Chicky came to us, scared of her own shadow, we even had to go so far as to carry her from the car to the house, carry her into the backyard to use the bathroom, and she was frozen in fear every moment of the day, until we grabbed a leash when would come alive. So we started walking her and walking her and walking her and taking her to the dog park and getting her out of the house as much as possible she used to be petrified of Brian and now he’s one of her favorite people on the planet. she never barks, she is the most well-behaved dog I’ve ever had in my house, she knows where her bed is. She knows where her sitting spots are, and she never choose anything except a dog toy. She is such a loving, sweetheart, and as long as she’s getting regular walks, she’s quite a happy dog. She is scared of children and loud teenagers, even being in our house since December, that has not changed however, her fear of strangers in general has gotten much better, over the last few weeks she’s now started taking treats from strangers at the dog park.! She is also cat friendly! Adoption fees: Adult: 1-6 yrs $400.00 Each of our dogs are fully vaccinated to include Bordetella, DHLPP and Rabies.

Meet Moldaver! Moldaver is a sweet, smart, goofy girl who loves nothing more than to be at your side, whether it’s embarking on a new adventure, learning some fun new tricks, or curling up at your feet after a long day. She is a fast learner and already knows how to sit, lay down, stay, come, and leave it. She is working on house training and crate training, and sleeps through the night in her crate. She’s great at keeping herself entertained with her toys, but also enjoys chasing and wrestling other dogs. Moldaver is good with kids, and she’s curious about cats, but knows to leave them be. She is enjoying exploring the world on a leash, and still working on her leash training. At times Moldaver can be timid about new things, but once you show her its ok, she’s ready to jump into the action. Moldaver is active and highly intelligent, and would do well in a home that matches her desire to train and learn, and that has a yard for her to run in.

Bio for DUTCH: Dutch came to CALPAWS via the Los Banos Animal Shelter.  If you want to describe him in one word, look up "gregarious," and you will understand his personality very well.  Dutch loves nothing more than to love & be loved, and has quickly established himself as the "mayor" of his current foster home.   Be warned: Dutch is big and powerful, and so his efforts to express affection might well bowl you over, literally!  Fortunately, however, he is very compliant and will come when called every time and is always extremely eager to please! Dutch will require a large and sturdy crate or kennel, but once he learns he can't pop the doors, he ceases any effort to try to escape.   Dutch has shown great ability to get along with both small and big dogs and can be described as "Cat curious" but has never shown any aggression toward them (or any other animal).   Dutch will definitely enjoy a home where he has plenty of space to run and play.  He's a big gentle teddy bear with a big loving heart, and he needs a big space to blow off energy. He is fun, loving and goofy!    Dutch originally came from Kern county. He was a lucky boy who was able to make it out of the shelter. He was liked a lot at the shelter and they advocated for him. Which is how he became a CalPaws dog!  Adult: 1-6 yrs $400.00 Each of our dogs are fully vaccinated to include Bordetella, DHLPP and Rabies.
