Oliver & Ash Interns: fostering futures, one wag at a time.

This sweet girl is around 2 years old and was found on the streets of Southern California. Now in the Sierra Foothills, she is proving to be a well-rounded, dog-friendly adventure partner! Housebroken, crated trained, and an on-leash superstar!

Fable stole our hearts from the beginning and became best friends with our dog Charlie. She struggled with fear and reactivity - but with the help of our pack and lots of exposure to new things, she made great strides. A pint-sized pittie at 40 lbs, she now lives her best life in Santa Cruz, CA!

Penelope found a safe home with use after being used for breeding and then abandoned. Her skin was in terrible condition and we enjoyed helping her look and feel her best. Now she thrives on a hobby farm with two kids and doggie siblings!

Theo was the first deaf dog we fostered - and what a character he was! Entirely goofy with an adorable head tilt, Theo was loved by every one he met. Found abandoned in a dumpster and now thriving in a home that goes on many adventures and got him a pittie sister!

When Betty’s original foster could no longer care for her, our family stepped in to offer her a home! This young pup quickly had an application so we knew we wouldn’t have her for long. But her sweet and loving personality made it terribly hard to say goodbye. She’s loving her new home and running zoomies around the pool!

Billie stole my heart from the beginning, but she was an incredibly shy dog with a lot of trust issues. We took it slowly with her and let her experience safety, comfort, and routine. As she bonded with me quickly, I was devastated to say goodbye. But preparing dogs for their forever home in our family’s goal, and in spite of the grief, we get to open our hearts to other dogs that need help.

Our very first foster, and a bit by accident. Rosie was struggling at our local shelter, Sammie’s Friends, and a kind volunteer would take her home on the weekends. We were asked if we could cover a weekend of watching her, and we couldn’t send her back to shelter life! She was adopted by a wonderful family and gets to go camping and on so many adventures. We also get to dog-sit her when her family is on vacation and we love having her around!
