Story
Mitzy is a good dog who was adopted from the Oakland shelter about 2 years ago. She's approximately 5 years old. She knows sit, shake, speak, out, and go away. We're still working on lay down. She's very clever when she wants to be and is quite the escape artist. She's learned how to unlock the deadbolt and door which is why I'm no longer able to keep her safely.

Story
Banjo is a gentle, loyal dog looking for a quiet home and a person who loves the simple comfort of having a quiet companion by their side. He settles at your feet, follows you from room to room, and brings a soft ease to the day just by being near. He loves slow mornings, warm light through the windows, soft blankets, and the peaceful rhythm of being close to his person. Inside he is intuitive and easy to live with. Outside he enjoys fresh air, walking, and exploring. He takes in the world with curiosity. Banjo is looking for a peaceful adult-only home because busy or unpredictable environments can feel overwhelming for him. In a quiet space he shines and becomes affectionate, steady, and deeply connected to the person he trusts. If you are hoping for a calm, intelligent, and loving companion who brings warmth and quiet joy into your home, Banjo may be the good boy you have been waiting for.

If you are ready to open your heart and your home to this social soul, please ask to meet Tempo Tempo has participated in shelter playgroups and may enjoy a compatible canine friend in his new home.

Story
7yr old tan M/N shepherd mix Foster notes: Noble is a sensitive guy and he seems to be more comfortable around women than men for now.  He loves being near his person & follows me all day around the house.  He may resource guard his bed.  He bit my husband the first week we had him when he tried to pet him when he was on his bed.  I have since kept him apart from my husband and he has not shown any signs of aggression for a while and he has even wagged his tail at my husband.  I would still err on the side of caution with new people and men with his bed.  Any iffy situation I have him leashed and muzzled or on the other side of a baby gate.  When people come over or in crowded places I let him wear a comfortable muzzle.  It makes me more comfortable and it keeps him out of trouble.  He has walked in very crowded places in close quarters wearing a muzzle and has not shown any signs of aggression.  I feel that if there is any aggression it could be territorial or fearful aggression because I have only seen him do it at home.  I don’t know how he is around children but I think it would be a safer bet to say no kids.  He is potty trained.  He is good with other dogs with a proper introduction.  I have two pit bulls and a chihuahua and he hangs out with them all day long.  He is obsessed with playing fetch.  He will drop the ball in front of you while you are cooking dinner.  Once he thinks you are his person, you could not find a more loyal and loving campanion.  He has decompressed a lot in the short time he has lived with me and he will  be even better with time in a loving and patient home.  His ideal owner would be someone who is willing to take it slow with him and let him open up on his own terms, someone with a lot of dog experience, who is home a lot, a woman.  Also he came to me with itchy skin and I have been giving him fresh food and it has cleared everything up.  So a dream home would provide that for him too otherwise I think he might have allergies. Also Noble is very athletic.  If someone wants a jogging partner, he would be up for it. ##2632401##
