We hope you and your Weims or any other furry 4 legged friends are having a joyous Christmas!

ADOPTION UPDATE!
How do your 4 legged Grey kids love the snow? WE'D LOVE FOR YOU TO SHARE SOME PICS!

Here we have 4 year old Bodhi who came to us in mid September. He was surrendered due to a change in the family's schedule that was not working well in Bodhi's behalf. They made the painful decision to have NCWR find him the home that this king deserved.

Bodhi initially had a tough two weeks, but once he went to his forever home in Kirkwood in mid October, his depression lifted, and he is now part of the community. Dad says he's super well behaved, loves meeting both new human and dog friends, and as you can see....he LOVES the snow! Have a GRAYT life Bodhi....you lucky boy!

Stella is saved!!!! NCWR broke her out of the shelter with just 24 hours to spare before she was to be euthanized due to overcrowding. Thank you to Robin for transporting, Frances & Ernie for opening their home to give Stella a safe place to land until she can be moved to her foster, and thank you to Brooke, who works at the shelter, who was desperately looking for help for Stella. Thank you, NCWR Volunteers, Stella is only safe because we have amazing people like you! Just look at Stella, so sweet and so happy to be out of the shelter!

Little Miss Irma needs to hitch another ride to a foster closer to her potential adopter! She has a meet and greet just after Christmas, just in time for a new family in the New Year 🎊. She needs to get from Petaluma to Santa Cruz any time December 18-20. We know the holidays can be hectic, but if you could help us pull off another holiday miracle, we'd be so grateful 💗
Please message us or comment here if you're available to transport Irma.

***Yay!!! TRANSPORT HAS BEEN ARRANGED! Thank you everyone!

A Christmas miracle & Transport Help needed:
This is Stella. She is a beautiful, sweet silver lab/weim mix who, unfortunately, found herself in a shelter. We typically can't take on mixes, as it's already tough placing full-breed Weimaraners, but Stella has a euthanasia date of 12/16 unless someone rescues her. We couldn't let that happen....so hold on, Stella, we're coming to get you! We already have a foster lined up for Stella, and more info to come as we learn more about her from her foster family. Welcome to the NCWR, Stella!
***TRANSPORT NEEDED! Can someone help transport Stella from the Stanislaus Shelter to Livermore, where her Foster will meet for pickup tomorrow, Monday??

A (late) Birthday wish to the Pinwheel 5!

Remember these puppies?? They earned their name Pinwheel 5 litter after we posted this video of them woofing down their food, in a pinwheel style! We had so many applications for these adorable puppies!

Time sure does fly, and they are now 2 years old as of 12/6 and all are so gorgeous, and we have heard nothing but great things about all of them!

CHOMPER lives on a lot of land near Napa. HANK, with the awesome cowlick, lives in the mountains near Tahoe. STERLING has the best of two worlds, with homes in Concord & land in Reno. And the girls....MIA travels to cool places, and SCOUT has a great home in Sacramento!

Chomper, Then & Now
Hank, Then & Now
Sterling, Then & Now
Mia, Then & Now
Scout, Then & Now

Thank you to all of the adopters who were eager to share photos of the Birthday Weims!

**NEW FOSTER HAS BEEN FOUND! We would still love to see some applications for her for a forever home! If you have been dreaming of a young adult female Weim, and have no other females in the home, she may be your girl! LET'S TALK!!

***We would LOVE for Irma to be in a home for Xmas, whether a foster home, Trial adoption or adopter! 🎼 ALL SHE WANTS FOR CHRISTMAS, IS 🫵🎼 !! Let's make this happen! We have had no applications at all. 😢

Irma is settling in nicely in her new foster home. Her foster family reports that she is a quick learner, loves outings with her family, loves cuddles and toys, and is sweet and playful! Irma would do best as an only dog or with a strong, confident male. If you are interested in adopting this sweet gal, please complete the foster/adopt application on our website: norcalweimrescue.org
