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'm being fostered in the East Bay)Hi! My name is King. I'm a very handsome boy looking for a new home! I came to Marine Humane due to a housing situation.I am 7 years old, crate trained, and house-trained. I will sit patiently while you prepare my food and my foster brother and I eat close to each other.I have had only one family since I was a pup and being in a Foster home is very confusing. I love my foster brother but new dogs make me nervous and I do not totally understand boundaries. That can be rough on other animals that like their space or are smaller than me.I love walking, running, playing tug, and chewing on a ball. But I also have my favorite spot in the sun.I can get very excited and this can be difficult for some. I know I look big and can be too rough sometimes, but I just want to show love. I know with patience and care I will be the best dog for you. ***ADOPTION FEE PAID*** Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 61.8 Age: 6yrs 6mths 1wks

Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Hi, I'm Roo! I'm still young, full of energy and curiosity. I can be a little shy at first, but I promise I'm the sweetest girl you'll ever meet. I love to play, especially with other dogs. They help me come out of my shell and show my true playful nature. So, I really want to live with a family that has another social and confident dog who can teach me the ropes! I'm pretty tall already so dogs close to my size really make me happy. I might need a little time to warm up to you, but once I do, we'll be the best of friends. I've got a lot of love to give, and I'm just waiting for the right person to share it with. Adopting me won't just change my life, it'll change yours too. I'll bring joy, laughter, and a loyal companion to your life. So, what do you say? Are you ready to make a new best friend? ***ADOPTION FEE SPONSORED*** Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: Brown Weight: 58.4 Age: 0yrs 9mths 3wks
