This helps San Diego Humane Society - El Cajon Campus with pet care costs.
How this pet arrived:
Diesel was brought in by a community member on September 2, 2025.
Why this pet is the one for you:
Diesel is a handsome, mature Mastiff mix with a big heart and an even bigger presence! When you first meet him, you'll notice his deep brindle coat, soulful eyes, and gentle, expressive face.
Diesel can be a strong, energetic dog, especially when he's excited or in busy environments, but he has also shown a calm, affectionate side with people he trusts. In quieter settings, he enjoys leaning in for pets, cuddling up close, and soaking in attention.
Diesel has made great progress during his time at the shelter - he's learned to settle more easily in his room and has been showing more relaxed, friendly behaviors toward familiar staff. He's eager for a patient adopter who can help him continue building confidence and channeling his energy in positive ways.
Because of his size and occasional reactivity around other dogs, Diesel would do best as the only pet in the home, with an adopter experienced in large breeds. A calm, structured environment and daily enrichment will help him thrive.
Diesel has so much love to give and just needs the right person to help him feel safe and at home again. Could that be you?
At SDHS:
Diesel has been vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. Diesel is now ready for his new home!
