Story
Hello\! I’m looking for help finding a responsible new home for my dog, Agnes\. She is a 1\-year\-and\-4\-month\-old female American Bully\. She has a pedigree and is not spayed\. She is very sweet, affectionate, energetic, and does very well with children\. Unfortunately, I am currently experiencing a high\-risk pregnancy and am no longer physically able to give her the attention and exercise she needs\. My husband works long hours, so we had to make this difficult decision with Agnes’s well\-being in mind\.

Story
Hello, my name is Bailey! I am a 1 year old, spayed female, Hound mix who weighs about 60 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 the whole household, including 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.

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.

Story
Hi everyone, I'm Ziggy! I'm a handsome 14 year old, neutered male Pit Bull Terrier and I weigh 44lbs. I'm a sweet boy that loves getting affection and cuddles. Don't let my age fool you though, I enjoy going on walks and can sometimes be a playful and silly guy, though at times I can be a bit wobbly and stairs might be a bit too tricky for me. I'm young at heart, but not so young in my bones! If you're looking for a sweet and gentle lad to fill your life with all the love and affection, look no further! Before officially going home with you, I would love to meet everyone in the household, including any resident dogs, so come on over and bring everyone! I'm so excited and ready to meet you all! Ziggy #A0941035 I recently went on a field trip with a PHS Volunteer! Here's how I did: Ziggy was an absolute gem to take on an outing. He loves going for walks. I took him to my car and he eagerly hopped in the backseat (although he needed a boost) and after some initial excitement whining, he quieted down and enjoyed the ride.  He was very well behaved in the car; staying in the backseat without being secured.  When getting out of the car, he does need a little assistance jumping down from the backseat. He enjoyed a leisurely walk on the Facebook promenade, stopping to relax in the shade, rolling on his back, itching some hard-to-reach places.  He was very good with joggers and bicyclists passing by - only looking on with curiosity.  When we returned to my car, he was thirsty, and drank a full bottle of water that I poured into a plastic dog bowl.  Afterwards, he happily jumped into my car (again needing a boost) and quietly enjoyed the ride back to the adoption center. He is a lovely gentleman who is sweet and appreciative!  He really likes chicken too:)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
I'm at an event today, Saturday 10/10. I'll be back at the shelter after 3pm! Hello there everyone, my name is Clint! I am a 5 year old, tan, neutered male chihuahua who weighs about 12lbs. I am a confident, social gentlemen who loves hanging out with my favorite humans. I am a fan of the sniffari and love going on nice leisurely walks where I can sniff around and get to know what's going on in the neighborhood. While I get along great with my bipedal friends, I am still working on my dog skills, and would prefer to be the only dog in the household. If you are looking for a sweet lad who is on the small side them come down and meet me!  Clint ID#A0992970Unless 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
Howdy! My name is Augie, I am a 9 month old, neutered male, Pitbull mix that can grow to be around 60lbs as an adult. I am a friendly dude that starts off a bit shy and cautious. Because of this, I prefer adult-only households or ones with teens or older. Once I'm comfortable, my playful and energetic side comes out and I'll happily show off by running zoomies! I'm still young, so I'll need lots of guidance as I grow from puppyhood into adulthood. I can be a little unsure of new things, but with patience, reassurance, and a little time, I'll sure blossom into a wonderful, interactive companion. If I sound like the right fit, please have everyone in the family including any resident dogs come and meet me before taking me home with you. Augie ID#: A0991533 I've spent some time in foster care! Here's an update from my foster family: Augie is a sweet, affectionate and energetic pup who is learning how wonderful life in a loving home can be. Once he feels safe, his playful personality shines—he loves cuddles, head and ear massages, lounging beside his people, exploring outdoors, playing with dog friends and, of course, zoomies! Augie is smart and eager to learn. He knows several basic cues, is crate trained, walks nicely when calm, and is making great progress with house-training. He can be cautious in new situations and feels most secure when his trusted humans are nearby. Augie is still a young, strong puppy who needs continued training, structure and socialization. He can pull and lunge toward dogs and squirrels on walks, gets very excited and mouthy during play, and is an enthusiastic chewer. For these reasons, Augie would thrive in an experienced, adult-only home, ideally with a secure backyard and plenty of opportunities for exercise and enrichment. His adopters should be comfortable handling a strong dog and committed to positive behavior training. Augie has already come such a long way. He now understands the comfort of a home, regular meals, walks, cuddles and kindness—and, most importantly, he knows what it feels like to be loved. With patience and continued training, Augie has all the potential to become a wonderfully loyal and loving companion.  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.
