My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

My Adoption Fee is Waived!
Meet Diesel! He is a shelter team favorite and one of the most affectionate hunks you will ever meet! Diesel came into the shelter at an unhealthy weight of 104 pounds, but with lots of walks and exercise, he is now at a healthy 88 pounds. Diesel loves to give and receive affection. When you tell him he is a good boy, he gives you the biggest smile with all the booty wiggles.He recently got to go on a doggie day out with a volunteer, and they shared these notes: LOVES Pupcup,Did well on a 3.5-mile hike,Enjoyed car naps and loves to stick his head out the window,Chilling at home was no problem,Super potty trained, so that`s one less thing to worry about,Certified snuggle bug,Bath time was a breeze, so he probably loves water too,Dog, squirrel, or duck reactive? Nope! Bike reactive? Yep! Puller? Medium pull, but responds to correction. Diesel would be the perfect mix of playful yet lazy on the couch most of the time. Please come meet this wiggle bug; he will be your best friend for life! :)
Come see more photos of me here:

Diesel has participated in shelter playgroups and may enjoy a compatible canine friend in his new home. He would probably do best with female dogs only. Looking for a buddy for your dog? Bring him/her to the shelter for a meet and greet and see if we`re a match! Check out his playgroup video here:

To meet me, visit the Bradshaw Animal Shelter Tuesday-Sunday, Noon - 5:00 pm, Wednesdays, Noon - 6:00 pm. All adoptions are on a first-come, first-served basis. To help expedite the meet and greet process, please make note of my Animal ID number, and those of other dogs you might be interested in meeting. Be sure to bring your ID with you, too. We are located at 3839 Bradshaw Road, Sacramento. I look forward to getting to know you!
