Story
We got 29lb 2year old Freddy 6 weeks ago from a rehome situation in Perris, CA. We wanted to get another male dog since our 9 year old Frenchie passed away 2 monthsk ago. The main reason was a buddy for our 7yr old female pug. Freddy is a sweet boy and listens well but he is really alpha and has been rough with our Pug. He also gets anxious when people come over and has nipped when people try to pet him. We want a mellow dog that will be chill with our Pug. This is really hard but long term he’s not a fit for our home!

Story
Tyson is 10 years old and very active dog. He is curious, highly aware and intelligent as well. He loves to run, play ball and be at home. He is crate trained and crated, since we had our children he has become overly protective of them. He barks a lot, I would recommend an experienced owner or someone who has dealt with Jack Russell’s before . He doesn’t do well being alone for long periods. Ideal person for this would be someone who is home a lot and doesn’t travel too much. As he does have a tendency to get carsick in long car rides. He is extremely loyal dog, he will literally die for you or family so he is a very good guard dog. He is brave , almost fearless.

Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
I took him in from an abusive situation less than a week ago and got him bathed and started feeding him properly. My apartment is far too small for him and he has to stay in here all day while I’m at work and he’s used to being a completely outside dog. Unfortunately I can’t keep him more than a couple more days and I’m trying to avoid bringing him to a shelter. I’m not entirely sure of his breed but my best guess is husky and golden retriever

Harley is a sweet mellow boy at 2 years old. He loves other dogs, even small ones. He loves all people, even babies. Harley has a very kind disposition which truly makes him a gem. He walks on a leash without pulling even if he sees another dog or a squirrel, as he is patient. Harley learned basic commands very quickly and is very house-trained. He would love a forever home full of love. Harley loves car rides and visiting new places. He is wonderful at restaurants. Harley likes napping after walks and is always low key. He is a very gentle soul seeking his forever home that is full of love.

Handsome Hank

Mixed Breed (Large) Husky

Story
We thought Hank was a German Shepherd with a little bit of Husky, but after running his DNA, it turns out he's a Husky with a little bit of German Shepherd, among other things. Most surprisingly of all, he's 16% Basset Hound! Rescued from a high-kill shelter with only 3 hours to spare. Now he’s looking for his forever home—one that matches his big heart and high energy. Sweet, goofy, athletic, and playful—perfect for an active person or a home with another medium to large, playful dog. Hank goes to doggy daycare regularly and loves doggy playtime. He hardly has any undercoat, so he doesn't shed like full-breed huskies do. Hank has had professional training and knows many commands. While often petted by kids at the playground, not recommended for homes with small children due to his exuberance. He's still in his puppy phase. He has a mischievous streak and may “borrow” your couch pillows or oven mitts. If you want a dog who will keep things interesting, Handsome Hank is your guy!!
