Story
Hi there! Nice to meet you, I`m Bentley and I am the perfect young gentleman. I came to the shelter as a stray just before Thanksgiving and spent the last 2.5 months with what I hoped was my forever family. Sadly, they had to move and could not take me with them. So here I am, back at Front Street in search of a family who will love me as much I promise to love them. At just over a year old, I am told I am pretty darn mellow. I love nothing more than to snuggle up and laze around. My previous family reports I am potty-trained, although keep in mind in a new environment, I may have an accident or two. I am almost crate trained, although I prefer to be with my humans as much as possible. I am reported to do well around other dogs, but I would do better in a home with no cats. I have also enjoyed the company of children, but please remember a slow and proper introduction to anyone and anything new is important.Please remember that the shelter is a stressful environment; many dogs come to Front Street as strays without any known history. While staff and volunteers do their best to learn about each dog, behavior in the shelter is not always the same as behavior in a home. Keeping the 3/3/3 Decompression Rule in mind is important. Three days for initial decompression, three weeks to learn the routines of your household, and three months to start to feel relaxed and safe in the home. When you adopt, foster, or are a new pet parent, it`s especially important to consider*** Bentley`s adoption fee has been paid for with a donation from a community member ***

Story
This handsome and energetic young boi is Travis. A 6-month old neutered pit bull mix. He`s a friendly pup with energy to spare looking for a home that matches his intensity level. He sleeps through the night, and is crate and potty trained. He gets along with cats. He is primed for structure and training and will respond well to it, when paired with love and encouragement. Are you up to the task?

Hi my name is Matt and my daughter found her in a school bathroom. When we found her, she had signs of her being abused and starved. We took her and she’s the sweetest dog ever, however I rent a house and I can't keep her. I hope you take a moment to see her and see how friendly she is. If I owned my own place, I would surely keep her. She's on a list to be surrendered at the SPCA and I'd rather she find a good home.

Super sweet and loving. Everyone loves and adores him. He is super gentle and full of excitement when he sees his humans. He has been raised around little kids, over dogs and cats. He is a huge cuddle bug and just loves being on bed next to his loved ones. Potty trained and a great listener to commands. Easy to walk.

Story
*Courtesy post - If interested please contact the owner at (916) 704-2138 or ferng9040@gmail.com*  Fearless is a sweet boy who is 3 years old.He's a pit bull mixed with a german shepard so he's a big dog. He's very playful but grew up untrained and will jump on you when he's excited. Fearless has lived with other dogs, but would really prefer to be the only dog in your home. He's been an outdoor dog the majority of his life but quite sweet.  *Courtesy post - If interested please contact the owner at (916) 704-2138 or ferng9040@gmail.com*  All animals are up-to-date on vaccinations (including rabies if over 4 months old), microchipped, and spayed or neutered. All dogs have been been vaccinated with DHPP and Bordatella (kennel cough) and heartworm tested negative (if over 6 months).    All cats have been vaccinated with FVRCP and current on flea control.

My name is Butterscotch Sundae!Wanna know why? Because I am the sweetest girl ever, that`s why! I love everyone I meet. I`m very easy to leash and walk and a couple people have noted I`m very good at paying attention and making eye contact. I know many commands too! I`ll work for treats, and have been known to steal a treat stash if I find it lying on the ground. I am a good girl overall though and very affectionate. Please come meet me and I will be the sweetest treat you`ve ever met!
