Click Here to Sponsor Me!  Adoption APPLICATION: Muttsinneed.org/adoption-application   ** Application must be completed prior to a meet & greet.                                   Our Adoption Process:Muttsinneed.org/adoption-process  This cute boy is Tai, he’s an approx  one year old super mutt and around 40lbs. He was rescued from the Long Beach shelter and came to us super shy and closed off. Tai’s forever home will need to have another outgoing dog, to show him how to be a dog, and a human who has a lot of love and patience to help bring out his personality full time. He is a very playful dog once he gets to know you and would do best in a low-traffic home. Having another dog is a must for Tai. To meet him, apply for him at https://www.muttsinneed.org/adoption-application.htmlNovember 3, 2024, 7:15 pm

This beautiful young girl was found at the side of the road and rescued by a kind Samaritan. She is now in foster care with a kind neighbor until she finds a great home. She is a quiet, gentle dog. She’s been through a lot and will require some patience until she gains confidence. For additional information call Lydia at 714-357-8405.

Please read the narrative in its entirety. Please note our adoption procedures are explained in GREAT DETAIL BELOW. READ, READ, READ. Thank You. . . . . The best match will be selected and contacted to confirm an appointment at Petsmart in Yorba Linda on Saturday between noon and 3 pm or on a mutually agreeable day, time and place. We do not do out-of-state adoptions for puppies and we cannot hold puppies; please submit your application when you are ready to adopt. If you are interested in meeting any Poochmatch dog, please visit our website to complete an adoption application. It is in the ADOPTION folder at the top of our home page. Just fill in the blanks and SEND. The adoption fees cover the mandatory and non-negotiable spay/neuter, rabies, microchip, microchip registration, core vaccinations including rabies and 4 sets of distemper/parvo and deworming. Adoption fees vary based on age, breed, size and the costs incurred on the dog's behalf by us i.e. medical, behavioral training, etc. Puppies are not house-trained although they may have begun crate-training and/or potty pad training in their foster home, depending on their age. House-training is a process that will need to be completed by their adopter. Puppies, if left unsupervised and not redirected will develop negative behaviors such as using the restroom in the wrong place, chewing, barking, whining, etc. Please be sure to do research on raising a puppy and be sure that you are prepared to do so.

Story
My brother got Thor when Thor was just a couple of months old. Thor is a boxer-benseji mix. He has a beautiful pointed nose of a basenji and adorable droopy lips of a boxer. His basenji nature is very interesting. He is clever, independent, and good at cleaning himself. He does not drool. At home, Thor is quite relaxed. He loves to lay next to you and quietly goes to sleep as you pet him. Thor is a lovely dog. He is so gentle and so sweet that it feels great to give him a hug. Thor loves walks. He gets very excited but serious on his walks. You could see the pep in his steps and also the determination in his movements as he patrol his territory around the neighborhood. My brother ran into issues a while back and had to moved back home with my dad and I. I live in a mobile home complex that does not allow large dogs. Our manager said we can’t keep Thor in our complex because he is a big dog. I hope to find Thor a loving family that could care for him and appreciate his good nature.
