Looks like: Chihuahua mix Male, 13 years old (estimated), 16 pounds Meet sweet Pauly D, a senior pup with a heart full of gold. Pauly D was dealt an unfortunate hand when it comes to his health, but that doesn't mean he shouldn't live out the remainder of his life being spoiled and loved! This brave boy has been diagnosed with a heart murmur and enlarged heart, along with a variety of other ailments. If giving a pup with medical needs a second chance is your calling, then look no further, Pauly D is your boy. Pauly D joined POMDR from Ventura County Animal Services to help alleviate the overcrowding at the shelter.

Story
Looks like: Chihuahua mix Male, 11 years old (estimated), 15 pounds Looking for that special someone who makes you feel like you're the most wonderful being on the planet, warms your heart, and keeps you laughing? Let us introduce you to Newt-ie-Tootie (or as his foster calls him, Pete Davidson!) When out meeting and greeting his fans on walks, Newt is constantly swooned over and called "the sweetest dog". However, you'll want to be sure to keep a good hold of the leash in case a squirrel or bird or leaf blows by as Newt's enthusiasm for a good chase and good fun knows no bounds. If you've watched episodes of "Saturday Night Live" showcasing our dear friend, Pete Davidson, rap, well, Newt can bust out some pretty rockin' tunes, too. However, Newt does his soulful renditions of love songs when you are away. Car ride? Visit to the feed store to load up on more snacks? You bet - Newt is your guy! This guy figured out that it's the simple pleasures that bring joy: several walkies a day, lots of "together time", and relaxing moments lounging in the yard in a sunny spot. While Newt did come to us with some hair loss, medicated baths, good food, allergy meds, and fish oil supplements are doing wonders for his coat and skin. We can't wait to see his continue to blossom in his new furever home. Apply to adopt Newt today! Newt joined us from the SPCA of Monterey County, where they found he needed a more senior specific audience to find his forever family.
