Story
Hi there! My name is Sonnet and I'm a 4-year-old, spayed, pit bull mix that weighs about 47lbs. I'm a total sweetheart with an inquisitive side. I love to sniff and investigate new places before saying hello to new friends. It's nothing personal; I just love to take in new information. Once I've had a chance to check out my surroundings, I will say hello and want to play. I LOVE FETCH! It is my absolute favorite game! Sometimes it's the only thing I can focus on so I'm hoping for a family that is prepared to continue my training and help me learn that there's more to life than just ball. I'm also still working on some social skills. I could be the perfect adventure buddy for someone that's looking for a sidekick. Before I officially join the family, I'd like a chance to meet the entire household including any resident dogs. I'm sure we'll all have so much fun!

Story
Howdy! My name is Augie and I'm an 11-month-old, neutered, Pitbull mix that currently weighs about 50lbs. I am a friendly guy that starts off a bit shy and cautious. Because of this, I prefer adult-only households or ones with teens or older. Once I'm comfortable, my playful and energetic side comes out and I'll happily show off by running zoomies! I'm still young, so I'll need lots of guidance as I settle into my new home. I can be a little unsure of new things, but with patience, reassurance, and a little time, I'll definitely blossom into a wonderful, interactive companion. If I sound like the right fit, please have everyone in the family including any resident dogs come and meet me before taking me home with you. Augie ID#: A0991533 I've spent some time in foster care! Here's an update from my foster family: Augie is a sweet, affectionate and energetic pup who is learning how wonderful life in a loving home can be. Once he feels safe, his playful personality shines—he loves cuddles, head and ear massages, lounging beside his people, exploring outdoors, playing with dog friends and, of course, zoomies!  Augie is smart and eager to learn. He knows several basic cues, is crate trained, walks nicely when calm, and is making great progress with house-training. He can be cautious in new situations and feels most secure when his trusted humans are nearby. Augie is still a young, strong puppy who needs continued training, structure and socialization. He can pull and lunge toward dogs and squirrels on walks, gets very excited and mouthy during play, and is an enthusiastic chewer. For these reasons, Augie would thrive in an experienced, adult-only home, ideally with a secure backyard and plenty of opportunities for exercise and enrichment. His adopters should be comfortable handling a strong dog and committed to positive behavior training. Augie has already come such a long way. He now understands the comfort of a home, regular meals, walks, cuddles and kindness—and, most importantly, he knows what it feels like to be loved. With patience and continued training, Augie has all the potential to become a wonderfully loyal and loving companion.   Unless 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.

Story
I'm going to the Home for the Holidays Gala on 11/7! If you are interested in adopting me, I'll be ready to go home on 11/8. Hi everyone, I'm Ziggy! I'm a 14 year old, neutered, Pit Bull Terrier that weighs 44lbs. I'm a sweet boy that loves giving cuddles. If you're looking for a affectionate and gentle companion to fill your life with abundant love, who also happens to be a big coach potato, look no further! My friends here at PHS say I'm a golden oldie, but don't let my age fool you. I enjoy going on walks. I have plenty of pep in my step and I can be as playful and silly as some of the younger pups. Before officially going home with you, I would love to meet everyone in the household, including any resident dogs, so come on over and bring everyone! I'm so excited and ready to meet you all! Ziggy #A0941035 I recently went on a few sleepovers with a PHS Volunteer! Here's how I did: Ziggy did great during his sleepovers! He also did well with his foster's grandkids (ages 8 and 10). He's  potty trained and had no accidents in the home! He enjoyed walks around the neighborhood and  is a total couch potato. His favorite cuddle spot is the couch. His foster also noted that he can do stairs but a bit wobbly and needs a little assistance. Ziggy is a sweet and affectionate boy!Unless 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.
