My story

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

Ava was named after actress Ava Gardner for her stunning beauty. Ava was picked up on the side of the freeway by a neighbor. She was brave to pull over and open the car door. Ava jumped right in. She was in terrible shape at the time of rescue - emaciated, ravaged by fleas and ticks. NO MORE! After two months with us, she has a gorgeous coat and her ribs have disappeared. She is a GOOD GIRL. . . Low maintenance and well behaved. Ava spent her life as an "outdoor" dog. You can tell by the worn hair on her elbows. She is crate trained, enjoys just hanging out inside and enjoys rolling in the grass. Ava embraces affection and she has come to enjoy taking a bath. She is accustomed to living in a small condo, she has excellent manners.. She can be picky when it comes to other dogs and she has not been cat-tested. For more information on Ava please contact Lydia at 714-357-8405.

If you are interested in meeting any Poochmatch dog at our weekly adoption event on Saturdays at the Petsmart in Yorba Linda, CA (5521 Mirage St.) between 1-5 PM, please fill out an application from our website, poochmatch.com, and return it via email to poochmatch@hotmail.com no later than 11 AM on Fridays. Upon receipt AND approval, the dog you are interested in meeting will be made available to meet on a Saturday. Due to the high volume of dogs and puppies in our foster homes, it is impossible to bring them all every Saturday. The only way to ensure that the dog that you are interested in will be at the adoption event is to FILL OUT AN APPLICATION AND BE APPROVED. Otherwise, we cannot guarantee that the dog you are interested in will be at our adoption event. If you cannot make the time frame of our events, appointments can be made at another time and location solely at the discretion of the foster parent. Please understand that private appointments will be coordinated to meet the convenience of the foster parent/transporter. We cannot hold dogs, please submit your application when you are ready to adopt.

All adoption fees cover the mandatory and non-negotiable spay/neuter, rabies, microchip, core vaccinations (rabies and 2 sets of distemper/parvo), fecal testing and deworming. Adoption fees vary solely based on age and size.
