Story
I got my dog from a family friend. Lucas is a very joyful dog. He loves to play with his toys especially his plushies that squeak. He’s very active but also loves to nap. Lucas is very affectionate. He needs a little guidance with leash training but with the right person and time and effort I’m positive he can get there! I would love for Lucas to be in a home where he has a lot space to run around surrounded with people who will love him very much.

Story
GREAT WATCH DOG! Coco is a lovely doggie . She enjoys quality time with her favorite people that understand and appreciate the loyal nature of chihuahuas, known to be very protective of their owners . She likes to sleep a lot so if your schedule disallows to be home, no worries- the dog appreciates it! She is not fond of cats and usually will accept dogs of similar size and breed. She takes time to warm up to new environment, but once she’s comfortable, she’ll be very content. She likes to go outdoors, although not too early in the morning. Honestly, she likes her sleeping to go undisturbed sometimes to early afternoon . Winters and rainy days are not her favorite- she’ll prefer to stay home for as long as she can . She’ll let you know if there’s anything going on at the front door , mail delivery etc- you’ll be on high alert with her . She’s a homebody. No worries if you work a lot-she will wait for you and then greet you with a dance!

Story
Meet Leilani Leilani is one of those dogs who quietly wins you over. After starting life without the comfort and security of a home, she’s discovering just how good it feels to have people she can trust, dog friends to follow, and a soft place to sleep at the end of the day. She can be shy when something or someone is new, but give her a little patience and you’ll see her sweet, gentle personality begin to emerge. Leilani does wonderfully with other dogs, is great with kids, and really thrives with the confidence and companionship of a pack. At home, she’s an easy girl—house trained, non-destructive, and happy to simply be part of the family. She’s still gaining confidence on leash and learning that adventures outside the home can be safe and fun too. Leilani doesn’t need someone to rush her. She needs someone who will give her the time and encouragement to keep becoming the happy, confident dog she’s already learning to be. She’s done the hard part. Now she’s ready for the good life. ##2711001##

Story
Meet Lottie! Lottie is a beautiful girl with the sweetest face and puppy-dog eyes that are nearly impossible to resist. Her story started in a BART parking lot, where she followed someone to their car, hopped right in, and apparently decided, “Yep, I’m coming with you.” Lottie is believed to be a Pit Bull/Rottweiler mix. She’s smart, curious, affectionate, and very eager to be loved. We believe she may have previously lived around a homeless encampment, so life inside a home is still new to her. She’s learning the ropes, working on her manners, and discovering what it means to be part of a family. She definitely has a mischievous puppy side and may keep you on your toes from time to time, but she’s also incredibly sweet and wants to connect with her people. With patience, consistency, structure, and lots of love, Lottie has all the potential to become an amazing companion. Lottie would do best in a home with older children and a family willing to continue teaching her all the things she may never have had the opportunity to learn before. One thing we already know about Lottie: this girl is determined to find her people. She literally climbed into a stranger’s car to start looking for them.  Now she just needs someone willing to show her that she doesn’t have to keep searching anymore.  ##2857558##
