Story
He was found in a dumpster with his siblings and was adopted by us shortly after from the shelter. Very hyper active, and has extreme chewing and what I consider pica. Eats any toy we give him, any furniture he’s around including walls and window edges. I want him to go to someone who knows how to handle extreme behavior like this, because we are at our wits end as renters. Other than his behavioral issues he’s a sweet and loving dog who is very gentle with our cat. Has never shown aggression to people or other animals he has met. Can be a bit skiddish at first but always comes around to wanting to make a new friend.

Story
Meet Heidi: Professional Cuddler, Adventure Buddy, and Tennis Ball Enthusiast 🎾💕 Sweet Heidi is the total package—a loyal companion who loves equal parts adventure and couch time. Whether she's exploring the neighborhood on a walk, chasing a tennis ball at top speed, or curling up beside her favorite person, Heidi is happiest when she's spending time with her humans. This smart, affectionate girl has settled beautifully into a home environment and continues to impress everyone she meets with her eagerness to learn. Heidi already knows sit, down, come, stay, and heel, and she's fully house-trained and crate-trained. She's incredibly intuitive and quickly picks up household routines, making her an easy companion to live with. Heidi's favorite things include: 🐾 Cuddling on the couch and showering her people with kisses 🐾 Walks, outdoor adventures, and rolling in the grass 🐾 Fetch sessions with tennis balls 🐾 Enrichment toys, puzzles, and learning new things 🐾 Car rides—she's a calm and relaxed passenger 🐾 Tasty treats, especially her beloved rawhide chips Heidi is a curious girl who loves to investigate the world around her. She's very food-motivated and enjoys having a job to do, making training both fun and rewarding. Her foster reports that she's eager to please and thrives when given guidance and consistency. Like many dogs, Heidi is still building confidence in some situations. She can be vocal when meeting unfamiliar people or dogs on walks and may alert bark when someone comes to the door. The good news? She's made wonderful progress and responds well to redirection and positive reinforcement. As she settles in and builds trust with her people, these behaviors continue to improve. Heidi would love a home that can provide plenty of affection, daily walks, and opportunities to keep her active mind engaged. In return, she'll offer endless loyalty, sweet snuggles, and a best friend who's always happy to be by your side. 💖 Ready to meet your new cuddle buddy? Heidi can't wait to meet you!

Story
Bronx was adopted from the Humane Society of Silicon Valley (HSSV) on April 23, 2023. He was 11 weeks old and weighed 9.20 lbs. and presumed to be a Border Collie Mix but staff was unsure what he was mixed with. Since his adoption he has completed the required Puppy Training course provided by HSSV while also receiving continued training by his family. Bronx is potty trained, knows the basic commands (sit, stay, leave it, etc..) but could benefit from more extensive and regular training and strong leadership from pack leader or family. Bronx loves to run, fetch and socialize with other dogs and people. He has been trained to be both on and off leash and responds to commands when off leash; but keep in mind he's still a puppy and sometimes gets distracted and may need commands repeated. Bronx also can get a little over excited when it comes to meeting other dogs and people and may jump on them or at them to greet them. BRONX IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN CALIFORNIA.

Story
Max is a 5-month-old puppy with a friendly and playful personality. He enjoys playing, being around people, and has lots of energy. He is current on his rabies vaccination, deworming, and flea/tick prevention (Bravecto). He has not bitten anyone and is still young, so he will continue to benefit from training and socialization. I am looking for a loving, stable home where he will receive plenty of attention, exercise, and patience as he grows. This decision is due to changes in my family circumstances and is not because of any fault of Max's. He deserves a family that can give him the time and consistency he needs.
