Happy October! As the leaves change and the air turns crisp, it’s the perfect time to open your heart and home to a furry friend.


October is National Adopt A Shelter Dog Month, and here at the Humane Society of Sonoma County (HSSC), we have an amazing group of dogs ready to find their forever families!

Roan

Roan is no longer considered a puppy, but she is full of cute puppy behaviors: bouncy, snuggly, active, and getting into everything!

Welcome Tippy, the 45lb adolescent shepherd mix. She’s a fetch fanatic and a toy enthusiast. Whether she’s zooming around after a ball or showing off her impressive smarts by learning new tricks, Tippy is always up for an adventure.

Tippy

Bestie

Meet Bestie, a striking 57-pound Shepherd-Husky mix with beautiful, natural “eyeliner” that highlights her stunning eyes. This gorgeous girl is full of energy and ready to find an active family to keep up with her adventurous spirit.

Dynamite

Dandelion

Dragon

Meet Dynamite, Dandelion, and Dragon—three spunky 5-month-old pups who are ready to light up your life!


With energy to spare and a love for all things fun, these playful goofballs are always on the move, bouncing from one game to the next. Whether it's zoomies in the yard or chasing after toys, these pups are the ultimate adventure buddies! They don't need to go home together, but they’d each thrive in an active home where playtime never ends and training can keep them on their paws.


Ready for a lifetime of tail wags and puppy shenanigans? These three are!

Birthday Love for Our

Long-Termers! 🎉


This month, we’re thrilled to highlight Jessica, who decided to celebrate her birthday in a truly special way! Instead of gifts for herself, she chose to sponsor adoptions for our long-term residents at the Humane Society of Sonoma County. Adoptable dogs like ASPEN!


Thank you, Jessica, for your incredible kindness! You’ve shown us that celebrating can take many forms, and your love for our long-termers is truly heartwarming. Happy birthday from all of us at HSSC! 🎂❤️

LONG TERM RESIDENTS

SUGAR CRUSH

Sugar Crush has been at HSSC for 250+ days,

 a little over 8 months!


This powerhouse loves nothing more than a good game of fetch-he’ll chase that ball like he’s competing in the Dog Olympics. Despite his muscular frame, Sugar Crush has a funny quirk: he genuinely believes he’s a lap dog. Yes, he’ll plop himself down on you with all the grace of a sumo wrestler, but with the heart of a teddy bear.

STARLIGHT

Starlight has been at HSSC for 70+ days!


Be dazzled by Starlight, a beautiful 40-pound dog with mesmerizing, differently colored eyes. This athletic and intelligent pup loves to stay active, especially when toys and balls are involved. Starlight’s friendly nature makes her a hit with people and other dogs alike, ensuring she’s the perfect companion for both play and relaxation.

ASPEN

Aspen has been at HSSC for 90+ days!


Aspen is an adorable and affectionate husky mix looking for his forever home! He’s gorgeous and knows it and has that typical husky confidence and sass. Just look at those stunning eyes! He has a fantastic singing voice and loves to talk with you.
