Pet of the Week- Jumping Jack Frost

What a perfect name for a happy boy!


This four-year-old Labrador Retriever mix is outgoing, people friendly and a lover of treats. "Jumping Jack" also has a super soft, fluffy coat of fur making him even more lovable! When you first meet him, he might seem a little hyper, but once you get him outside to burn off some energy he will be your best friend. (Older kids OK; No cats please!)

Gifts for Your Pets

Ashlea Miller

Shopping for my family during the holidays is a cinch, but when it comes to my furry family members, gift-giving becomes one big guessing game. Will Nina and Gracie play with the blinged-out feather cat toys I painstakingly picked out for them, or will they just bat around the gift bows for hours like always? Will Tessie even care that my homemade dog treats are wrapped in holiday-themed cellophane and stuffed in her own monogrammed stocking?

Give A Holiday Gift: Open Your Heart to a Pug

Give A Holiday Gift: Open Your Heart to a Pug

SACRAMENTO,CA--With the holidays comes an incredible need, one that is not seen by most, but when discovered hard to ignore.

Cuddly, warm- hearted, peppy Pugs of all ages are left homeless in a season when animals are not top priority.

Some are abandoned, others surrendered only to be left at a shelter or area pound where their lives are often cut short due to overcrowding.  

Pug Rescue of Sacramento is a non-profit organization dedicated to making sure that doesn’t happen. PRO’s is comprised of Bay Area and Sacramento volunteers prepared to mobilize when needed, but during the winter months their numbers are few. That’s why PRO’s is asking for the community’s help to lend a hand and save a warm-hearted, loyal Pug in need of a loving home.

Pet of the Week- Clark!

Meet Clark!

An adorable and young Chihuahua mix is looking for a home this holiday season! At just a year old, Clark has all the characteristics of an outgoing and fun dog, but he's also a little on the shy side. Once he warms up to you (and he will, don't you worry!) he loves to go on walks or even be carried. He's happy on your lap and is a friendly and affectionate little guy. He's looking for a home with older kids or teens as he's not a big fan of little kids.
