Story
Meet Kimi– A Shy Girl Looking for Patience and Love Kimi is a 7-year-old Chihuahua mix who is still learning that the world can be a safe and gentle place. Right now, she’s a cautious little soul — nervous around new people and environments — but with time and patience, she’s beginning to show small signs of trust. She has started coming out of her kennel on her own if given the space and time, and she will walk calmly with a handler as long as she doesn’t feel pressured. In quiet spaces, Kimi prefers to find a safe spot where she can watch from a distance, but she’ll get up and follow when it’s time for a potty break. She isn’t comfortable with petting or handling yet, and may try to avoid unwanted contact, so she’ll need someone who understands dog body language and is willing to let her move at her own pace. Kimi has met other dogs in playgroup but mostly chooses to keep to herself, occasionally venturing out to explore. Because of her fearful nature, she would do best in a calm home with an experienced adopter who sees the beauty in helping a shy dog blossom. With the right person by her side, Kimi has the potential to grow into a devoted little companion. She just needs someone who is patient, gentle, and ready to give her the time she deserves to feel safe and loved. Could that be you? 💕

Story
Dukes owners, my aunt and uncle are relocating back to England to be near family due to health issues and are not able to have a dog, so sadly they are unable to take him with them. They got him from the Palm Springs animal shelter about 2 and a half years ago. He is a sweet boy, lovely temperament. He has been around their Grandchildren who are 2-6 years old. He gets on well with other dogs. Not sure about how he feels about cats. He is roughly 4 years old now and is 28lbs. If you are interested please let me know, Duke is a good boy and deserves a good home!

Story
Cherry is one of more than 25 little dogs left behind after an eviction — a heartbreaking situation that left them scared, unsure, and just trying to survive together. They’ve all come a long way since being rescued. At first, everything was new and overwhelming, but now they’re slowly learning what love feels like — warm beds, gentle hands, and soft voices. Each one has a shy heart that just wants to trust again. Cherry is ready to bond with one special person — someone patient, kind, and willing to show them that humans can be safe. Once that trust is built, the love they give back is pure magic. If you have room in your heart and home, please consider adopting one of these little souls. They’ve been through so much and truly deserve to finally be loved, safe, and home.
