Shadow Nose's Story Meet Shadow Nose: Your Future Best Friend! 💖  Hi there! My name is Shadow Nose and I’ve been waiting patiently for the perfect person to bring me into their family. Could that be you?  I’m a 4-year-old, 53-pound, Akita German Shepherd Mix with a heart full of love and a tail that never stops wagging! My foster family says I’m incredibly sweet, affectionate, and well-adjusted with just the right amount of energy to keep you smiling every day.  Here’s a video to help you get to know me better: https://youtu.be/lvdhggj4fPo  🩺 My Special Needs I have been diagnosed with mega-esophagus, a condition that means my throat is oversized and I need a little extra care when eating. But don’t worry — it’s super manageable! My foster family and veterinarian have created an easy routine that keeps me happy and healthy. I even have a fancy custom feeding station (built just for me!) where I eat and drink comfortably.    🐾 Why You’ll Love Me From my captivating smile to my playful spirit, I’m the kind of dog who lights up a room. I’m: - Affectionate: I’ll happily cuddle up with you after a fun day. - Energetic and playful: I love tossing my toys around and trying my best at fetch! - Learning to have good canine manner - I’m crate trained, know how to use a doggy door and can be left home alone without any issues.    🌟 A Star Companion I’m great with adults, strangers and kids and I even love car rides! One of my previous fosters took me to the Veteran’s hospital, where I brought smiles to everyone’s faces. At home, I’m bouncy and playful, but I also know how to wind down with a cozy nap in my dog bed.   🐕 My Ideal Home I’d love to be your one-and-only furry friend, but with the right introductions, I might get along with another dog. I have "bossy" tendencies! I haven’t met any cats yet, so I’m not sure how I’d feel about them. My moderate energy level makes me a great fit for most homes and I promise to fill yours with love and laughter.   💖 Let’s Make It Happen! If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion, I’m your girl. I’ll warm your heart with my adorable smile and keep you entertained with my goofy antics. Check out my video of me tossing my toys around — you’ll see how much fun we could have together!  Don’t let my special needs hold you back—I’m one of a kind and ready to join your family. I can’t wait to meet you!  Shadow Nose is a level 3 dog and categorized by our organization as a S.O.S. dog, meaning we will pay for any major medical issues from her disease. We will be happy to answer any questions and discuss more details upon request. For more information about Shadow Nose or to meet her, please contact: German Shepherd Rescue of Northern California P.O.

Story

Meet Ombre, an 11-month-old Akita who radiates an easygoing and sweet demeanor that captivates everyone she meets! Despite her young age, Ombre displays a maturity beyond her years, approaching life with a calm and gentle disposition. Ombre came to our shelter as a stray about 6 weeks ago. She was found with her sidekick companion, Margarita, a sweet, timid, 11-pound, 3-year old Chihuahua. Ombre is an exuberant, playful and very loving dog. She is very gentle with Margarita, so they are housed together and often hang out in the yards together. While Ombre thoroughly enjoys playing and interacting with others; she would thrive equally well in a home with or without another dog, thanks to her independent nature and friendly demeanor. Ombre's love for playtime is infectious, and her charming personality makes her a wonderful addition to any loving household ready to provide her with the care and companionship she deserves. Ombre has a beautiful coat, weighs about 40 pounds, seems quite potty trained and also very quiet in her kennel that she shares with little Margarita. Ombre is good with every dog and every person she has ever met; loves to play with soft toys and most of all, has discovered the joy of a kiddie pool in the heat! At the shelter, we often let them play together, but also separate them out. I have been taking Margarita home to play with my littles so she can build her confidence and come into her own. She is a delightful little girl (whose cherry eye will be fixed when she is spayed soon). Both Ombre and Margarita are vaccinated and will be chipped and spayed We would love to get sweet Ombre and Margarita out of the shelter so they can continue to grow and thrive in a home. Ombre and Margarita are being cared for at Yolo County Animal Services in Woodland, CA (near Davis and Sacramento Airport). For more information or to meet Ombre and Margarita, please contact: Panna at 530-902-0933 or panna.putnam708@gmail.com or the shelter at . . .

Story

Jabulani, lovingly nicknamed Jabu for short, is a sweet girl looking to affectionately nuzzle her way into your heart! This precious girl absolutely adores being in the company of her human companions. She greets everyone she meets with a curly tailed tail wag and lots of slobbery kisses. She also makes sure to show off her agile spins and funny vocalizations to wow her new friends. She is an energetic and active pup that would love to go for long walks, spend some time playing fetch in the yard, training using positive reinforcement methods, and enjoying a nice food puzzle. Jabu is also a gold medalist at tug-of-war and an expert in squeeky toys. You can see Jabu in action in this youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/j9ZpmzAYeRg Petite and beautiful at 62 pounds and 11 years, Jabu prefers to be the apple of her person's eye, for this reason she would be perfectly happy as a solo dog. This elegant and refined young lady would prefer a home without tiny little hands as she enjoys her space after meals and that can be hard for kiddos to understand. Jabu really loves her people and can be heard whining and complaining when left at home alone. With some support from our behavior team you should be able to work through her very mild separation anxiety.Overall, Jabu is a smart and bouncy girl, spinning around when she gets excited and even loves exploring the beach and dipping her paws in the ocean with her humans. This sweet girl joined us after her guardian sadly passed away unexpectedly. Are you interested in learning more about Jabulani?

Story

Hi there! My name is Timber and I'm a 2 year old, 75lbs., neutered male Husky mix. I am a goofy boy who can't help but entertain you with my amazing acrobatics! I am pretty treat motivated but you have to grab my attention first. I can't wait to get started on learning how to be the best dog I can be, and work on these strange things the staff here call manners. Did you know us dogs don't have thumbs? So, we often use our mouths to try and grab your attention, I need to work on that. While I do, I should go home to a family with kids 10+. If you have a dog, I'd love to meet him or her. I've been very friendly with other dogs as long as we have the same playstyle and they don't mind my puppy energy! Timber ID# A972308 I recently went on a field trip with a PHS volunteer! Here's how I did: Timber went on a two-hour off-site, mostly a long, steady walk. We went from Lantos along Rollins Rd. to Broadway, crossing at two crosswalks to reach the Audi/Porsche dealership, then continuing to the Rollins side of the Rosalie O’Mahony pedestrian and bicycle bridge. At multiple crosswalks after the walk signal, Timber became jumpy as walking resumed, suggesting excitement when movement restarted after waiting. Timber crossed the O’Mahony bridge without hesitation, fear, or reactivity, and was comfortable approaching the fence to calmly watch heavy 101 traffic and louder vehicles passing below. On the far side, he crossed additional crosswalks to reach the Bay Trail, where keeping him on a short leash, staying physically close, and maintaining light tension reduced his jumpiness at those crossings. The walk continued along the Bay Trail and then across Airport Blvd. into Bayside Park. Timber showed good loose-leash skills overall; however, walking with a shorter leash, gentle contact, and sometimes with my leg and his back lightly touching seemed to help him settle and enjoy the walk. Back in his dorm, Timber worked on sit, down, stay, and place, then played a brief “find it” game with kibble.Unless otherwise indicated, adoptable animals are located at our Lantos Center for Compassion at 1450 Rollins Road, Burlingame, CA 94010.

Hello! My name is Miso and I'm a spayed female, 1-year-old, Siberian Husky/Pit Bull Mix that currently weighs about 44lbs. I'm an active, affectionate gal that is known for being a total lovebug.

Hello there, I'm Astrid! I'm a 2 year old, 42 lbs., spayed female Siberian Husky mix. I'm an independent, outgoing young lady, who has opinions of her own and I'm not afraid to share them! I love going on snifari's and really enjoy the great outdoors, scratches and cuddles are great too. I'm still working on my social skills. So, for the moment it might be best if I go home with a family with teens and no resident dogs while I work on feeling more comfortable in this big place we call earth. I have been told that I'm the smartest girl in the world, I mean it makes sense; I know 'sit', 'shake', 'down', and of course Fetch!
