How this pet arrived:Bud-E was brought in by a community member on September 13, 2026. Why this pet is the one for you:Looking for your new best bud? Meet Bud-E, a sweet, mellow gentleman whose absolute favorite hobby is perfecting the art of the afternoon nap! While he can be a little timid at first, this friendly boy has been wonderfully amenable with our team and has warmed up quickly. According to his previous owner's family, he is already housetrained and has done well with other dogs. Bud-E came to us after his owner passed away, and he is now dreaming of a cozy home where he can simply hang out and soak up lots of extra TLC. He is currently carrying some extra weight and managing arthritis, so he appreciates a little lift from a walking sling to help him get around while he works on his fitness journey (and no stairs, please!). Our medical team is happy to chat with you about his mobility needs and other age-related care so you can help this darling companion feel his very best. If your home is missing a professional nap partner and your heart has room for a big sweetheart, come on down and ask to meet Bud-E today! At SDHS:Bud-E has been vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. He is now ready for adoption! Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 130 Age: 9yrs 6mths 0wks

Border Collie Mixed Breed (Medium)

House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Shadow is a high drive working breed border collie who needs someone with breed experience (preferred). Fulfillment requirements: She will need more than just an hour long walk a day to meet her physical requirements. She currently bikes, hikes, and loves to swim. She is also well versed in carrying a weighted pack on her hikes, which helps her tune into her body and slow her mind. She's an athletic girl and needs someone to match that lifestyle. Sociability (Dog preferences): Shadow is dog selective. She would be perfectly fine in a home with no other dogs but would also do ok if she found a home with the right dog for her. No little dogs or other small animals though. She doesn't enjoy every dog but enjoys most in the proper introductions are taken. She doesn't enjoy chaos with other dogs but loves to partake in structured pack activities. She is NOT a dog park or high-energy daycare type dog. Training: She's crate trained and sleeps, eats and rests in one daily. She's highly intelligent and learns quickly. She is well versed in basic obedience cues: sit, down, stand, stay, recall, place, middle, and loose leash walking. She does not enjoy being approached, touched or spoken to by strangers but has increased her thresholds for tolerance by quite a lot. She can navigate public spaces with the proper guidance but is probably never going to be a "coffee shop" dog. Shadow's Adoption fee is $250 and includes spay, microchip and current vaccinations. To fill out an adoption application, visit https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/SSP-A-844 To follow Shadow on her journey to a loving family on SPOT's Facebook page, visit https://facebook.com/spotsavespets/ and on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/spotsavespets/

How this pet arrived: Toby was brought in by our Humane Law Enforcement team on January 5, 2026. Why this pet is the one for you:Meet Toby! This affectionate boy is happiest spending time with his people and soaking up all the love and attention he can get. According to his previous owner, Toby is "not a big walker" and prefers a mellow, relaxed lifestyle - making him a great match for a calm home where he can simply enjoy being by your side. He likes to approach new people at his own pace, but once he's comfortable, he makes human friends quickly and enjoys companionship. He will thrive best in an household where any children are 10+ and his body language can be understood and respected. Toby has been known to be protective of his favorite items, so he is looking for a home where he can be the only pet and where high-value resources can be carefully managed. He is also not a candidate for dog parks or other off-leash venues, but there are lots of other activities you can do together to strengthen your bond! With the right home, Toby will reward his adopters with loyalty, affection and heartfelt companionship. Ask about adopting him today! At SDHS:Toby has been vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. He is now ready for his new home! Primary Color: Brown Secondary Color: White Weight: 65.8 Age: 4yrs 0mths 0wks

Story
Router recently celebrated his first birthday on August 27th! I brought him home as a puppy from Northern California, and he has been such a loving and joyful part of my life ever since. Router is an incredibly smart, playful, and affectionate boy. He loves being around both people and other dogs and is happiest when he gets to socialize, play, and be part of the family. He also loves getting fruits and vegetables as treats and is always excited to try something new! He has such a fun personality and brings so much happiness wherever he goes. Giving him up is an extremely difficult decision, and my heart truly hurts at the thought of losing him. I’m looking for a home where he will be treated as part of the family, given plenty of love, attention, playtime, and companionship. Most importantly, I hope to find someone who will love Router just as much as I do - and hopefully even more!

Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Meet Corky! ❤️ At 12 years young, Corky is proof that age is just a number. This adorable Australian Shepherd/Terrier mix found himself at the shelter after his family moved, but he’s ready to find a forever home that will love him through his golden years. His foster mom affectionately calls him “Porky” because mealtime is his absolute favorite part of the day! Corky is fully potty trained and has never had an accident in his foster home. He’s also a quiet companion who rarely barks—though that may be because his hearing isn’t what it used to be. Corky can be a little shy when meeting new people, but give him a little time and you’ll see his fun, puppy-like personality shine through. Once he trusts you, he’s full of love, enjoys everyone he meets, and still has plenty of playful energy left. He’s also wonderful with other dogs and would be happy to share his home with a canine companion. If you’re looking for a loyal, easygoing best friend who loves treats, naps, and being part of the family, Corky is waiting to meet you. Senior dogs have so much love to give, and Corky is ready to spend his golden years showing you just how special they are.

Story
How Trooper arrived:Trooper was brought in by his previous owner on June 29, 2026. Why Trooper is the one for you:Trooper is reporting for duty as your new chief of sniffing, zoomies and very serious grass-rolling operations. This handsome goofball has a nose for fun and a talent for turning an ordinary walk into a full-scale adventure. Trooper can have a bit of "stranger danger", but once he feels comfortable, his playful personality comes right out. He enjoys bouncing around, offering adorable play bows, and showing off his delightfully silly side. Trooper has a positive history with dogs and may enjoy a canine companion after a thoughtful introduction. Trooper is deaf and may have some vision impairment, so he needs people who appreciate his special way of experiencing the world - a calm, predictable home where he can have space to adjust is an important part of helping him feel safe. He's looking for a home without young kids (10+), and we recommend that the whole family come for the meet-and-greet! The best Trooper teammates will celebrate consistency, patience and peaceful hangouts until he feels more comfortable. Trooper may take a little time to warm up, but the reward is one wonderfully goofy, gentle-snacking, grass-rolling, tail-wagging pal! Give this brave little Trooper patience, kindness and a calm home base, and he will be ready to report for love! Please bring a leash and collar when adopting. At SDHS:Trooper has been vaccinated, microchipped, and neutered. He is now ready for adoption! Primary Color: White Weight: 63 Age: 6yrs 3mths 1wks

Story
Meet Rosie, a sweet 1 1/2 year old, 33 lb female Red Heeler/Shephard mix (the perfect size), ready to be your new best friend! Rosie is house trained at her foster home, sleeps in the bed with her foster sister, and is good with other dogs, adults and children, although she has some cattle dog tendencies (like herding), so older children would be best. Rosie can be shy at first but warms up quickly, and would make a great running or hiking buddy, she loves to go go go and was found running on a large property. Rosie would love to go to training classes with her family, it's a great way to bond, and she would benefit from the structure and training, something she most likely has never had in her young life. This pretty, petite girl is a diamond in the rough, waiting for a loving home to shine her to perfection! Her adoption fee is $350 and includes her spay, microchip and current vaccinations. To fill out an adoption application, visit https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/SSP-A-1971 To follow Rosie on her journey to a loving family on SPOT's Facebook page, visit https://facebook.com/spotsavespets/ and on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/spotsavespets/
