Trixie is a survivor of distemper, weighs approximately 45 Lbs. and is about 3 years old. She is very affectionate and loves to play and although she seems a little rough at times, she is not aggressive. Her original owner basically just threw her out on the street. She of course got pregnant and had 11 puppies, none of which survived. When she became pregnant again, with the owner’s permission we did spay her, but when we attempted to return her, the woman refused to take her back. Obviously we couldn’t abandon her, so our rescuer took her home.
Trixie would be a great playmate for a dog her size. She truly deserves a family that will care for her and not abandon her.

We take great care in being sure that each adoption is a good fit for both the animal and the adopter. Once the adoption is finalized, after a 1 week trial period, we follow up with the adopter (sometimes more time is needed) making sure that the pet is well adjusted to its surroundings and its new owner.
We also ask that they take the adopted pet to their Vet to have the pet checked out even though we have done so prior to the adoption.

We have adoption events almost every weekend. Our Adoption events take place at Petco & Petsmart, our adoption partners. We also participate in other adoption events in the city of San Diego, CA, i.e., the Doggy Street Festival (at Liberty Station) as well as all the events sponsored by the Animals Support Foundation, that take place in Grossmont, San Diego.

More about this rescue
The greater Tijuana area of 3 million people and thousands of abandoned street animals needs more individuals doing rescues and organizing neighborhood spay events. FHSTJ Does not run a shelter. Instead, it supports grass roots organizations and individual rescuers. This allows us to serve many more animals at any given time, due to this unique system of support. This is accomplished by giving financial support to rescuers and groups which could not function without the generosity of FHSTJ donors.
In summary, we support street rescues, mass spay and neuter clinics, pet owners with extremely limited resources needing veterinary care for their animals as well as public education programs, adoption programs for rescuers, and a pet food distribution program for animals in need.
