DOB July 5, 2024 BREED Rhodesian Ridgeback Mix Meet the Ridgeback Litter:
It’s hard to imagine these 8 week old angels were abandoned all alone in a remote dirt lot. A good Samaritan found them and a kind rescue pilot flew them to Dogma where they are thriving in a foster home. With tons of energy, they love to race and leap and tussle and make you laugh. They are confident, social, eager to explore the world, and have been comfortable meeting three other resident dogs, plus horses and goats. RR lovers will like that all four brothers have nice ridges on their handsome backs! All four are brave and super smart, so if you’re committed to giving them the training, exercise and guidance this powerful, big (85-120 pound) breed needs, they would love to meet you! |

DOB August 10, 2023 BREED Shepherd/Terrier Mix Meet Agnes: Agnes is a one year old, 20 lb mystery mix. She looks like a miniature police dog according to the kids in her foster home. While she is being fostered with kids, she would do better in an adult/ teenager only home. She was initially very nervous around kids and while she is getting more comfortable with them, she would appreciate a quieter environment. She is learning to trust kids by being fed and walked by them so her pictures will show her with kids, however this is an experienced foster home with kids that have been around a lot of different dogs. We want Agnes to be exposed to nice kids even if they aren't in her home.
Agnes came into the program very underweight and scruffy, nursing a litter of puppies. Since weaning her pups she has blossomed and started to put weight on. After a few baths (which she tolerated but didn't enjoy) she is starting to shine. Now that she is coming out of her shell she is showing a silly more playful side. She enjoys both dogs in the foster home and plays a lot with the smaller female, Willow. She is a bit dominant and will do well with a dog that doesn't mind being submissive to a pushy lady. Someone trained this girl at some point. She knows sit, shake and down and walks beautifully on the leash. She is nervous passing strangers on walks but every day she improves and feels more confident. Agnes rides quietly in the car and sleeps all night in a crate. She likes her crate and because she lacks confidence, she enjoys her own quiet space. She appears to be potty trained and hasn't had any accidents inside. Agnes will do well in a home where she can continue to learn and grow. She is an incredibly smart dog that needs exposure to all the good things in life. |

DOB February 11, 2024 BREED Min Pin Mix Meet Willow: Willow is an approximately 8 lb min pin mix that is about six months old. She was very timid when she first arrived in her foster home but she is now a happy little lady that greets everyone in the family with enthusiasm. She is being fostered with young kids and is very gentle. She loves to snuggle in the kids bed for story time. She sleeps quietly in a crate at night and does well hanging in her crate if left home alone. Willow loves other dogs and has done well with several different foster dog siblings. Because she is completely indifferent to the large rabbit that roams around the house, she will likely be good with a cat. She loves to play and chase toys and really loves to snuggle. Willow is still nervous when visitors come to the house but she is getting more and more acclimated to that as she spends time in her busy foster home. She is a good girl for baths and nail trims and putting on outfits. Willow is good about going potty outside and is very close to being potty trained. This dog has really blossomed in her time in her foster home and she will continue to grow into a well adjusted family member.

DOB February 11, 2022 BREED German Shorthaired Pointer Meet Emmy: Emmy is a beautiful German Shorthaired Pointer that was found as a malnourished stray in the Central Valley. Emmy is estimated to be one year old. She has only been in foster care for about a week and she's settled in nicely. She has been enthusiastic, energetic and very friendly. She gets along with the 2 resident dogs although she isn’t always sure how to play with them. She is a bit insecure and is always seeking attention but with steady love and consistency, she will gain confidence and reach her full potential. So far, she has not had any accidents in the house and sleeps quietly in her crate at night. It appears that may she may have had some training in the past, but definitely needs refreshing. She is a loving, playful dog and will be a great addition to any family.

DOB April 1, 2024 BREED Heeler/Jack Russell Mix Meet Cowboy: After spending his infancy in a shelter, Cowboy took some time to gain confidence once he arrived at Dogma with his foster family. Cowboy exhibited some food guarding, defensiveness and overall bad manners. Those behaviors lasted about a week. Now that he has had another week under his belt in his foster home, he is a totally different puppy.
Cowboy has had lots of training and love, which has allowed him to flourish. He knows "sit", is doing well to even sit and wait before going to his food. He does wonderful in his crate, going straight in and lying down when going to bed at night. Cowboy had no trouble meeting his cattle dog foster, immediately wanting to play. At first, he didn't have good doggy manners, jumping on her face, etc. He quickly became responsive to her corrections, but it wouldn't last long. In no time, he would be back for more! Cowboy has a lot of energy! His favorite game to play is chase with his foster sister. They fly through the yard at such speed that one has to stand next to a wall or tree to avoid getting bowled over. Cowboy loves to play football, bringing the ball back to be kicked over and over. Cowboy does well on his own while his foster works, entertaining himself and not getting into too much trouble. He is left outside on the deck during this time, since he's not 100% potty trained. Since he spent so much time at a shelter and had to go potty in his kennel, he needs extra support to understand where to go potty and that it's different than where he rests, plays, etc. Cowboy is gaining confidence and will make a great dog for an active household! He's fun and friendly. |

This little munchkin is tiny, weighing at just over 3 lbs, even at maturity he probably won't surpass 10-12 lbs. He is a playful, bouncy little pup that is guaranteed to make you smile. Denver is the first to venture into the great unknown. He is a brave little leader and absolutely loves exploring but his absolute favorite pastime is getting belly rubs. He is sharing a foster home with two resident dogs. Denver sleeps in a crate at night and is learning how to potty outside and doing pretty well!

He's a small dog who wants nothing more than to hang out during the day. He would do great in a more quiet home with a slow pace, but he doesn't act like an old man. He still loves going on walks and laying in the sun. He's independent, but likes to be around people. He wants attention when he wants it, but not as much attention as young children would provide.

DOB July 17, 2022 BREED Terrier Mix Meet Remy: Remy is a gentle soul with a heart full of gold. This adorable 12 pound 2 year old pup may take a little time to warm up, but underneath that cautious exterior is a bundle of love waiting to shine through.
Once acclimated to his new environment, Remy will be a devoted companion who loves nothing more than being with you. He is your perfect shadow, who thrives on being close to his favorite people. This lovable pup will stick by your side through thick and thin, always ready for a cuddle or a walk. His affectionate nature also means he’s always up for snuggling on the couch or following you around the house. Remy is being fostered in a house with 3 adults and a dog. There are no cats in the home and so we are unsure how he’ll be with cats. He’s working on sitting, being patient, and walking on a leash. Remy loves going on fun adventures but will need some extra care while in the car because he sometimes gets car sick. |

DOB May 30, 2023 BREED Terrier Mix Meet Phil: Phil, or "Philly-Cheese" as he is affectionately known, came to us from the streets of the Central Valley. When he first arrived at his foster home, it was clear that he had never been cared for and loved, but after one short week he blossomed into an energetic playful loving pup whose favorite time of the day is breakfast and dinner!

He loves all humans, whether familiar or strangers and hasn't shown any aggression at all. Phil is potty trained, sleeps quietly in a crate all night and walks on a leash but could use more experience as he probably hasn't had opportunities in his past life.

DOB April 29, 2022 BREED Chihuahua Mix Meet Brennan: When Brennan arrived to Dogma back in April, he weighed 4 pounds. With lots of love and delicious food, he's perfectly healthy weight and his hair is growing back. He has been neutered, acclimated to a loving home and is ready to find his forever family.
Brennan is such a cool little dude! He didn't even know what toys were when he arrived. He now loves his stuffed animals and runs and gets a toy to bring it to you to play with him. When Brennan is really relaxed, he gets a lopsided grin and eventually, his tongue sticks out when he's simply exhausted. He likes to get all the way under his blanket when he sleeps. He's potty trained and sleeps soundly at night. Brennan can be nervous at adoption events, so it would work out great to meet him at a private meeting. Email an application to [email protected] and someone can follow up with you to set up a private meet & greet. |

DOB 2012 BREED Terrier Mix Meet Jack: Jack came to us very underweight, with a double ear infection and a major yeast infection on many parts of his body. He is being treated with medication, plenty of food, and lots of love, and is getting better every day. He is around 12 years old, but has lots of energy and curiosity, and is looking for his new best friend. Jack would like nothing more than to hang out with you all day and do whatever you are doing. He also loves to fluff himself all up under a blanket for a snooze. He’s a friendly boy, great with other dogs and people. He is a very sweet boy that is looking for his forever companion to spend his days with. His soulful eyes will melt your heart. While Jack has not been a foster home with cats, we imagine he wouldn't mind them being around, since he's much more focused on napping with his human nearby and less concerned with chasing anything.

Meet Rue: Rue is a 4 year old female Anatolian Shepherd mix, about 90 pounds, that is in need of re-homing due to no fault of her own. She is spayed and up to date with all vaccines and care.
Rue was originally picked up as a stray and taken to a high-kill shelter in Texas at about a year old. She was rescued from there by a professional dog training school that quickly spotted her potential. They easily leash, potty and crate trained her. Due to her fast learning, she was selected for agility training within the rescue, which wasn’t really her style. She’s more of a lounger, and prefers a good treat and a daily walk and chilling next to her family, although a hike or car ride is always welcomed. She is extremely well-behaved both indoors and out. She knows several playful commands and is very treat motivated and a quick learner. Her good nature melts everyone’s hearts. She loves kids and other dogs, and is a very relaxed and gentle soul who loves the outdoors. She doesn’t have much cat experience, but she interacts with most animals with a gentle curiosity, including a neighbor’s cat, goats and horses. The one exception is turkey vultures. Rue does not like them. Rue’s adoptive family has loved her dearly for the past 3 years, but due to an unfortunate family situation, Rue needs a new home. Please contact her owners directly via email for more information and details about adopting Rue at [email protected] “This is a Dogma Courtesy Post on behalf of a local Sonoma County resident. Dogma is not in possession of this dog and we are not performing the adoption. We are just giving this dog additional exposure to facilitate her search for a new home.” |
