Meet Solobino

Check this boy out Solobino is a stunning looking 4 year old German Shepherd mix weighing 66 pounds, and even looks wont save him sadly - he desperately needs a hero. Despite being a truly sweet boy, he has been failed over and over again.

When you first meet him, Solobino can come on a little strong, but give him a few minutes and youll discover an affectionate, lovable dog who just wants connection and lots of affection. He leans in for attention, enjoys being with people, and has so much love to give. He also comes in and out of his kennel very easily!

The saddest part? Solobino has a microchip. Shelter staff were able to trace it back to his original owner, but after moving away and apparently he was rehomed, and now nobody is coming for him

Solobino has been tested multiple times with other dogs and did well with both males and females. He can be a bit dominant or stiff with some males, so a confident female dog may be his best match. HOWEVER as always, slow introductions are key for long term success!!!

The adoption process

Adopting through FOAC

These are FOAC’s general policies. Your adoption review will cover this pet’s specific care.

About FOAC

FOAC is a mostly volunteer nonprofit helping pets since 2001 in Sonora, Tuolumne County and nearby communities. We ease shelter overcrowding, support animals’ medical and social needs, and help people unable to keep their pets.

Applying and meeting

Submit FOAC’s application even after a Petfinder inquiry or adopter profile. We review your household and animal interest, then discuss next steps. Applying neither reserves an animal nor guarantees adoption.

Most pets live with foster families, receiving companionship while we learn their needs. Arrange your meeting with FOAC after applying and before visiting.

Veterinary care

FOAC provides care appropriate to age and needs: vaccinations, rabies vaccination when age-appropriate, heartworm testing for dogs, and feline leukemia (FeLV) and feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) testing for cats.

Spay/neuter and vouchers

Spay/neuter happens before adoption when possible. Puppies and kittens may leave before surgery because of age or timing. FOAC provides a voucher; adopters must arrange surgery.

Other outstanding required care also receives a voucher. The team explains that care and your responsibilities.
