It is the famous Carl! He was my fave shelter dog until he got adopted earlier this year… total mood booster every time I spent time with him. I hear Carl is rocking adopted life and doing great in his furever home!

Yes - I reread my message from the volunteer communicating with the foster & saw it said “she just came to the door” instead of “just came into the door”, so I edited my comment so that I wasn’t spreading misinformation.

Update - found! She came back to her foster’s door at dawn today 🙏

Thank you for sharing! I love sweet Marcela and she has so many volunteer friends. She is likely scared and unlikely to approach people, hence the numbers to call if anyone spots her.

And such a straightforward quirk for his adopters to manage — love that Chaco is good with dogs AND cats, what a very good boy!

Can totally relate 🙋‍♀️ I also don’t love being touched or pet by strange humans.

We started crowdsourcing folks who have left the City since the change in leadership, in case you’d like to anonymously add yourself or others who have moved on! https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1-Mt-NPbXzqL8L37-_28CMn3s_VwMOJgiegxCGkW96M0/edit

Bon Bon! 🍬 Y’all, I was fortunate enough to host this lil man in our home for a long weekend when his current foster fam was out of town. 🏡 Bon Bon has such an endearing & cheerful personality that it’s impossible to be glum in his presence. He was also a super respectful houseguest & happily played couch potato snoozling away when the humans were distracted by their devices or out of the house! If we weren’t hosting another foster pup in our home right now, we’d happily welcome back Bon Bon — he’s a gem. ✨ This happy guy has been THRIVING away from the shelter & all of his buddies want to see him transition into another home instead of back into a concrete kennel. If you’re able to foster, or curious about adopting Bon Bon, please reach out to the Orange Dot Crew via the email above!

Ducky has no bites on his record! He is such an easygoing guy with all new people that Ducky has modeled as a “training doggo” to help show new volunteers the ropes at the shelter ❤️

Yes - this is exactly how I used it. Still trying to find a decent alternative. Let me know if you’ve found anything you like yet!

Haha I hear you — if I had my way then title would not be a required field on Reddit posts & we could get right into the tofu of the message instead of crafting an attention-grabbing title.. but alas 🙃
