Story
Meet Ms. Molly!!!! She is quite a gal and has a model stature because of her height ! Molly is quiet and reserved at the first meeting but warms up immediately ! She is a Chihuahua but she is tall and her long legs probably mean she is a mix. She is just two years old and weighs about 20lbs. Molly is very special to us because she came from an overcrowding situation and that is probably why she is timid and unsure, So we want to make sure Molly goes to a home where she can blossom and gain confidence! Molly would make a perfect inside pet because she loves the comfort of many blankets and a couch. Molly has been fixed and has her shots which means she is ready for a home right now. She has an adjusted adoption fee of $250 and that will help us continue our work to save another dog!

Story
Look at little Max!!! He is just two years and just 15lbs!!! He is pocket size and has a pocket sized personality that fits him. He is quiet and loving and sometimes you won't know he is even there, so be careful where you step! Max is easy to take anywhere and can be easily carried. He is the perfect inside dog and recently had a stay over with some friends and we think he is also house trained. Max does like to have friends. He is a fast runner and exercise is important to him. He is cautious of cats and so we prefer a home without a cat. He is neutered and ready to find the person to pamper his cuteness. His adjusted adoption fee is $200 which helps us to save the next dog in need.

Story
Everyone likes chocolate but everyone LOVES Choco-latte!!! Choco-latte was rescued from an over-crowding situation and came to us bossy and defensive but after two months of daily love and play he just melts in our hands like a piece of chocolate. He now greets strangers with a wag and loves when he gets to chance to sit on a lap and get petted, loved and lots of attention. He does well with dogs his size but he does not like cats. He appears to be housebroken but we cannot give him 100% on that only because we haven't had him a home environment very much. Sadly, Choco-latte resides at our kennel not in a foster home. Choco-latte is approximately 2 years old and weighs about 25lbs. He loves outings and car rides. His personality is a wee bit dominant but he had to fend for himself over the few years he has been on this earth. If you love Chocolate you will love Choco-latte! He is neutered and current on shots. His adjusted adoption fee is $200 which helps us with the care of the dogs we serve!

Story
Bubbles came to us on Giving Tuesday 2023 from the City of Bakersfield Animal Care Center. Hi! I'm Bubbles. I'm one-third of the Powerpuff Girl's Trio! I love hangin with the other girls. We just play and play! Sometimes we get a little too crazy with our toys (and sometimes our beds and blankies even) and they end up getting torn up. So the humans got us some tough toys, but those aren't as fun as the stuff that tears apart! So, now we gotta be supervised with anything soft. But I love the humans too! Sometimes I can be scared when I'm picked up or touched, but then I come to realize "it's okay, these people are nice to me." But I still can get nervous about it. I love jumping up and giving kisses to the humans. And if one of the other girls is gets pets, then of course I gotta scoot in and get some too! I'm hoping to go to a family that will be caring and patient with me, a family that will keep me busy/active, and give plenty of cuddles!

Raquel came to us August 15, 2024 from the City of Bakersfield Animal Care Center. She is about 3 yrs old and full of sass. Hello there, I'm Raquel. I like to take a while before I get close to people. I just gotta test the waters first to make sure you're cool. But once I decide I do like you, then I get really happy! I'll give you so many cuddles and kisses and wanna be in your lap all the time! It also took me a bit to warm up to my little dog buds; but now we frolic around together and chase/play. I'm learning how to walk on a leash; I really hated it at first but now it's not too bad. I'm working on crate training and don't mind that because I get to take a nice snooze. But I do also behave when I'm left out and often just snooze in a nice cozy bed then as well. If you've got a bit of time and patience for me, then down the line I would love to join the fam!

Story
Sex: MaleBreed: Pitbull/Chihuahua xEstimated Date of Birth : 12/06/2023He will forever be your puppy. Tucker’s got all of the pittie looks in a tiny compact body. He’s only 10lbs currently and we don’t expect him to reach over 20lbs full grown. He’s essentially a pocket pittie with all the sugar and spice you’d expect from his breed blend. This adorable little guy is going to charm you with his stunning grey eyes and beautiful silvery grey coat. He’s pretty chill for a young boy but still has enough spunk to be fun. We know there’s someone out there who loves pitties but really needs a smaller size and Tucker is going to be the perfect fit for you! Can you believe this gorgeous boy was brought into the shelter as an underage baby? He went into foster care for awhile and is now back at our ranch making friends with a few of the other young dogs. Ranch staff are working on the training basics while we work to find Tucker his forever home. Tucker has been great with dogs his size but needs time to adjust to the bigger guys. He’s so small we think their size intimidates him. He’s a touch shy but loves human interaction so it doesn’t take long to win him over. He’s also very treat motivated which is helpful when working on his training skills. This sweet boy is adoption ready and simply waiting for the right family to see his pics and story and apply to make him theirs. Maybe that perfect family is you?

Story
Sex: MaleBreed: Dachshund xEstimated Date of Birth : 09/18/2009His rough exterior hides one of the sweetest dogs we’ve ever met. Fred may not be visibly perfect and he may no longer have the body of a young dog but his soul gives what his appearance can not. This boy loves with his whole entire heart! If his old bones would allow it he’d be in your lap every second of every day. He wants nothing more than to be with you and for him that time, that little bit of attention is enough. He’s the kindest old man and we are determined to find him a family who will give him the caring end of life he so deserves. A retirement filled with soft places he can rest his tired bones and more love that his larger than life heart can handle. Fred was part of a group of 13 senior dogs who lost their long time rescuer when she went on hospice. She was no longer able to care for her animals and they all needed a soft place to land. All 13 are now in foster care with us and waiting for loving forever homes. Fred is part of this crew and looking for a home that understands that he’s an old dog in an old dogs body and our goal is just to keep him comfortable and happy for the time he has left. Fred is significantly overweight. More to love right? But the reality is that extra weight puts a strain on his aging bones. We’ve got him on a reduced calorie diet plan and his future adopter should continue this diet in the future. Fred is also currently being treated for an eye issue and walks with a tilt to his head. The tilt is nothing we can fix and only adds to his old man charm. Fred will never be perfect but we can promise if you open your heart and open your home the love he’ll give in return will last a lifetime. We hope we can find him a kind human who will do just that!

Story
Sex: FemaleBreed: Chihuahua xEstimated Date of Birth : 12/23/2022Have you ever had a preference for the type of people you hang out with? Brooke sure does, she loves the ladies! I mean you gentlemen are ok if there’s no other option but Brooke is all about the #girlpower and bonds quickly to the women in her life. She loves them all! If you’re a woman she’s going to want to be your very best friend! I wonder if we can find sweet Brooke a lovely lady to call her own? She’s not a man hater by any means just has an obvious preference that we think we can accommodate. Brooke was picked up as a stray by our county shelter. While small dogs aren’t in as much risk as the larger pups they can still be euthanized for space. Brooke’s darker coat meant she was less likely to stand out and more likely to be overlooked. This meant she was the perfect candidate for a rescue pull as we can give her the time she needs to get noticed. Brooke has headed into foster care and has quickly settled in. Initially a bit shy Brooke’s real personality comes out once she’s comfortable. She’s sweet, affectionate and wants nothing more than to be with the people she loves. Young children make her nervous. Their loud active energy is a lot for her and we feel she’d do best in a home with older respectful children who know to give her some space. She tolerates other dogs but would love to have the humans to herself and she’s not a fan of kitty friends. Brooke is quickly picking up both house and crate training in her foster home and has already mastered the dog door. She’s got lots of “hops” for such a small dog so secure and tall fencing is a must. Brooke is ready to find her humans and she’s hoping that at least one of those humans is the lady friend she’s been wishing for. Let’s make it happen!
