Story
Meet Tony! This sweet young boy had a horrible start to life, living at a hoarder house in central Ca, but he was one of the lucky ones that got out, but he is still in desperate need of help. He is in a temp foster until Oct 5th and if he doesn't find a foster/adopter/rescue to take him, he will have to go back to central ca to an outdoor kennel which would be horrible to go backwards w/the progress he's made in just a few short days being in a home. He is working on potty training and being leash, so he needs someone that can continue with that, someone w/a yard would be ideal. If you can help Tony by adopting/fostering or taking him into your rescue for placement, please contact us immediately as he is in URGENT need!

Story
This is one spectacular puppy! Poor Louis was going to get killed at a shelter because they claimed he had Parvo. At the last minute he was saved and taken to our vet for treatment. It was there that he tested negative and never needed treatment. This is such a kind, sweet and loving boy. So sweet, that God gave him a HeART shaped nose with a little bone shaped marking. He is between 5-6 months old and weighs less than 30 pounds. He will be a perfectly sized medium dog. Great family dog for sure. All dogs in our program are up to date on all their shots, spayed or neutered, and micro chipped. Our dogs are in foster homes which enables us to learn more about them in a home environment. We do not place dogs on a first come first serve basis, but rather to the home best suited for them. An application, adoption fee and contract are required. Please direct all questions to adopt@crdogrescue.com. All our dogs can be met with an approved application. Thank you for looking at a rescue dog for your next family member.

Story
Baloo is a 2.5-year-old Dalmatian mix who is very smart, and VERY goofy. He is an intense sniffer, preferring to spend most of his time with his nose glued to the ground, and if you're not careful he'll wander off while following his nose. He also has a nervous disposition, particularly in new situations, so when Baloo encounters new places or new people/dogs, he prefers to sniff everything out until he is comfortable before breaking out his charming personality. , While Baloo can be very selective with his friends, particularly his dog friends, once he has gotten to know you and accept you, he's fiercely loyal and incredibly loving. Whenever he sees an unexpected friend (dog or human), his tail wags so hard that his body wiggles all over the place and he can barely walk straight. Baloo also gets the zoomies A LOT (did I mention he has a ton of energy?) so he loves to be outside. However, since Baloo gets really attached to his human/dog friends, he doesn't particularly enjoy being out in the yard on his own. He doesn't usually get separation anxiety (although he can in some situations), and he can be left alone for long periods of time, but he generally prefers to go explore with his group of dogs/humans nearby. While Baloo does exhibit some behaviors that would be cause for concern for certain owners, we believe an experienced owner or an owner that is committed to training/has trained in the past to deal with complex dogs would be able to take great care of him. Ultimately, we love Baloo very much and want the best for him, and we know that he can be the perfect dog for someone looking a dog with a lot of love to give who needs a lot of attention and love in return.

Story
Adoption Fee - $75. 10 months, 50 pounds. Baller came from the Mississippi 92! Long story short, a lady thought she could rescue them all at her own personal home and just ended up unable to and couldnt afford it anymore. All the dogs in her care had to be chained up by order of animal control and it got so out of hand that they wernt getting taken care of properly and never got to leave the chains. He is very shy at first but he will open right up. He needs help building his confidence as he has been chained up his whole life and has never experienced the world! Extremely sweet boy and very loving. Very dog friendly, people friendly, and kid friendly as well! Baller is super sweet and just figuring out how to really be a dog. We believe that he is a cattle dog lab mix although we’re not 100% sure. We have had several people tell us he is a 'Dalmador' a Dalmatian Lab mix also! Recently cat tested baller and he did great with all the cats that were in the home! He was curious and smelled them but had no reaction when they would run away. If interested in adoption please fill out the adoption application here www.ozzieandfriendsrescue.org/adoptions (you can also see all our other dogs available for adoption!! ) Baller is in Los Angeles, California. We have transport that goes out every single weekend throughout California, Oregon & Washington! Adoptions in Canada also possible as long as adopter can cross down into Washington &#226&#152&#186&#239&#184&#143September 29, 2023, 6:03 pm

We rescued this super sweet 2 year old (as of March 2023) boy and he is looking for his forever home. Like many blue-eyed Dalmatians, Pongo is deaf but that will not stop him from being a wonderful and loving companion. He loves people and dogs (and even tested well with cats) and he would love a chance to be a part of your family! Pongo gives great hugs to show affection.

Story
Kali is a nine year old dalmation mix we brought home from the shelter. She is house-trained, loves to be around people and dogs, and is high energy even though she is a senior. She knows basic commands and sleeps in a crate at night. I am looking to rehome her due to my busy work schedule. I do not have the time to dedicate to her on a daily basis. Kali needs to be around people all the time and does not do well in the back yard without people around. She will thrive in an environment where she can be around humans, whether inside or out. She is up to date on all shots and is micro-chipped. At night, she sleeps in her crate and will go out to do her business but will bark to come back in the house unless you stay outside with her. She was underweight and had a large tumor on her foot when adopted. I have nursed her back to health and she now has a beautiful coat, no tumor. Her ideal home would be with someone who is looking for a constant companion, can provide snuggles and walks.
