Story
How this pet arrived:This pet was brought in by a community member on August 06, 2026. Why this pet is the one for you:Meet Oreo, a sweet and gentle pup looking for a loving new home! Oreo can be a bit shy with new faces and spaces and appreciates some extra time to build trust. Once he feels comfortable, he blossoms into a playful, affectionate companion. The key to his heart? Plenty of treats, and don't forget his leash - he loves going on walks! Because of Oreo's shy nature, he may thrive best in a lower-traffic household without any young, unruly children. If you’re ready to give Oreo the love and care he deserves, speak to an adoption counselor to learn more today! At SDHS:This pet has been vaccinated, microchipped and spayed/neutered. This pet is now ready for adoption! Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 40.2 Age: 3yrs 0mths 2wks

Story
Greetings, we are looking to rehome our black pug named Gus. I’ve had Gus since he was an 8 week old puppy and now he just turned 8 years old. With our growing family we’ve found it really hard to keep up with the love and attention Gus needs. Gus is house trained and is a great listener. He’s definitely the type of dog for someone who loves to cuddle. He enjoys napping in high places and sitting on laps. Even at 8 years old he is very active and loves walks. We are not expecting any kind of fee because the most important thing is that he goes to a loving home. He regularly visits grandmas house which has all 3 different breed dogs and is playful with all of them. He has no known allergies but does eat a special food for his bladder function found at Petco. Would love to answer any questions one might have.
