Ever dreamed of having a German Shepherd but thought, “She’s too big for my apartment” or “I couldn’t handle that much dog”? Meet Callie — the shepherd-sized sweetheart with all the personality in a more petite package! Callie is a lively, lovable 3-year-old who’s always ready for her next adventure. Bursting with curiosity and charm, she’s happiest when she’s on the move — whether that’s exploring the neighborhood, playing with her doggy buddies, or checking in on the sounds of a crying baby like a true little nanny. She knows her basic commands and is eager to please, though her curious spirit sometimes leads her off track. With a bit of structure and patience, she’ll continue to thrive as a quick and enthusiastic learner. Callie would do best in an active home with someone who can match her energy and give her the attention and stimulation she craves. If you’re looking for a loyal, fun-loving companion in a slightly smaller shepherd-sized package, Callie could be the perfect fit! show less

Meet Dr. Murphy a 2-year-old Australian Shepherd / American Pit Bull mix weighing in at a perfect 58 pounds of love and loyalty. This sweet soul is a mellow companion who enjoys low-impact hikes, playtime, and most of all—being close to his people. He’s great on leash, crate trained, and fully potty trained. While his early life included long hours confined in an apartment with very little enrichment, he’s now thriving in a foster home with eight other dogs. He’s respectful of canine friends who like him back and is proving to be incredibly trainable and eager to please. If you’re looking for a calm, loving dog who’s already on his way to being the best version of himself, Dr. Murphy is your guy. Ready to give him the second chance he deserves. show less

River is the sweetest little sheperd/malinois mix that possibly ever existed! She is a wonderful combination of the two breeds. She has been wonderful to start her on basics training with, easily mastering a quick sit, stay, down and working on heel now. River is fully house broken as long as the humans make sure she has access to get outside. River is also fully crate trained, sleeping through the night with her favorite nylabone and stuffed animal. River was rescued off the streets of Sacramento and was taken to the local SPCA for her stray hold. Her current foster mom happened to be visiting the SPCA the day after she was dropped off and saw how scared she was, all alone in a big kennel with no other dogs nearby. CalPaws advocated to get River into foster before her stray hold expired, and the day she was available she became part of the CalPaws family officially! River would do best in a home with an adult dog to help guide her. She is currently fostered with 4 adults and she is very respectful and responds very well to their social cues and corrections. River will require an adopter with breed experience that is dedicated to the training and maintenance that her breed requires. Though she seems to take more after the German Sheperd side of her genetics, she has so many of the positive attributes found in the Belgian Malinois. show less

🐾 Meet Blossom 🐾 Blossom is a playful and curious pup with a heart full of love and a nose for adventure! She’s always up for a good game of “ruff house” with the resident nanny dog, and her fun-loving spirit makes her a joy to be around. Crate trained and sleeping through the night like a champ, Blossom is also making great progress with her potty training. She absolutely adores the neighborhood kids and greets them with tail wags and puppy kisses. Blossom would thrive in a home with another friendly dog and dog-savvy children who can match her energy and help her continue to grow into the amazing companion she’s meant to be. If you're looking for a smart, sweet, and spirited pup to join your pack, Blossom might just be your perfect match! 💕 show less

Nugget is a pretty amazing little girl. She is a crowd favorite at events, and a house favorite in her foster home. Nugget is small, stout and full of spunk. She plays delightfully well with the resident adult dogs in her foster home. She is mouthy, but not bitey. She plays hard but is very gentle. Nuggets breed is unknown, but there is something to be said about those ears! We jokingly said that she looks like a frenchie mix, but seeing her side by side with french bull dogs, the resemblance is certainly there. Nugget enjoys her snuggles a whole lot, climbing up into her foster moms lap for some gentle kisses and a nap. She is working on crate training, and has been sleeping throught the night for the most part. Potty training is going really well also. Nugget would make an amazing addition to any household that has a resident dog to help guide her through life, she does not like to be alone. She does well with cats and small breed dogs, likes children and all adults that she has met so far. Puppy: up to 1 yr $450.00 Our dogs are spayed/neutered and a registered chip. For our puppies they are up to date on vaccinations. Once adopted it is the new owner’s responsibility to continue the remaining vaccinations with a veterinarian. Our adoption process includes an initial conversation about the dog to see if the dog is a good match or if another dog could be a more suitable match. We also will complete a home visit. It should be noted that our adoption counselors know the dogs and can best guide any possible adopter with a suitable match. Please visit https://www.calpaws.org/available-dogs for the adoption application! We are always in need of experienced fosters for the amount of dogs we have coming in. Being a foster is such a rewarding experience. If you are interested please review https://www.calpaws.org/fostering show less
