Story
Meet Briton Blu — A Loyal, Loving Companion Looking for His Forever Home Briton Blu (pronounced Brighton Blue) is a sweet, loyal, and loving dog who is looking for a new forever home where he can receive the time, attention, exercise, and affection he deserves. Briton Blu is very well-behaved, obedient, and wonderfully quiet. He rarely barks and is a well-mannered companion in the home. He loves his people, enjoys cuddling, and would thrive with someone who has plenty of time to spend with him. He loves children and is comfortable around cats. His compatibility with other dogs is more individual—it really depends on the other dog’s personality. Briton Blu walks nicely on a leash. However, he will chase deer, squirrels, rabbits, or geese. He would need a securely fenced-in yard where he can safely enjoy outdoor time when he’s not being walked and an owner who has time to walk and play with him. Briton Blu’s owner is giving him up because owner’s work hours have changed. Briton Blu is crate trained and very accommodating, but he shouldn’t be in his crate more than 4 hours, and due to owner’s new hours, that is no longer an option. A fenced-in yard would be a perfect solution to this issue and is a must. Briton Blu is ready to be someone's devoted companion. He is loyal, affectionate, obedient, loving, and happiest when he can be close to his people. He deserves a home where he can spend time being part of a family.

Story
Location: Fresno, CA Say hi to Atlas! This cutie guy is about 8-10 months old and was found roaming the streets. No microchip, no owner has been found. The finder cannot keep him, as he is very much a puppy and tends to run over her little dogs. He is currently 35 lbs. We are guessing Atlas to be a blend of Dalmatian and Cattle dog, that equals adorable & sweet. Gets along great with other dogs, of course after a proper introduction. He is very shy and timid at first, once he warms up, he just wants to be near you. Atlas loves to run and his recall is pretty good. He enjoys learning things, is easy to train, he will let you dress him up, brush his teeth, clean his ears, and he is good at letting you know he needs to potty Stuffies are his favorite thing to destroy, otherwise he might get into other things laying around, he is still a puppy. Loves nice, hearty chews to keep him busy. Atlas is getting more comfortable with kisses and hugs. We don't think he was ever cuddled before, still somewhat of a foreign concept to him. good car rider Atlas will be neutered with his adoption. We do not know about kids or cats at this time. We think he would be fine with kiddo's over 9+ years old.

Story
Please meet Sherman. This 7-month-old puppy is here to remind you every day that life is fun, and there is nothing more important than cuddles, kisses, and belly rubs. Sadly, Sherman lost a leg after it was broken and didn't heal properly. But don't tell him there's something he can't do because of it—he'll prove you wrong! He's able to jump, run, play, cuddle, and take part in just about any other adventure you might have in mind. Sherman loves everybody, and he wants everyone to know it. He was recently at a local festival, where he joyfully wagged his tail while kids and adults stopped to give him pets. Other dogs? No problem! He's currently in a foster home with a wide range of dogs of every size and age, and he gets along with them all. And cats? They're okay, too! He likes to sniff them, but otherwise thinks they're just fine. While Sherman is pretty close to a perfect puppy, be prepared to work with him on a few things. Walking on a leash is not his strong suit, and he'll need continued work on his house-training. If you're looking for a dog who is already crate-trained, that will need some work as well. Sherman equates the crate with the shelter, so he'll need to be convinced that release is coming and that he'll soon be back out and able to frolic. Fortunately, he's incredibly bright and food-motivated, so training should be a lot of fun. Finally, Sherman is like every Dalmatian—a stage-five clinger. He wants to be with his person all the time. Be prepared for him to let you know at every opportunity that you are the greatest thing that walks the earth and that he loves you with every fiber of his being.

Story
Meet Dottie  Dottie is an adorable 18-month-old Dalmatian who is smart, playful, affectionate, and ready to find her forever family! Dottie is a true Velcro girl who loves being close to her people. If she could be touching you, she would be! She especially loves snuggling and spooning in bed and is happiest when she feels connected to her humans. 
She is potty trained and already knows several commands, including sit, lay down, shake, and high five. She’s playful and energetic and would love a home where she can get plenty of exercise, outdoor playtime, and attention. She enjoys playing with other dogs and gets along well with dogs both big and small. A home with another young, playful dog who can match her energy would be a wonderful fit. 
Dottie currently lives in a home with birds. She is curious about them but has been respectful and does not bother them. If you're looking for a fun, affectionate, smart, playful companion who wants to be your constant sidekick—and your bed buddy.
