Adoptable SCAA dogs & puppies
As SCAA begings the long process of winding down our unsustainable foster care program due to lack of funds and foster homes, we will have few rescues for homing. However, the animals in our care, sometimes for months or years, make great pets and deserve the chance to find their forever family.
Adoptable means an animal has received at least the vet care basics of health checks, parasite control, vaccinations, and spay / neuter (or subsidy for future surgery). Rescues generally require more intensive test & treatment to be healthy enough to even begin vaccinations. During their time in foster care SCAA & our vet partner PAW do our best to address all medical issues.
From a behavior perspective, kittens are toilet trained from an early age, while puppies take more time. Foster animals can be highly social and confident with everyone, or take time to trust a limited circle of people. Fosters awaiting adoption have demonstrated they'll make a good pet for a well-suited home based on their foster home experience.

Dogs have Drontal & Revolution for parasite control and receive DHPPI, Lepto, and Rabies vaccinations. We generally spay / neuter puppies between 6 & 8 months of age, depending on their size and development.

training & temperament
Foster parents help our dogs & puppies develop into great pets. Walking on a leash (always), toilet training, safe play habits with people & other dogs, and positive reinforcement for learning basic commands get rescues ready.

LEO [RETIRED TO FOSTER CARE]
|
Male 8+ years
|
QUIET | RELAXED | SLOW | NEEDY | NO CATS / NO OTHER DOGS / NO STAIRS
Leo was found a few summers ago, already an older dog and cruelly tied on a hot sidewalk with an elasticized lead digging deep into neck. He's received generous PAW vet care basics like neutering and vaccinations (with microchip) and urgent care for dental issues, summer skin issues, and bladder stones. Leo is partially blind, recently went deaf, and is developing arthritis. Since his foster mom brought her little active dog back to China after summer holidays, Leo is not happy to share what he thought was his space. Leo needs a new, long-term foster. No pets and no stairs. Reach out by WeChat: SCAAShanghai Official Account to help Leo. |
JUNO *needs foster home after training*
|
Male 2 years
|
ACTIVE | CURIOUS | ENERGETIC | AFFECTIONATE | FAMLY & PET FRIENDLY
Juno, Jasper, and Yuki were just a few weeks old in October when they were rescued from a downtown park under renovation. Their feral mom and pack ready to leave them to their own devices in such a dangerous place. The trio moved to SCAA's vet partner, received all the healthcare basics, and have stayed boarding ever since. |
The happy trio loves visitors, roughhousing with each other, and going bonkers for treats. Their puppy excitement is adorable, and their eagerness to please and learn is helping with toilet training - but they each need an attentive foster home to really make progress. The trio is truly lovely, and as they grow up, their individual personalities are shining through. |
Juno is the undisputed leader of his sibling pack. He's curious and confident. Jasper is a quieter boy, but spry and friendly like any young puppy. Their sister Yuki is the introspective one - hanging back to observe what's going on and waiting to see if it's ok to take a chance on new people. Once she knows you, she's stuck to you. Yuki is lagging behind her brothers in size and training schedule - clearly the baby of the litter.
