Phoebe in Pittsburg, CA

Here is the pup with her new mom…

Phoebe is a lovely, five-year-old tricolor Cavalier. She is a little bit bashful in the beginning, but quickly warms up. After a while, she will lay by your side and want your attention. She is not a kisser, but will paw you for attention and likes to inch her way into your lap. Phoebe is not 100% Velcro, but will follow you around occasionally. Phoebe is also fine relaxing on the couch waiting for you to return from a short errand.

Phoebe is fantastic on her bathroom skills. She will bark lightly if she wants to go when you are not paying attention to her, or when her foster Mom asks “Want to go potty?” every few hours. Out she goes to take care of her business quickly.

Phoebe likes walks, but she pulls a little on the leash and may cut you off at times, so that needs ongoing work. Her one bad habit is shredding paper! Phoebe has gotten into the bathroom tissue for a “toilet paper caper,” and if she finds a paper towel, a Kleenex or piece of mail she will start to shred it!

Phoebe’s loving Mom surrendered her because Phoebe needed a very expensive surgery to remove her anal glands. Phoebe was spayed and had a dental at the same time, so now this sweet girl is 100% ready for her forever home! She does have a barely audible heart murmur that is common in Cavaliers.

Phoebe was free-fed before and came into rescue a bit chubby, not that we are body shaming! She is now eating measured amounts for two meals a day with each being a third of a cup of food. Phoebe is down to 24 from 28 pounds, with 20 pounds as her goal weight. Regular exercise will keep her in tip top shape. Phoebe hasn’t had any cat or small children experience.

Phoebe enjoys having another canine playmate, but would also be okay as an only dog getting lots of attention. She needs low alone time, so a retired person or someone working from home will be perfect.

If you can meet all of Phoebe’s needs and live within a couple of Pittsburg, please complete our online application. Then email our Northern California Coordinator, Sarah Knudsen at sayrahk@gmail.com to let her know of your interest in this sweet girl.

Cody in Castro Valley, CA

Here is Cody with his new family…

The sweet little man behind the magnificent mutton chops is Cody. He’s a 3 year old, neutered, black and tan boy that’s heart and overall healthy. He is happy-go-lucky, confident, very well behaved, completely house trained, affectionate and just everything you want in a cavalier. Not to mention how devastatingly handsome he is! He has nice clean teeth and is up to date on his shots. He was surrendered by his loving owner when they could no longer care for him.

Cody looks like a cartoon character or a teddy bear and is just as soft and snuggly. He’s not fat, he’s just really fluffy! He loves walks but pulls a bit on a leash. Dedicated leash training will help this sweet boy be an even more wonderful companion. He gets along with the cavaliers in his foster home and all dogs that he’s met. Cats, however are another story and since they run, he thinks he needs to chase them.

Cody likes to watch tv and barks at dogs, cats and Wookies! He will even go behind the tv looking for them. You won’t ever be able to watch dog shows after he moves in! He loves children and will be a great family dog with older, respectful kiddos. He sleeps quietly in a crate but would love to share your big bed.

He needs low alone hours, a fenced yard and a dog door would be nice but he will signal at the back door if you don’t have one. This sweet boy will make some lucky family a wonderful little companion.

If Cody is your dreamboat and you can fill his wish list in a new home please completely fill out an application, then email your interest to Sarah Knudsen at sayrahk@gmail.com, our Northern California Coordinator. Online Application
