About Voltaire

Voltaire is a Lhasa Apso mix who came into the shelter as a stray alongside his brother, Socrates, a miniature poodle mix. We don't have details about their previous life, but they can be adopted together or separately, as they don’t seem fully bonded. Upon arrival, both pups were heavily matted but have received grooming that has transformed them into handsome little gentlemen. Regular grooming and brushing will be key to keeping Voltaire's coat in top shape moving forward. Voltaire has shown good behavior with dogs of his size and larger, suggesting he would fit well in a home with other dogs. However, we do not have information about his experience with children or cats. He is currently available for pre-adoption and can go home after his neuter surgery. The Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter offers a great perk: "Pawsitivity Bucks," a $200 training voucher for newly adopted dogs to connect with local positive reinforcement trainers. Visit us in Santa Cruz to meet Voltaire; just be sure to arrive before 4:00 pm for a proper meet and greet. Give him the loving home he deserves. Apply today!
