Click Here to Sponsor Me! (just write my name in the notes) 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.htmlApril 18, 2024, 1:35 pm

Story
Meet Scarlett! She is new to the shelter and is such a sweet girl as she continues to settle in. Her previous owner told us she has some obedience training, loves children, and is bilingual! What a smart girl! Scarlett is a gorgeous Basenji mix and about a year and a half. She gets along with other dogs, and loves to go out for walks. Little miss Scarlett is also a professional fetch player! She brings the ball/toy right back and drops it for you, all while having a huge smile plastered on her face, as she loves to play!

Story
Violet was rescued from the streets of Tijuana when she was two-months old. I adopted her when she was 5 months old. I met her in San Diego and she's been with me now in Riverside for two years. She shows much less of the effects - really just timidity - of her experience on the streets of Tijuana and she's been able to socialize well with other dogs and people for some time now. My personal impression is she's a gentle spirited dog and affectionate with those she knows and trusts. I believe she's well adjusted in the environment she knows. She's probably best as a single pet. I also think she would be a great fit for an active (walks mostly - but she could be a running partner), somewhat experienced pet owner. She could also fit in a household of a family with older children. She knows vocal and hand commands. Sit, Stay, Wait, Leave it, Come, Follow, Paw. Looking for a place where she can run and be the active dog she is.

Story
Sweet, playful Angel is a very special baby! She is not the brightest puppy but her personality shines! She had a traumatic pre-natal brain injury, which causes her to be a little slow and fearful of stranger, but she just wants to be loved and pampered once she knows you. She is looking for an adopter OR local foster. See her in action: https://youtu.be/pzkg5YSiTaQ
