Story
Through no fault of her own, Samantha has been in our shelter for more than a year after being found as a stray. She is incredibly resilient, living in a kennel month after month, and we are honored to care for her. But she needs a home. Take a close look at this deserving little pittie. Perhaps you'll see what we do: the best smiling face, the happiest attitude, the bubbliest personality. Can you imagine waking up to this pure doggie joy every day? She's a smiler who seems to revel in life, a dog who sees the glass as half full. The word wigglebutt was invented for Samantha. She's been in a shelter for so long, she has been quite nervous in a couple of her foster homes, barking at noises and people she doesn't know. But she settles down with patience. Samantha's reactivity toward other animals has improved, but she should be your only pet until she receives further training to leave cats and small dogs alone. * 2 years, 4 months old * small for her breed * easy to walk * lots of fun * loves people * Good with kids * should be only fur child Apply on our website, and call (510) 337-8565 to make an appointment. If she is not in a foster home, you may meet Samantha any afternoon except Monday at 1590 Fortmann Way in Alameda, California. Her adoption fee has already been paid for by an admirer, so you owe nothing!

Story
Summer days will never end with this carefree pup by your side. 3-year-old Summer likes long walks, splashing in the water, and rolling in the grass. She also likes nibbling on toys, sniffing new smells, and keeping close tabs on her beloved tennis ball. She ignores other dogs in passing but does not like them in close quarters. * Loving personality * Very playful * Adults-only forever home * No other pets in home Here's what Summer's foster mom had to say: * Very sweet! Leans in for scratches. * LOVES balls. She’s great at running during a game of fetch, but hasn’t learned to give the ball back. She’d prefer to chew on it! * Like many salon-phobic pets, she's not crazy about having her paws touched. You'll get a polite little warning snap. Come meet Summer at 1590 Fortmann Way in Alameda any day but Monday and Tuesday from noon to 4PM.

Story
Do you suffer from social anxiety? Maybe you can relate to Cusco, a dog so painfully shy he would rather run than meet new people! "It's pure panic," says our trainer Leah, about his reaction to prospective adopters. "Fleeing on leash, lunging and yanking trying to get away." And yet Cusco is just the best pup, once over that initial hurdle, a warm and loving dog wanting to play, snuggle, and make eyes at you. He loves playing with his trusted dog friends. Here's what his foster mom had to say about Cusco: "We got to have Cusco stay with us for a week, and he’s such a sweet boy! During the day, he liked to play with our other dog, and they ripped up a few toys together. In the evenings, he loved to cuddle on the couch and with our other dog if she would join us. At night, he slept in his crate, and we didn’t hear a peep! He warmed up to me really quickly but was still a little frightened of my husband. Our dog gets jealous, and he was very easygoing with her. Any loud sounds in the house would send him running, but he didn’t have any issues on our walks. He’s going to be such a great family member when he finds his people. He will take a little bit to feel comfortable, but it’s worth the effort!" Cusco's Cheat Sheet: * Skittish around strangers, loud noises * Wriggly, friendly and happy-go-lucky with familiar people * Adults-only home ideal but mature teens ok * Has separation anxiety; needs crate training. * Likes other friendly dogs he's allowed to get to know * No cats FAAS's free canine behavior training classes can help Cusco reach his full potential. Free classes come with his adoption. Once he finds his groove with you, we're certain Cusco will overcome his fears. Bring your big friendly dog with you to meet him at our 1590 Fortmann Way location any afternoon but Mondays or Tuesdays and get started on an incredibly rewarding adventure!

Hi, I'm Nova! I'm a busy girl- I have places to go and people to see! But once I get somewhere, I love to chill with my person, leaning into back scratches and enjoying the sniffs. As you could guess, I am just as playful as I am affectionate, always ready to run, jump, and explore. To my core, I'm just a lover looking for a partner to adventure and explore the world with.My large size only means I have more to give - more cuddles, more enthusiasm, and more joy! I'd love to find a human who can match my energy and help me burn off this zest for life. I'm very eager to learn and will work for treats, so with some training and structure, I can be the best companion you could ever ask for!
