Hello! My name is Blitz.I am a big, sweet boy, who is need of a strong leader. I am a dopey boy who takes direction well when given properly. The humans here use positive reinforcement and it has been working for me. I have become much better about my bad habits and do not have many left, excpet for greeting you with jumps. This behavior is easily corrected and I learn through consistency. There are a few toys that are my favorite and I LOVE to play with them! I CAN NOT go home with other animals. I must be the only pet. If you are looking for a big and sweet boy like me, please email my friends @ sjadopt@sanjoseca.gov ; I am accepting appointments on a `first available, first serve` basis.When you email please include my ID # A1196166 your name, phone number, and date(s) and time(s) you`re available to visit me.-Blitz02/09/21 13:46Reason animal needs rescue: bit staff member Date off Quarantine: date removed Type: BehaviorDate animal needs rescue by: date removed *AVegaImpound type: StrayAdditional notes: While ACA was placing dog back in kennel, dog was very hyper and active and started being mouthy on arm.

Notes from Shelter Volunteer:Champ is really sweet. I was able to bear hug him and he did great - he wasn`t tense. He has been pretty mellow. Walks well on the leash, non-reactive to dogs in the yard. When he doesn`t know you at first, he will not cooperate with you in returning him back to his kennel. But once he knows you, I`ve had no issues. 03/10/21 15:08Reason animal needs rescue: Unable to complete full handling Type: BehaviorDate animal needs rescue by: (date removed)Impound type: StrayAdditional notes: When in kennel, avoids looking at handler and runs into the back of the kennel. Tail tucked, low posture. Able to leash and take out fine after halfing off kennel, pulls hard on leash, urinates multiple times in courtyard. Body stays tense even after giving him some time to adjust. Seems more intersted in enviornment.ATrujillo03/16/21 15:47 Now passing behavior ATrujillo03/16/21 16:22Needs rescue due to mass on left side of chest, back of neck and base of tail.

Shelter Volunteer Notes:Cujo is potty trained. Tends to get hot so he will drink a ton of water. He doesn`t like cats. He`s non-reactive to other dogs. He likes to explore when in the yard. Does well on a leash. Since he`s an older dog, there are times when he can be set in his ways (such as not wanting to play). He will do better in a house without small kids that may play rough or antagonize him.Cujo will pull when walking to smell or mark, likes to mark a lot. Will fetch ball but doesn`t like to give it up. Will randomly bark / is vocal.03/08/21 12:48Reason animal needs rescue: skin masses left eyelid, belly, under tailType: Medical Impound type: OSAdditional notes: Owner can`t care for them/elderlyKTyson03/12/21 12:583 masses removed, awaiting lab results.

Notes From Shelter Volunteers:This petite pittie, Darling, needs some extra time and love. She is not totally comfortable with affection until she trusts you are friendly. She needs to trust you and time will give her that confidence. She gave me a hug today once she trusted me. She is interested in high value treats only! She is pretty independent since she has lived her life that way. She will need time to grow into her shell but I know she will bring love and happiness to her new home.03/29/21 18:24Reason animal needs rescue: skin infection on ventral abdomen and at perivulvar region.Type: MedicalImpound type: StrayKVuong03/29/21 18:34Extracted 2 incisors.KVuong show less

Notes from Shelter Volunteers:Gloria has lots of energy. She is highly vocal/bark at other dogs to entice them to play with her. She tends to play rough, by jumping on you. I don`t recommend her in a household of little kids. She can also be mouthy with humans. She will need regular exercise and training. show less
