Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Maverick, a 1.5 year old Boxer Mix from Rosarito who’s ready to find his forever home! With his soulful eyes and gentle nature, this sweet boy is sure to steal hearts wherever he goes. Maverick can be a bit timid at first, but once he feels safe, his warm and goofy personality begins to shine. He’s playful and energetic once he comes out of his shell — always ready for a game of fetch, a romp with a canine friend, or a good belly rub. Maverick would do best in a home with another friendly dog who can help him build confidence and show him that the world isn’t such a scary place.

Story
How this pet arrived: Shay was brought in by a community member on October 28, 2025. Why Shay might be the one for you:Meet Shay Natalia Gee, a sweet and energetic dog in search of a loving new home! Shay keeps herself quietly occupied with toys and naps in her kennel. Outside her kennel, she can get excited and jumpy, but calms down with the help of some tasty treats and guidance. She will thrive with lots of exercise and enrichment to use up some of her natural energy before she settles in for pets and snuggles. Due to her excitable nature, Shay is looking for a home without young children (under 6) and where she can be the only pet. She is a smart cookie, making positive reinforcement training a breeze. A consistent routine and fun, engaging activities will help Shay get used to her new home and feel like part of her new family! Come ask about adopting her today.At SDHS: Shay has been vaccinated, microchipped and spayed. Shay is now ready for her new home! Primary Color: Brindle Weight: 49 Age: 5yrs 2mths 2wks

How this pet arrived: This pet was brought in by a community member on August 17, 2025. Why this pet is the one for you:Meet Mija, an energetic and sweet pup who adores people! Mija greets new friends with wiggles and a wagging tail, and with the help of some tasty treats, she'll be your new best friend. Sometimes her excitement can get the best of her, so she'll thrive with a structured environment and opportunities to channel her energy into positive outlets. In the yard, Mija hops around with joy and excitement, and shows off her zoomies. She walks well on a leash and responds well to positive reinforcement training. Mija has shown mixed reactions to other dogs in our care, so she is looking for a home where she can be the only dog. If you're looking for a playful and loving companion to brighten your days, Mija could be your gal! At SDHS:This pet has been vaccinated, microchipped and spayed.

How this pet arrived: This pet was brought in by a community member on July 20, 2025. Why this pet is the one for you:Meet Rufus, a gentle pup with a sweet-as-pie soul and a heart full of love! He can be a bit shy with new faces, but once he gets to know you, he will reward you with loyal companionship and wiggly affection. Rufus loves to go for walks and has wonderful leash manners! He enjoys taking things a little slower, stopping to smell the roses - and the rocks and the grass and anything else he finds. Rufus is one smart cookie and is more than happy to show you how he can "sit" and "shake" for a treat. Rufus doesn't seem to mind seeing other dogs on walks, but doesn't have a known history of living with other canines. He will however need to go to a home without cats or small pets. If you're ready to welcome a goofy, playful, loving friend into your home, look no further than sweet Rufus! At SDHS:This pet has been vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. This pet is now ready for their new home! Primary Color: Brown Secondary Color: White Weight: 82 Age: 6yrs 5mths 3wks

How this pet arrived: Tiger was brought in by his previous owner on January 31, 2025. Why this pet is the one for you: Tiger is a laid-back guy who lives for the simple pleasures - sunny naps, belly rubs and quality couch time with his favorite humans. He's friendly, affectionate and always ready to soak up your attention. Tiger walks beautifully on leash and enjoys leisurely strolls or sniffing around the yard at his own relaxed pace. While he's mostly mellow, he'll occasionally surprise you with a playful burst of energy and some joyful zoomies. He also loves car rides, making him the perfect co-pilot for weekend adventures. Tiger prefers to be the one and only pet in the home, where he can be the center of your world. He can be reactive to other dogs, so a calm, dog-free environment is ideal for this sweet soul. Tiger recently had a dental cleaning, so his smile is sparkling - but continued dental care should be monitored with your vet. If you're looking for a loyal, cozy companion who just wants to be loved, Tiger might be your perfect match. Grab a leash and collar and come adopt him today!
