Baghera "Is It Friday Yet?"

HSSV's Baghera "Is it Friday yet?
Hi, my name is Baghera. I am adorable, loving, and very loyal. I am used to being a part of the family and thrive on attention. I am active, but also have a very snuggly side and love to cuddle! I love to play and rough-house with other small, active dogs and I even get along with cats! I used to live in a family with teenagers and I adored them too! I am currently living in a multi-dog foster home and my ideal home would include a canine brother or sister! I am the perfect family dog- I am already house trained, ride well in the car, walk nicely on leash, and can hike for miles! To meet me, please contact Jeri @ (408) 262-2133 ext. 185 or Casaundra @ ext. 183.

Baghera is in Foster Home.

Moby "I Don't Get It Why Is Taking So Long..."

HSSV's Moby
Moby is in the shelter more than four months so far. I don't get it why is taking so long. He is the sweetest creature you could imagine.

Check it out video made by wonderful HSSV's Volunteers. It is all love!



"Moby is the sweetest and most loveable guy in the shelter. A lot of people meet him and then change their minds because he has the possibility of seizures of unknown origin. I have two dogs with seizure disorders and I would not trade them for the word. One is on medication - inexpensive and easy to give and the other does well without medication. Share Moby's picture and story and help him find someone who will see past his medical concerns!!" by Beth Ward

Tristan It’s Time For Me to Find Someone Who...

HSSV's Tristan "Don’t get me wrong, everyone here is super nice but an energetic dude like me gets really bored"
Hi, I’m Tristan. Do you like to run? I love to run. Let’s do a 5K. It’ll be fantastic. How do you feel about hiking? I love to hike. We could hit the hills and crank out a couple of miles, maybe make hot dogs over the fire – I love hot dogs.

Don’t get me wrong, everyone here is super nice but an energetic dude like me gets really bored.

It’s time for me to find someone who can keep up with me. Let’s try agility or flyball or rally-o or all of it! It’s summer, we should be out doing things. Lots of things. I’m a JackRussell Terrier mix so even though I’m wearing a small dog suit, there’s a whole lots of energy and attitude here.
HSSV's Tristan "Things You Didn’t Know About Jack Russell Terriers"
Things You Didn’t Know About Jack Russell Terriers 

Jack Russell, who developed the breed, was a priest.

They were originally bred to hunt small vermin, terrier means go to ground.

Some of the shorter Jack Russell Terriers actually have a form of dwarfism.

The breed was created in the 1800’s but not recognized bythe AKC until 1997.

Looking for a couch potato? Keep looking! Jack Russell's are independent, athletic and require a lot amount of exercise. They excel in dog sports and make great jogging partners.
