Story
Daisy has been with us since she was 8 weeks old. Both her parents are pure bred in their own respects, a Chocolate Lab and a Goldendoodle. She came to us with a great personality and was very easy to train. At the time we had 2 other dogs and 2 cats and 2 young children. Daisy is currently 68lbs and is almost 2 years old. She is not spayed. She is up to date on her vaccines and is in great health. Her leash walking skills are still in progress, but she is very eager to be trained is small rewards. We are currently expecting our third child and cannot give the attention needed to continue her training and the love she needs. She has shown some aggression toward our other female dog (also not spayed) we have as well. We have taken time to rehabilitate their relationship, and she has shown promising results. She just needs more time an attention we cannot give her at the moment. Daisy would be a great addition to a family who loves to go for walks and has a lot of love.

Meet my 3-year-old French Bulldog! Sadly, I'm moving and can't take him with me, so I'm looking for his new best friend. He is very hyperactive! He loves his walks and needs a family that can keep up with his zoomies and playfulness He's a total sweetheart-zero history of biting and very friendly. He is also potty trained. (Just a heads up he doesn't do good with cats)

Story
Spike is a loyal dog. He was left in our care by my sister who couldn't have pets where she lives. Its sad to say she has abandoned him with us. My husband and I have 5 other dogs and Spike doesn't get along with one who is a male. He constantly barks when he gets too close and will follow him out of a room. With all the constant barking, we risk being evicted. He loves to go on walks and likes to lay next to someone. He really is a good dog. I hope we can find him a family that will love him immensely.

Pepper

Chihuahua

Male, Senior
Indio, CA
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Pepper was originally the beloved companion of an elderly family member and thrived in a quiet, one-person home with a predictable routine. After her passing, Pepper came to live with our family, but we’ve learned that our busy household is not the right fit for him. Pepper is gentle, affectionate, and bonds closely with his person. He does best when someone is home often and able to take him outside rather than relying on a dog door. A calm home with a grass yard would likely be a good fit. Pepper would be a great match for a single adult or low-activity household seeking a close companion in a calm, stable environment. Pepper has a known heart murmur that has been noted during routine vet exams. No treatment required.
