Story
Milo is estimated to be around 6-7 years old. He was found 5 weeks ago in Tijuana in heartbreaking condition—extremely emaciated, just skin and bones, and suffering from severe mange. After a few weeks of treatment, he has made great progress and has been cleared to go into a home. He has an incredibly sweet, gentle personality and gets along well with other dogs. He would thrive in a home environment where he can continue gaining weight, regrowing his coat, and receiving the love and care he deserves. Despite being kept in a small kennel during recovery, he did his best to keep it clean and waited until he is taken outside to urinate and defecate, which suggests he has good house manners. He loves cuddling and going for walks. He has come so far and truly deserves the chance to heal and finally enjoy a loving, forever home.

Story
Poppy is a loving, affectionate 7-year-old Bluetick Coonhound/Treeing Walker Coonhound mix with a heart of gold. My wife and I adopted her from a shelter in Virginia when she was a puppy. Poppy is equally happy going on mile-long hikes or snuggling up with us and asking for belly rubs at the end of the day, but will definitely need lots of space to run around due to her breed's athleticism and high energy. She loves a good game of fetch and knows basic commands like "sit," "down," and "stay/wait." Poppy will need someone who is comfortable with giving oral medications and shots since she has environmental and food allergies, and she is currently on a special diet (Royal Canin). We are rehoming Poppy since she is nervous around children and had one bite incident involving our toddler, who crawled on top of her when our backs were turned. It was a very minor bite but we can't take more risks, and Poppy deserves a home with no young kids where she can feel fully safe/comfortable.

Story
Meet Brutus 🐾 Brutus is my beautiful harlequin Great Dane and truly the definition of a gentle giant. Due to me relocating, I’m faced with the incredibly difficult decision of finding him a new home. Brutus has an amazing temperament. He is wonderful with children and other animals and has such a sweet, loving personality. He loves being around people and would make an incredible addition to the right family. He’s a great walker, loves getting outside, and definitely enjoys his playtime. Despite his size, he’s gentle, affectionate, and incredibly loving—especially with kids. This is not a decision I’m making lightly. Brutus deserves a home where he will be loved, included as part of the family, and given the attention and companionship he deserves. I’m much more concerned with finding the right home than simply finding a home quickly. I would love for Brutus to go to someone familiar with large breeds or Great Danes and who understands just how special these dogs are.

Spaniel (Unknown Type) Mixed Breed (Medium)

Female, 2 yrs 8 mos
Coronado, CA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Sadie! Sadie and Val are a bonded pair of sweet, sensitive girls looking for a calm home where they can settle in together and continue building confidence at their own pace. They can be shy when first meeting new people, but once they feel comfortable, their fun and goofy personalities really start to shine. These two absolutely love toys and become much more playful and interactive as they settle in. Watching them grow more confident and silly over time has been incredibly rewarding, and they truly thrive with patience, routine, and understanding. They would do best in a quieter home with a secure yard and adopters willing to give them time to decompress and adjust. They are still gaining confidence on leash, so continued positive reinforcement and patience will go a long way. Sadie and Val are looking for a home that will give them the time and support they need to continue blossoming outside of the shelter environment. In return, they will reward their people with lots of laughs, sweet moments, and the joy of watching their personalities continue to grow.
