In Memory of Juaquin: Juaquin was a 3-year old spayed female blue merle ASCA Australian Shepherd. Her owner died when she lived on a houseboat in Sausalito and was used to going to the dog park every morning and hanging out on the docks the rest of the day. Juaquin was a vocal herder and very much a one-person dog that has not been around children much, though when exposed she tends to give them wide berth. She was cautious around strangers but Juaquin was very affectionate once she knew you.

EUTHANIZED/was surrendered by owner. Her breeder* had 14 dogs and could not possibly make room to take Juaquin back in. Thus, our mantra: Don't Buy! Don't Breed! Rescue!!

***We believe there is no such thing as a "responsible breeder," and that those two words are mutually exclusive of each other. For instance, we wonder how many of the 14 dogs referred to above will eventually go the way of Juaquin. The breeder will never know, the money's in the bank, another notch in litter tally, don't look back. Breeding is not about the love of animals -- it's a skewed mix of commerce, ego, entitlement, and inhabiting the planet with no real sense of community or responsibility. This might help: How about for every puppy a breeder sells, he or she donates a day at a shelter on kill-day to get up close and personal with euthanasia. Maybe watching a dog die at the end of a needle will be enough of a spiritual awakening to give them some heart.

These dogs are in immediate danger of being euthanized. They need your help now!

Below are several shelter Web site addresses which are good resources for finding that perfect pet. An animal in a shelter is considered to be in a high-risk situation because of space limitations. The less room there is in a shelter, the higher the probability of euthanasia. Many of the dogs in our care are "11th-hour rescues" from death row in kill facilities. For this reason, we encourage you to consider shelter adoptions first, because we can't possibly pull all the dogs that need to be saved. The animals in our care are, at least, safe, while animals in shelters face a less hopeful fate.
