Story
Keiko is an 11-year-old "puppy" who enjoys sunbathing as much as she still enjoys playing rough with her humans. I've had her for 4 years through many moves, which are starting to take a toll on her. She can be defensive and mistrusting of new people, but settles down after a week of being treated like a princess. She does not do well with other animals in the home, and can be defensive if mad-dogged on the street. I'm looking for her "sundown owner": a stay-at-home or retired adopter who can give her the attention and stability she needs at this stage of life. She is in good health considering her age and has had regular vet care. She enjoys a regular schedule of walks and meal-times, cannot get enough sunbathing, and loves gentle, consistent loving attention. Her first few owners did not care for her well; she has an embedded collar scar and had spinal surgery about 5-6 years ago. Long Beach locals preferred.

Story
The short version: I live in Long Beach City and an unhoused man had Azula. He was going to give her to anyone who wanted her and she needed medical so I asked if I could have her and he said yes. I got her the medical she needed and she is healthy, happy, playful and snuggly. She's very food motivated and whip smart. She learns quickly! She loves to play ball at the park and play with her stuffies and chew bones. She learning not to be mouthy and is very expressive! I'm looking to find her a home as my 9 year old Staffy is not thrilled and she's scared of him (he has only corrected her a couple times but they are not bonding -they do walk together nicely for walkies). Azula would be wonderful in a home with someone who is active and likes to walk and play with her. Someone who can spend a lot of time with her! She loves to snuggle and sleeps in bed with me.

Story
Hi! My name is Sonny! I turned ONE in August. I am a gentleman AND a scholar. I am the chill guy of the bunch and will lay on the couch with you all day for a Netflix marathon. I'm into toys and the outdoors and I love kisses and snuggles. I have the best manners and I will protect you (if you want me to). I am very athletic and would fit in well with almost any single person or family. Just message my mom if you'd like to meet me! -Sonny and his 8 siblings were born to a stray dog that was fostered in my home. They have been raised with so much love and consistency. Sonny is a very special and affectionate boy who loves to please. He is a great listener and very emotionally intelligent. I would love to keep every single puppy, but I had 4 dogs before the unexpected 10 arrived. The owners of all 6 who have been adopted keep in touch and are obsessed with their babies!

Good with dogs,
Story
i’m looking to rehome my dog, a very friendly and affectionate young pup around 6-8 months old. He is extremely active and playful and would do best in a home with plenty of space and someone who has the time and energy to continue his training. I rescued him from Main Street where I work, and while he has such a loving personality, my current work schedule doesn’t allow me to give him the time and training he truly deserves at this young age. He’s s an absolute sweetheart and would thrive with a wonderful family or individual who can provide consistency, patience, and love. I want to make sure he goes to a safe, caring home where he can grow and be his best self.I’ve been fostering Bruno since I’ve found him but unfortunately I can’t meet all of his needs including training and financial needs at the moment he’s in need of shots

Story
Bella is about 13 years old. She’s very sweet and wants a lot of love/belly rubs. A lot of pet hotels would call her “happy Bella” and praise how sweet and happy she is. She is older now and has a bad cataract in both eyes. She has had a hard time controlling her bowels and with two toddlers in the house that gets overwhelming. She needs a home where she can go outdoors a lot quicker than an apartment. Kids of all ages love Bella and attach to her so quickly !
