7mo old Boo is slated for euthanasia tomorrow at Stockton Animal Shelter due to capacity and space needed. She is dog social, and would likely thrive in a home with another playful dog but is not necessary. Is very submissive and shy with first meet of people, but with a little time comes right out of her shell and is nothing but typical puppy craziness. The shelter halted intake and will resume intake on June 5th due to strep zoo. Boo has shown no symptoms and is deemed safe for adoption and foster. She will be sent with antibiotics for additional precautions. Medical, food and supplies all covered through SSPA. Time is running out, if interested in fostering please submit an application asap! If interested in adopting Boo contact the shelter. ❤️🐶

Some adorable cuteness to start your Friday morning! Willow’s umbilical hernia repair surgery has been healing like a champ so this beauty will be available soon! Her foster family has been working with her on confidence building, crate and house training, and more importantly learning how to be a dog in a much bigger world than she was ever exposed too. Willow will be joining us at the facility tomorrow for socialization fun and we can’t wait to love on her. ❤️🐶

🚨🚨🚨 7-month-old dog-social pup Boo is in jeopardy of euthanasia at a shelter on Friday. Best guess - which we always know is never all that accurate - is that she’s some sort of herding dog with possibly pit bull. She is very soft at first meet; after she feels safe she is all sort of puppy antics. She would do best in a home with another playful dog to show her how to dog. Stockton shelter has had an outbreak of strep zoo and she will be sent home with antibiotics as a precaution. 📢 Committed foster needed! Please do not comment you will foster, and please don’t clog our inbox. Serious inquiries only. Fill out our foster app: https://sspetsalive.org/fostering/

This Memorial Day, we honor every service member — including the four-legged heroes who served beside them. 🇺🇸

Sergeant Stubby was once a stray dog. He went on to save countless lives during World War I and became one of America’s most decorated war dogs.

A reminder that even the overlooked can become heroes. ❤️🐾

😍 Watch to see adoptable shortstack Delphine enjoying a pup cup! This girl loves being with the big dogs! She’s a 1.5-year-old with a huge heart, fun personality and some uncertainty about the big world around her! Confident, playful large dogs are the ultimate confidence booster for her, and she finds the world to be not nearly as overwhelming with a big friend that has her back. She becomes your bff and shadow once you gain her trust (give her 15 mins)! She really is the sweetest, most loving, silly gal!
