My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet San Jose!

This curious and affectionate girl is always excited to meet new people. From the moment she greets you, expect tail wags, sweet kisses, and an invitation to play a round of fetch—one of her favorite activities!

San Jose is full of playful energy, but she also has a softer side. After a good play session, she loves to settle down and snuggle—often right on top of her foster mom for maximum cuddle time. She enjoys leash walks and is always curious about the sights and sounds around her.

She’s crate-trained, house-trained, and already picking up on basic obedience—this smart girl is eager to learn and please. While she's happy as the center of attention, she could also enjoy living with a well-matched dog companion, especially one her size or larger.

San Jose would thrive in a variety of homes, especially with people ready to give her the love, playtime, and guidance she deserves.

Come meet your new best friend—San Jose is ready to steal your heart!
