In the shelter’s words
Sandie was found as a stray and taken to a shelter. She is a very sweet little girl who charms everyone she meets. She can sometimes be shy or even frightened around new people. We don't know what happened to her before she wound up in the shelter. She may have been mistreated, or she could have lacked the proper socialization that would allow her to know that strangers do not mean danger most of the time ... but she does warm up given some time to get used to new people and places. She is a darling little fluffball who we would like to see have a home with a yard. She LOVES to play in a yard and roll around on grass, so we'd like her to have that opportunity. If she does have a yard it must have a fence, and she will need to be watched when she is outside, especially if her new home is in an area where coyotes and other wild critters live. As it can take awhile for her to warm up to new people, her home should be in Orange County or close to it so we can help with that if needed. She can be left alone without issues and did well in a confined area in her foster's home. She rides well in a crate in a car and also sleeps in one. She likes other dogs but probably would do better as an only dog -- once she knows and trusts you, her favorite thing is being around you all the time.

Plan a visit with the source organization
Note: The adoption application can be filled out before meeting the dog, upon meeting the dog, or after meeting the dog. 1. Initial discussion with potential adopters. 2. Meet and greet with dog (can be people and dogs or just people the first time). 3. Further meetings if needed to get dog and other pets in the home comfortable and/or get dog comfortable with adopters. 4. Home check (may be done after step 2/3 or concurrent with step 3). 5. Adoption agreement (we always take our dogs back if it doesn't work out). 6. Fee for most dogs: $200 (occasionally for an older dog or dog with medical issues the fee will be reduced or even waived in the case of a foster or someone who has provided care and monetary investment in the dog). We will refund the fee if the dog comes back to us within two weeks of adoption. After that period we keep the fee, but will always take the dog back.
