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!

Hi there! My name is Skye and I'm at the Santa Maria Campus. I'm a 3 year old, female, Border Collie mix who came to SB Humane in search of someone who wants a loyal companion. My goofy smile I get when I am at my happiest is infectious. With some yummy treats and gentle baby talk, I am easily won over. I enjoy rolling over to show you my belly, so you can get my favorite scratch spots. I get along well with most other dogs, and I am always ready for an adventure. My most favorite thing in the world is fetch! I always am happy to bring my person the ball, until I am too tired and decide it is time for a nap. I do great on car rides, and I am even doing well with my crate training. I walk well on leash, and I am even potty trained. You would love to add me to your family if you want a loyal, happy-go-lucky lady to keep you company everyday. 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.
