Story
Hazel is a sweet and energetic 3 year old pitbull mix. We adopted her about 1 year ago and unfortunately due to our living situation we are no longer able to keep her. She is house trained, harness and leash trained and gets along well with our other dog. I have not had her around cats yet so I am not too sure how she would react around them. She is crate trained. We have two young kids and she is great with them. Although she is a great dog here are a few things you should know about her. We were told she is allergic to poultry and her belly would break out in a rash so we have her on a NO poultry diet. Additionally we use a special shampoo and conditioner when we bath her because she has dandruff and will flake all over the house. She is great around people she knows but she can be skittish around new people coming into the house. She has never bitten anyone but she has been known to park at new people coming in until she warms up to them.

Story
Hello, everyone! I'm Sunny! I am 17 years young (that's because I don't act my age.) I am a sweet, affectionate, adorable boy who loves attention, I love to be stroked and petted, love to be cuddled! I will hop right into my bed when it's time for my human to read or watch TV and when she drinks her coffee in the morning. I like to cuddle with her on the couch, too, especially when she rubs my belly! I like to take short walks and I like the other dogs I meet. I have quite a few foster brothers and sisters in my foster home, and we all get along famously! It's nice having a pack after being an only dog my whole life, although I'm OK being an "only" too. My former family loved me from when I was a puppy, but their circumstances changed and they had to give me to BROC after much soul searching and tears. I told them not to worry, because I know I will be OK. My aunties here will make sure of it. I am pretty chill. I rarely, if ever, bark, even if the rest of the pack is going at it like the world is ending! I like to move with the pack, though, as we follow Mom from room to room. What I am trying to tell you is that I'm overall a great dog for just about anybody who wants a chill guy who is low maintenance. I have had all my shots and am neutered and microchipped. If you have room in your heart and home for me, please complete an online adoption application at https://bichonrescueoc.org/dog-adoption/ Please visit our website www.bichonrescueoc.org to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs.

Story
Hello! My name is Charli and I am a senior 8-pound male Maltese mix. I am a super sweet boy - smart and affectionate! I just like to chill and explore the yard. I like short walks but am just as happy cuddling with my human. I never bark and rarely whine, and am a gentleman to people I meet. I am housebroken but do not know how to use a doggy door, so please remember to let me out once in a while. I am the perfect calm sweetheart for someone who is home most of the time and wants a cuddly companion. I am loved and well-cared for with my foster family but I am looking for my forever home. I have had a thorough health examination, Im microchipped and I will have a dental cleaning prior to adoption. If you have room in your heart and home for me, please complete an adoption application. https://bichonrescueoc.org/adoption-application Please visit our website www.bichonrescueoc.org to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs.
