Story
Beans is three years old. He was adopted through a breeder. He is super energetic, incredibly sweet and loving, not very aggressive. Unfortunately, he is not getting the attention and love he deserves and currently suffers from separation anxiety. Beans needs a home where he will be loved and attended for every day. He loves going for walks and sniffing everything! He grew up in a townhouse up until 8 months and lived in an apartment for 2 years. He is back in the townhouse, but we unfortunately cannot fulfill all his needs at this time. I need to stress that Beans requires a lot of patience and time, he is a very vocal dog with anxiety. He requires someone who will be willing to strictly train him and give him a lot of time to help him become more independent.

Midnight

Mutt

Male, Puppy
Union City, CA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Midnight is a 7-month-old playful pup! He loves going on walks, playing fetch, and relaxing with his family. His favorite toys are empty Gatorade bottles. He is potty trained and sleeps through the night in a small gated area. He is loving and affectionate with children. Midnight's ideal owner lives an active lifestyle, taking Midnight on walks and jogs, and spending lots of quality time with him. His owner should be strong because Midnight weighs almost 50 pounds and likes to lead the way when he smells something interesting. He makes an excellent watchdog as he feels responsible for protecting his family. He can be slow to warm up at first due to his protective instincts but he has a huge heart and will quickly melt your heart with his sweet hugs and silly antics. He is also incredibly intelligent and has passed basic dog training. Does Midnight sound like your forever pet? If so, don't hesitate to contact us today!

Sampson (called Sam)

German Shepherd Dog

Male, Adult
San Leandro, CA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Sam is about 7 years old and was found through a private party. He is purebred but not registered. I am looking for an adopter who can take him on hikes and runs since he has a lot of energy and unfortunately I am no longer able to provide him with enough exercise. He can be stubborn so I think he would do best with a man. He has had training but could use a refresher on it. He loves people but is a barker.
