Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Lobo came to Shamrock Rescue Foundation when his owner became too ill to care for him. He’s a perfect dog – a long, lanky boy who’s gentle and sweet. He loves people and other dogs and gets along well with both. He likes to play with his doggy friends but also enjoys hanging out with people. Everyone who meets him adores him. He’s not a small boy, but he doesn’t act like a big, pushy dog. He’s gentle and calm and will make a great companion for nearly anyone. He’d do well with a dog friend or as the only dog. He’s really a great pup. He’s microchipped, fully vaccinated, and recently had a dental cleaning.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 11, 2025, 3:42 pm

Size

Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Tom! He likes hanging out with other dogs, just chilling, but enjoys hanging with people more. He's a big love who likes to lean against people and get a head scratch or butt rub. His previous owner took him on lots of adventures before his life changed and he could no longer keep him. So Tom enjoys the outdoors - hiking is a favorite activity. Tom is a real charmer with his beautiful brindle coat and chow-Lab-who-knows-what-else mix. He's smart too. He knows sit, down and shake, and we bet there are more tricks in his repertoire. Charlie is 7, neutered, microchipped and healthy. He does great with other dogs and would probably love another canine friend to hang out with. Check out Tom -- he is definitely a keeper!!!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 24, 2024, 12:12 am

Story
Do you even recognize this gorgeous diva? Sammie was rescued from a sure death in a Los Angeles shelter with her 6 puppies. She was “living” (more like barely surviving) in a burned out abandoned building during all the rains. She had lost her fur from stress and starvation just trying to keep her babies alive She came into rescue scared and broken, but just LOOK at what love can do!! Sammie finished raising her pups and they are off to homes because people (of course) loves puppies but PLEASE help us make sure this sweet mama gets a chance at a furever home! Sammie is still young, she loves to play and cuddle she might need a little work on her manners generally but she’s very smart and is totally trainable! She would do best in a home without cats though as she is cat-reactive Can you share so we can get her story out there?? We realllly want her to find a furever home! it’s time! Let’s make sure all the pain and suffering she went through is washed away by all the love and comfort in her future she deserves it.You can foster to adopt or do a meet and greet! just DM @tonksfelinefoster for more info!   For a complete list of our pets and photos please visit our website fochp.org  April 27, 2025, 5:42 pm
