Flash was confiscated by Hayward Animal Control along with nine other dogs from a hoarding situation. Everyone lived in a single hotel room. All of the dogs were related (puppies having puppies . . . ). Four of the dogs were fixed and returned to the owner, while the other six were left at the shelter. None of them were deemed “adoptable” and no other rescue group would take any of them, so Nobody’s Perfekt Dogs pulled all six into multiple foster homes.

Our understanding was that having 10 related, unfixed dogs in a small place generated a lot of squabbling, which then led to their confiscation. Flash seems to be still affected by that. He lived in a foster home with lots of dogs, but we observed similar behaviors as when he was in the hoarding situation. He has bonded with nearly all of the volunteers that work with him, and is friendly with the visitors to the adoption center that interact with him. He is good on a leash and loves going for walks.

Flash was very bonded to one of his siblings, Sasha. Originally we wanted to keep them together. Unfortunately, during the only sleepover that they ever went on, Sasha escaped and was never heard from again. We assume she is dead. Flash was returned to us when Sasha was lost.

Flash is currently living in our adoption center by himself, waiting to get a chance at a new home with no other dogs.

Please note that we don’t adopt any of our dogs out to homes with children under the age of 13.

Grady (a.k.a. “Bear”) came to foster care from the Stockton animal shelter with a plea to save this wonderful dog. Grady likely was hit by a car and was limping around for an estimated month prior to being picked up by animal control. He had a broken pelvis and needed FHO surgery. He was probably in a lot of pain for two months, if not more. Despite his pain, Grady was labeled a “staff favorite” at the shelter due to his sweet demeanor and love of affection from his human friends there taking care of him. This information led him to being saved by a willing foster with pittie experience and Nobody’s Perfekt Rescue. Grady was pulled out of the shelter, just in the nick of time.

Once in foster care, Grady took a couple of weeks to get used to the house dog. He was in pain, in a crate and in an unfamiliar place, so slow introductions were needed. After about two weeks, he and the house dog, a female pittie named Ruby, became best friends and love play. Grady would love to have a friend to play with in a home but could likely also be the only dog. Grady would be best suited for a dog friend similar in size and gets along well with female dogs. Grady needs slow and proper introductions to another dog through crate or area rotation. On leash, he can be leash reactive when around other big dogs that he does not know. He walks well on leash otherwise but is still limping on his rear left leg.

Grady is a cuddle-lovebug with a very cute little underbite and has the face of a baby bear, hence his nickname. He loves every human he has met so far and loves sleeping in his foster mom’s lap. Grady loves to melt into your arms or lap and hang out on the couch and loves affection. He’s an easy dog to handle and listens well. He knows how to sit, wait and probably shake, but loses balance when he tries, due to his rear leg.

Grady will alert when someone is at the front door and barks at leaf blowers and loud equipment. He will need regular attention and training but responds well to treats and food. He should also be fed separately from any other dog in the house, as most dogs do when food is present. Grady sleeps through the night in his crate and is house-potty trained. He knows how to use a doggie door and uses it regularly in his foster home.

Any home would be lucky to have Grady-Bear and he would make a wonderful addition to any household.

Please note that we don’t adopt any of our dogs out to homes with children under the age of 13.

Nugget came to the shelter from county animal control. He was 7 lbs, and estimated to be around 2 months old. He was in pretty bad shape (severe bloating, horrible skin condition, a perforated corneal ulcer in one eye, and multiple bite wounds all over his body). We didn’t think he would survive, but he started recovering after a couple days in the shelter, so we pulled him into our rescue group. His injured eye was not salvageable and was removed by our vet. His skin condition greatly improved and the wounds healed.

We originally thought he was likely a Chihuahua mix, until he started doubling, tripling, quadrupling in size. DNA testing determined that he is a Shepherd / Pitbull / Husky mix. Not sure how big he will eventually get. Nugget isn’t “into people” like you would expect a puppy to be, probably due to his past. He enjoys the company of other dogs, particularly his foster brother, Roth, who is also a puppy about the same age and size. However, Nugget has bonded with is foster dad, and when all the playing settles down, he will snuggle with his human. We are still working on leash skills (so far, he isn’t into walking on leash, but that should be fixable, especially with another dog in the home who is good on a leash)

Nugget needs a home with another playful dog(s), probably close to his size or larger (initially,he can be a little intimidated by large dogs, but with the right dog and a well thought out introduction, he should do great). Potential adopters must own their home with a good size fenced-in backyard.

Please note that we don’t adopt any of our dogs out to homes with children under the age of 13.

Roth came to the shelter as a stray with a serious issue with his pee-pee (paraphimosis). The shelter’s vet did emergency surgery, then called us to rescue him. Unfortunately, the first surgery was unsuccessful (scar tissue closure causing the inability to urinate) so our vet had to go in do another surgery. So far, it is all good, however, he may need another procedure as he gets bigger (if he gets bigger). Given his mix with Chihuahua, he may remain a medium-size dog.

Otherwise, Roth is a sweet, happy-go-lucky puppy that is people and dog friendly. He walks on a leash. He will need some training on jumping on people, and a few other puppy manners.

Roth needs a home with another playful dog(s), probably close to his size or larger. Potential adopters must own their home with a good size fenced-in backyard.

Please note that we don’t adopt any of our dogs out to homes with children under the age of 13.

Rupert came to us from the Sacramento County with an injured rear leg (probably from being hit by a car). X-rays indicated that his left rear ankle had been shattered. There were 2 options: amputation of the leg or an expensive arthrodesis surgery. We were fortunate to find a vet that was willing to offer us a discount on the repair surgery so that we could save his leg.

Rupert is doing well, occasionally favoring the injured leg, but using it most of the time. He isn’t in pain, but will most assuredly develop arthritis that may need some pain control in the future.

He is little skittish at times, but once he is comfortable, he is mostly a very outgoing, friendly, playful, affectionate young dog. He would do well in a home with another young playful dog.

Please note that we don’t adopt any of our dogs out to homes with children under the age of 13.

Mara was brought into a local by someone who found her. During her evaluation by shelter staff to access her suitability for adoption to the general public, they observed some high-value resource guarding with other dogs and people. She was also difficult to handle during her vet check. This is very typical of dogs that are fearful/stressed in a scary shelter environment. Because of these observations she was deemed “unadoptable” and could only be given to a rescue group experienced with behavioral issues.

When we got her to our adoption center, she bonded very quickly with the volunteers, allowing them to handle her, give her affection and attention. In her foster home with a couple of other dogs, she does some lap guarding. The dogs in the home are all fed separately and the humans don’t typically bother the dogs while they are eating.

There are quick, easy and effective methods to stop lap guarding (as well as high value guarding). Mara responds well to correction. She will need an experienced adopter that can effectively manage these issues. With a little time and patience, Mara could live with other dogs her size that don’t respond negatively to her guarding behavior. Otherwise, she likes people, likes attention, good on a leash, appears to be housebroken (but not too sure about using the doggie door in her foster home, yet).

Please note that we don’t adopt any of our dogs out to homes with children under the age of 13.

Cheerio came to the Sacramento County Shelter underweight and with an embedded foxtail in her neck. It was removed surgically, but post-op they had trouble stopping the bleeding. She tested negative for any blood clotting disorder - perhaps the surgery nicked an artery? Eventually, the bleeding stopped, but it left her anemic. The shelter needed a rescue group that specializes in medical cases to continue addressing her veterinary needs. Over time in foster care, her anemia improved and she gained her weight back.

She is a very friendly, sweet dog. She likes attention and affection from her foster parents and volunteers. She likes roughhousing with the younger, larger dogs in her foster home. She doesn’t like being confined or kept away from the activities of the home. Crate training would be pretty difficult - lots of barking. Apartment living may not be the best option for her. We have no experience with her as an only dog. We would recommend that she go to a home with other playful, friendly dogs.

Please note that we don’t adopt any of our dogs out to homes with children under the age of 13.

Brie came to us from the Sacramento County shelter with a fractured front leg. It was assumed that she may have been hit by a car, but the surgeon who repaired the fracture thought is more likely from being dropped, stepped on or maybe jumping from a high place). We got the leg fixed (and tried our best to keep her calm and confined during his recovery - an impossible task for a terrier). She should be as good as new, but as with any fracture, arthritis will develop over time.

She is very friendly, dog that demands lots of attention from her humans. Her dog-on-dog skills are rather poor, but we are working on that. All of her dog issues happen when we introduce new dogs into her area, she is initially pretty aggressive in an overly-stimulated way. Stern correction leads to her settling down and then interacting with the new dogs in an appropriate manner, and even eventually playing, if the other dog is game. Once the initial introduction is complete, there have been no issues with those other dogs, so far.

Should she be the only dog or go with another dog(s)? She has lots of energy and wants lots of attention. Having another dog that she can eventually bond with, might take the pressure off of her human family to provide her with all the attention she craves, especially if she is to be left alone during the day.

Luna was surrendered to the Hayward Shelter by her previous owners. Here is what her current foster home says about her:

Ms Luna Skye is a blond and tan blue-eyed beauty. If you still believe in love at first sight, Ms Lulu (as she prefers to be called) could be that special someone you need in your life! She’d be equally excited cuddling up with you on the couch for a Netflix marathon, as she would be doing Saturday morning hike and brunch, as long as she is hanging with her favorite person.

Ms Lulu may be petite for her kind, but she definitely has a big personality to make up for it. This sassy girl will not hesitate to provide direct feedback if you’re not making your daily head-scratch quota. In return for your love, she will ensure that you’re never short of hugs and cuddles, and your backyard will always be well-secured from squirrels.

Like any sophisticated girl, she can be a little picky about what she eats, but she’ll put up with everyday kibble if you throw in some chicken/turkey/beef (a little extra something for your special girl). Ms Lulu is toilet-trained, but is still working on her leash skills. She also loves sunbathing, whether outdoors in the backyard, or indoors by the window. Ms Lulu could be your one and only soul mate, but she’ll also do well with equally chill pups who are happy to just co-exist.

“Find a girl that looks at you like that…” they say. Ms Lulu is looking for her special someone - can you even resist those soft blue eyes?

Please note that we don’t adopt any of our dogs out to homes with children under the age of 13.

Petunia was found as a stray and turned into the local shelter. The shelter spayed her and performed nasal surgery to assist with breathing. But then she was scheduled to be euthanized (for reasons that just aren’t clear to us). We pulled her the day before her euthanasia date. English bulldogs in general have LOTS of medical issues. She was overweight and has some spinal issues (spondylosis deformans). Due to her spinal condition, she has had some minor urinary incontinence issues. She is very much house trained (peeing and pooping outside or in designated inside locations), but when we first got her, there were a couple incidents of “bed wetting” caused when she laid in a certain position. Our vet started her on a medication called Proin and she has lost some weight. We haven’t seen any bed wetting occurrences since. While in our care, she developed a corneal abrasion in one of her eyes, caused by a lower, in-turned eyelid. Entropion eyelid surgery was done by our vet and her eye is much better. In addition to Proin, she is also on Galliprant and Cosequin supplement.

Petunia LOVES attention from people, any and all people. With other dogs we would have to say that she is “dog selective.” She is surrounded by other dogs all the time and is fine with those dogs. She ignores them with the exception of a French bulldog named Francine. They hang out and occasionally play together. However, when we bring new dogs into the adoption area (which are usually small dogs) she will go after them. She is also very reactive to dogs when she goes to the vet’s office. In the right setting, with an EXPERIENCED English Bulldog owner and slow introductions, she could possibly live with another dog - maybe another bulldog who is friendly.

Please note that we don’t adopt any of our dogs out to homes with children under the age of 13.

Stella was surrendered to the Oakland SPCA as a 3 month old puppy with her 3 litter mates. She was the runt of the litter and suffered from panosteitis (a condition affecting large breed puppies, known also as “growing pains”). Her littler mates were either adopted or pulled by other rescue groups. Eventually, Stella was adopted out multiple times and returned (for nothing that she actually did - the shelter just didn’t do a good job of screening potential applicants). She became very restless and stressed out basically growing up in shelter kennel. The shelter decided to euthanize her. We were contacted by someone who wanted to save her.

Given her mix of German Shepherd and Cone Corso, and being bounced around to multiple homes and shelter before ever reaching the age of 1 years old. she has some challenges - some insecurities, leash reactivity, protectiveness, etc. She will need an adopter experienced with these behaviors. She is great with other dogs, easily trainable and is very loyal to her family.

Please note that we don’t adopt any of our dogs out to homes with children under the age of 13.

Zaza came to the shelter as a stray limping from probably being hit by a car. There was a minor hip fracture that would heal on its own with cage rest and pain meds. There will probably be some future arthritis or less probable: FHO surgery. She had a microchip showing that there have been multiple owners in her short life.

Zaza is good with other dogs, cats, people, kids, etc. She likes going on adventures. Her foster mom is working on recall.

Allie was found as a stray in the Sacramento area. While in the shelter she displayed some intermittent lameness on various limbs. Our vet diagnosed her with immune mediated polyarthritis (IMPA), which is the canine version of rheumatoid arthritis in humans. Similar to humans, Allie will be prone to periodic “flare-ups” which will need to be treated with anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs for mild flare-ups or corticosteroids for more intensive episodes).

Given her mix of German Shepherd and Cone Corso, she will need an adopter experienced with leash/barrier reactivity and protectiveness . She is great with other dogs - loves to play, easily trainable and is very loyal and loving with her family.

Please note that we don’t adopt any of our dogs out to homes with children under the age of 13.

Nakia came to the Hayward Shelter as a stray. She was microchipped, but attempts to reach her owner failed. Her microchip history showed that she was adopted out from the Oakland Shelter a couple years prior. After being at the shelter and in foster care for nearly a year, her time had run out, so we pulled her into our rescue.

For a senior dog, she is in surprisingly good health. She is friendly, low energy, good-natured. She is “dog-selective” and would likely do better as the only dog in the home (although her foster family has friends with a small dog that Nakia got along with).

Please note that we don’t adopt any of our dogs out to homes with children under the age of 13.
