Meet Local Celebrities, Axl and Rose

Meet Axl and Rose, a pair of young Chihuahua mixes running around the outskirts of town with no collar, no ID and nothing in the world but each other. They were brought in together to Pets Unlimited's veterinary hospital and shelter where they were cleaned up, given all their vaccinations and a complete medical checkup.

These two are as affectionate and playful with people as they are with each other but what they're really looking for is that forever home that could use a snuggle buddy or two!

To find out more about these adorable siblings, check out our website or watch this short Road to Rescue video, produced in partnership with cbs5 and DogTime.

It's time to celebrate London's 2 1/2 Year Adoption-versary!

In May of 2007, Pets Unlimited presented me with London, a 5 month old terrier mix. I had waited for many weeks to be chosen from a variety of different families who wanted the very cute and cuddly puppy. After that long wait, we bonded quickly and I am lucky enough to be able to take him with him to work every weekday. People laugh at us as he follows me everywhere, even when I get up from my desk just to make a copy! He is right there outside the ladies room when I emerge too.

He doesn’t like to be alone, but even when he is, he is well behaved and just sleeps on his loveseat in OUR bedroom. He is calm and full of personality. My daughter says he is the perfect pet for me as he is quite lazy and doesn’t require much exercise only loads of love!

He lives a life of comfort and love and we are a team. I thank you for making the right choice.

Meet Our Malinoi-rgi, Ava

This lovely city-sized Corgi / Malinois mix is Ava, a 5 year old gal from Fremont Animal Shelter. While she looks like a pocket-sized Rin Tin Tin, Ava is a good ole country girl at heart and is learning how to deal with urban life, including other pups.

While we are currently working to socialize her with her canine neighbors, she is looking for a mellow home ready to continue her social skills & leash training, as well as appreciate Miss Ava for the independent spirit she is! A beautiful, sometimes sensitive lady, Ava hopes to be the only furry love of your life. We think that once you meet her and see that big grin, you’ll understand love.

Our shelter is open all weekend long, so head on over and meet Ava today!

Ernie Williams - A Fairytail Ending

We were nervous when we adopted Ernie...an adorable little orange tabby cat. We did not consider ourselves "cat people" but wanted a family pet for our children's sake. Charlotte (10.5 months) and Jayke (6 years) were so, so excited the day we brought Ernie home. My husband and I were cautiously optimistic.

Happy to report...Ernie is the coolest cat on the planet. So very playful, sweet and gentle. I truly think he thinks Charlotte's a kitten. They play together for hours. He is in love with Jayke and follows him around like a puppy would.

This cat is smart, respectful and a pleasure to hang out with. We couldn't be happier and thank Shannon in the Adoption Center for all her help and guidance in this process.

With the Warmest Regards,

The Williams Family

The Perfect Pair: Puff Daddy and Norman

Puff Daddy and Norman are two big beautiful boys looking for love. They met at Pets Unlimited and have been close companions ever since. They needn’t necessarily be adopted together, but they sure do make a perfect pair!

Named for his manly, tom cat cheeks Puff Daddy is not as menacing as his imposing figure may seem. In fact, Puff Daddy is very gentle and appreciates gentleness in return. Mellow is the name of the game with P. Diddy, who is FIV + along with his best friend Norman. While Puffy is an around-the-clock cuddly type, Norman is an investigative athletic type who loves a good play session before some lap time. Once he’s convinced everything is as is should be, he likes to settle down for a mutual grooming session with his BFF, Puff Daddy.

If you can open your heart, mind, and home to one (or both!) of these fabulous felines, contact our adoption center today—they’re waiting for you!

Snuggle up with Leroy

Meet sweet and bashful Leroy - a 3 year-old Chihuahua mix from Hayward Animal Shelter. Bad, bad Leroy Brown has nothing on this good,good sable-colored muffin!

Little Leroy, while sometimes shy and dainty with people, can also be quite the rough and tumble doggie playmate and would love a home with another dog to show him the ropes and increase his confidence! He’s looking for a home that would like a pup that is super cuddly,would like to go to clases, and loves park adventures!

Are you the one for this pocketful of love and adoration? Meet lovely Leroy today & find out!

Puff Daddy in the House!

Named for his manly, tom cat cheeks Puff Daddy is not as menacing as his imposing figure may seem. In fact, Puff Daddy is very gentle and appreciates gentleness in return. He’d love an affectionate household who doesn’t mind that he has FIV (come on in to find out what that means). Do you already have an FIV+ cat at home already? Puff Daddy gets along with other cats, and he particularly likes to groom his feline friends. Mellow is the name of the game with P. Diddy, so if you want a cool cat with a huge head (not the ego, but literally a very large head), he’s your cat. Every time you leave the house, he’ll look at you and say, “I’ll be missing you.”

It's kitten season at Pets Unlimited! So, when you stop by to visit lovable Puff Daddy, be sure to pencil in time for a play date with our gaggle of kittens across the hall.
