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. This is something that will need continuous work to be corrected.

Odette

Belgian Malinois Mixed Breed (Medium)

Female, 5 yrs
San Francisco, CA
Size
(when grown) -
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Odette is a cheerful and spirited Belgian Malinois who loves the outdoors and can keep up with an active lifestyle. She is gentle and affectionate, often giving sweet kisses to her fosters and handling her treats and toys with care. Playful and social, Odette enjoys the company of other dogs when properly introduced. Odette thrives when she has a job to do and appreciates a home where her humans can delegate tasks to her. She loves to stay productive but also cherishes essential snuggle time. She is well-behaved in the house, enjoys cuddling on the couch, and sleeps on the bed near the pillow. However, Odette is not suited for first-time dog owners, homes with small children, small pets, or cats due to her high prey drive. A fence might slow her down, but it won't stop her from chasing critters. Belgian Malinois are historically herding animals and can make excellent guard dogs. Odette would thrive in a home with ample space to roam and attentive humans who can provide her with the mental and physical stimulation she needs. Additionally, Odette loves camping, making her an ideal companion for outdoor adventures. She is ready to begin her forever adventure.

Story
Nugget is a special little Chihuahua mix with a heart as warm as his caramel-colored belly. At just three years old, this handsome boy has already shown remarkable resilience and intelligence, despite being a bit shy and skittish. When you first meet Nugget, you might notice his independent streak-he likes to take his time getting to know new people, often staying at a distance until he feels safe. But once you've earned his trust, you'll see a whole new side of him. When Nugget is happy, his entire body wiggles with joy, and he even makes the cutest little happy noises, especially when you come home. He's incredibly smart, responding to commands like "come, "let's go, and "in your crate, and he's especially motivated by treats-boiled chicken is a particular favorite. Though he may not always take food right away, with a little patience, Nugget will warm up and show his gentle nature. He loves his cozy dog bed and furry squeaky toys, often retreating to his safe space when he needs a break. Nugget's ideal forever home is with someone who understands the importance of giving him time, space, and reassurance. He would thrive with a patient, loving person who can spend one-on-one time with him, helping him build trust and confidence. Despite his cautious nature, Nugget has so much love to give. He's a beautiful little pup who has already blossomed in a short amount of time, showing just how kind and smart he is. With the right person, Nugget is ready to continue his journey of love and trust, bringing endless joy and wagging tails to his forever home.
