Adoptable SCAA Dogs & Puppies
|
Health
SCAA foster puppies & dogs ready for adoption have:
Vaccines are started when fosters are healthy at either at 10 weeks old or 7-10 days from rescue with a next set 4-5 weeks later. Their rabies vaccination is not an official one. Spay / Neuter is generally done at around 6 - 7 months of age. For animals too young for surgery on adoption, SCAA offers half-price surgery costs at PAW for adopters. |
Training & Temperament
A foster dog's temperament and training varies based on their pre-rescue conditions (if known), condition on rescue, age, socialization, and time in foster care. All foster dogs are adoptable. Every foster dog has a well-suited home waiting, from kid-friendly to quiet. Foster parents work on toilet training, walking foster dogs on a leash (it's safe and the law), and socializing dog with new experiences with different people, pets, and situations. Foster dog adoptions may be finalized at the Shenpu Pet Hospital, where adopters take the first step in licensing their new dog. |
LUNA Female > 1 year
FAMILY DOG / GENTLE / FRIENDLY / WELL-TRAINED
LUNA NEEDS A SUMMER FOSTER HOME FROM MID-JUNE
|
|
Luna is one of the loveliest dogs we've ever met. She's happy, gentle, affectionate, and an overall pushover when it comes to meeting new people; she doesn't hesitate to greet you by rolling over and flashing her belly. Scratch her chest and you're best friends forever.
Found all alone during Chinese New Year holidays, Luna was leaning against a building to shelter herself from the rain. She was surrounded by cartons of convenience store snacks and milk that people had been leaving for her. She'd obviously been there a few days. Luna's rescuer need not cautiously approach her - she immediately came over, wagging her tale, then did her signature back roll / belly up move. The rest, as they say, is history.
Luna is is healthy and was recently spayed. She's well-trained and enjoyed some rope toys for chewing. She walks well on a lead, with the caveat that Luna doesn't really walk much at all. We can tell her previous owners didn't exercise her often. She's slowly taking to being more active and is losing a bit of weight.
An ideal family dog or canine companion for anyone with enough time to meet Luna's needs and introduce her to plenty of new friends for some socializing and of course belly rubs.

COCO Female 2 years
ACTIVE / FRIENDLY / AFFECTIONATE / SHY / WELL-TRAINED
COCO NEEDS A SUMMER FOSTER HOME FROM MID-JUNE
|
|
Coco started off in foster care as a tiny baby, was adopted, and is unfortunately back in care. She's a super dog so we're sure this time around she'll find the right home.
Coco can be shy around new people, but with slow introductions from her familiar person, she's her sweet self in no time. She's well-suited for a family with older kids and not toddlers as she can jump and run without much coordination or attention to the people around her.
After spending time with elderly caregivers who couldn't give her the attention and energy she enjoys, Coco now craves companionship and would love a home with someone around regularly. Coco is a prime example of just because you "can" leave an adult dog to their own devices, doesn't mean they're happy about it. Think of Coco as a forever puppy, but one that's toilet trained.
Coco is fully vaccinated and spayed.

HERSHEY Male 13 years
FAMILY DOG / QUIET / NEEDY FOR COMPANIONSHIP / WELL-TRAINED / SINGLE PET ONLY
|

Hershey is an old dog set in his ways. Luckily his ways are pretty fantastic. He loves being with people. He's so needy for attention and to just be included that he's not suited to a quiet home with owners away much of the day.
Hershey was abandoned to a pet shop, likely by his owner's family. He wasn't neutered and his mouth was rotten from poor care. All his teeth had to be pulled. He definitely feels better for it and it hasn't slowed down his inhalation of kibble or the enjoyment he gets gumming plastic water bottles.
Hershey is fully vaccinated, had full dental extractions, and is neutered.

BEAR Female > 1 year
FAMILY DOG / SWEET / GENTLE / WELL-TRAINED
BEAR NEEDS A SUMMER FOSTER HOME FROM MID-JUNE
|
|
Bear recently came into foster care after she stubbornly followed a kind animal lover all the way home. A clever little dog (she's much smaller than her photos suggest!), Bear knew she was in good company when her rescuer let her in and soon arranged urgent boarding and a PAW health check.
With no microchip and flyers online and around the neighborhood where Bear was wandering not yielding any clues to her origins, Bear doesn't seem to have any family missing her. But that's ok now as we're sure such a sweet little dog will find a great forever family. She's a compulsive tail wagger and presses herself gently against you when you pet her. If you stop petting Bear she'll slowly reach out a front paw to remind you to please keep giving her attention.
Bear started vaccination and has parasite control. She'll finish her jabs and be spayed before moving in with adopters.
