My story

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

Meet Lucky – Our Miracle Malamute!

Lucky is a stunning and gentle Alaskan Malamute with a heart as big as his beautiful fluffy coat. This handsome boy has escaped the euthanasia list twice — both times rescued just minutes before it was too late.

Lucky’s journey hasn’t been easy. He was first saved from Contra Costa Animal Care Center by another rescue and later adopted in Southern California. Sadly, his family could no longer care for him, and he was passed to another family. After some time, that family abandoned him at Baldwin Park Animal Care Center — where he once again faced euthanasia. Thankfully, we stepped in and saved him just in time.

Despite everything he’s been through, Lucky is pure love. He adores people, gets along well with other dogs, walks nicely on a leash, and is fully housebroken. He’s vaccinated, microchipped, and neutered — ready for his forever home.

Whoever adopts Lucky will truly be the luckiest person. Don’t be intimidated by his size — he’s just a big, gentle teddy bear looking for love. ❤️

Go meet their pets

Most of my pets are with the foster in Tijuana ( Mexico). I have 1-2 fosters in USA but they have been busy lately. If anyone is interested in adopting one of my rescue dogs they get transported to San Diego and I pick them up and take them to their new owner and they get adopted. I haven't had an adoption event yet but if I do in the future will be at Pet Food Express because I am a rescue partner with them.
I also had some puppies rescued within California

More about this rescue

I fostered for a rescue for about a year. 4 of my rescue puppies( siblings) had Parvo and one didn't make it and rest ended up in the hospital. After being treated and survived Parvo they came back to me to foster them for 2 weeks before adoption. I ended up adopting one of the puppies ( foster fail) and I opened my rescue because of him and he is my rescue logo too.I want to save dogs and treat them and give them a forever home. Give them a second chance same way my foster fail had a second chance of living.
