Lilah is a very shy and sensitive girl who’s still learning that the world can be a safe and loving place.

Once she feels safe, her heart shines through, and she’ll want nothing more than to stay right by your side. Lilah is looking for a calm, compassionate home that will give her the time she needs to come out of her shell and see just how much love the world has for her.

Story
Meet Paco, a sweet and resilient older dog with nothing but love to give. When Paco first arrived with us, he was in rough shape—underweight, dehydrated, and weak. But with a little TLC, a lot of snacks, and a nice comfy bed, he's made incredible progress and is now ready for a home that will continue to shower him with affection and give him the care he truly deserves to live the rest of his life in luxury. He is a lover at heart, always eager to offer gentle affection to everyone he meets, and Paco’s calm, easygoing nature makes him the perfect companion for leisurely strolls, cozy cafe dates, or simply curling up for a cuddle. He may prefer to take life at a slow and steady pace, but that just means he cherishes every moment spent by your side, savoring the simple joys of loving and being loved. Paco is just waiting for the right person to share in his kindness and to spoil him with the love he’s been craving. If you're looking for a loyal, loving companion to add a little extra sweetness to your life, Paco just might be the one.

Story
Kay is a lovely girl who has been coming out of her shell and is turning into a social pup. She bonds quickly to humans and likes to stay very close. She doesn’t seem to have any issues with other dogs, and passes them calmly, as long as they don't get too close to her preferred human friend. She is friendly and loving, and will make a great addition to just about any home. Kay is currently in a foster home. If you're interested in her, please email KSwanson@cityofberkeley.info First, we'll set up a virtual meeting with their current foster family via phone, Zoom, or Facetime, to provide you with more detailed information. Then, if you feel that Kay might be a good adoption fit, shelter staff will gladly coordinate an up-close and personal meet and greet with your potential family member. Thank you for your support! • I’ve been at the shelter for 30 days or more and weigh over 35 pounds, so the Friends of Berkeley Animal Care Services (FoBACS) have SPONSORED MY ADOPTION FEE! I’m a great dog who just needs a chance, and I’m ready to prove that big dogs make the best dogs!
