My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Chihuahua / Yorkshire Terrier / Poodle mix; Female; 7 months; 6 pounds
Vega is a puppy mill survivor and requires a patient, forever home to help her adjust to her wonderful new life. If you are interested in Vega, please read the following article to understand the challenges an adopter of a dog from a puppy mill may face.

Vega was rescued from a puppy mill so she is more shy than your regular pup. She is very sweet and needs extra TLC to become the dog she was born to be! Vega is young enough to learn to trust her humans but will need patience and understanding on her journey. Come see Vega if you would love to teach a little pup to love again!! Vega is available for adoption now. If you would like more information about her and our adoption process, please call the shelter at (760) 753-6413.
Business hours are Wednesday – Monday; 11 am to 5 pm. Closed Tuesdays.
Watch a video of Vega in her temporary foster home playing with all her friends!
