Story
*Courtesy Post* Currently in North Park. Gemma was abandoned and picked up. She is spayed. We believe she is about 1.5-year-old. She is good with dogs and people. I have not seen her around cats or kids but she is such a calm, sweet girl that I don’t predict any problems. She will eat anything in front of her and loves to chew on toys and lounge on laps. She is about 35 pounds. If interested in meeting this sweet girl please message or call Sarah at (925)337-3584 or email at sfletcher217@gmail.comNovember 4, 2024, 4:09 pm

Story
Charlie is a 5 year old mix between a Rhodesian Ridgeback, Shar-Pei and Pit, she loves to be in the company of people, she love attention and to be pet. She is extremely smart is treat motivated, meaning she can be trained very easily. She sleeps most of the day on her bed, but loves walks around the neighborhood, playing with her squeeker toys, hikes, the beach and playing fetch at the park. Charlie would thrive with an active owner who loves the outdoors and car rides. She also loves playing with other dogs. Charlie stays up-to-date with her veterinary checkups and vaccinations, but also suffers from skin allergy reactions to certain foods. As a result she takes a pill every morning to help counter-act the side effects of her allergies, if left untreated for even a day she will develop itchy bumps on her skin and ear infections. She also can be uneasy around younger children (5-12 yo) as she seems to have a slight distrust towards them.

Story
How this pet arrived: This pet was brought in by a community member. Why this pet is the one for you:Meet Orbit! This friend is full of energy and loves to have fun! He can be very shy at first, and requires extra time (and treats) to break him out of his shell. With time, he will become your best friend. He will do best in a quiet home where he can get the extra support he needs, and with no young kids around. When he gets to know you, he will show you his silly and goofy personality! Orbit loves to play, and can be a bit over-excited at times. With training, he will learn how to be the bravest and most polite boy he can be! Ask about him today! At SDHS:This pet has been vaccinated, microchipped and spayed neutered. This pet is now ready for their new home! Primary Color: Tan Weight: 101 Age: 3yrs 2mths 0wks
