My personality

My story

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

Trooper was at the Orange County Animal Care Center since April 2024. He attended all of the public adoption events and quickly became a volunteer favorite! So, it came as quite a shock when 14 months later, he was involved in a bite incident with a stranger on the shelter property which led to him being removed as available for public adoption. His only hope was to be rescued, and AALOC stepped forward to help him. The AALOC team was able to scoop up Trooper in the nick of time. When we arrived to take Trooper to our humane center, numerous Orange County Animal Care volunteers came to give Trooper the send-off he deserved, with love and best wishes as he left for his new rescue home.

Trooper was adopted once during his stay at Orange County Animal Care Center. The adopter said Trooper was an amazing dog that loved the family and children very much. But the new owner had back disabilities and found Trooper (at 70 pounds) too difficult to walk frequently from the apartment they lived in.

Trooper is available to an adult-only home. He loves attention, going for walks and playing. He is a people dog who would love to have someone special to share his life with.

More about this shelter

The Animal Assistance League of Orange County is a non-profit 501(c)3 no kill humane society dedicated to aiding lost and homeless pets, helping people with pet related problems, promoting responsible pet-ownership and pet population control, and preventing cruelty to animals through educational programs.

The organization took its first steps in 1973 with a few animal lovers who wanted to reunite pet owners with lost pets. Today there is a no-kill shelter located in Midway City, with a population of approximately 110 cats and dogs. There is a telephone/email helpline that assists pet owners with a variety of issues, including spay/neuter, pet aid for low-income pet owners, animal abuse and any number of other issues related to cats and dogs.

AALOC is managed almost entirely by volunteers. The reason we do what we do is that we care deeply about animal welfare and hope to make a difference - at least in our part of the world.
