In the shelter’s words

Meet Stewey – The Water-Loving Cuddle Bug Ready to Make a Splash in Your Life! Stewey isn’t just any dog—he’s a seal in disguise! This handsome, middle-aged pitbull has earned the nickname “land seal” for good reason: he lives for water. Whether he’s splashing around in his water trough, soaking up the sun after a playful swim, or just rolling in a puddle, Stewey is happiest when wet and having fun. But don’t let his water-loving ways fool you—this goofy guy has a heart of gold. Stewey has a quirky, lovable personality that’s impossible not to adore. One of his favorite antics? Proudly carrying his empty food bowl around with a big, silly grin, as if to say, “Look what I’ve got!” It’s just a glimpse of the playful, silly charm he brings to every day. Beneath the fun-loving exterior, Stewey is a total sweetheart and a cuddle enthusiast. He adores people of all ages, making him a wonderful family companion who thrives on affection and attention. He’s also been introduced to a few female dogs and gets along well, enjoying the occasional chase or wrestling session—though he’s just as happy to lounge nearby afterward. Stewey would thrive in a home that loves water as much as he does and is ready to share in all his goofy, loving moments. He’s playful, affectionate, and full of heart—a one-of-a-kind companion who brings joy wherever he goes. Ready to dive into a life filled with love, laughter, and splashes? Call the Ranch today to meet Stewey and let him make your home his happy place! This dog, as well as several other dogs and puppies, are currently in our program through a special collaboration with Siskiyou County Animal Control. Due to severe overcrowding and limited resources in the region, many shelters are faced with incredibly difficult decisions. Together, we’re working to give these dogs a better chance by finding them loving homes or transferring them to partner rescues. They’re available for adoption just like our Rescue Ranch pups — but because of the urgency of the situation, they may be transferred quickly. If you're interested, we highly encourage you to act fast — they deserve a loving home, and it could be yours! Thank you for considering adopting a Rescue Ranch dog. While they are with us, each and every rescue dog receives the best of care in a loving and nurturing environment. Their routines include daily playgroups or partnering with dog buddies, quality time walking or being groomed, and two meals a day with dog biscuits for dessert.
