Hello there! My name is Sassafras, and I'm on a journey to find my forever home. When I first arrived at East Bay SPCA I was really, really scared. I wasn't sure where I was, so I stayed hidden in my crate. Luckily, I was moved to cozy foster home. It took me a couple of weeks, but pretty soon I realized I was safe, and I got to know my foster mom. In her home, I'm a snuggly, loving little dog, and I co-exist well with my little roomies.
When I come back to the shelter for visits, I'm still pretty worried. I'm looking for an adopter that's willing to take a chance on me - that understands that it may take me a while to show my true, sweet colors, but is willing to put in the time (and the treats!) to help me get acclimated to a new home. Are you someone with a quiet, low traffic adults-only home? Are you looking for a quiet companion that's more interested in a snuggle on the couch than a great adventure?
If you think this may be you, reach out to my friends in the Behavior & Training Department at behavior@eastbayspca.org to discuss further and set up a meet! Primary Color: Tan Weight: 14.2 Age: 7yrs 3mths 3wks
