My story

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

How this pet arrived:
This pet was brought in by a community member.

Why this pet is the one for you:
Meet Zipper, a one-year-old male pup searching for a patient and understanding home! Zipper has a history of being fearful, so he'll need a calm environment and a family willing to help him build confidence at his own pace. Due to his needs, he's best suited for a home without young children, and kids 12 and older are required.

With time, structure, and positive reinforcement, Zipper has the potential to blossom into a wonderful companion. He thrives on trust and consistency and will benefit from slow introductions to new situations. This smart boy would enjoy engaging activities and training to keep his mind and body active. If you're ready to provide the love and patience Zipper needs, he's eager to meet you!

At SDHS:
This pet has been vaccinated, microchipped and spayed/neutered. This pet is now ready for their new home!

More about this shelter

San Diego Humane Society, an open-admission shelter, is creating a more humane world by inspiring compassion and advancing the welfare of animals and people. Our lifesaving safety net has helped San Diego become the largest city in the U.S. to keep healthy and treatable shelter animals from being euthanized. We are a private, independent, nonprofit organization that is not affiliated with any other humane society or society for the prevention of cruelty to animals.

With campuses in El Cajon, Escondido, Oceanside, Ramona and San Diego, we provide animal services for 14 cities within San Diego County. We not only care for 50,000 animals in our communities but also share the expertise we have gained through our innovative programs with shelters nationwide so they can save more lives in their communities.

While our influence is expanding nationally, our top priority is meeting the needs of San Diego. We provide exceptional care for all animals through world-class veterinary medicine, shelter and most of all: love.
