My story

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


I found Boris in the City of Merced over a month ago at a local park. Wanting to make sure he was safe, I took him with me to my home in San Francisco while I searched for any potential owners and reported him to animal control. I also took him to the vet and they confirmed that he's a pure Manchester Terrier, has no microchip, is in good health, and is approximately one year old.

Boris is truly a wonderful dog. He is calm, sweet, and not aggressive at all, he is just extremely timid and fearful - it seems he may be experiencing some trauma from his time astray. From what I’ve observed, he also appears to be potty trained but nerves sometimes makes him pee.

As much as I wish I could keep him, I travel frequently and don’t believe I’m the best long-term fit for his needs. I want to make sure he ends up in a stable environment where he can feel safe and continue to grow out of his trauma. I genuinely believe he would make an amazing companion for the right person.
