Story
Hi there! My name is Chester and I'm a 14 year old Male Maltese/ Poodle Mix currently living at the Santa Barbara Campus, eager for a new home! Like all animals at Santa Barbara Humane, before going home I will be spayed or neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped​. My adoption also includes a complimentary post-adoption health exam with a participating local veterinary clinic as well as a supply of Hill's Science Diet food to help make my first few days at home a little easier. If you're ready to welcome me or another animal into your family, stop by during adoption hours—daily from 12:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m., except Wednesdays. No ​appointment or advance notice is ​r​equired! Need to pick up a few essentials before heading home? Visit the retail center at either Santa Barbara Humane campus, where you'll find toys, treats, collars, leashes, and more at competitive prices. Every purchase helps support the animals in our care and the programs that serve pets and people throughout our community. ​We hope to see you soon!

Story
Breed: Maltese / Poodle X DOB: 8/2020 Gender: male Altered: yes Coat: medium Size: medium Color(s): white Description: Hi, I'm Duffy, a Maltese / Poodle X with a heart of gold and a friendly, protective nature. I'm a sweet boy who had the rug pulled out from under him when I lost my previous home, but I'm hopeful that my next chapter will be even better. I'm house-trained and will happily do my business outside or on pee pads—whatever you prefer! I love going for walks and runs and is always up for an adventure, but I draw the line at anyone touching my butt. I'm an active lap dog who enjoys being close and having a good cuddle. I would do best in a home with older children or adults only, and as the sole apple of your eye, as I need time to warm up to other dogs, but with patience and kindness, I could learn to make new friends or be a great solo dog. I am a smart boy who knows my name and comes when called. I'm eager to please and walk nicely on a leash, though I may pull just a little out of excitement. I am the perfect companion for anyone looking for a loyal friend to share their adventures. I'm an active boy with a big heart, and I can't wait to find my forever family. Please fill out an online application to meet me. *Thank you to Sharon for sponsoring this wonderful dog giving him the chance for a better life.September 18, 2026, 8:43 pm
