Brad Is your type 'Tall, Dark, and Handsome"? How about a sensitive soul? Brad ticks all the boxes and you are in luck - he's available. Brad came to Calpaws from the Oakland shelter. He's not a fan of the hustle and bustle of city life - he's more of a small town, sleepy neighborhood kind of guy. Brad does well with other dogs, but is just as happy to be solo too. He's 7 years old, about 75 lbs and a tall drink of water. He's a shy boy and prefers hanging at home for netflix and chill vs the party scene. Brad does well left alone on his own, is fully house trained, crate trained and improving his leash skills every day. Brad makes a great work from home buddy - snoozing through those meetings and content with a walk or two each day. Brad would love a house with a yard for some games of fetch or just chilling on the grass.  Brad has had some training and does well with structure and being given tasks. Brad is super smart and a really good dog. Adoption fees: Senior: 6+ yr $350.00 Each of our dogs are fully vaccinated to include Bordetella, DHPP, DHLPP and Rabies. We deworm each dog and chip.

Casper, or “Cas,” as we like to call him, is a ~6mo male Belgian Malinois. He is the handsomest guy around and boy does he know it! Cas came from a tough situation where he was almost euthanized for having a broken front leg. Thankfully he has an amazing young lady that advocated for him. She reached our far and wide till she got ahold of us. We got him the care he needed. His leg is on the mend and he is doing great now! Cas would do best in a home with an experienced handler. His ideal owner would be someone who wants to give him a job! He has a ton of energy, drive, and intensity. That being said, Cas does have some fear-based anxiety that needs to be curbed with appropriate training. Fortunately, Cas is very food motivated and is always looking to please his person! Cas already knows how to sit, lie down, and stay! He is also crate-trained and does very well in his crate.  Cas has done fairly well with his two foster brothers (a GSD and Malinois). Cas loves to play with his Malinois foster brother, but he can sometimes get a bit too riled up if not watched closely. Finding a home where he can be the sole lover or a perfect match sibling is going to be key! Like most Mals, Cas is a lovebug with his person, but needs someone with experience and time to put into his training. With the appropriate care and training, Cas will be your absolute best friend! P.S. his puppy kisses are to die for <3 Puppy: up to 1 yr $450.00 Each of our dogs are fully vaccinated to include Bordetella, DHPP, DHLPP and Rabies. We deworm each dog and chip.

Chicky came to us, scared of her own shadow, we even had to go so far as to carry her from the car to the house, carry her into the backyard to use the bathroom, and she was frozen in fear every moment of the day, until we grabbed a leash when would come alive. So we started walking her and walking her and walking her and taking her to the dog park and getting her out of the house as much as possible she used to be petrified of Brian and now he’s one of her favorite people on the planet. she never barks, she is the most well-behaved dog I’ve ever had in my house, she knows where her bed is. She knows where her sitting spots are, and she never choose anything except a dog toy. She is such a loving, sweetheart, and as long as she’s getting regular walks, she’s quite a happy dog. She is scared of children and loud teenagers, even being in our house since December, that has not changed however, her fear of strangers in general has gotten much better, over the last few weeks she’s now started taking treats from strangers at the dog park.! She is also cat friendly! Adoption fees: Adult: 1-6 yrs $400.00 Each of our dogs are fully vaccinated to include Bordetella, DHPP, DHLPP and Rabies. We deworm each dog and chip.

My name is Cora, I am house trained and crate trained. I have been working on my leash skills. I have had some training and I have made huge progress. I have really worked on my socializing skills and I am really a great dog at events.    I am patient with other dogs and love people (especially if they give me treats). I am a foodie and will want to try anything that you eat, though I don't beg. I even do a great impression of a vacuum when you drop your food. I am crate trained and housebroken.     I love to chase balls and all other toys. I am very gentle with my toys. I love walks and car rides. I am gentle with my foster sister (Nessie) and let her share my toys. I do have a strong prey drive and would need a slow introduction to cats or not be in a home with cats. I have had a little interaction with children and did well with them. I know sit, stay, paw, and am learning down and place. I love to sleep near you at night and I am really sweet dog.  Adoption fees: Adult: 1-6 yrs $400.00 Each of our dogs are fully vaccinated to include Bordetella, DHPP, DHLPP and Rabies.

Diamond was found, along with his sister Pearl, in August 2023, living off the land in the orchards of Tulare County. At first, he did not trust anyone and wouldn't come within 10 feet of them. After some long-term trust building, he eventually came to eat from your hand and was ultimately trapped in October 2023, two months after first being discovered. Diamond was somebody's pet, and how he wound up living in an orchard is anybody's guess as he was fully spayed, chipped, and is very obedient & loving. Unfortunately, after a lengthy wait time, the registered owner did not respond to phone calls or texts, and Diamond was cleared for adoption. He can still tend to be on the shy (protective) side around strangers (i.e., the vet or groomer) but ultimately warms up once he sees there is no threat. Overall, he is responding very well to being back in civilization and living in a home setting. He is fully crate trained. Diamond is likely not a good fit for a cat-friendly home, as there have been two incidents of aggression. However, he disengages immediately when ordered to stop. Otherwise, Diamond is a lovable, gentle, friendly soul who has somehow been given the short end of the stick in life. He is great with other dogs, both large & small.  Adult: 1-6 yrs $400.00 Each of our dogs are fully vaccinated to include Bordetella, DHPP, DHLPP and Rabies. We deworm each dog and chip. Lastly, we spay or neuter each of our dogs. 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.

Bio for DUTCH: Dutch came to CALPAWS via the Los Banos Animal Shelter.  If you want to describe him in one word, look up "gregarious," and you will understand his personality very well.  Dutch loves nothing more than to love & be loved, and has quickly established himself as the "mayor" of his current foster home.   Be warned: Dutch is big and powerful, and so his efforts to express affection might well bowl you over, literally!  Fortunately, however, he is very compliant and will come when called every time and is always extremely eager to please! Dutch will require a large and sturdy crate or kennel, but once he learns he can't pop the doors, he ceases any effort to try to escape.   Dutch has shown great ability to get along with both small and big dogs and can be described as "Cat curious" but has never shown any aggression toward them (or any other animal).   Dutch will definitely enjoy a home where he has plenty of space to run and play.  He's a big gentle teddy bear with a big loving heart, and he needs a big space to blow off energy. He is fun, loving and goofy!    Dutch originally came from Kern county. He was a lucky boy who was able to make it out of the shelter. He was liked a lot at the shelter and they advocated for him. Which is how he became a CalPaws dog!  Adult: 1-6 yrs $400.00 Each of our dogs are fully vaccinated to include Bordetella, DHPP, DHLPP and Rabies. We deworm each dog and chip. Lastly, we spay or neuter each of our dogs. 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.

Felix is an approximately 3 years old German shepherd mix. He has that BEAUTIFUL classic black and tan shepherd coat and is sure to get lots of compliments when out and about! Felix can be nervous when meeting new people and new dogs, so he does best with slow introductions and would thrive with an owner who is committed to continuing his training and socialization. Once comfortable, Felix is a silly, goofy, fun dog. He loves the outdoors and would do best in an active home. He enjoys going for walks and would make a fabulous hiking and/or jogging partner. He loves to use his nose and play fetch. However his most favorite place to be is sitting next to his person. He seems to prefer the ladies but has bonded with a couple males, it just takes a bit longer. Felix has gotten along with a large male shepherd and a medium sized pitbull in his foster home with slow introductions. He has made a few feline friends as well so shows cat potential when introduced properly. Felix is nervous in the car but he is slowly learning that the car means fun adventures!! He is crate trained, potty trained, and walks well on the leash. He is very affectionate and eager to please. He loves his treats. A great dog with a ton of potential but needs someone who is going to give him time to feel comfortable and show just how awesome he is. To find out more about Felix please go online to CalPaws.org or send an email to cpk9rescue@gmail.com Adoption fees:   Dogs over 1 and under 6 years old: $400 Each of our dogs are fully vaccinated to include Bordetella, DHPP, DHLPP and Rabies.

Figgy is a striking German Shepherd, Lab Mix, about 3 years old. She is eager to learn, be loved, and give love.   Fig is crate-trained, house broken, and knows basic commands. Fig has a calm, gentle demeanor and seeks out affection from her humans. She sometimes has her guard up when meeting new friends but warms up quickly and then she is ready to be besties! Fig prefers friends closer to her size but she gets along with all dogs and is strictly the canine variety, I guess she can't shake her history of chasing cats in the street. She enjoys long walks and is great on a leash. She is not easily startled by cars, motorcycles, or sirens. Fig is looking for her forever companions to spend quiet evenings with and help her live her best life. Fig is a really great dog, a solid girl.

Frank looks a lot like his sister Lola but larger. He has beautiful black  tan and white markings and very large paws. He is going to likely be the largest out of these 4. He loves to wrestle and chew. He is very outgoing and carefree. He is a curious guy and has no problem investigating new people/things. He gets along great with his siblings but plays the roughest. He gets along with other dogs just sometimes comes on a little strong if he is the same size or bigger than the dog because he's a puppy and doesn't realize his size/weight with his clumsiness. He loves to play with toys and carry around a ball. He loves to lick your face and wag his tail. He is puppy pad trained and working on potty training outside with great success. He has met older children and gotten along with them great. He has not met any cats yet but I think with proper introduction/training he could cohabitate with cats just fine. Puppy: up to 1 yr $450.00 Each of our dogs are fully vaccinated to include Bordetella, DHPP, DHLPP and Rabies. We deworm each dog and chip. Lastly, we spay or neuter each of our dogs.
