Loving 12-Week-Old Toy Poodle Puppy Looking for a New Home We are sadly looking for a new loving home for our precious 12-week-old male Poodle puppy. He’s been a wonderful companion, full of love and energy, and it breaks my heart to let him go, but I want to ensure he finds a home where he’ll be happy and well-cared for. Here’s a bit about him: Age: 12 weeks old Breed: Toy Poodle Personality: Very friendly, affectionate, and full of energy Health: In great health and up-to-date on vaccinations Training: He’s been doing well with basic commands and is getting the hang of house training If you or someone you know is looking for a loving new furry friend, please contact me. The phone number is (xxx) xxx-xxxx . I’d be happy to provide more details or arrange a time for you to meet him. Thank you so much, Best regards, Ness

Story
Bronx was adopted from the Humane Society of Silicon Valley (HSSV) on April 23, 2023. He was 11 weeks old and weighed 9.20 lbs. and presumed to be a Border Collie Mix but staff was unsure what he was mixed with. Since his adoption he has completed the required Puppy Training course provided by HSSV while also receiving continued training by his family. Bronx is potty trained, knows the basic commands (sit, stay, leave it, etc..) but could benefit from more extensive and regular training and strong leadership from pack leader or family. Bronx loves to run, fetch and socialize with other dogs and people. He has been trained to be both on and off leash and responds to commands when off leash; but keep in mind he's still a puppy and sometimes gets distracted and may need commands repeated. Bronx also can get a little over excited when it comes to meeting other dogs and people and may jump on them or at them to greet them. This is something that will need continuous work to be corrected.

Story
I am crying as I write this because I love Stella sooooo much. Stella is a 14 week old black Labrador puppy who is gentle, smart, and loves to play fetch and snuggle. She is AKC certified and was bred to be a bird dog. She is great with other dogs and people. She is crate and potty trained. She does cry in her crate for the first few minutes but settles down pretty quickly especially with a peanut butter Kong :). We are rehoming her because we realize that we aren’t able to give her the time and attention we thought we would be able to when we got her. We are a newly married couple in our 50’s who work full time, have 4 kids, a grandchild, and two other dogs (one of whom is another puppy). We want Stella to have a forever home where she can get all the walks, play time, love, attention, and snuggles she deserves.

Story
Meet Phil, a resilient fluffy pup! Though his exact breed is a mystery (likely Laso Apso or Maltese mix), his charming personality shines through. Phil faces the world with unique challenges as he is almost completely blind in one eye and partially in the other due to cataracts, but he gets around great and loves playing fetch. Initially, Phil's fear led to biting, prompting an owner to surrender with a euthanasia request. However, since finding refuge in a caring environment, Phil has undergone a remarkable transformation. Despite his sensory impairments, he navigates confidently, proving that love and understanding can conquer fear. Phil isn't your typical cuddly companion, but he exudes happiness and confidence. He likes being pet and having his chest rubbed, (but on his terms), and he can give a warning if he has had enough. He thrives on exploring and being near his human and particularly loves sitting on your lap or on the couch next to you. He loves being with people in general and is good in larger groups (i.e. picnics, riding on the bus). His distinctive way of communicating, whether through vertical jumps for attention or barks to indicate his desires, adds to his endearing character. This little guy has preferences - he values his space and will assertively communicate when it's being encroached upon, usually when he is not quite ready to get out of bed or if he doesn't want to be picked up at that moment. However he is easily distracted and has a short memory, so he is easy to maneuver. Phil's unique quirks make him a character with a big personality and an adorable expressive face. Understanding his likes and dislikes reveals a joyous canine companion who thrives in a patient adult home. He is good with other dogs and cats. He is partially house-trained and is able to go on a pee pad. We discovered and are treating a UTI so hopefully that will help. He responds well to positive reinforcement (and clapping).
