Story
FOSTER CARE! Hi there, I'm Zero! I'm a 5 month old, neutered male German Shepherd/Husky mix that currently weighs 26lbs. but I'm still growing and could be around 60-70lbs. when I'm and adult. I'm a sweet and energetic little puppy that loves attention and snacks. I'm super playful and ready to learn, which is perfect because I have lots of learning to do with a family familiar with working breeds who is ready to provide lots of exercise, training, socialization, and love!   Zero ID#A954079 From my foster home: I'm doing great! I love playing with my foster sister, a Mini-Aussie, and though I'm curious about the resident cat, I'm keeping a respectful distance from him since he doesn't want to play. My fosters say I'm wonderful on walks and very smart! I also live with a 9 year old (human) and I've been really gentle with her! I went to Fort Funston and loved walking on the beach! I do really well in the car, no whining or complaining from me More big news: I've been an absolute star with housetraining. My foster mom says I'm fully potty trained, and I'll use my doggy door or sit by the front door when I need to use the restroom. I also know sit and lie down, and I'm learning 'off.' Since I’m not at the adoption center, you can make arrangements to meet me by emailing your fully completed Adoption Profile Form to behavior@phs-spca.org and a staff member will call you to conduct a phone interview before making an appointment to meet me in person. You must be 18 or older to submit a profile.  Application: https://phs-spca.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/AdoptionProfiles_dog2023_fillin.pdf *The application may not work on mobile devices and iPads. Please call (650) 340-7022 for assistance.Unless otherwise indicated, adoptable animals are located at our Lantos Center for Compassion at 1450 Rollins Road, Burlingame, CA 94010.  You may call us at 650-340-7022 to schedule an appointment, or just drop by. Drop-In hours for Same Day Adoptions are 11 am – 5 pm, 7 days a week (closed major holidays).

Story
Nala is a very sensitive and calm dog. Unforeseen health concerns have forced me to be stuck in a toxic and unhealthy living situation with a family member and, although I would prefer to not rehome Nala, I want to get her out of this situation and into a safer living arrangement. She is very active and loves to play fetch, among other playful/active pursuits. My ideal owner/home for Nala would be with someone who lives an active lifestyle and can give Nala the exercise and play that she needs. My health concerns have reduced my ability to care for Nala which has impacted my desire to work more on training (her main issue is off-leash recall) as well as get her out into the world more often to explore and experience new environments as well as have other canine friends she can meet and socialize with on a regular basis. Nala is super easy going and has never presented any problems when it comes to bathing and caring for her. I have more to say but had to edit down for word count limit.

Story
I adopted Cooper in 2020 from the SPCA when they estimated him to be 2 yrs old. Cooper is a lover with anyone he knows and trusts but has severe anxiety issues and fear based reactivity on leash. He is very protective of his loved ones which is both a benefit and a challenge at times. He loves cuddling and wearing sweaters and overall is not a high energy dog. He is also very smart and strong headed like most shepherds. Cooper needs routine and predictability which has made city life very challenging for him. He gets along well, even sometimes great with some dogs and with others he really struggles. He has not spent much time around kids but I would not recommend it without experienced knowledge of dog reactivity. Absolutely no cats. I'd love to see him find a home that can stimulate his drive to work

Story
Zoe is a sweet older Shepherd-mix who recently returned to us after a few years in a home. She is very affectionate and relaxed, and was said to do enjoy the company of all humans, especially children. She loves to lounge about the house receiving pets, but also loves going on long walks, rolling in the grass, and sometimes you can even convince her to play fetch with a frisbee! While back in the shelter, we’ve been helping her work on her reactivity to other dogs, on which she’s made great progress. This lovely lady won’t disappoint! Come meet her today and see if it’s a match. Foster-to-Adopt!Think you and Zoe might be a match, but you want to do a trial run at home first?You can foster Zoe—meaning you’ll take them home for one week with the intention of adopting them at the end of their stay. If things don’t work out, you can always bring them back to us. If you’re interested, come see us or contact us at adoptions@sfspca.org to learn more.
