Story
sweet boy who needs an experienced ownerMeet Blue Blue is a strong and loving 5 year-old Staffie Mix. He is a compact guy weighing about 55 pounds. Everything was going along great for him until his family broke apart. He was then moved into an apartment complex, where they do not allow dogs, so the owners thought of the great idea to lock him up in a bathroom while they are at work. As you can imagine that was not a great solution, so luckily a family friend became aware of this solution and brought it to our attention. Since that time, Blue has lived in foster homes and has been to training. He becomes very attached and can be protective.  He is affectionate, loyal, obedient, moderate temperament and smart. He is also a bit stubborn and needs a strong and firm handler to keep him controlled. He is a blue nose with a silver-blue short coat. He is neutered and up to date on all of his shots. He is lovable, playful and will make a great family pet for anyone. He is also gorgeous to boot.

loving and affectionateThis is beautiful Bella! Bella is a 4 1/2 year old, American Staffordshire Terrier mix. Bella is vetted, potty trained, she's silly and perfection in the home. She loves exploring on walks and chasing after little bunnies. She’s smart, very loyal, and loves car rides. She has been in a few foster homes since we rescued her from Carson shelter a couple years ago. Her ideal home would be quiet, where she can bask in the sun, enjoy her yard, love on her humans and be the center of attention. She does need to be the only dog, since that's where she's happiest. Bella is a gorgeous pup who is affectionate and just amazing. She has the sweetest disposition and is a total love. Bella is looking for a forever home and a family she can love and protect. If you think she would be a great addition to your pack, please submit a completed application a www.doggiebonez.com, so that we can schedule a meet and greet.

Story
Meet wonderful Cash! Cash is a 3-year-old, male, American Staffordshire Terrier. He was rescued off the streets of Tijuana, Mexico, covered with bite marks all over his body. We had never seen a dog with that many injuries. It's a miracle that Cash even survived his attacks. Slowly but surely he is opening up and is showing his playful side. Cash loves people, loves to go on walks, hikes, and even runs. He would do best in a home with a secure yard, where he can run, play and feel safe. Older kids would be a better fit as we have not introduced Cash to small children. He would do best as the only dog, as he was attacked horribly, and has fear issues that can only be addressed through patience, love, and proper introductions. Cash really needs your help. If any dog deserves a family he can call his own, it is beautiful, sensitive Cash. The sooner he can get his safe and fur-ever home, the better. If you think you can be the family that he desperately needs, please open your heart and home to this truly, special boy. If his beautiful photos please you, please submit a completed adoption application found under the forms tab so that we can schedule a meet and greet. He can also be found on all our social media pages IG: @Doggie_Bonez_Inc_ and Facebook: Doggie Bonez. If adoption isn't an option, 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. We much appreciate the help and time of our fosters. You provide all the love, comfort, and safety of a home, and we supply you with everything else you may need, dog food, dog bed, toys, medical attention (if required), etc. If you are interested, please visit www.doggiebonez.com to see all of our available dogs who need a foster family while waiting for their fur-ever home and complete the foster application.September 29, 2023, 3:03 pm

Story
Meet Buddy! Buddy is a two-year-old American Staffordshire Terrier mix ( maybe mixed with Husky due to his beautiful blue and green eyes). He is the happiest boy with an incredible disposition. Buddy loves going on long walks and just loves being with his “people”. He has spent several months living with a trainer and several other dogs and has done amazing. He loves the water and other dogs. He is now in a foster with two other dogs and doing well. Once he’s in a home with a yard, he can decompress and play and let out his energy. Buddy has had extensive training and a trainer will come to the adopter's house to work with the family and show what he can do. He would do best with an active family. He was rescued from the Riverside shelter where he shared his kennel with another dog. He’s a love bug that is so deserving of his loving forever home. Buddy is neutered, microchipped, fully vaccinated, had a blood panel and a full clean bill of health. If you think you are the right family for Buddy, please submit a completed adoption application found under the forms tab so that we can schedule a meet and greet.

Story
Meet Blue! Blue is a 6 1/2-7 years young, Blue Nosed, American Staffordshire Terrier. The last few years of his life, he spent stuck in a kennel in the backyard of someone’s home in Los Angeles. He even had to sleep out in a kennel, which had an old igloo for Blue. It breaks our hearts to think he was out in the cold when he’s so amazingly well behaved inside. He doesn’t chew or anything when left alone. The current foster can leave the backyard door open and he has run of the house and the yard. He's just an all-around great dog. Blue is such an incredibly, sweet soul with so much personality. Some of his favorite things include playing, belly rubs, giving you his paw, snuggling & sleeping! Blue is great on a leash and really does love going on long walks. Anyone going for a car ride? Well, Blue will gladly tag along as your co-pilot. He loves everyone he meets. Smart, obedient, and affectionate. Blue loves being on the couch and, sleep near his loved ones. He's neutered, fully vaccinated, microchipped and, ready for his loving forever family. Best as the only dog and with older children since we have not seen him with really young kids.  If you are interested in meeting, our newest favorite, couch potato, Blue, please submit a completed adoption application found under the forms tab. This way, we can schedule a meet and greet. He can also be found on all our social media pages IG: @Doggie_Bonez_Inc_ and Facebook: Doggie Bonez. If adoption isn't an option, please consider fostering one of our pups. We are a volunteer-run non-profit dog rescue and always welcome new short and/or long term doggie foster families.

Story
Meet Ranger, the athletic dog! Ranger is a handsome 3-year-old brindle boy who is happiest while out walking, exploring, and hanging out with his loved ones. We think Ranger is a Plott Hound mix as he's very light on his feet, can jump pretty high, and is extremely agile. He could be mixed with a Herding breed as well. Ranger is very athletic and very intuitive. He’s so smart, that he can actually open doors!! He loves to walk, jog, and run and would be best suited with an active family. Ranger would do better in a home that has a secure backyard with a 6 feet fence or wall so he can goof around in the yard. He’s a little shy with new people initially, but once he knows you, he will be his silly self and bond quickly. Ranger loves car rides and seems to be happiest as your co-pilot, and your amazing traveling buddy. He does best around other friendly dogs after a slow and proper introduction. Please help Ranger by fostering or adopting this sweet, incredible boy that deserves the most amazing, committed family that can give him the stability, structure, consistency, and training, which we suggest to all of our adopters. If you are interested in this true athlete Ranger, please submit a completed adoption application found under the forms tab. This way, we can schedule a meet and greet. She can also be found on all of our social media pages IG: @Doggie_Bonez_Inc_ and Facebook: Doggie Bonez. If adoption isn't an option, please consider fostering one of our pups. We are a volunteer-run non-profit dog rescue and always welcome new short and/or long-term doggie foster families. We greatly appreciate the help and time of our fosters.
