Story
Bear is an inside dog. He prefers to be alongside his owner. He is very loyal. I put him down for special needs because he gets anxiety when I take him out for walks. He is familiar with my neighborhood, so he does fine. But going elsewhere can be challenging for him. He is three years old. He is very loving. He can do some tricks and is potty-trained. He will let you know when he has to go outside; he will either point to the door with his head or bark at you. He is good at communicating. He also loves to play. Bear can be shy at first, but once he knows you, he’ll love you. He is also great with all my nephews, from one year old to 10. The reason I can no longer take care of Bear is that I live where I live. I am a college student, and my housing situation does not allow for a dog anymore. Bear is such a good dog, and it pains me to let him go. He deserves a good and loving home where he can get all the attention he needs.

Story
Is this not the cutest little dog!? This is mitzvah, #a2253462 now Chachki, ( and yes, it can be spelled without the t) (its Yiddish for little trinket) from the west valley shelter. This precious 15-year-old Chihuahua has owner surrendered on the 26. After having him for 14 years, they were moving out of the country and dumped him at the shelter. A volunteer reached out to us and asked if we could rescue this dog, we had a foster ready, so of course we saved him. He saw the veterinarian today and will go to his foster home tomorrow. We're so glad we can give this little senior dog the best of the rest of his life . He is available for adoption! ##2696780##

Story
Another senior is safe on March 20, 2026! This is 16 year old Axel, #5761574, now Camry, from the Lancaster shelter. Camry found himself surrendered to the shelter on March 11, 2026. Check out his cute freedom walk at the vet office.  There was not one post on social media championing him or seeking rescue. We saw him on an email from the shelter. Two days ago, he was on an email list with eleven other dogs that the lancaster shelter sent out, giving a 72 hour notice.They probably send out 3-4 of those email lists every  day.There's so many dogs that need to get saved.We can help more senior dogs like axel, if we have forever fosters. Right now, Camry is in a temporary foster home, waiting to get adopted.If he's adopted, there's space at that temporary home for another dog. The shelter is in the midst of confiscating over four hundred dogs. Where are those dogs to go?  If you foster or adopt a senior dog from us, it gives the shelter space, it gives us space. be part of the solution! Be a cog in the wheel that makes a difference. Join our team today.We have an easy application process.We have a small adoption fee and no  big hoops to jump through.  ##2696778##

Story
This is Penny, She’s 7 years old, she loves people, super cuddly, she’s the chihuahua who changes peoples minds about chihuahuas. She has arthritis, she can’t go on a walk around the block without needing to be picked up, might need a doggy stroller soon. She loves sweaters! She refuses to go potty when it’s cold or rainy without them. She has favorite toys, she loves pillows and blankets, she refuses to sit on a cold floor, even if you drop a sock or rag on the ground she will sit on it to avoid the floor. When you inherit her you get all her stuff. ❌ Doesn’t like kids who don’t respect boundaries, might nip or growl ❌Doesn’t do well with other pets, maybe cats if they mind their own business and don’t steal her food The reason I’m rehoming her is because she doesn’t do well with my toddler, I’ve always had to keep them separate, so I haven’t been giving her the attention she needs for a long time. Financially we don’t have money to spare for vet visits.
