Story
How this pet arrived:Maumau was brought in by a community member on June 27, 2026. Why this pet is the one for you: Meet Maumau, a quirky and sensitive soul who is looking for a very special "inner circle" to join! While she might look like she's ready to party, Maumau is actually a shy wallflower who prefers quiet nights in and a predictable routine over the hustle and bustle of the big city. Maumau is a girl who knows her worth - especially when it involves her snacks and her favorite lounging spots! She prefers to be the solo star of the show, so she's looking for a home where she can be your one-and-only dog. She's also a big fan of personal space; she likes to be the one to check you out first and decides when it's time for head scritches. Because she's a "refined" lady with specific tastes, she's looking for an experienced owner and a calm home with older kids (12+) who understand that sometimes a girl just needs a little "me time." For Maumau, the best adventures happen at home. She's looking for a family that is happy to keep her world small and cozy at first - think quiet backyard sniff-fests instead of busy pet stores or big family reunions. If you're a pro at reading doggy body language and love the idea of a slow-and-steady bond, Maumau is ready to show you just how sweet life can be when you take it one paw-step at a time! At SDHS:Maumau has been vaccinated, microchipped and spayed. She is now ready for adoption! Shy/Fearful Dog: Maumau requires a virtual behavior consult, please watch THIS video to learn more about her. Primary Color: Cream Secondary Color: Tan Weight: 29 Age: 5yrs 1mths 3wks

Story
How this pet arrived:Jude was brought in by his previous owner on June 3, 2026. Why this pet is the one for you:Jude is a charming guy who enjoys his walks and likes to do things on his own terms. He appreciates having his space respected and may take some time to feel comfortable with new people, so the best way to build a relationship is to let him approach when he is ready and allow him to take space when needed! He would thrive in a calm, patient home that can keep his world small while he settles in, with quiet walks, cozy naps, and plenty of time to adjust. Once he builds a bond and really gets to know you, his true personality blossoms! He becomes wonderfully bouncy, happy to see you, and will lean right into your hands for petting! Jude can be a bit sensitive about grooming, so he would benefit from a Fear Free veterinarian and gentle, reward-based handling for any future grooming needs. With a little patience and understanding, Jude is sure to become a loyal friend and wonderful lifelong companion! At SDHS:Jude has been vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. He is now ready for adoption! Shy/Fearful Dog: Jude requires a virtual behavior consult, please watch THIS video to learn more about him. Primary Color: Tan Weight: 51.2 Age: 4yrs 3mths 2wks
