Meet Santi! Santi is a sweet and peaceful boy looking for someone to finally show him the love. He's currently decompressing after being terrified in the shelter. He's good with other dogs and would just love someone to give him his space to come out of his shell. Can you be the next love of his life?

Story
Bouncy, Happy, and Playful....That's Our Bindi Bindi is an approximately 1 - 1.5 year old, female, 9lb, Cairn Terrier/Westie mix that is still all puppy! This little cutie came to us when she was found as a stray on the streets. Thankfully, a kind woman got her to safety and held her on a stray hold, but unfortunately no one stepped up to claim her. The woman reached out to us and asked if we could take her into our foundation and we said, yes! Bindi is young and still very puppyish. We are looking for a home for her with another "young" and very playful small breed dog or she could be adopted with her best friend, Tali, a 2 yr old Maltese/Terrier mix that is about 16lbs. Bindi cannot be an "only" dog. We are also looking for owners that are not gone long hours during the day and with a home that has a safe/secure backyard for her to run around in. Bindi is full of life and deserves the best home out there! Bindi is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. We only adopt in the Greater Los Angeles Areas as an in person meet/greet, home check, and trial period are required. Please contact us for more information at: gina@theforgottendog.org or 310-990-2020 Bindi's adoption fee is $650

Story
Sweet, quiet Denise was found alone in central California, and found her way to The REAL Bark via the local Tulare shelter. She is a wonderful gal, all of her 6.5 lbs of sweetness, and 12 years young - a very polite, demure, quiet girl who is very friendly with new people, loves snuggles, and is ready to be someone's always companion. Her soulful eyes tell you how she has had a rough start but is forgiving and ready to find her forever home where she will be loved and give loads of love back. She would do best in a home with a little secure yard for her little pee breaks. Might you be the one to provide her future home? Calm (older) children in the home would be fine. Please note that we are currently set up to adopt within the Los Angeles county area.
