Gidget is a five-year-old, 13-pound Chihuahua with a heart full of love and a personality that will steal yours. She was picked up by Riverside shelter as a stray and was terribly scared and shy, and would not come to anyone. Plus being a Black dog, no one showed interest in her and she was put on the euthenasia list... We stepped in to pull her, and after Gidget was given some space and time, she now comes to you and wants to be petted, held and is full of affection! Not once has she ever growled, shown her teeth or tried to bite. Gidget is incredibly loyal, intelligent, and brave—always curious and quick to warm up when she feels safe. She is a really good little companion girl! Gidget's the perfect combination of cuddly and playful, and she especially enjoys wrestling with other small dogs. She is quiet, well-mannered, and has a mellow, calming energy that makes her an ideal companion for a peaceful home. She is spayed, microchipped, up to date on her vaccinations, and fully dog-door trained. Gidget is currently in foster care in Victorville, CA, and is ready to find her forever home.

Story
Meet Beso! Beso is an adorable 5-year-old and 8 lb Spaniel/Pomeranian mix. After spending her entire life with one owner, Beso was sadly surrendered to Shelter Hope when her owner could no longer care for her. It has been a huge adjustment for this little girl, but she is learning to feel safe and comfortable again. Beso is a smart, sweet, and communicative companion with a curious, easygoing personality. She enjoys lounging in her cozy bed, curling up in laps, and being near the people she trusts. Though she is laid-back overall, she is very observant and always likes to know what is going on around her. She pays close attention to her surroundings and enjoys being part of the everyday rhythm of the home. Beso is an affectionate and loyal little dog who simply wants to feel safe and loved. She is not reactive to cats and has done well with most other small dogs when given proper introductions, though she would likely be happiest as the only dog in the home. Beso enjoys having her own space, loves being the center of attention, and can sometimes get jealous when sharing affection. While she has done well with kids, she can become protective of her person at times, so we feel she would do best in an adult-only home. If you are looking for a cuddly, devoted companion to share your couch and your heart, Beso could be your perfect match! Beso is fixed, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to find her forever home. ---- Looking to Adopt? Step 1) Apply Online Submit a rescue questionnaire! Please be thorough in your answers.

Story
Prince Leo is a 2-year-old, 18-pound Pom mix who is ready for his second chance. He was found as a stray in Bakersfield with three other dogs. Sadly, this area has become a common dumping ground for unwanted dogs. A good samaritan found them, trapped them, and reached out to us for help. Shelter Hope took in all four. Prince Leo is a nervous boy around humans, but he is very gentle and sweet. Once he feels at ease, he’ll come forward to sniff you or accept treats. His personality truly shines around other dogs, where he feels most confident, and he can become anxious if left alone without them. He loves exploring, relaxing in his bed, and following around his doggie friends. Before coming to us, he spent over a year in a home and is still slowly coming out of his shell. Prince Leo is fixed, vaccinated, and microchipped. He has been through a lot, and we know there is a home out there for him that will give him the love, time, and patience he deserves. ------- Looking to Adopt? Submit a Rescue Questionnaire!

Story
Rider is around 4-5 years old. He is a great watch dog and loves to patrol the yard. He is a little timid at first but once he gets to know you he is your best friend. He loves to sit in your lap. He may be better as an only dog or with another mellow dog. We have other pets who play roughly and he does not like to participate. He is used to a doggy door. He came from a shelter and was very very thin when we adopted him, we do not know his previous history. We have had him for 4 years. He walks very well on a leash, no pulling and loves to go to the dog park. He knows the sit command and will "wait" to eat until you tell him and he loves treats (especially watermelon!) He spins around when he's excited or wants a treat. We feel he would be happier with someone who is home alot in a quieter environment.
