Story

WILL WAIVE ADOPTION FEE FOR RIGHT HOME Indy is an active, sweet, affectionate pup, and extremely smart. She is approximately 1 year old and has been with us since she was about 12 weeks old. It breaks our our hearts to rehome, but she has a high prey drive and does not get along with our cats. Otherwise, she is house trained and knows basic commands (sit, lay, leave it, wait, etc). We have worked with a professional trainer, but she could still use help with leash reactivity - she is not aggressive and gets along with all dogs at daycare/boarding, but is a frustrated greeter on leash. She does not have separation anxiety, but is definitely happiest when she can be close to people. She would do best with a family that will spend time at home with her, as well as take her for daily walks and will take her training to the next level.

Story

Hello! I’m Kara, a 6 year old Anatolian. I am soft and fluffy and enjoy cuddles and giving kisses. I love to run and tackle my big brother. I grew up on a 9 acre avocado and fruit orchard and protected my human family from coyotes. We moved 3 years ago to a small yard and now my brother and I have no room to run. We get walked 3 times a day but we miss running around at top speed and protecting our property day and night. My brother is my best friend so we must go together.

Story

Hi, Kobe is 6 months old and we rescued him from SPCA. He is very playful and needs a big yard to run and play. He has been around our 7-year-old son and our cat since he was 6 weeks old and he is used to both of them. He likes to chase the cat and play with her but she doesn't like that very much. Kobe will do really well with other dogs or in a home with a fenced yard. He is trained to go outside and loves to be the center of attention.

Story

COURTESY POST - WE ARE COURTESY POSTING TO HELP FIND AN ADOPTER OR FOSTER Spoc is a little on the shy side, and has been overlooked. His more outgoing kennel mates run to the the front for attention, which leaves Spoc in the background as he is more timid. But that doesn't mean this boy doesn't want to be loved and have a home to call his own. Will that be you? Can you be Spoc's hero? Spoc is now out of the shelter and badly needs a dental, which his rescue is getting done for him. He then needs a loving forever home, or foster home until a permanent home is found. Preferably in the Orange County area or willing to travel once monthly on Saturdays to the rescue's adoption events. My name is SPOC I am described as a male, black and white Terrier mix. The shelter thinks I am about 6 years old. I weigh approximately 20.00 lbs. Please feel free to reach out to us with questions. Thank you!
