My story

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

Meet Willa. She reminds us that age is just a number and that it’s never too late for a second chance at love. Willa is a senior but doesn’t seem to have gotten the message: She’s bouncy, energetic, and as full of life as her younger counterparts. Friendly and affectionate with everyone she meets, Willa loves to climb into people’s lap to cuddle. She’s a quick study and aims to please, so she’ll also deactivate her Velcro properties when you ask for space. Treat- and praise-motivated, Willa is taking to her obedience and crate-training quickly and is ready to be a prized family member. She’s grateful for this second chance and lets her people know it with an infectious grin that never seems to leave her face.

More about this rescue

K9 Kismet Dog Rescue is a foster-based, volunteer-run 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in Long Beach, CA. Founded in 2015, our dedicated team has helped to place hundreds of animals in loving, permanent homes.

Our primary mission is to rescue, rehabilitate and find loving, permanent homes for homeless dogs, specifically dogs in shelters at-risk of euthanasia and dogs whose owners can no longer care for them. We believe in compassionate rescue when the dog is enduring inhumane living conditions or likely to be deemed less adoptable due to age, health, emotional state, or breed. We ensure that all the dogs we take into our rescue, regardless of individual needs, are cared for with love and compassion for the duration of their lives.

We strive to make a difference in the life of each dog we bring into our pack, and our commitment to each dog doesn’t end once they are adopted. We provide lifelong support to all K9 Kismet alumni should an emergency arise. Once a K9 Kismet Dog, always a K9 Kismet Dog. This isn’t a catch phrase; this is a core value.
