"Roxie" is an adorable, sweet, eager to please black and white border collie.  She and her six puppies were recently brought to our foster facility from a Northern California shelter.  UPDATE:  Roxie and all of her puppies have been adopted as of early June, 2005.

This is "Xena" and her puppies.  Xena was brought to our facility by caring volunteers from the Merced animal shelter.  Xena gave birth to 7 adorable balls of fur. UPDATE:  Xena and all of her puppies have been adopted as of mid June, 2005.

"Jessie" is a young (1 year old), friendly, playful black labrador retriever.  She was rescued with her 5 little sausage puppies.  These babies have turned out to be very cute - playful, silly, friendly (just like their mom).  They look mostly like black labs, some with slightly thicker hair, some with somewhat stubby tails.   UPDATE:  Jessie and all of her puppies have been adopted as of mid June, 2005.

June, 2005 - Thelma and Louise - These cuties are of "indeterminate breed."  Louise is some kind of little smooth coated dachshund/terrier mix, they don't come any cuter.  Thelma is a rougher coated little girl and looks like a small Australian Shepherd mix.  They are approximately 8 weeks old and are available for adoption now.  We expect them to mature into smaller dogs, probably between 20-30 lbs at maturity each.  UPDATE:  Both Thelma and Louise have been adopted as of mid June, 2005.

June, 2005 - 8 smaller breed puppies.  These cuties look like little terrier mixes.  Whatever they are, they are VERY cute.  These guys will probably top out at 15-25 lbs.  They definitely have personality plus.  UPDATE:  As of June 23, 2005 all of these puppies have ben adopted.

June, 2005 - This is "Yodel" and her puppies.  Yodel gave birth to her 6 adorable puppies in a Northern California animal shelter.  UPDATE:  Yodel and all of her puppies have been adopted as of early July, 2005.

June, 2005 - 2 little boys - One is black with some white, the other is a gorgeous brown merle.  They appear to be labrador retriever/Australian Shepherd mixes but with the shorter lab haircoat.  UPDATE:  As of June 29, 2005, both of these puppies have been adopted.

JULY 2005 - 4 Dalmatian/Australian Shepherd mix puppies.  These puppies were abandonned just after birth (umbilical cords still attached) at a local animal shelter.  3 of the 4 are "special needs" pups as they are deaf.  The 4th puppy has normal hearing.  All 4 puppies are very sweet and very smart.  The deaf puppies will need to be trained with hand gestures instead of just verbal commands but should still become wonderful companions. UPDATE:  As of July 25, 2005, All of these adorable puppies have been adopted

MASTIFF MIX - August, 2005 - The sweetest, goofiest big puppy you can imagine.  Her name is Chelsea and she is an approximately 10 week old Neapolitan Mastiff/Saint Bernard mix.  She is a great baby and is available for adoption now. UPDATE:  Chelsea has been adopted as of August 4, 2005.
