East Bay pets of the week for June 21
Area shelters’ dogs and cats need their "forever" homes.
Hello, I’m Blossom! I’m a sweet but shy flower searching for a patient home to boost my confidence. With TLC and time, I’ll show my curious, affectionate side. I enjoy finding sunny spots and relaxing with you while watching shows. I need an experienced owner in a quiet home without young children to thrive. Visit the website of the Berkeley-East Bay Humane Society at berkeleyhumane.org to learn more and schedule a meeting with me.

Samantha radiates joy despite the fact that the 2-year-old sweet girl has been at our shelter for a major chunk of her lifespan. She’s a very positive dog, and her longtime shelter residency doesn’t get in the way of her happiness. Samantha approaches almost every moment with enthusiasm, and enjoys life with a gusto that’s contagious. She’s also silly, gentle and incredibly loving. Adopt Samantha and her tailor-made PJs come along with her! To meet this pet at Friends of the Alameda Animal Shelter, call 510-337-8565 or visit alamedaanimalshelter.org/adopt.

Joe is a 5-year-old male German Shepard. This dog is so sweet. He’s polite, good on a leash, housebroken and rides well in a car. Shake, sit, down … say those commands fast cause Joe almost reads your mind and beats you to it. He loves standing with his paws on my shoulders. So gentle. His energy level is moderate and he plays well with other dogs. For more information about Joe or any other adoptable pets with the Contra Costa SPCA, call Pat at 925-323-0667.
