Meet Pleasanton

Pleasanton – Gentle, Sweet, and Ready for a Fresh Start Pleasanton is a 5-year-old German Shepherd mix weighing 54 pounds with a calm, affectionate personality. While she's still adjusting to shelter life, volunteers consistently describe her as gentle, attentive, and easy to spend time with. Affectionate companion: Pleasanton enjoys pets and scratches, often leaning into affection and seeking out gentle interaction from people she trusts. Thoughtful explorer: She enjoys leisurely walks, sniffing her surroundings, and checking in with her handler along the way. Smart and food-motivated: Pleasanton knows "sit," takes treats enthusiastically, and enjoys learning through positive reinforcement. Easygoing with other dogs: She has shown a calm, independent social style with other dogs and may do well with an appropriately matched canine companion or as a solo dog in the home. Pleasanton would love a patient home where she can continue to gain confidence and settle into the next chapter of her life.
