Roxie, terrier mix
Roxie is a winsome female terrier mix currently residing at Happy Tails Pet Sanctuary.
No other pets please: Roxie is looking for forever home without other dogs or cats. She's spayed and vaccinated. She's already house-trained.
From Roxie's current caretaker:
Roxie is playful, fun and in excellent health. Nine is just a number for her. She loves long walks but is also comfortable cuddling up with you on the sofa. She would do equally well in a home with a lot of activity or in a quiet setting. She loves to be with her people and does not like to be alone at night.

Emma, cocker spaniel
Emma is a female cocker spaniel dog being kept at NorCal Cocker Rescue.
Emma is looking for cat-free family. Emma would prefer a home without small children. She is already house-trained. She has all of her shots, and she's spayed.
From Emma's current caretaker:
She is a sweet, affectionate girl, with big brown eyes and an adorable under bite. When not curled up in your lap giving you kisses and love, she loves to play fetch with a tennis ball, take walks, go on car rides and stay close to your side. Emma is a little bit dominant with other dogs, so might be better as an only dog.

Corky, cocker spaniel
Corky is a male cocker spaniel dog currently housed at NorCal Cocker Rescue.
Corky loves other dogs. He already has all of his shots, and he's neutered. He's already been house-trained.
From Corky's current caretaker:
Meet Corky, our two-year-old boy that will melt your heart with his sweet face and disposition. Corky is fairly easy going for a young boy, but you need to keep a good eye on him, as he is a runner and door darter. He needs a good size yard to run in and someone that can be home with him the majority of the time to give him lots of attention, exercise and training. He is good with other dogs, but at his best snuggled up next to you.

From Coco's current caretaker:
Coco is a wonderful little dog. She is very sweet, cuddly and affectionate. This girl is smart too — she figured out how to use the dog door and puppy pads by observing the resident dogs. She loves to play and would like a brother or sister playmate, or frequent play times with her people or other pups. She also enjoys going for walks.

Parker gets along with all people and would love to go for walks, car rides and be anywhere that you are.
