Nirai D7047
Nirai (means calm) and her 4 friends were all dumped in the streets of Fremont. They were all neglected, dirty and very matted. She is more timid and nervous than the others. Needs more time to decompress and feel safe at her foster home. The shelter had her shaved down since she was severely matted (See my before and after picture!). She is now relaxing at her foster home. More photos and info to come as she learns and feels safe.
1/20/26 Foster Home Update: She was scared for the first two days, but now she is a completely different dog. She sleeps very well through the night in her crate, is potty trained, and already knows how to use the doggie door to go to the backyard for her business. She is good with other dogs, though she doesn’t play with them much yet. She is also great with my 5-year-old son.
She loves human company more than dogs for now. She plays with my son and my husband, sleeps on our laps, and loves belly rubs. She also seems fine when we leave her at home for a few hours. I’m feeding her home-cooked food and she loves carrots and treats.
See how happy she is now in the links below!

3/17/26 Foster Home Update: She is good with other dogs but gets a little bit possessive and is attached to me. But overall she is great with small dogs. Ok with big dogs too as I do pet sitting but doesn't like when they are hyperactive. She is the sweetest dog. so easy going, fully trained. Whoever adopts her will be lucky to have her. Nirai loves running and playing in the backyard.
