Story

Rocky is a sweet boy who is full of energy and loves to play. He is healthy and strong and will do best in a home where he will get a lot of exercise and activity. We adopted him during Covid and, although we love him, we have come to realize that he is frustrated living in an apartment without a yard. He is a mixed breed Australian Cattle dog and Labrador Retriever, so he is a "working" breed and requires more stimulation than we are able to give.

Story

How Lika arrived: Lika was brought in by a community member on November 8, 2025. Why Lika is the one for you:Meet Lika, a sweet and sensitive girl in search of a loving new home! Lika can be a bit shy and wary of handling, so she's looking for patient and understanding people who are willing to let her open up at her own pace. She thrives best with calm, respectful interactions and a home that won't rush or push her before she's ready. With time and trust, Lika is able to form meaningful bonds and show her affectionate, gentle nature. She does well with other dogs, though she may show some resource guarding that will need mindful management. Lika would do best in a cat-free home due to her strong chasing instincts, and in a household with older children only (12+). With the right environment and compassionate guidance, Lika has all the potential to blossom into a loyal and devoted companion! At SDHS:Lika has been vaccinated, microchipped and spayed. Lika is now ready for their new home! Primary Color: White Secondary Color: Black Weight: 47.8

Tilly's intelligence and enthusiasm make her a wonderful companion for an active, thoughtful home. Come speak to an adoption counselor to learn more about her today!

Story

How this pet arrived: Marcello was brought in by our Humane Law Enforcement team on November 4, 2025. Why this pet is the one for you:Meet Marcello! Marcello is a sweet, affectionate goofball who loves his people and enjoys calm, happy moments together. He loves playing with toys, will bring the ball back to you for a game of fetch and will climb into your lap for a cuddle sesh! He's also a bit of a sensitive guy who appreciates gentle handling and clear communication, so he's looking for a quiet, adult-only home (kids 14+) where he can feel safe and understood. He's had positive interactions on walks with other dogs and is already showing how smart he is by rocking the early stages of muzzle training using positive reinforcement. He also knows "sit", "down" and "paw"! Marcello will do best with a dedicated dog owner who enjoys training and helping this handsome boy build confidence in exchange for a rewarding bond! With patience and kindness, Marcello is sure to be your new best buddy. Ask about adopting today! At SDHS:Marcello has been vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. He is now ready for his new home!
