Story
This dog`s adoption fee has been generously sponsored!Robin is a 1-year-old Hound mix who made the long journey from Fresno Humane Animal Services to find his perfect home here in the Bay Area. This enthusiastic boy has been greatly looking forward to his debut on our website. When he sees a new friend, he can`t help but jump for joy -- a habit he is actively unlearning. Now, Robin`s able to sit for joy or even wiggle for joy, sans the getting-all-up-in-your-face-ness of his previous introductions. He`s a fast learner, a sweet dog, and ready to be your best friend.Come meet Robin today; he`ll be robbin` your heart soon!

Story
This dog`s adoption fee has been generously sponsored!Meet Duke, a 2-year-old Shepherd mix with a sweet soul and a bright mind, ready to find his home. Recently transferred from Tulare County Animal Services, Duke is still adjusting to the sights and sounds of city life, taking in everything at his own pace. While he’s still building confidence and learning to navigate the hustle and bustle of busy streets, Duke`s intelligence and love for treats make him a great candidate for continued positive reinforcement training. He’s currently working on learning to settle and is looking for a patient, dedicated adopter who can help guide him with kindness and consistency. If you want a smarty pants who`ll always keep you on your toes, come meet Duke!
