshire Terrier

Karmin is oh-so-sweet and very affectionate. She is a petite dog- about 40lbs and the perfect sized cuddle partner. She was rescued from the pound in November where she ended up pregnant and stray, so our rescue scooped her up so she could whelp in the comfort of a foster home. She had 7 pups and has weened them successfully, so now Karmin is ready for her forever home. She is well-mannered in the home and has a stable, well-balanced personality. She is loving, friendly and super cute! No cats or small animals, though, as Karmin thinks they are snacks!

Kelpie/Vizla Mix

Sophie is a lovable, happy dog who lost her home when her owners fell on hard times. She is a playful, sweet dog who is good with kids and other dogs. She is appx 18 months old, weighs 53lbs and could benefit from some training classes so she will bond quickly with her new family. Sophie knows to sit on command and is very responsive and sensitive to her people. She does jump up when excited, and is very energetic. She loves to be petted, cuddled and to give and receive kisses!

Sweet, easy Moira is approx. 6 yrs old, weighs 82 lbs (but should lose about 10lbs with exercise).  Moira is an affectionate, calm, pleasing dog with a nice personality. She is quiet, loving and really looks forward to car rides and slow walks. She has the cutest ‘tap-dance’ rountine she does for treats, and she always takes them softly.  She is a bit hard of hearing and has some arthritis, but she has a lot of love and life left in her and would enjoy being your new companion. Moira is house trained, well-mannered and is fine with other dogs when out  on her walks. Moira was rescued from the shelter when she was dumped by her first owners to no fault of her own, and she would love a chance to spend her remaining years being your side.

Dani is appx 2-3 yrs old, weighs 31lbs and is a happy, friendly dog. She knows some commands, and is very alert and observant, so she may enjoy learning tricks or doing agility. She loves all people, and enjoys being petted, brushed and getting tons of scratches. She is newly rescued as of 2/7/10, and will be spayed soon. More info to come soon. Dani is available for immediate adoption.

The Dog Shack dogs are fostered in homes around the greater Bay Area, as we do not have a shelter of our own. We are all volunteers who bring these homeless dogs into our own homes and care for them until they are adopted. Therefore, we have no facility for you to visit the dogs, but we will direct you to the specific foster home once an adoption application has been approved. The Forest Knolls address is simply a mailing address, and each dog may be in a foster home anywhere in Napa, Sonoma, Marin, SF, Alameda, San Mateo, Contra Costa, Solano, Santa Cruz, and or Santa Clara counties. We will gladly arrange a meeting with you and the dog you are interested in at a location convenient for you once we have your application.

Phinneas is up-to-date with routine shots and spayed/neutered

Dottie is up-to-date with routine shots and spayed/neutered.
