He came from a shelter they believed had been hit by a car he had a broken pelvis and injured leg, but we are fairly sure he was beaten. He was terrified of anything like a broom and pees and poops himself.  He's getting better every day. He needs a quiet home, cats are okay, but no male dogs. He can be a sweet boy but wants to trust but we can see it in his eyes as he sizes up every situation. He loves playing with the female dogs in his foster home and can spend hours outside just running and playing.  He weighs about 9 pounds, is microchipped and has been fully vaccinated. Neuter to be announced still recovering from a broken pelvis and injured leg. Please consider adopting a senior dog. They are passed over routinely in shelters and Chihuahua senior dogs who are black are then the number 2 breed most euthanized in shelters. Adopt don't shop! ##1371753##

FINN! ADOPT ME! I'M READY TO CRAWL INTO YOUR HEARTS! Finn is a mystery mutt. We guessed chi corgi at first, but they seem to have outgrown the chi part, we've considered Basenji, Shepherd, Min Pin, and more but the truth is we really don't know. 🤣 We think they will be medium large sized (55ish pounds) but we're not making any promises at this point. Finn is fixed, vaccinated and microchipped. He's about 7.5 months old. Finn has been raised with dogs of all sizes. He gets along with them all. He's very happy go lucky. He loves to play. Working on his housetraining but getting there. He does pretty well on leash and loves to go to Starbucks! Crate trained, but he didn't really like the crate. He's not cat friendly. Currently in foster in So Cal, can be adopted anywhere in California. Adoption fee of $300 includes neuter, microchip, core vaccines, and free access to online training programs that we purchase. Please apply here to adopt:. Adoption Application We require an application before scheduling a meet and greet. Thank you!

Story
Dumped on the side of the road with her 2 pups, also listed for adoptions (Thelma & Louise) She's with a great foster dad who has indulged her in attention and affection. She's coming out of her shell and will make a great family pet. If this listing is still posted, we are still accepting applications. We do not do out-of-state adoptions. We do not hold dogs, 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. We commonly receive multiple applications for a single dog. Nevertheless, only one applicant will be invited to meet a dog at a mutually agreeable appointment day, time & place. Usually Petsmart Yorba Linda or our Santa Ana location near South Coast Plaza. 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. All adoption fees cover the mandatory and non-negotiable spay/neuter, rabies, microchip, microchip registration, full sets of core vaccinations (rabies and 1 set of distemper/parvo for adults, 4 for puppies) 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.

Story
Mr. Peanut Butter is a sweet, 8-year-old pup I adopted from a shelter 6 months ago. He’s incredibly loving, calm, and well-behaved — fully potty trained and a gentle companion who enjoys daily walks and playing with soft chew toys. He knows a few tricks and loves showing them off for treats! Mr. Peanut Butter has had some ongoing digestive issues, including occasional vomiting and diarrhea, and he may have a sensitive stomach or even an ulcer. So far, the episodes don’t follow a clear pattern, and despite testing, the vets haven’t pinpointed an exact cause. He’s still full of love and life, but he’ll likely need a home that can provide continued veterinary support and monitor his health closely. It breaks my heart to rehome him, but I’m no longer able to manage his medical expenses. I’m looking for a kind adopter who can give him the care he deserves — someone who will love him and help him feel safe and comfortable. If you think this person might be you, please reach out!
