Story

It is with a heavy heart and disbelief I am making this post. I am looking for a good home for my 11 month old (Nala). I got Nala at 12 weeks old in from San Diego humane society. I personally house, crate, potty trained her, and socializing with other Dogs. I was in an abusive relationship and had to escape in August and moved to a place that didn’t allow Dogs. Because of this unforeseen move I had to find a foster for her till I could find a place that allowed dogs. The foster home did not take care of her the way I was promised. She was given no rules and free rein for 2 months. Later I found out the lady was acting as if my Dog was her fur baby. Once I moved to my own apartment November 1, 2025 I scooped up Nala and brought her home. Unfortunately the bond I had with her was ruined. She has been misbehaving in ways that I can’t fix. She peed on the couch, rug, many blankets, eaten many blankets and this is a constant struggle.

Story

Charlie is a great, energetic, loving dog. He loves to be outside and is always up for an adventure, whether it be a walk or a drive in the car. I first got Charlie when I was in middle school from a friend, and we have been best mates since. Charlie is 9 years old and will be turning 10 in April. Im looking for a safe home, someone who is kind and secure, who will fulfill his needs, such as always being there for him and giving him the attention he needs. Looking for a full-time home for Charlie, and I will go to great lengths to get that for him. Charlie is a loyal, handsome, and small, but mighty! He's full of energy and is very bright and smart.

Story

Scout and Hunter are brothers who were adopted at about 4 months old from a shelter. They are now 8 years old. They are extremely kind and fun dogs. But they are also very energetic. They love nuzzling in for pets and playing "catch me if you can". They need plenty of exercise. They love walking or running, but are not very interested in fetch. They are e-collar trained to heel, sit, down, stay, and at ease. They both also have what the vet says is DLE, causing pigmentation loss in their noses, and with Scout scabbing on his nose and ears. Antibiotics and steroids were effective, but a long term solution has not been found. Unfortunately we have moved to a home with almost no yard, and now have multiple young children, and they are not getting the attention and exercise they deserve. They are very kind with our children. We love them and want them to go somewhere they can live out the second half of their life how they should. A big yard and plenty of exercise is a must. Crate trained.

Baz

German Shepherd Dog Great Pyrenees

Male, Young

Laguna Niguel, CA

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet Baz, our 91 lb 3 y/o German Shepherd mix. Baz is an amazing dog. He is affectionate and intelligent. He likes to train but doesn’t need a ton to tire him out. He’s a sensitive dog who responds well to structure, clear boundaries and praise. He does have some behavioral struggles. We spent thousands of dollars on a 2 month board and train last year, and have continued with private sessions with a new trainer in the last few months. His dog reactivity and overall obedience has improved drastically. But he did attack our other dog recently and has started growling at my wife, who is pregnant. For everyone’s safety and well being, we have to rehome Baz before the baby comes. It is not a good situation for us, or for him. We’ve spent a year investing time and resources into his training, hoping it would be enough, but he needs more. Baz is in tact and up to date on all vaccinations. He is fully e-collar and crate trained. He loves to play tug and knows a bunch of command

Daisy

Mixed Breed (Medium)

Female, Young

Ladera Ranch, CA

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Daisy (3 years old) is a loving rescue who is affectionate, energetic, playful, curious, smart, friendly & alert. She enjoys snuggles on couch, belly rubs, giving kisses, playing fetch and walks. She is social and behaves well with other dogs and people of all ages. She can be timid around new people but warms up fairly quickly. Daisy is a high energy/alert dog, but can also be nervous out on walks due to triggers such as loud noises and new environments that can lead her to pull at times. She's enrolled in pack walking with a professional trainer that is helping her gain confidence and walk properly on leash. She is currently owned by a retired female who has some physical limitations that make walking the dog and managing heavier physical tasks difficult which is the reason for her rehoming.

Mosey

Australian Shepherd Australian Cattle Dog

San Juan Capistrano, CA

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs special attention, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Mosey Fields, a very special puppy who is just under one year old. Mosey has a neurological condition, most likely Cerebral Hypoplasia, which makes him a special-needs dog. Despite his challenges, Mosey is a joyful and big-hearted pup. We recently put him in a jacuzzi with a swim vest, and he learned a lot about connecting his body with his brain. Initially, Mosey used to squirm on the floor like a reptile, but now he walks and romps around without a harness. Although he still does well with a harness for stability, he can now walk by himself in a large carpeted bedroom area. Mosey has made great progress - he has learned to track, make eye contact, jump on and off the couch, and loves to cuddle. He has also been playful around other dogs and adores people. This little fighter will benefit from a wheelchair and will thrive in a loving home. Consider making him a part of your family, and he will return the love and continue to grow into the best version of himself. If you're interested in adopting Mosey, please fill out an application at www.doggiebonez.com. You can also check out our social media pages on Instagram (@Doggie_Bonez_Inc_) and Facebook (Doggie Bonez) to see more of Mosey's cuteness. Our dog adoption fee, which includes vaccinations, fecal testing, wellness exams, microchipping, spaying, or neutering, is $500. If adoption isn't feasible, please consider fostering one of our pups. We are a volunteer-run non-profit dog rescue and always welcome new short or long-term doggie foster families. Doggie Bonez will provide you with everything you need, including dog food, a bed, toys, medical attention (if required), and more. So, if you're interested, please visit www.doggiebonez.com to see all of our available dogs who need a foster family while waiting for their forever home and complete the foster application.November 2, 2024, 7:31 pm
