Bear

Get ready to emBARK on a journey filled with love, laughter and canine companionship. Meet Bear, an adorable and lively 5-month-old Australian Shepherd/Border Collie mixed breed. These furry friends are guaranteed to steal your heart with wagging tails, playful personalities and even know a few tricks like sitting, laying down and shaking hands! Unfortunately, the shelter is full up and we can't take them in right now. So if you or someone you know is on the lookout for some four-legged fun and unconditional love, contact Tom Hanson at (707) 703-2388 regarding adoption. Tom will help you take the first step toward welcoming these sweet pups into your home. Please consider giving these pups the happily-ever-after they deserve! Help them find their fur-ever homes.

Pete & Arlo

Adorable Catahoula/Pit mix puppies were recently abandoned at a the Redwood Coast Humane Society and are in need of a new home or foster care to provide them with the love they deserve. Despite the sudden and unfortunate circumstances surrounding their arrival, the puppies have quickly captured the hearts of the shelter volunteers with their playful antics and affectionate nature.

Riley

Riley, a shepherd mix, came to us as a stray. We hoped to find his owner after a local community member found him on Tan Bark Road. With no response to our outreach, Riley is now fully vaccinated, neutered, microchipped and ready for somebody new to share his life with. He is about 7 yrs. old., under 40lbs, knows basic commands, house-broken and is a sweet, loving and playful boy. Looking for a new leash in sweet Riley’s life—and hopefully a new family to share it with! He deserves a loving and safe forever home. Do you have room to help Riley go from street puddles to sweet cuddles?

Camella

Camella is a happy and exuberant Chocolate Lab/Staffordshire mix. Her shiny eyes and big smile let you know how excited she is to meet new people. Her vet described Camella as a “perfect specimen” with “well defined muscles and a rich chocolate coat.” We just think she is a great girl. Camella will do best as the only pet in the household. A loving forever home with a fenced yard is the perfect setting for this girl. If you have room in your home and heart to give Camella a second chance at a new life full of love and attention, she will return it to you two-fold.

Baby Girl, Phat Boy, Phantom, Sandy, Thunder, Missy

One year old lLabrador/Shepherd mixes ready to become part of your active family. They have been fully vaccinated, spayed or neutered and microchipped by The Redwood Coast Humane Society. They are in need of socialization and leash training, but not an aggressive bone in their bodies. Thunder (male) is the only black remaining, but several male and female blondes are available.

Misty and Ruby

Meet these two beauties "Misty" (grey) and "Ruby" (red) adult (6-7 yr. old) German Shepherds who have recently come under the care of The Redwood Coast Humane Society,” according to Lisa Dundee. "They are now fully up to date on their vaccinations micro-chipped and spayed. If you have a large fenced yard, activity in your step, and love in your heart, Misty and Ruby can fulfill all.

Kemo

Meet Ke-mo sah-bee “Kemo.” Kemo is a 3 year old American Bully mix. Kemo loves walks and playtime with his people. His big, happy Bully breed smile brings sunshine to any day. This sweet boy takes a minute to get to know but when you do, he is full of love, fun and adventure. Kemo would love to be the only dog in a household with a secure fenced yard to allow him room for his playful personality. Give this boy love and attention and he will be a loyal furever companion.

Star and O’Hana

Calling all dog lovers! This sweet mother-daughter duo, Star and Hannah, are looking for a new forever home — somewhere with a large, fenced-in yard and a cozy berth indoors for nighttime. “These ladies are middle-aged, well-behaved, and a lot of fun! Imagine the adventures you would have!

Below are questions which you should ask yourself before adopting a pet. RCHS may also ask you about your willingness and ability to bring a new pet into your home.

Do you have adequate time to spend with and care for a cat or dog?
Is your home adequately secure and can a cat or dog be prevented from escaping?
Do you understand housetraining and understand that the cat/dog may need to be re-taught to not go to the bathroom in the house?
Can you make the financial commitment to care for the cat or dog, food, vaccinations, routine veterinary care? The cost of owning a pet is about $1,000/year.
Will the cat or dog be allowed in the house, or only the garage or only outdoors?
If the cat or dog develops issues, how will you handle these issues?
Would you be willing to allow a home inspection? If renting, does the landlord allow pets? Can the number for the landlord be provided? Is there a size restriction or number of pets restriction?
Are you planning any major changes in the near future that might affect the status of the pet? Expecting a baby? Planning on moving? Having major surgery? Going back to school? Getting married? Going on a long vacation?
Does anyone in your family have pet allergies?
Are all family members on-board with the adoption decision? Have you been considering adopting a pet for a while? Have you given pet adoption a lot of thought?
If you become unable to care for your dog/cat, do you have someone designated to take care of the animal?

Once it has been agreed that you and a pet are a good fit, you will be asked to fill out an Adoption Agreement form and pay a $75 fee for a cat/kitten or a $100 fee for a dog/puppy which includes spaying or neutering of your pet. A condition for adoption is that the cat or dog you are adopting must be spayed or neutered. If the pet is too young at the time of adoption, you will be asked to leave a deposit with RCHS for the Spay or Neuter procedures ($25 cat/kitten or dog/puppy). This will be returned to you once your pet has been spayed or neutered.
