THE BOYS ARE ADOPTED AND MOVING TO THEIR FOREVER ON VALENTINE'S DAY❤
Meet our delightful golden brothers, Jago (80 lbs, 9 years old) and Cheerio (70lbs, 5 years old)! These sweethearts are a bonded pair and absolutely adore each other. Although they started out as backyard dogs, they've made a smooth transition to indoor living. Both boys are neutered and up to date on veterinary care, including dental cleanings and baseline blood panels. They're big fans of kids of all ages, and Jago is especially fond of cuddling up on the foster’s bed! At night, they sleep in crates (though they'd happily snuggle on the bed instead). They’ve mastered ignoring the bunnies outside and are curious but untested with cats. Heads up: Jago can get a little car sick, so some planning helps. Cheerio is Jago’s shadow—he doesn’t let his big brother out of sight! These two are a fantastic, fun-loving pair at a great age and must be adopted together. If you’re looking for double the love and double the joy, Jago and Cheerio are your guys! Please visit our website to complete an adoption application, or email [email protected] if you are interested in these wonderful boys. They are being fostered in Sunnyvale.

Rainbow is a handsome 9-year-5-month, 80lb Golden Retriever-Irish Setter mix. But don't let his age fool you; this is a high-energy dog with no plans on slowing down anytime soon! Rainbow is a typical family dog who gets along great with kids and is more than happy lounging by your side. He thrives in the outdoors and LOVES his daily 2-3 mile walks. Rainbow walks well on the leash in a neighborhood/sidewalk setting, but he's also a strong dog who requires an experienced, alert, and sturdy owner to manage him if he sees a cat or squirrel. Because of Rainbow's size and strength, we'd recommend kids ages 9 and up in the household. Rainbow is good with other dogs, unless toys are involved. Because he does not like to share his toys, we are recommending that he be the only dog in the home. Rainbow has excellent manners at home and is accustomed to his schedule. He will take himself to bed early, sleep all night, and usually waits to be awakened to start the day if it's before 7 am. He does not jump on furniture, loves his bed, and is very affectionate once trust is established. He greets people nicely at the door with guidance and encouragement, and is very, very treat-motivated, so training is fun and interactive. He may have a history of counter-surfing; however, nothing has been observed by his foster mom. He shows no destructive behaviors in the yard or inside the house, and he greets people and other dogs politely on his walks.

Cats are a definite NO. Rainbow completed a wellness exam with blood work in January and has no known health issues. If you're looking for a fantastic companion dog and are an experienced dog owner committed to giving him the daily exercise he needs, please reach out to your Area Coordinator or indicate your interest on your application. Rainbow is being fostered in Chico.
