JEWELS*

Description

Meet Jewels, the adolescent poodle mix. Jewels came into the Shelter as a stray after a good Samaritan found her running around in the street and wanted her to be safe and sound. Upon arrival to the Shelter, Jewels was a bit nervous and uncomfortable. With time and patience, she warmed up to staff members. By the end of the second day, she was sitting in a staff member’s lap and leaning in for pets. Jewels may be a bit nervous in the transition and would thrive with an adopter who will take things at her pace. A home with another dog may be a fit after a meet ‘n greet at the Shelter. We do not have any history of Jewels with cats or children. Jewels is available for pre-adoption. Come meet her, fall in love and take her home after her spay surgery. The Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter Foundation is now offering “Pawsitivity Bucks” with every dog adoption. This $200 training voucher is a way for newly adopted canines and their guardians to connect with local positive reinforcement based behavior consultants and get their relationship started off on the right paw!Please note: Our Santa Cruz location’s Shelter hours are 11-6pm, 7 days a week! Although clients can walk through and see any animals in their kennels during open hours, we end “meet and greets” (aka meeting an animal out of the kennel) at 4:30pm every day. If you’d like to meet an animal out of the kennel, please arrive before 4:00pm to allow for time to discuss individual animals and meet them.
