Story
Their story began on the side of the road. Mama was found alone, frightened, and miraculously alive — and pregnant. Against every odd, she survived… and soon after, she gave birth to this precious litter. We named the puppies after bears, because like their mama, they are strong, resilient, and meant to survive. These babies are: ✨ Safe ✨ Healthy ✨ Thriving ✨ And ridiculously adorable They are being lovingly cared for and will be looking for homes that understand that rescue puppies come with a story — one of survival, second chances, and love. From tragedy came magic. And these little bears are ready to continue that journey. 🐾💛

How this pet arrived: Walterini was brought in by our Humane Law Enforcement team on February 26, 2026. Why this pet is the one for you:Meet, Walterini, a sweet and sensitive pup looking for a loving home! He can be a bit unsure at first when meeting new people and appreciates a gentle introduction to help him feel at ease. In the time he has spent in our care, Walterini has shown that he thrives with a patient approach and a predictable routine. He enjoys leisurely walks that include plenty of sniffing, and is a big fan of cheese. Walterini can be sensitive to certain types of handling, so he'll thrive best in a home without young children (under 8) where his boundaries can be respected. He is looking for a household that can offer him the steady encouragement he needs to build his confidence and share his affectionate nature. Walterini would make a wonderful addition to a loving home looking for a loyal and loving companion. Come meet him today! At SDHS:Walterini has been vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. Walterini is now ready for his new home!Shy/Fearful Dog: This pet requires a virtual behavior consult, please watch THIS video to learn more about them.

Story
A friend of mine gave me Zeus because he had too many dogs. Zeus will be 4 years old in July and is well behaved. He does well with other dogs and does best when he is around other dogs. Unfortunately I’m away from home 14.5 hours a day because of my new job and he needs a companion. He is house trained and when he needs to go potty, he will get your attention and walk to the sliding glass door. All of my neighbors love him but I just do not have the time any longer due to my new job. I will provide everything that I have for him; collar, leash, vest, dog food container, crate, bed, dog house, treats, bowls.
