Story
Loyal Companion In Need of a Calm HomeSeven years ago, Malta’s rescue photo stole our hearts. A Puerto Rican Sato with soulful eyes and endless resilience, he became part of our family alongside his littermate brother, Móle.Malta is a 7-year-old, 40-lb medium-sized Sato: athletic, affectionate, playful, crate- and e-collar-trained, chipped, vaccinated, and great with other dogs. He loves beach runs, trails, daycare playtime, and curling up close with his people.Since the arrival of our baby, Malta has struggled to fully settle into the changes that come with a busier home. We’ve realized he would thrive best in a calm, experienced, child-free environment where he can feel secure.He does have anxiety around unfamiliar people and needs patient introductions, but he bonds deeply with his humans.We’re in Long Beach, CA; we'd love his new home to be close, and we can support the transition with his trainer and daycare. Also open to the Bay Area and the Southwest if the fit is right.

Story
Blackie is the sweetest baby. He’s 1 1/2 years old, extremely friendly and energetic. He’s great around other animals and people no matter the size, he just wants to be friends with everyone. I’m a student and will be traveling abroad and unfortunately I won’t be able to take him with me. I’m looking for a parent or family who has the time to be active with him and give him lots of love.

Story
Three months ago, this sweet stray dog —now named Cleo— was sadly abandoned and found hiding in my driveway. She was exhausted, hungry, frightened, and in desperate need of help. After taking her to the vet, I learned that Cleo had a large hernia that made simple tasks incredibly difficult for her and required multiple surgeries. Luckily, Cleo is a resilient gal and is now healed, thriving and looking for her forever home 😊 We’re looking for the right person or family to adopt Cleo and open their home to this tough little lady. If you think that could be you — or if you know someone who may be interested — please reach out. A little more about Cleo: • 12 pounds • Chiweenie/terrier mix with a big heart and even bigger ears • Estimated to be around 7 years old • Spayed and up to date on all her shots • Loves naps, long walks, sunshine, and curling up into a little croissant • Friendly with people, kids and other dogs (even the bigger ears)

Story
This is Peluche (Spanish for Plushie)! Peluche was born on November 19, 2020 which will make him six years old this upcoming November! Although he may look fluffy and cuddly don't let him deceive you as he is very good at defending his home. Plushie loves to get hugs and give kisses as he is very protective of his owner. Peluche is very sociable with other dogs as he has grown up with four other dogs; his two brothers and parents, outside of the home in our backyard. If you are looking for a dog who is not afraid to defend his home then Peluche is the dog for you. Several animals such as racoons, opossums, mice, and other small animals have wandered into our yard and many have... erhm... "stayed" in our yard (if you know what I mean) with Peluche as happy as can be besides them. Peluche would most likely benefit from an owner who is interested in hunting or lives near forests/woods so Peluche can "chase" other animals. All in all here is to hoping that Peluche can find a great home!
