Story
Clarence is 72 lbs of pure LOVE.Meet Clarence — a 1-year-old Boxer dreamboat who is ready to be someone’s whole world.He’s great on leash and calm in his kennel or play area. He has some friends he hangs out with here, like Luna. He’s also a day trip favorite who gets a lot of positive attention! But what Clarence really wants? You.He’ll lean his sweet red self against your legs and gaze up into your eyes while you pet him. Volunteers say it best: “he just melts into you.” And trust us… it only takes one walk to fall head over heels.He’s playful, gentle, and has that steady, family-dog energy. Though Clarence is always a gentleman and well mannered, when it’s time to head back to his kennel after a walk, he softly resists. He looks up at you with those big brown eyes that seem to say, “Please don’t put me back. I just want to stay with you.”Clarence is breaking our hearts — but he doesn’t have to. He just needs someone to choose him.Come meet Clarence at our Goleta shelter on Overpass Rd. You`ll see what we all see.

Story
HI - I'M RILEY, and I'm looking for a special adopter! ! I'm a 3-year-old Boxer-Shepherd mix in need of a foster or forever home. I was rescued from a California shelter where I was pretty terrified - I sat in the back and looked at people as they walked by. Now, whenever I go someplace new, I'm scared all over again, until I really bond with my person. I have done fine with other dogs so far, but I need someone who can take me in and work with me to help me become confident and secure. I weigh about 50-55 lbs. Please email for an application.

Story
Hi, I’m Poppy! I came to HSVC through another agency and I’m ready to find a family to share all my energy and enthusiasm with. I’m a playful girl who loves having fun and enjoys spending time with other dogs, especially friends who can match my rough-and-rowdy play style. I’ve got a lively personality and would thrive in a home that appreciates a playful pup who’s always ready for action. If you’re looking for a fun-loving companion to keep life exciting, I’d love to meet you.

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Luna came to us after losing one owner and then being abandoned by another. She was slow to trust — sitting frozen in her kennel for days. But once she opened up, we saw exactly who she`d been hiding: a silly, joyful, zooming, snuggling girl who had just needed someone to wait for her.Luna does the best zoomies. She greets her favorite handlers like they`re the most important person who ever walked through a door. She loves meeting new people, and — something we honestly weren`t sure we`d ever say — she loves meeting new dogs too. When she first came to us, she was undersocialized and reactive, and we weren`t sure she could share space with other dogs at all. Now she`s out in the yard with dog friends every day. We`ve done a complete 180, and we think a canine companion could actually be key to her success in a home.Here`s what we want you to know going in: change is hard for Luna. It was hard when she arrived, and it will probably be hard again when she moves to a new home. She has struggled to settle in foster situations — not because anything is wrong with her, but because her nervous system needs time to catch up with her heart. She`ll need a patient, experienced adopter who can give her space to decompress, maybe a room or corner to call her own, and the grace to let her get there at her own pace. Her excitability is something she`s still working on, and a little training will go a long way.What she needs in return isn`t much. A leash walk — which she`s great on. A chew toy and someone to sit beside — her ideal afternoon. The occasional snuggle. She knows sit and shake, she`s working on crate training, and she has so much love to give once she knows it`s safe to give it.Luna is worth the effort. Anyone who`s watched her come this far already knows that.
