I did a search for pal alto CA on pet finder and found some cute, short haired pups.

Katey Anne
Dog
Dachshund,Chihuahua Mix

Size: Small
Age: Young
Sex: Female
I.D: KateyAnneOHS

Notes: This sweet puppy is 4 months old and a bit feisty! Katey Anne is very lovable and loves to play with other dogs. We just got her and will post additional information as we get to know her.

He's rather big but sounds very well behaved.
Jake
Dog
Labrador Retriever,Whippet Mix

Size: Medium
Age: Baby
Sex: Male
I.D:

Notes: Jake is very sweet puppy, big too, for only 6 mos. He is housebroken, will walk next to you without a leash, use to being on a ranch with horses and staying with the rancher as he moved around his property. He likes other dogs, cats and people. Loves kids, good with other dogs and would be a great Family Pet. No toddlers please as he is still a puppy and excitable, would knock them over. He is good on the leash, in the car and all around nice dog. Loves women, especially, if you are active and have a nice big back yard for him, he would be a great companion dog too. Very nice dog...and has some training already...
