Hi, I’m Rusty!

You might think I’m a little rusty around the edge, but really, I’m just being polished for the perfect family. I’m about 2½ years old, around 70 pounds, and full of love, loyalty, and a little goofy charm.

I absolutely thrive outdoors, long walks, new smells, sunshine, and fresh air are my favorite things. I walk beautifully on leash and stay right by your side, always tuned in and connected to my person.

I’m a proud graduate of the Paws on the Block program through Foothill Dog Rescue. This special program pairs dogs like me with dedicated incarcerated handlers at Folsom State Prison, who help us build confidence, learn structure, and practice real-life skills so we’re ready to succeed in a home. Because of this experience, I’ve grown into a focused, thoughtful, and well-prepared companion.

At home, I’m calm, affectionate, and easy to live with. I love cozy blankets, a good chew toy, and soaking up gentle pets and ear scratches. I would truly thrive in a home with women, where I feel especially safe, connected, and at ease. I’d also do best as the only dog in the home so I can soak up all the love and continue to succeed.

I’m the kind of dog who becomes part of your everyday life, loyal, emotionally in tune, and always by your side. I’ve come so far, and now I’m just looking for someone who will see me, love me, and choose me for forever.

I can’t wait to meet my person soon!

Name: Salsa
Breed Mix: Terrier
Age: 2 ½ Years
Weight: 12 Pounds
Dogs? Not in the home, management outside home
Cats? No, has not lived with cats, but typical Terrier
Kids? Over 13 Years
House-trained? Yes
Crate Trained? Yes
Leash Trained? Yes
Salsa is a white, male Terrier mix with a lot of personality. He is about 2 ½ years old with medium energy, but of course would enjoy a daily walk to get the wiggles out. Salsa will be best with no other dogs in the home due to some resource guarding experienced in foster homes. He has been at a board and train for a few months and has done extremely well with proper management. Also is house trained and does well in the crate. We just think the best home for success will be with no other dogs and no young kids. Otherwise he can be a very sweet companion for someone without a lot of action in the home. We are told he is a typical terrier mix and we will provide proper management advice. Note: He is a shedder!

If interested, we recommend submitting an adoption application at: www.foothilldogrescue.org

This dog will be available for private meet and greets with prior arrangements.

Our address is:

Hi, I’m Winter!

I’m about 9 months old and part of a really special program called Paws on the Block. I actually joined the program right before Christmas, and it’s been the best gift I could’ve asked for. Paws on the Block is a collaborative foster dog program between Foothill Dog Rescue and Folsom State Prison. Dogs like me are placed with a specific group of incarcerated men, who we call our handlers, who train us, socialize us, and care for us every single day until we find our forever homes. They have all helped me build confidence, learn good manners, and feel so loved. In return, the program gives them a sense of purpose, and helps build patience, empathy, and connection, it’s pretty special for all of us.

I’m a total people girl, I love everyone I meet and will happily soak up all the attention you’re willing to give. I’m also super dog-friendly and known around here as a bit of a “mentor dog.” I’ve helped some of my newer friends like Logan and Willard learn the ropes (puppies am I right), and I’ve even helped Rusty build confidence and have positive, happy interactions with other dogs. Basically, I’m kind of a star student and a great teacher ; )

I’m very smart (maybe a little too smart sometimes), and I already know all my basic commands. I’m crate trained, love my toys, and I love being brushed, what can I say, I’m a girly girl at heart. I’m also used to walking on a sidekick leash (you can see me modeling it in my picture!), and I walk beautifully right by your side, usually sneaking little glances up at you because I just love being connected.

Now, I’ll be honest with you, I’m not really a morning dogl. I’ll get up to go potty, of course, but after that… I like to ease into my day. And yes, I do have opinions! I’ve been known to “talk back” a little when I’ve got something to say, but I think it just adds to my charm.

I would do best in a home without cats or chickens, but I would absolutely love a home with people (and maybe some dog friends!) who will keep me active, engaged, and loved.

My handlers wanted me to tell you this: “I look forward to being part of your family, and bringing you all many great forever memories.”

With so much love and a wagging tail,
Winter

Meet Alyeska
Spayed female
50ish lbs
Around 1 year old
Dogs: Yes
Cats: Indoor, yes
House trained: Yes
Crate trained: Yes

Hey hey hey everyone. It's Alyeska or as my mom calls me Aly here! Wanted to let everyone know how I'm doing and give you the most recent update on my life with my foster peeps!

Well, I'm happy to report that life is good. I am a 50ish pound Malinois mix and a youngster, maybe a year. I'm am completely house broken and haven't had a single accident in the house. And although it's not my favorite place, I much prefer the sofa, I will hang out in my crate at night and for all my meals! I love, and I mean love tennis balls and playing fetch. Chewing on pine cones, and really love to play in water; the pond, puddles, the hose, if it's water then I'm in! I also love every other dog I meet and just love to run and play with everyone, even the cats... which they don't seem to enjoy as much as me. But mom & dad have told me that I need to be nice and we've worked it out in the house and mostly outside, but sometimes I just want to give them a hug so bad that I might chase them a bit. But I have never tried to bite or eat them!!!

Some of the things that seems to really get mom a little exasperated is when I pull on my leash, but we've gotten so much better with that and I really just like to run along side her when we're on our walks! I'm learning that she's supposed to go through the door first, but I'm just so excited to go out and play that I forget sometimes. She calls me her triple expresso girl, i think because i have so much energy. I really need to get my burn on in the morning and luckily mom and me go on a 4.5 miles walk. After which I am much better behaved and open to learning some new stuff. Y'all will think this is funny, but mom is trying to teach me "The Art of Doing Nothing!" Yup, it's a thing. I'm learning to rewire and repurpose my energy and just relax, which is hard, cuz I like to go go go! Although my sisters and bro are really good at it.

Mom says that she thinks that if someone is willing to be as dedicated to training as I am, it will be a good fit. But until I met Mom and Dad, no-one really had any good expectations of me, so I didn't really know how I was supposed to behave. I heard her say that i've come a really long way and she and Dad see the improvements everyday.

Okay, i'm gonna let Mom say a couple things. Paws out peeps!

Mom here! Aly is a really sweet and amazing girl and has come a very long way in the 3 weeks that she's been with us. There is still room for improvement and we're confident that if you are willing to put some time regarding training and setting boundaries, Aly will blossom in your home. She is ALOT of dog! She's smart, strong, and very energetic. She's not the dog for you if you'll need to leave her alone while everyone is at work or school. She wants her people. She likes to help with every chore inside and out. She has never gone anywhere without us, so she's earned the freedom of being off leash on our property. And has a pretty good recall. So... if you are a busy body and like to walk, hike, work around your yard and have time for this girl, you'll love her. Please give her a chance, she's amazing and we are certainly going to miss her. ALOT!

26-Bachelor
Male
Border Collie/mix
Approx. 3 yrs. old
Approx. 50 lbs.
Crate Trained: Yes
House Trained: Yes, uses doggie door
Kids: Yes
Cats: Seems ok
Dogs: Yes


Bach is a 50-pound, fixed young boy who has been with me about 3 weeks. He has settled in with my dogs well, but he prefers to be with his human. Bach still needs assistance with directions to go outside alone or entering his crate. He will follow his human anywhere.
Bach will stay/sleep in his crate at night for about 8 hours, but he does move around a lot at night. We have trained him to use a doggy door, so he does enjoy going out to sit in the sun.
The previous foster parent had children, and Bach was a good with them and was great watch/protection dog.
Bach has met my cat but did not show any aggression.
We are currently working on behaviors and commands, will respond to sit, crate, dinner, off, and working with leash, training. He rides well in the car and although sweet and gentle, he needs basic training and consistency so better suited to someone who has owned dogs before. He is a people dog although he gets along great with other dogs, he does like being with his people and can have a bit of separation anxiety. He is such a cutie and a cuddler and is looking for his forever home!

17 mos.
13 lbs.
Dogs: Yes (see below)
Cats: Yes
Kids: 14+
Crate Trained: Yes
House Trained: Yes
Leash Trained: Yes
Energy level: High

Barley aka Charlie the Maltipoo, is a young 17 month old male and weighs about 13 pounds.
He is house trained, and we have him on a schedule, so he goes out very frequently.
He has some resource guarding issues pertaining to people and can occasionally bark or growl around the resident dog even if the resident dog is not adjacent to him or his foster family members. This can happen once or twice per day.
Most of the day he is calm or asleep in the home office while we work.
He is using a martingale collar to help with the pulling issue while he is on a leash on walks, but he loves to walk and requires multiple walks every day.
He still has some puppy behaviors like he is sometimes mouthy especially when he is excited.
He is trainable, reacts properly to gentle corrections and he needs someone who can dedicate time to helping him learn proper dog manners.
He is very young so he will need lots of exercise as well as concentrated training.

Name: 26 Budweiser, aka Buddy
Breed Mix: Terrier Mix
Age: Approximately 2
Weight: 30 lbs
Dogs: Yes
Cats: Unknown, but probably
Kids: Unknown, but probably
House-trained: Yes
Crate Trained: Not a big fan, but working on it
Leash Trained: Yes
Meet Budweiser aka Buddy — your future best friend and professional cuddle champion 🐾
Budweiser is an approximately 2-year-old terrier mix with a heart as big as his personality. This sweet, affectionate boy lives for snuggles and will happily curl up next to you after a day of fun. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who thinks personal space is overrated, this Bud’s for you!
He’s a happy-go-lucky pup who gets along great with all types/sizes of other dogs. He is low-medium energy, so may prefer another dog that matches his energy level, though he has done very well with our larger, very high energy dog. He can also be an only dog. On walks, he’s easygoing and polite on leash, making him a wonderful companion for neighborhood strolls or longer adventures. He enjoys playtime with toys, chewing on a good bone, and of course—quality cuddle time with his humans.
Budweiser is house-trained, using a dog door and also signaling if the dog door is closed. When left alone, he settles down calmly and can be left in the house to roam without any issues.
He would do well in a variety of homes, whether you’re a first-time dog owner or someone experienced. While he hasn’t spent much time around cats or kids yet, his gentle and loving nature suggests he could adapt well with proper introductions.
We are currently working on a few items, riding in the car and putting on the leash. He gets a bit anxious in the car and threw up once. However, on our last two one hour drives, he was much calmer and no nausea 👍 He is also a little reluctant to put on a leash, but is learning that the leash means fun and is improving, once on the leash he is wonderful.
Unfortunately, this sweet little man collided with the box scraper on a parked tractor while chasing/playing with his foster brother and cut one side of his face. Luckily, all is well and he is healing up quickly and will look like his adorable self again in no time.
At the end of the day, Budweiser’s favorite place is right by your side (or in your lap if you let him!). If you’re looking for the perfect size pup that is sweet, affectionate, and an all-around lovable companion, Budweiser is ready to bring joy, laughter, and lots of snuggles into your life.
Come meet him—you might just fall in love instantly, we certainly have 💛

26-Chase
Male
Boston Terrier
5 yrs. old
25 lbs.
Dogs: Yes, most dogs
Cats: Ok indoors, will chase outdoors.
Kids: Yes
House trained: yes

Chase is a 5-year-old Boston Terrier weighing approx. 25 lbs. He is a very friendly, high-energy dog. He is shy initially in new situations which is to say he will look to his human or companion dog for confidence in new and unexpected situations. Chase has lived with other dogs (and cats) since he was a small puppy. We expect that if Chase is an only dog he will look to his human for what to do in unexpected situations.
Chase loves to run and play tug-of-war with other dogs. He likes to play in small groups or his favorite friend. He loves to play with toys too! Basically, he likes to run around but will also be happy to chill in his bed or crate for a few hours too.
Chase has springs in his legs and will jump straight up like “Tigger” when excited. Chase can be shy at first with new people, or scared in new situations, but warms up quickly when assured by someone he knows and trusts. Mostly he will want to get in your lap and lick your face to show you how excited he is to see you.

Foothill Dog Rescue of the Sierras

Name: Mt. Fuji (Phoebe)
Breed: Doodle
Age: 4-5
Weight: 42 lbs
Dogs: yes, of all sizes, but does not like energetic dogs in her face
Cats: Untested but probably
Kids: she’s done great with kids of all ages, but she’s still bouncy so those stable on their feet are best.
House trained: Yes
Crate Trained: Yes
Leash Trained: Yes

This is Mt. Fuji (aka “Phoebe”) is a sweet, energetic girl bursting with love. So much so that when her favorite people arrive home she vertically launches her whole body straight up in the air just to let you know how excited she is to see you.
When she first came home with us, she was unfamiliar with a number of things. First the doggy door. No problem however and she mastered it right away. Likewise, she quickly adjusted to sleeping in the crate all night. She loves taking walks and while it is still a bit of a work in progress, she is doing well on the leash. When we come across other people and dogs she is not overly interested in them. Probably because she is so busy exploring all the smells along the way…even if we had been on that same route earlier in the day, it is still just as fun for her.
She likes being with people yet is also good at initiating her own playtime and happily amuses herself with whatever toys she can find in the doggy toy box. The one thing that she still needs to work on is her manners. She likes to jump and wrap her arms around your waist to give you a hug. This may be a bit of a challenge with small children. While she doesn’t have a mean bone in her body and would never intentionally hurt anyone, we are still working on not jumping on people. The other thing that we are working on is sometimes while playing she can get a little mouthy. We are also working on this with her. She just wants to make sure you keep playing and know how much she wants to be with you.
She is a quick learner and with a little more work, she will easily learn good manners. She is a sweet girl and will soak up all the affection she can while showering her forever family with loads and loads of love. Although she is okay around other dogs, she does not seem to like energetic dogs in her face so would be okay living with a calm dog or possibly prefer to be the one and only.

26-Piper
King Charles/mix
approx. 6 yrs. old
approx. 15 lbs.
Kids: No
Cats: Unknown
Dogs: Very particular, would be better as an only dog or with one addition dog with the right personality.
Leash Trained: Yes
Crate Trained: Yes

Meet Piper!
She is a sweet and friendly girl who loves being an indoor dog but, she does like her walks. However, her walks have to be controlled because meeting other dogs on a walk is a stressor for her. She can't process feeling vulnerable when a dog gets close to her and can be reactive in an uncontrolled situation.

No kids and a quiet environment are best and no first-time dog owners. She is six-year-old spaniel mix completely house trained. Sleeps all night long in a crate and loves to snuggle. Would do best in a home with one dog or no dogs and loves her toys.

Meet Summit. This extra special cutie is looking for his fur-ever home.
He would love having another dog and loves to play with our puppy and tolerates our elderly poor tempered dog well with no issues.
He is nervous and slow to settle but when he does settle, he is a total sweetie and just wants to be around his people.
He is fully potty trained and has had no accidents with us.
He is slow to warm to men.
He is too reactive for children.
Please help him find his furever family to love.

26-Telluride
Female
Terrier/mix
approx. 3 yrs old
approx. 16 lbs.
Dogs: Yes-playful, active
Cats: No
Housetrained: Yes, with consistency
Crate Trained: Yes

Hello there! I’m Telluride aka, Winters or get your butt in here right now! I could be your future best friend and part-time household supervisor. I am a 3-year-old spunky, fearless, sassy diva weighing in at 16 pounds. Ideally, I should weigh about 18-20 pounds, so I’m currently working on adding a few extra curves (you know…winter body goals).
I have been told many times that I’m a very sweet dog and I love people and other dogs very much. I’m an energetic girl who enjoys roughhousing with my canine friends -but I do prefer to have the upper paw. Some dogs say I can be a little insistent about winning the wrestling match….but what can I say? I’m competitive.
Because of my play style, I’d do best with a dog buddy who can match my energy. Older dogs or smaller pups might not appreciate my “let’s wrestle NOW!” Approach to friendship.
I also have a very strong prey drive. Squirrels, birds, leaves blowing suspiciously in the wind….they’re all highly susceptible and must be chased immediately. I am still working on listening when it’s time to stop barking because sometimes, I get a little stubborn and need my human to come retrieve me from my very important yard patrol duties.
I love walks, toys and trips to the dog park where I can run and play. I’m mostly potty trained but I do best with a consistent routine and a little guidance.
Now small confession: I can be something of an escape artist. If there is a gap in the fence I may find it. Wrought iron fences? Think of them more as suggestions. So, I’ll need a secure, well-enclosed yard. I’ve also been known to dig occasionally ….but I usually stop with corrections-assuming I agree with the correction on that day.
The good news? I don’t have separation anxiety. I’m perfectly happy hanging out in the yard with or without a friend while my humans are inside. At night, I sleep quietly in my crate (or on your bed) like a perfect angel and don’t make a peep till you wake up in the morning to let me out for a potty break.
I also enjoy being brushed and pampered, and I stand nicely on the grooming table like the little diva I am. Car rides? no problem- I settle right down in the back seat and enjoy the ride.
What I am looking for is a furever home with a patient and firm human who will love me and all my quirky, sassy charm while helping guide me into becoming the best companion I can be.
So….Could that be you?
Because I promise. Life is way more fun with a little diva like me around.
