Story
With a gaze that melts hearts and a spirit that fills every room, Ursus is far more than just a handsome face. He possesses a genuine, expansive heart and a personality so vibrant it's impossible to ignore. Though he carries himself with a certain natural beauty, he also has a sensitive side; he tends to be a bit cautious and endearingly eccentric when navigating new environments. This "delightfully weird" phase is simply his way of processing the world before he feels comfortable enough to let his true colors shine.Once that initial shell thaws, you are rewarded with a companion who is remarkably quirky and unapologetically goofy. He is the kind of dog who turns every mundane moment into a playful memory. While Ursus prefers the company of adults over the high energy of young children, his social life truly flourishes when other canines are involved. He is a social butterfly in the dog park, always eager to make new four-legged friends and engage in a good romp. For a patient owner who appreciates a touch of character and a lot of soul, Ursus is the perfect match. Primary Color: Grey Secondary Color: White Weight: 48.4 Age: 2yrs 3mths 3wks

Story
I am in a foster home and not at the shelter. If you are interested in adopting, submit an adoption questionnaire by email. Learn more hereWhen Paxton found himself at the shelter, he was very shy and frightened at first. Since being in a foster home, Paxton has gotten to show more of his true personality. He is joyful, silly, and playful.  Paxton is the kind of dog that will benefit from lots of patience and the opportunity to meet people and other dogs at his own pace. A quiet, adult home with another mellow and confident dog would be ideal for him! He is housetrained, super smart, and loves playing ball. Paxton is estimated to be 7-9 months old and weighs just over 20 pounds.  Follow him in foster with @fosterpupsbayarea on Instagram, and click here to learn how to adopt and submit your adoption questionnaire.           View this post on Instagram                       A post shared by Adoptable Pups Bae Area (@fosterpupsbayarea)  March 19, 2026, 2:44 pm

Story
FOSTER CARE! VIDEO AVAILABLE! Hello, my name is Rudy and I'm a 3-year-old, neutered Border Collie mix that currently weighs about 45lbs. I'm a sweet and friendly guy that's hoping for a family that understands my special needs don’t make me any less loveable! I have a chronic balance issue that causes me to have a bit of a wobble, especially when I'm excited. But don't worry, I'm still a happy go lucky guy and I've adapted just fine! Sometimes other animals don't understand my signature wobble, so I'd like meet any residents dogs to make sure we get along. For more information about me, just ask Customer Service about Rudy! ID# A960272 My foster family says I'm the bestest boy! Here's how I've been in their home: Rudy is such a good boy! He has a bit of a wobble, but that doesn't stop him from enjoying daily walks, going for short trots, and playing with the family. He does great in the car. He can jump in on his own (we act as a spotter just in case) and he sits patiently during the entre drive just taking in the sights and smells. He loves squeaky toys and sometimes carries them with him on walks. This adorable boy is very affectionate and is a constant companion. He will follow you around the house like a fur and LOVES to cuddle. We have been able to leave him home for the work day without any accidents. He will try to chase small animals like birds, cats, and wildlife so he will probably be best as the only child. He is an absolute joy to have and we hope he finds his forever family soon.    Sign up to meet me! Since I’m not at the adoption center, you can inquire about an in person meet and greet with me by emailing your fully completed Adoption Profile Form to adoptinquire@phs-spca.org You must be 18 or older to submit a profile.  Application: https://phs-spca.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/AdoptionProfiles_dog2023_fillin.pdf *The application may not work on mobile devices and iPads.
