My story

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

Meet Carter!

This sweet 10-year-old Pittie mix (about 50 lbs) is a gentle, easygoing boy looking for his forever home. He’s house-, leash-, and crate-trained, does great with kids, and goes to doggy daycare with 10–14 dogs every day with no issues!

Carter has some creaky hips, so long hikes aren’t really his thing — but he loves to play fetch, explore the yard, and then curl up under his blankets for a cozy nap (he wears his sweater almost 24/7!). He can be a little shy at first and prefers not to be disturbed while sleeping, but he’s a total sweetheart once he knows you.

He rides fine in the car (even better in an RV!), eats like a champ, and would love a fenced yard to play safely. Carter might do best as the only dog at home, though he’s polite with others.

If you’re looking for a mellow, loving companion with a big heart and an even bigger love for naps, Carter’s your guy!

If it is determined that you and dog might be a good fit a meet and greet will be arranged.

Go meet their pets

We are a foster-based, volunteer-driven rescue. All SDRO dogs available for adoption are listed on our website. The listing includes information to help you decide if one of our dogs is right for your household. If you are interested in adopting a dog, please complete an online application. If your home suits the dog's needs, we'll call you to discuss your application and ask any follow-up questions. Our experienced adoption coordinator will discuss the dog’s needs with you to help determine if your home is the right fit. Since we do not operate a shelter and all our dogs are in foster care, a meet-and-greet will be your first opportunity to meet the dog face-to-face.
