Story
Location: Nevada City, CA Please welcome back Mango. This darling 4 yr. old liver gal found herself back with Save The Dals through NO fault of her own. She does need slow introductions to new dogs, but after that, they are friends for life. She's happy and loves running around the fenced yard, sniffing the world around her and chew bones. Mango has discovered she loves to chase balls and play with stuffies! Car rides are very exciting. She loves being talked to & will just gaze up at you. Mango has been wonderful with the older children in her foster home. This girl is a major cuddler and genuine Velcro Dal. She wants to be touching you at all times. If you want personal space, she is not the girl for you. Mango is a very good girl when it comes to taking a bath & having her nails done. Her only fault, she doesn't like to share her food, so she simply eats in her crate. NO cats. Would you like a little chocolate covered Mango of your own?

Story
Location: Fresno, CA Say hi to Atlas! This cutie guy is about 8-10 months old and was found roaming the streets. No microchip, no owner has been found. The finder cannot keep him, as he is very much a puppy and tends to run over her little dogs. He is currently 35 lbs. We are guessing Atlas to be a blend of Dalmatian and Cattle dog, that equals adorable & sweet. Gets along great with other dogs, of course after a proper introduction. He is very shy and timid at first, once he warms up, he just wants to be near you. Atlas loves to run and his recall is pretty good. He enjoys learning things, is easy to train, he will let you dress him up, brush his teeth, clean his ears, and he is good at letting you know he needs to potty Stuffies are his favorite thing to destroy, otherwise he might get into other things laying around, he is still a puppy. Loves nice, hearty chews to keep him busy. Atlas is getting more comfortable with kisses and hugs. We don't think he was ever cuddled before, still somewhat of a foreign concept to him. good car rider Atlas will be neutered with his adoption. We do not know about kids or cats at this time. We think he would be fine with kiddo's over 9+ years old.

Story
Location: Agoura Hills, CA ***FOSTER OR ADOPTER NEEDED**** Introducing Otis, this stunning liver boy is 1 year 8 months old, a gentle soul with an unknown past and a heart full of love. While we don’t know his full story, we do know he’s still learning what it means to simply be a dog. Shy at first with new people, Otis quickly shows his true colors once he feels safe. Like many Dalmatians, he’s a classic “Velcro dog” — happiest when he’s close to his person, gently pawing for attention and soaking up affection. Otis is wonderfully adaptable. He’s comfortable in calm, quiet spaces but can also thrive in a home with more activity. The perfect fit for him would be a happy balance of both, as he’s an active boy who loves adventure. Car rides make his tail wag, and he’s always eager for a walk or a bit of playtime. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will stay by your side through thick and thin, Otis is ready to be your best friend. Otis is very smart, listens incredibly well, enjoys training, learning new things and is super eager to please. He's been good with kids 14+ Otis needs a home with NO other dogs or cats at this time; this may change with continued training classes and a committed adopter. Could you be the loving home that Otis deserves? Please copy & past the link below into your browser for our application: https://www.jotform.com/form/243374218477059 Questions?

Location: Compton, CA Introducing Jimmy Dogfa, he is the Dog Boss, not really but we tell him he is. Jimmy is 2 years old, so sweet, affectionate, smart and an all-around good boy. He loves his walks, meeting new people, smelling everything and has been good with other dogs. Jimmy has been doing well around kids, age 1 and 3 yrs. He is cautious around cats but then is fine with them. He adores his plush toys with squeakers but is gentle and doesn't rip them the apart. His ideal home would have a nice yard for him to run and play in. He is good as a single dog or with a canine partner. Once play is done, Jimmy loves to take naps. He is terrified of fireworks. He shakes and seeks a place to hide in the quiet. Let's give Jimmy his forever family.

Story
Location: Sylmar, CA ****FOSTER HOME NEEDED URGENTLY***** Introducing Caesar, he just turned 8 years young and a big boy at 72 lbs. Caesar was surrendered to the shelter in December 2022 and adopted. Those people didn't really do much with him, then they rehomed him to a very kind elderly lady about 5 months ago. Sadly, the former owners never mentioned that Caesar has a very high prey drive for small animals, cats, chickens, ducks, etc.. The elderly caregiver lives on a farm. There have been some unfortunate losses of a couple of those small animals and now Caesar has to leave. Caesar is loving, affectionate, active, loves toys, especially chew toys, and does great on walks. He can be slowly introduced to other dogs his size, he does get amped up but after spending extended periods with larger dogs under supervision, he does calm down. He would rather just be with his humans. Caesar loves his humans, even strangers, he is a very good boy and love the attention. He would do fine with teenagers 15+ Could you be the home that gives this sweet boy stability?

Lara loves to run, play and chase with another dog but she is a chow hound who gobbles her food & steals other dog's food, so she must eat food or chew bones in her crate. She is a master hunter for all little critters, so NO cats. We are saying no young children at this time, simply because Lara is all puppy & exuberant. Can you give this little peanut a temp place?

Story
Annabelle is a Courtesy Post only and is not a Second Chance Dog Rescue dog. SCDR is not responsible for any ownership, behavior, health, and representations made by the owner with respect to this dog. You must contact Diana Daniels at 716-912-8733 (call or text) to meet Annabelle    Meet Miss Annabelle! This stunning Pointer mix isn’t just beautiful — she’s the real deal who actually points! Estimated to be around 2–3 years old and weighing about 50 lbs, Annabelle is full of life, joy, and playfulness. She absolutely lives for toys and will happily keep herself entertained for hours. Annabelle is both dog- and cat-friendly, and she adores being around people — she’s a classic “Velcro dog” who loves to be part of the action. She walks nicely on leash, is potty trained, and rides wonderfully in the car. She also does well in her kennel as long as she has some favorite toys or treats to keep her busy. While she’s friendly with other pups, Annabelle prefers not to share her toys, she’ll politely (and sometimes not-so-politely!) make sure everyone knows the ball is hers. Her story is a touching one: after her owner passed away in the Imperial Valley, the remaining family, living out of state, couldn’t take her in. When we met her at the shelter, we knew this smart, loyal girl deserved a fresh start and a family who would truly appreciate her loving heart and playful spirit. Annabelle is spayed, vaccinated, and ready for her forever home — one filled with toys, adventures, and people to love.  Annabelle is available to meet in the San Diego area. For further information or to meet Annabelle, please contact Diana Daniels at 716-912-8733 (call or text)October 14, 2025, 6:45 pm
