Nolan is finally ready to go to his forever home. Nolan is great with his foster pack, good with his furry foster brother and great with the resident cats. Nolan is not hindered by only having three legs, in fact he is able to navigate nicely on his three legs. Nolan is house trained. He loves his foster family and loves going on adventures in the car. This is a huge progress for him since he was very afraid of car rides when he first came into rescue. Nolan is a ham, he loves his toys, he loves climbing on the bed and especially loves to cuddle his favorite people. This boy has stolen all of our hearts.   Please note: We are a small rescue and do not have the resources to respond to inquiries. If a dog is on our website, it is still available. We can not arrange meet & greet without an application. Adoption fees: $450 for dogs 12 months/younger, $400 for dogs 1-2 Yrs, $350 for dogs 3-5yrs, and $300 for 6yrs and older Please follow Calpaws K9 rescue on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/CalpawsK9Rescue) for updates on our dogs. Nolan was born with a birth defect and his back foot never formed completely. His back leg was super short with a nub on the end. Nolan had learned to walk with his shorter leg, but it was apparent it left him vulnerable and fearful. We met Nolan on several occasions at the Oakland Shelter and we instantly fell in love with him. We wanted to help Nolan and be a part of his journey. We believed that if Nolan’s leg was amputated, he would be less vulnerable and have a better chance of thriving and ultimately being adopted. We are in hopes that Nolan world becomes a bigger and better place. Nolan is spending his first night in his new foster home. He has a fur foster brother and a wonderful family who will help Nolan to navigate through this new world. Update 04/16/2021 On Tuesday Nolan received a trans pelvic amputation. We believe Nolan was born with his leg partially deformed. The nub at the end of his leg he would rely on, but looked like it put lots of stress on his other leg. The back part of his body sloped to accommodate the uneven legs. Nolan slowly navigated around vulnerable with his deformed leg. In the animal world this leaves a animal prey for others in the pack, this usually meant death amongst the pack. This video is of Nolan running with his foster brother, Leo. It is amazing that only two days after major surgery Nolan is more fluid and agile than he has ever been. We were happy to share the updated videos with the staff and volunteers at Oakland Animal Shelter. Even they were happy for Nolan and very impressed. So thank you to Oakland Animal Services for working with us and being patient with CalPaws. Another special thank you to the Sacco family for being Nolan’s special family and amazing fosters.

Please note: We are a small rescue and do not have the resources to respond to inquiries. If a dog is on our website, it is still available. We can not arrange meet & greet without an application. Adoption fees: $450 for dogs 12 months/younger, $400 for dogs 1-2 Yrs, $350 for dogs 3-5yrs, and $300 for 6yrs and older Max joined our pack last week from the Stanislaus Animal Shelter. Max is settling In nicely with his foster mom and dad, Susan and Chris. This is what they had to say about Max. Max is a very friendly and active German Shepherd. At 7 years old, he has a very sweet personality and would be great with an active family. He loves his walks and has even started running with his foster dad. He is well behaved indoors (no accidents at all) and doesn’t seem interested in chewing shoes or any other items in the house. Max is like a shadow around the house and in the yard, he loves spending time with people. Chris is working with Max on his leash manners and he has also had the chance to meet some other dogs. Max can get a little exuberant with other dogs, but responds well to direction from his leader and just wants to play. Max has met some younger kids (maybe 5 years old) and was friendly and well behaved with them. He is not cat tested. Part of the reason Max is so well behaved is that he came from a home environment and only ended up in the shelter because his owner passed away. Max would flourish in an active household where he could get some daily exercise. He is a friendly, well-balanced dog and will make a great companion to a lucky family. Max is fully vaccinated and neutered and weighs about 72lbs.

Hello from 3 “Little Rascals” - Buck, Spanky and Alfalfa. We are the most adorable puppies (if we say so ourselves) and are getting cuter by the day! We will be ready to go to our forever homes soon, so we wanted to stop by and say hi here! We came to our foster family just a week back. Bella, our foster dog 🐕 mom, came from Calpaws K9 Rescue too! Our foster mom and her girls have been training us and giving us tons on love. We now know how to sit and even give a “paw” (oh my!) Don’t be mistaken though. We will be naughty puppies for a while. We will also get pretty big when we grow up. We will stop by again as we get more ready. For now, we can use all the love you have 😍 Spanky is the naughtiest of the litter. The smallest but no doubt the mightiest. He has a ton of energy and is always up for some play and exploration. Spanky is also the quickest to learn. He has mastered the sit and paw and is now learning to “down” Spanky is highly food motivated and even “asks” for treats. He always finishes up his food and won’t be small for much longer. We think he might grow up to be 60+ lbs.    Buck or Buckie as we call him is the largest in the litter. His eyes will melt your heart. He is literally a bug bear - fluffy and loving.  He loves his humans, his belly rubs and relaxing on his back. He is playful, yet calm. He is food motivated and a quick learner. He already knows sit and paw. He is eager to learn so much more. He even goes straight to his crate after playtime! Buckie will be a large dog (70lbs + ) when he grows up. He is already a healthy 15 lbs at 11 weeks. He is growing fast!    Alfalfa or Alfie as we call him is an adorable , calm (as calm as a puppy can be!) and fluffy puppy. We call him the escape artist (Houdini ;))  - he is always the first to get out of the playpen and hide under the couch.  Alfie loves people and he is quite happy by himself. He will play with his brothers but is also content to relax in a corner. Alfie knows sit and he is learning to give a paw.  PUPPY ADOPTIONS: IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN ADOPTING A PUPPY, PLEASE NOTE THAT WE REQUIRE RECENT EXPERIENCE WITH RAISING A PUPPY, OBEDIENCE TRAINING EXPERIENCE, A GOOD SIZE BACK YARD, MOSTLY HOME, NO BABIES OR TODDLERS, AND A SOLID PLAYFUL, RESIDENT DOG (A PUPPY NEEDS A ROLE MODEL AND SOMEONE TO PLAY WITH).  More pictures might be available on https://www.calpaws.org/available-dogs at a later time.

He is the poster boy for curious and mischievous puppies. And oh boy, he has no shortage of words to let you how he is feeling. He is learning “quiet” and doing well. Barkley would do best with another dog that would play and rump and roll with him. He is doing well with potty training given it’s only been a short time he learned the rules. He sleeps nicely in his crate at night and is working on basic commands. Barkley is going to be a large boy based on his age and current weight of almost 18 pounds. As with all puppies his potential pack must be committed to providing ongoing training and socialization opportunities so Barkley can be his best big boy self.

Please note: We are a small rescue and do not have the resources to respond to inquiries. If a dog is on our website, it is still available. We can not arrange meet & greet without an application. Adoption fees: $450 for dogs 12 months/younger, $400 for dogs 1-2 Yrs, $350 for dogs 3-5yrs, and $300 for 6yrs and older So Tank, aka Joey, came to CalPaws rescue via Santa Cruz. He was injured as a young pup, possibly by a car, and fractured his left front leg. The vet said he's healing well and shouldn't have any problems in the future.  However,  his leg should be monitored  to ensure he's fine. Well, needless to say he wasn't happy and was agressive towards everyone he met after his injury. CalPaws found him a wonderful foster that was a bit overwhelmed with his actions and had to seek a more experienced handler. Since his arrival at his new foster home, Tank has learned basic obedience, both in English and in German.  He loves to play with his Kong, ball and chew on his heavy rope. He's great with young kids and loves other dogs,  although he can be a bit rough given his age. He entertains himself at times, but prefers rough play to tire himself out. He's still a bit apprehensive of strangers but is doing great when meeting new people that don't show fear around dogs. The greatest part is he thinks he's a lap dog and loves to be on your lap in the evenings to make sure you know he's a part of the family. Mum loves him and he lays by her feet both day and night. He loves to travel, walk and run. Play with his toys and entertain you.  He's a bit of a goofball, which comes with a 10 month old GS. Tank would do best with an experienced handler that truly understands the GS breed. Having another dog would help, but not necessary for him to adapt to a new family. Overall, Tank is an amazing 10 mo old GS pup that needs training and love. Please research this breed prior to filling out an application so you are fully informed.
