MEET PUNKY….and what a special boy he is. This little 10 lb, tan/white, 3-4 yr old Shih Tzu came to us from San Bernardino absolutely, positively, shut down. Cut to: a month later and he is a different dog! Still a little fearful of the elements, he is coming out of his shell little by little. There is no question to that he was neglected and ignored; worse yet, abused. It’s apparent that a kind human hand he had never felt :( He loves other dogs and cuddling up with his foster buddies. He used to hide — now he shows glee in greeting you! We’ve taught him to walk on a leash, go up and down stairs and venture out into the scary world, and he is getting the message that all humans are not bad. You can catch him smiling and now, even playing with a toy == where before the squeaker scared him; now they are his favorites! He really likes his belly rubs and petting time, and his special place on your bed!! Punky needs a home that will continue to make him feel safe and loved. No chaos, but quiet and continuous love. He needs to be spoiled to life!! Another small to medium dog in the home is a must, to help make him feel secure. We love dogs like Punky because we know that we will bring him back to life…and we love doing it. Do you want to continue our work? Nothing is more rewarding :)

Rover is located at 2116 Main Street, in Santa Monica, CA. Here you will have an opportunity to interact with the dogs and see which might be a perfect fit with your household. Main Street is famous for its innovative shops and is close to the beach! Make a day of it!! Metered parking on the street and free parking on 4th and Bicknell Streets.
Here you will have an opportunity to interact with the dogs and see which might be a perfect fit with your household....and do some fantastic shopping at the same time! Please do call us if you are coming to see a particular dog to make sure he/she will be at adoptions (we do not bring sick dogs to our adoption events). Please bring a copy of your application and pictures of your home and yard if we have not done a home check! Most importantly, if you have a dog, make sure you bring him or her to do a compatibility match with the dog you are interested in adopting!
