Hi there! My name is Timber and I'm a 1 and a half year old, 72lbs., neutered male Husky mix. I am a goofy boy who can't help but entertain you with my amazing acrobatics! I am pretty treat motivated but you have to grab my attention first. I can't' wait to get started on learning how to be the best dog I can be, and work on these strange things the staff here call manners. Did you know us dogs don't have thumbs? So, we often use our mouths to try and grab your attention, I need to work on that. While I do, I should go home to a family with kids 10+. If you have a dog, I'd love to meet him or her. I've been very friendly with other dogs as long as we have the same playstyle and they don't mind my puppy energy!

I recently went on a field trip with a PHS volunteer! Here's how I did:
Timber went on a two-hour off-site, mostly a long, steady walk. We went from Lantos along Rollins Rd. to Broadway, crossing at two crosswalks to reach the Audi/Porsche dealership, then continuing to the Rollins side of the Rosalie O’Mahony pedestrian and bicycle bridge. At multiple crosswalks after the walk signal, Timber became jumpy as walking resumed, suggesting excitement when movement restarted after waiting. Timber crossed the O’Mahony bridge without hesitation, fear, or reactivity, and was comfortable approaching the fence to calmly watch heavy 101 traffic and louder vehicles passing below. On the far side, he crossed additional crosswalks to reach the Bay Trail, where keeping him on a short leash, staying physically close, and maintaining light tension reduced his jumpiness at those crossings. The walk continued along the Bay Trail and then across Airport Blvd. into Bayside Park. Timber showed good loose-leash skills overall; however, walking with a shorter leash, gentle contact, and sometimes with my leg and his back lightly touching seemed to help him settle and enjoy the walk. Back in his dorm, Timber worked on sit, down, stay, and place, then played a brief “find it” game with kibble.
Unless otherwise indicated, adoptable animals are located at our Lantos Center for Compassion at 1450 Rollins Road, Burlingame, CA 94010.
You may call us at 650-340-7022 to schedule an appointment, or just drop by. Drop-In hours for Same Day Adoptions are 11 am – 5 pm, 7 days a week (closed major holidays).
We do our best to update our listings regularly, but we can’t guarantee every animal you see is still available. It’s also typical for us to have animals who haven’t had their photos taken yet, so you are welcome to visit our adoption center and have a look around!
To check on an animal's adoption status, please call 650-340-7022 during normal business hours to speak with an adoption counselor. Emails will be returned as soon as possible, but please allow up to 48 hours during busy adoption periods like weekends.
