East Bay Pets of the Week for August 30

Hi, I’m Poncho! I’m a cute orange ball ready to settle into my new home! I’m the perfect mix of playful and relaxed: I love lounging under sunny windows and sharing sweet cuddles if you’re up for it. But I never turn down a good jump off a cat tree to get to grips with my toys! With my big, eccentric personality, I’d thrive in a home with people who know cats and appreciate my unique charm and let me be myself! Visit the Berkeley-East Bay Humane Society website at berkeleyhumane.org to learn more and schedule a meeting with me.

Dino, the goofy and happy little one, is looking for a best friend to share all of life’s adventures with. This 2-year-old dog is enthusiastic about the world, with his cheesy expressions and big flops that will have you laughing 24/7. He also enjoys a long nap and a cuddle after playing to his heart’s content. Dino is a little shy around new animals and people, but once he knows you’re cool, you’ll be his best friend! Meet Dino at our Dublin adoption center. The East Bay SPCA offers walk-in adoptions at its Oakland and Dublin campuses from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Wednesday through Sunday. For up-to-date, real-time information on EBSPCA programs and offerings, visit eastbayspca.org/adoptions.

Enzo is a highly motivated young Border Collie looking for a family who knows the breed.

He is intelligent and athletic and would be a great candidate for agility training. Contact the staff at Milo Point Richmond for assistance from 11am to 5pm except Tuesdays at 220 S. Garrard Blvd. in Richmond. Our dedicated staff is on duty daily to care for our animals and has saved over 50,000 lives in 30 years. For more information, visit milofoundation.org/contact-us.

Chili, the world’s cutest dog, is a 1 1/2-year-old border collie mix. How she ended up in an animal shelter is baffling to say the least. From there, Chili went to a foster home who has nothing but good things to say about her. She is crate trained, gets along well with other dogs in her home, sleeps on a dog bed on the floor or a human bed when allowed. She loves everyone, big and small. For more information on Chili or any other adoptable animals from the Contra Costa SPCA, call Pat at 925-323-0667.
