These dogs are currently located at the Martinez California Animal Shelter near San Francisco. If you are interested in any of the dogs listed or have any additional questions please email us here or call 510-709-6680. Please include your phone number so we can expedite things if you want to adopt. As always, we don’t have much time here. These dogs are scheduled to be put down this week!

We realize the Dog Files is a national website. so if you aren’t in the area, please don’t think you can’t help save one of our dogs. We will work with you to the best of our ability to get the dog you chose to you. Please open your heart to a shelter dog in need!

There are many ways you can help if you are unable to adopt one of the pups.

1. Sharing this post on twitter, facebook, email, craigslist, everyone you know and to rescue groups and no-kills in your area.

2. Fostering a dog by taking one into your home (and away certain death at the shelter) and taking care of it while you (with our help) look for it’s forever home.

3. Donating a few dollars to the Dog Files so we can help get the dogs out of the high kill shelter and chip in for the medical treatment that might be necessary.

4. Get the word out for people to follow the Dog Files on our Facebook Fan Page and Twitter!

Purchase photo albums for your collection. it would be best to acquire those that use adhesive pages with plastic covers instead of individual casings. Pick a good design that will fit perfectly with your dog photos. You might want to get the ones with durable covers to safeguard your pictures against wear and tear.

How to Crate Train Your Dog

Sunday, July 11th, 2010

1278872032 69 How to Crate Train Your Dog

The first stage of puppy hood is an important one. to get your 8 to 12 week old puppy to feel safe, secure and in the groove of your daily routine, it’s best to set up an area in a central area of your house such as your kitchen. this area is a great place to keep your puppy when you’re not able to keep an eye on him. Paws For a Minute? Quick Tips for gating your new puppy!

1. use a corral or baby gate and put a crate within the space. 2. Remove the door of the crate, as this allows your puppy to go in and out naturally and not feel locked in. 3. Put papers down in the far corner of the pen for bathroom use. 4. Provide him with a chew bone, toys and water. 5. Put soft music on, as this teaches him to relax and chill. It’ll also keep him company!

Once your puppy or dog is acclimated to going in and out of the crate on it’s own (while being gated) and feels that the crate is a safe place, it’s really important (during this phase of housebreaking) that the crate moves to a different part of the house! If your dog is either 16-weeks-old and ready to be crated (with the crate door shut for a period of time) such as all night long- then you’re ready for phase 2 of crating! this also applies to people who have adopted older dogs that have been properly socialized to using the crate-then you too are now ready to go on to phase 2.

Move the crate to your bedroom or another part of the house for night time crating. this teaches your pup to get used to all of your night time habits and be with you. this is an important phase in order to create trust. the crate creates a safe den space for your dog and also teaches your dog to get used to hearing and seeing your movements in the evening and teaches him that it’s not playtime. Remember to take your dog out on a leash for the last potty break of the evening saying the word, “Outside.” Then crate your pup and get ready for bed yourself. this sets a pattern of going to bed and in no time the crate can be replaced with a dog bed!
