Hello there friends, my name is Denali! I'm a 2 year old, 55lbs., spayed female Labrador Retriever mix. I'm energy, affection and pure goofiness combined into one perfect package. If you are looking for activity and fun with a little hard work thrown into the mix then look no further because here I am. I am still working on my doggy skills and would do best with a family with kids 10+ that has worked with energetic and reactive dogs like me before.

Story
Hello, my name is Bailey! I am a 1 year old, spayed female, Beagle/Hound mix who currently weighs about 47 lbs. I am a friendly and bouncy gal who cannot wait to meet you! Looking for a new friend to live life to the fullest with? I'm your gal! I am outgoing and love exploring, sniffing, and running in the yard for fun. I have lots of energy, so I'd be a great new adventure buddy for you; we can go on hikes and check out the beach! :) I'm a smart lady, but still learning my manners, so please be patient and ready to teach me. I'd love to meet you, and any resident dogs, before adoption. Come in to meet me today! Bailey ID# A0984610 I recently went on a field trip with a PHS Volunteer! Here's how I did: Bailey did really well. We went hiking and finished with a short jog. She was friendly and wanted to say hi to everyone and every dog, but also easily redirected as we walked on. She was curious and enjoyed sniffing all the new scents on the trail. She was a good jogging partner. She also enjoyed running in the yard once we were back at the house, but also settled down in the shade after a while. She was sweet, affectionate and likes all the toys (squeaky stuffed animal, rope toy and tennis ball etc.) I hope she finds a home soon!   Unless otherwise indicated, adoptable animals are located at our Lantos Center for Compassion at 1450 Rollins Road, Burlingame, CA 94010.  You may call us at 650-340-7022 to schedule an appointment, or just drop by.

Story
Hello there, I'm Dahlia! I'm a spayed female, 2-year-old, Pitbull/ German Shepherd mix that currently weighs about 52lbs. I'm a sweet, curious lady that would love to go home with a family with kids 10 years or older that has experience with shy gals like me. My new family should also be prepared to continue my training since I'm still working on my doggy social skills and learning to share. If you have a mellow resident dog, please bring him or her in so we can say hello before I officially join the family! I would love to meet the whole household before going to a home, so come on by and say hi! For more information, just ask Customer Service about me. Dahlia ID#A0959886 I recently went on a sleepover  with a PHS volunteer! Here's how I did: I proved what an absolute angel and top-tier cuddle bug I really am! It didn't take me long to settle into a real home. As soon as I arrived, I happily explored every room, made quick friends with everyone I met, and claimed my spot as the ultimate couch potato. I loved watching the Great British Baking Show, soaking up all the scratches I could get, and sleeping soundly at the foot of the bed all night long. I was a total gentlewoman indoors: 100% potty trained with zero accidents, no shoe-chewing, and no digging in the yard! Outside, I had the best time running around the backyard with my favorite squeaky chicken toy. I love playing fetch, tug-of-war, and showing off my adorable evening zoomies. On walks and hikes, I was so well-behaved and didn't react to other people or dogs passing by. If you're looking for a sweet, loyal shadow who will run in the yard with you by day and snuggle right up next to you by night, I'm your girl!

Story
Hello friends, I'm Nova! I'm a 8-month-old, neutered male, German Shorthair Pointer/German Shepherd mix and I currently weigh 58 lbs. I am expected to grow to be about 75-90lbs when I'm an adult. I'm a sweet young fellow with a ton of energy who loves getting attention and affection when I'm not playing fetch with my favorite toys! Because I'm a working-type dog with a super amazing nose; I keep my nose to the ground, sniffing my next adventure. I would like to go home with a family who is experienced with my breed. I'd be perfect for a family with dog savvy kids 10+. If you have any resident dogs, I'd love to meet the whole family before I move in. I'm ready for lots of adventures, training, and most of all, love!

Story
FOSTER CARE! Hey there all you videogame fans, my name is Luigi! And like the Super Mario Bros, I am a silly, energetic, and active young guy. I'm a 10 month old, neutered Shepherd mix. I'm still growing and could reach around 50-60lbs as an adult. I’m a super social and friendly young pup so be ready with tennis balls to play fetch with me when I'm not enjoying awesome sniffaris while on fun walks! Even though I love to play with all kinds of dogs, I’m not ready to live with one yet. I would do best as the only dog in the home. I’m also working on my bounciness and I might be too much for smaller kids. If you are ready for a medium sized, fun loving, lick you face kind of companion, please come and meet with me today! I'm-a Luigi, number one, Let’s A Go! Luigi ID#A0985008 I recently went on a sleep over! Here's how I did: Luigi is an incredibly sweet, gentle boy with a heart of gold. His favorite thing in the world is playing fetch, he's definitely a ball enthusiast and will happily chase a toy over and over again!  He's doing great with his potty training and is learning quickly with positive reinforcement and treats. Like any young pup, he's still building confidence, especially on walks, but he's making progress every day as he explores the world at his own pace. One of Luigi's best qualities is how much he loves everyone he meets. He gets along beautifully with dogs of all sizes and, after a brief introduction, is always ready to make a new best friend. He's equally friendly with people and absolutely adored meeting families and children at the local farmers market. Luigi is an affectionate, people-oriented pup who thrives on companionship. He would do especially well with a family where someone can continue helping him build confidence when left alone. He's eager to please, non-reactive, and has such a gentle temperament that he's sure to blossom with a little patience, love, and consistency.  If you're looking for a loyal, loving companion who enjoys playtime, dog friends, and snuggling with his favorite humans, Luigi could be the perfect addition to your family.  Sign up to meet me! Since I’m not at the adoption center, you can inquire about an in person meet and greet with me by emailing your fully completed Adoption Profile Form to adoptinquire@phs-spca.org You must be 18 or older to submit a profile.  Application: https://phs-spca.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/AdoptionProfiles_dog2023_fillin.pdf *The application may not work on mobile devices and iPads.
