Story
Hi there, I am Nigel! I'm a 2 year old, neutered male Pug mix that weighs about 20 lbs. I'm a happy and social guy that is ready to be your best friend! I love going for walks to do some exploring and sniffing around. After a nice walk or playing with some toys, I also enjoy getting some love and affection. I could even jump into your lap for some extra cuddles! If you're looking for a cutie patootie that has it all, come on over and ask for me! Before going home with you, I would love to meet everyone in the household including any resident dogs, so bring everyone when you come and see me!  Nigel #A0994437Unless otherwise indicated, adoptable animals are located at our Lantos Center for Compassion at 1450 Rollins Road, Burlingame, CA 94010.  You may call us at 650-340-7022 to schedule an appointment, or just drop by. Drop-In hours for Same Day Adoptions are 11 am – 5 pm, 7 days a week (closed major holidays). We do our best to update our listings regularly, but we can’t guarantee every animal you see is still available. It’s also typical for us to have animals who haven’t had their photos taken yet, so you are welcome to visit our adoption center and have a look around! To check on an animal's adoption status, please call 650-340-7022 during normal business hours to speak with an adoption counselor. Emails will be returned as soon as possible, but please allow up to 48 hours during busy adoption periods like weekends.September 23, 2026, 2:38 pm

Story
Having produced some of the finest consoles in the video game industry, Nintendo is ready to "switch" from rescuing Princess Zelda on the streets of Stanislaus to being your best friend. A handsome brown-eyed fellow not unlike Donkey Kong, Nintendo is a chihuahua mix who qualifies as a Young Senior at only eight-years-old. He is great with other dogs, and loves long walks followed by couch time. Take him to headquarters in Kyoto, or stay home to play video games. As long as Nintendo is receiving your love and affection, he'll be your little Super Mario forever. Here's some notes from his foster: I love how he gets excited when I get home. He gets very playful and it’s fun watching him get the zoomies. Nintendo is great at keeping eye contact, which makes me think he can be trained easily. He follows me everywhere and always wants to be close. He’s just aching to be loved. With each passing day I see so much more out of Nintendo. His personality continually blooms on a daily basis. First of all, he’s smart. He learns tricks on nearly the first try and learns how to follow commands. He’s gaining more confidence with each passing day. I can’t rave enough about this pup. He’s so eager to please! He’s going to make his new owner a very happy person.

Pug Boston Terrier

Female, 9 yrs
San Francisco, CA
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Story
When you’re going back to school, few things are as indispensable as manila folders, and, while our Manila may not fit in your backpack, you’ll have trouble envisioning how you lived without her! She’s the perfect thing to keep you organized around her daily walk, meal, and treat schedule, although she’s a lax taskmistress – we hear she can be easily bribed with some chicken. Manila’s sweet frosting face and floppy ears that give the impression of blowing in the wind, combined with her huge doggy grin, indicate that this lovable lady is the life of the party. She has all of the energy of a new school year, with none of the homework! If you’re looking for a puggy princess to take you back to school, Manila is ready and waiting! Here's some notes from her foster : Manila is probably the sweetest dog you’ll ever meet. She warms quickly to new people and absolutely loves attention! She asks for pets all the time and will let you pet her and cuddle her for as long as you’re willing to. In the home she is the chillest and all about comfort and affection. She does well with basics commands (sit, stay). She is a really quick learner and responds well to treats, especially beef jerky style. Outdoors she’s sprightly and loves a good walk. On walks she ignores or avoids other dogs, she’s done great walking in the city, but likely spent most of her life in suburbs so she’s still getting used to city walking and can be uncomfortable with loud, acute noises like motorcycle revving or modified cars backfiring, etc.

Story
Bowser is 20-pound pup who is ready to find an active family to call his own. Whether it's a morning walk, a hike, or a weekend adventure, he'll happily be by your side. After the fun is over, he's just as content to curl up on the couch for some well-earned cuddles. His foster mom describes him as smart, eager to learn, and highly food motivated, making training both fun and rewarding. He enjoys working with his people and loves having a job to do. Bowser will thrive in a calm home in a quiet neighborhood with experienced adopters who can provide structure, consistency, and continued positive reinforcement. He is looking for an adult-only home, or one with older, dog-savvy teens, where his boundaries will be respected. If you're looking for a loyal companion to share both your adventures and your downtime, Bowser may be the perfect match.
