About Sombra

Meet Sombra, a beautiful black Shepherd mix who has been given a second chance at life after being rescued from the San Bernardino euthanasia list. At just 10 months old, Sombra is medium-sized and definitely a gentle soul. She adores her fellow canine companions and would thrive in a home filled with patience and love, but she would prefer to be in a cat-free environment. Sweet Sombra is shy and timid around new people and will need time to learn to trust her new family. She's a sensitive girl who doesn’t need someone to change her. Instead, she needs someone to gently show her that the world can be a safe and loving place. A confident dog friend would also be a great help in building her confidence. She was given a second chance; now she’s waiting for the chance to find her true home. If you're interested in adopting or fostering Sombra, please reach out to Loving Pawsabilities. This sweet girl is eager to share her loving spirit with the right family. Let’s make it official; apply today!
