Meet Baby Girl! Big dog, big heart, big fan of walks with her favorite people. Baby Girl is a 3-year-old, 82-pound bundle of sunshine with a gorgeous yellow coat and a personality to match. This sweet Labrador/Golden Retriever, Shepherd mix is the kind of best buddy who wants to be your loyal sidekick through life’s great adventures, even if it’s just snacks on the couch. She does get adorably excited when she realizes a walk is about to happen (who among us doesn’t?), but once she’s out and about she walks nicely on leash and settles into a mellow groove. Baby Girl loves to play, enjoys being with her people, and has that classic big-hearted loyalty that makes her the ultimate companion. She’s already spayed, ready for her next chapter, and mostly just waiting for someone to say, “You’re coming home with me.” If you’re looking for a sweet, playful, devoted dog who will happily fill the large-dog-sized space in your heart (and possibly your couch), Baby Girl might be your girl.
Meet the charming Woody! This young adult heartthrob is a mix of Bully and Cattle Dog, fully vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. Now all this special pup is missing is a loving, active human companion with the time and patience for a bubbly, sweet pooch with a twist - Woody is deaf. To keep Woody safe, a securely fenced yard is a must-have accessory. This clever pup responds well to hand signals and is a pro at walking on a leash.. Now is a great time to bring this happy-go-lucky pooch into your life for the St. Patrick's Day holiday!
Maya, a brave and loving mama, has spent the last few months doing the most important job of all—raising her beautiful litter of puppies and ensuring each one found a safe, happy home. Now, it’s her turn to be spoiled with love!
This stunning tri-color beauty is about 1 year old, weighs around 45 pounds, and is believed to be a German Shepherd mix. Maya is full of life—playful, affectionate, and always ready for an adventure. She’s incredibly people-friendly and thrives on attention and companionship.
Maya would do best in an active home where she can get plenty of exercise, love, and maybe even a soft couch to finally call her own. After giving so much of herself to her pups, she deserves nothing less than a forever family who will love her as fiercely as she loves them.
Are you ready to give Maya the life she’s waited so patiently for?

Meet River, left scared and alone after being dumped on Mountain View Road in Gualala. The story about this abandoned Siberian Husky mix will tug at the heartstrings of any animal lover. Thankfully he is safe and now has a chance at a new life all thanks to our compassionate Menodnoma community dedicated to making a difference. River is now 18-months-old and in search of a patient and caring family who can understand his past traumas and provide him with the love and security he deserves in a forever home.
Her shiny eyes and big smile let you know how excited she is to meet new people. Her vet described Camilla as a “perfect specimen” with “well defined muscles and a rich chocolate coat.” We just think she is a great girl who loves attention and playing in water. Camilla will do best as the only pet in the household. A loving forever home with a fenced yard is the perfect setting for this 7 year old girl. If you have room in your home and heart to give Camilla a second chance at a new life full of love and attention, she will return it to you two-fold.

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.
