Story
Hi! My name is Obi and I'm at the Santa Barbara Campus. I'm a 3 year-old, male, Australian Shepherd/Belgian Tervuren Mix who came to SB Humane to find my new home! Looking for a photo buddy? I am a very photogenic, bouncy boy who loves physical affection. I will sit on your lap like I'm the size of a cat but it is all love. I get along great with other dogs of any size and do great on car rides as I'm still adjusting. With all of my great features comes one we need to work on which is leash training but no worries our Santa Barbara Humane training center is here to help. Interested in meeting me? Adoption Centers are open daily 12-4:30pm, closed Wednesdays. Adoptions are on a first-come first served basis. For more information please email Adopt@SBHumane.org or call 805-964-4777. When I am adopted, I will have been spayed or neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. My adopters will receive a certificate for a free veterinary exam and our partners at Purina will provide a supply of food for my first few days at home. Our adoption fees help support our community programs and the next animal who needs our help!

Sweet Murray! This boy is a one year old tricolor Aussie, very striking looking and as loving as he is gorgeous. Not only is he handsome; he's also easygoing and loving. He's basically a big goofy older puppy. Murray plays really well with other dogs. He's also a lover with people. He's probably too rowdy for little kids. And we don't know how he is with cats. Murray is vaccinated, neutered, microchipped, and ready to be your best friend!
