Story
This is Chase. He is a 7 year old Australian sheaperd and blue healer mix. He is extremely smart. He was adopted at Priceless Pets in Chino Hills in 2019. We are very attached to each other. He will walk by my side without a leash and when he comes to you he sits at your feet and hugs your body with his. He grew up with 2 other dogs, one bigger and one smaller. Gentle with people and great with my 6 year old daughter. He must have been trained before I adopted him. He is used to being in the back yard all day and sleeping in the garage. He has lived indoors with me for a year and did great, but that was years ago. Looking for a loving adoptive home because I am unable to take him with me to my next home.

Story
This is Maker. He also responds to his prior name Jacob. He is 9 years old and very affectionate. He is 85 pounds of constant tail wagging and will endlessly lick you unless you tell him to stop. He grew up in a pack with two medium sized dogs. He is very gentle with my 6 year old daughter. He spends his days in the back yard, and nights in the garage. He did live indoors with me for a year and did great, but it's been years since his indoor days. Looking for a loving adoptive home. I adopted him from Priceless Pets in Chino Hills in 2017. Great with kids and other dogs.

Story
Pet was acquired through a friend that was no longer able to be kept. We took it along and found a home. Another dog got involved in home and wasn’t getting along w other pet. Has minor behavioral issues with strangers. Prefer dog with a comfortable home where he can be kept. Shelter is my least option for now.

Story
Berry is one of our sanctuary pups and is not available for adoption. Please help us support Berry by donating in his name.Hello! My name is Berry, and I am a great catch for those preferring a more mature companion! I am a super sweet boy--smart and affectionate, too! I'm what they call "sight impaired." I do fine once I know my way around my surroundings, but I like my humans to be close by to reassure me that I'm safe. I'm really good on my walks, and of course being a senior I like my walks slow and short. I'm not boring, though! My foster mom says I have a definite silly side, too. If you want a dignified, easygoing gentleman to keep you company, then I'm your guy. 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, I’m 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-applicatio

Story
Meet Sunny !! Sunny is available for adoption, but HE IS IN SANCTUARY, which means BROC will support his care and needs for the rest of his life. Hi, I’m Sunny!  Can  you believe I’m 17 years old?  Me neither! I may have the years, but I sure don’t act them—I still bounce, dance, and prance around the house like a pup. I’ve got a silly, goofy streak that makes everyone laugh, and a sweet heart that just wants to be near my people.   Even though I don’t let age slow me down, I do need a little extra care these days—things like vet visits, medicine, and the comforts that help me keep living my best (and silliest) life.   Your support helps me keep dancing through my golden years, making people smile, and soaking up every moment of love and joy. Thank you for being part of my story—you’re the sunshine that keeps me going! Sunny is adoptable to someone willing to take on his special needs. If you would like to help support Sunny, please visit our website at bichonrescueoc.org and click the donate button.
