GOOOOOOAAAAAAAAL!Meet the Fifa superstars litter! These Malinois Catahoula mix pups came to the Shelter as a part of an accidental litter. They have previously lived primarily outdoors but are social, soft and ready to learn to be their adopter’s sidekick. Potty training, age appropriate socialization, and leash walking are all on the list of to-do’s for the next adopter. A home with other animals may be a fit with a slow, thoughtful introduction. Any resident dogs should meet at the Shelter prior to adoption. These athletes are ready for pre-adoption. Come meet them, fall in love and take them home after their spay/neuter surgeries. The Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter Foundation is now offering “Pawsitivity Bucks” with every dog adoption. This $200 training voucher is a way for newly adopted canines and their guardians to connect with local positive reinforcement based behavior consultants and get their relationship started off on the right paw!Please note: Our Santa Cruz location’s Shelter hours are 11-6pm, 7 days a week! Although clients can walk through and see any animals in their kennels during open hours, we end “meet and greets” (aka meeting an animal out of the kennel) at 4:30pm every day. If you’d like to meet an animal out of the kennel, please arrive before 4:00pm to allow for time to discuss individual animals and meet them
