If you're a lone wolf and like it that way, and are stubborn enough to love her - you could be a great fit for this little teddy bear of a tasmanian devil. Leia is 7 years old and weighs about 30-35 pounds. She is devoted, funny, and loves to play (see the YouTube video). She tends to love one-two-maybe three people and will ask others to leave her alone. She gives all of her love to the one-two who deserve her adoration! Leia is house and crate trained, and knows knows all of her basic commands. She is a fun activity pal, too. Leia is located in SoCal. Adopters must be able to come here to meet and adopt. We do not ship our dogs. A home visit and vet reference are required.

We have some amazing dogs looking for just the right home.
To apply adopt a dog, you will be required to fill out an adoption questionnaire. We also require a home check and a vet reference. There is an adoption fee for each pet. The average adoption fee is $400 for puppies and $350 for adult dogs. All dogs are spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and microchipped.
We are a foster-based organization, meaning that all of our dogs are living with families in homes. We do not have a facility. Therefore, adoptions are made by appointment only.
