Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.The tale of Robby, a 10-year-old Boxer Mix, is a heart-wrenching illustration of how a dog can be considered homeless despite technically having an owner. For a decade, Robby endured a life of neglect, living in a dilapidated dog house barely fit for a rat, positioned just outside the home of his owner. Stripped of the basic necessities of care and nourishment, he had no choice but to resort to scavenging for food, begging passersby for scraps and water, all while defending himself from the other street dogs that roamed freely. This life of hardship took its toll on his health, leaving him riddled with infections and suffering from painful rotten and broken teeth due to his desperate attempts to eat whatever he could find. Fortunately, a glimmer of hope arose when concerned individuals turned to me for assistance. I understood that Robby’s situation was a call for compassion that could not be ignored. Upon his rescue, it became clear just how much love and care Robby had been deprived of over the years. With proper veterinary care and rehabilitation, this gentle soul began to regain his health, blossoming into a vibrant and affectionate companion. Robby’s journey is of survival and resilience!! When kindness finally entered his life after years of starvation and loneliness his soul came to life. However, the scars of his past linger on. Although Robby is now a sweet dog who adores human company, the years of ill treatment have left him with food and treat aggression. These behaviors are not indicative of his character but rather a reflection of his survival instincts honed in an unforgiving environment. We continue to help Robby by overcoming his feeling of being food deprived with training and he's doing so much better. We are committed to Robby!!! It’s believed that the best path for Robby is to live as an only dog, allowing him to bask in the one thing he has longed for throughout his tumultuous life—human kindness and love. Robby's story is not just a reminder of the plight of many animals; it serves as a call to action for compassion and understanding, driving us to provide every creature the loving home they deserve. I added Robby’s before pictures on his post so you can see what his life was like and to show how resilient a beautiful soul could be. Robby deserves to live the rest of his life in peace, comfort and with a lot of love which he thrives on. If you live in San Diego County, have a home with a secured yard and would love a wonderful companion dog then please complete our adoption application at tlck9rescue.orgVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 6, 2025, 5:05 pm

Story
How this pet arrived: Suavecito was brought in by a community member on November 04, 2025. Why this pet is the one for you:Suavecito is a gentle boy whose name says it all - he's smooth, soft-hearted, and full of quiet charm. He can be a little shy at first, so he's looking for someone who can offer a little baby talk and a lot of patience as he warms up. Once he feels safe, his affectionate personality truly shines. Suavecito recently had a mass removed from his leg, and while he's healing, his new family should plan to keep up with vet checkups to monitor his future care. With a calm environment and gentle reassurance, we hope that Suavecito will blossom into a loyal companion. Come meet this handsome boy and let him melt your heart - one soft wag at a time. At SDHS: Suavecito has been vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. Suavecito is now ready for his new home! Primary Color: Tan Secondary Color: Tri Color Weight: 58.8 Age: 4yrs 1mths 2wks

Story
How this pet arrived: Winnie was brought in by a community member on November 21, 2025. Why this pet is the one for you:Meet Winnie, a sweet girl with a gentle heart and a shy streak. She's still getting used to her new surroundings, so she'll need a thoughtful family who can give her time, patience, and a quiet space to settle in. Winnie is looking for a home without young children (under 8), where she can relax and feel safe. One thing Winnie does know for sure is that she adores other social, friendly dogs. In fact, having a confident canine companion in the home would be a huge bonus for her and would help her blossom at her own pace. If you're ready to welcome a tender, sweet little soul who will reward your kindness with trust and love, Winnie might just be your perfect match. At SDHS:Winnie has been vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. Winnie is now ready for his new home!Shy/Fearful Dog: This pet requires a virtual behavior consult, please watch THIS video to learn more about them.
