FOSTER CARE! My adoption and training fees are 50% off!  Howdy, I'm Tilly! I'm a 2 year old, spayed female, Husky/Shepherd mix! I'm a 50 pound, medium sized dog with super sized energy! My ideal day looks like this: we wake up and have a big breakfast. Then we go for a sniffari where we walk around the neighborhood smelling every single flower. When we get back home, I'll be wiggly and want to play with toys. After we play, I'll want to settle down with a good chew toy and take an afternoon nap, getting ready for our next exercise session in the afternoon. If you've been looking for a fun and affectionate best friend, I would love to meet you!  Because of my shy and energetic nature I would do best in a household with older teens and adults, so please bring the whole family, including resident dogs to meet me!

Hi there!  My name is Bella and I'm an 8-year old, spayed German Shepherd that currently weighs about 65lbs.  I'm a sweetheart that's looking for a forever home with people that understand the needs of senior shepherds like me! I'm a smart cookie that enjoys working on my training, especially if you have some nice treats to offer. I love to hang out and chew on my toys once I've gotten some energy out by playing fetch. I prefer to be the only dog in the household but if you have a dog, please make sure we have a chance to meet before adding me to the family. I prefer human attention over dog friends but I've been able to coexist with a few dogs. For more information, just ask Customer Service about Bella!  ID# A924534  Unless otherwise indicated, adoptable animals are located at our Lantos Center for Compassion at 1450 Rollins Road, Burlingame, CA 94010.

FOSTER CARE! My adoption and training fees are 50% off!  Hello, my name is Kurlys!  I'm a 1 and a half year old, neutered male, German Shepherd, Alaskan Malamute mix that currently weighs about 80lbs.  I'm still a growing boy so I'll do best with a family that is prepared for a very large dog. I'm a curious boy that loves human attention and can't wait to make new friends.  If you have a resident dog, please make sure we have a chance to say hello before adding me to your family. I still have a lot to learn so I'm hoping for a family that is prepared to continue my training and give me lots of exercise! I'm a good boy who already know sit, down and shake (both front paws). I get a little bit stressed when I'm left alone so I would do best with a family that understands I need a little extra attention. For more information about me, just ask Customer Service about Kurlys! ID# A940881 My foster family thinks that I am the bees knees! Here's what they had to say: 'Kurlys is doing great! He's a bit scared of busy areas but he does great on walks around quiet neighborhoods. When he plays with other dogs, he's pretty gentle. He is learning to be alone at home and doing fine for up to an hour.'

Canine Good Citizen program Hello great big beautiful world! My name is Lola. I'm a 2 year old, 77lbs, spayed female German Shepherd mix. My exuberance and excitement for life know no bounds! I'm a happy girl who loves to romp and play; running zoomies in the yard is like the best thing of all time! I have a very good sit and I've been working on my manners through Canine Good Citizen class! The staff and volunteers say my manners have greatly improved but I still have work to do if I want to be a classy lady! I've been a great playmate for lots of different dogs here at the shelter, but I'd like to meet my future doggy pals before going home to make sure we're a good match. I would love to go home to an active family that would enjoy my energy and is looking forward to going on many adventures with me! Lola ID# A935144   The AKC Canine Good Citizen (CGC) program provides a perfect framework for training a dog to become a polite member of society! I am on track to get CGC certificate! In order to pass I have been training hard to master the following 10 items:   Politely greet strangers. Sitting politely for petting. Accepting of grooming. Good manners on walks. Walking through a crowd politely. Sit and down on cue and staying in place. Coming when called. Not reacting to another dog while on walks. Does not react to distractions. Waits patiently when separated from owner.          Unless otherwise indicated, adoptable animals are located at our Lantos Center for Compassion at 1450 Rollins Road, Burlingame, CA 94010.

Story
Hi there, I'm Reggie! I'm a 3 month old, 16 lbs., neutered male German Shepherd mix that will likely grow up to be around 80 to 90lbs. I'm an energetic, playful boy that loves to play, race all about, and have the best time with toys and my human friends! I'm still working on meeting and playing with other dogs, but I'm really gaining confidence. I would love my new family to help with my anxiety and socialization when I go home, and just like a little kid I need to work on my sharing as well. I would make a great new friend for anyone who is familiar with Shepherds and our needs.  I'm a sweet boy that will curl right up in your lap (well, at least what can fit of me) and give you all the doggy kisses! I would love to meet the whole family and any resident dogs before going home. Kids case by case.
