Story
Tyson is 10 years old and very active dog. He is curious, highly aware and intelligent as well. He loves to run, play ball and be at home. He is crate trained and crated, since we had our children he has become overly protective of them. He barks a lot, I would recommend an experienced owner or someone who has dealt with Jack Russell’s before . He doesn’t do well being alone for long periods. Ideal person for this would be someone who is home a lot and doesn’t travel too much. As he does have a tendency to get carsick in long car rides. He is extremely loyal dog, he will literally die for you or family so he is a very good guard dog. He is brave , almost fearless.

Story
We thought Hank was a German Shepherd with a little bit of Husky, but after running his DNA, it turns out he's a Husky with a little bit of German Shepherd, among other things. Most surprisingly of all, he's 16% Basset Hound! Rescued from a high-kill shelter with only 3 hours to spare. Now he’s looking for his forever home—one that matches his big heart and high energy. Sweet, goofy, athletic, and playful—perfect for an active person or a home with another medium to large, playful dog. Hank goes to doggy daycare regularly and loves doggy playtime. He hardly has any undercoat, so he doesn't shed like full-breed huskies do. Hank has had professional training and knows many commands. While often petted by kids at the playground, not recommended for homes with small children due to his exuberance. He's still in his puppy phase. He has a mischievous streak and may “borrow” your couch pillows or oven mitts. If you want a dog who will keep things interesting, Handsome Hank is your guy!!

Story
Molly is a purebred Bull Terrier. She loves people (especially men) and children. She took quite a while to get used to my cat but now they are buddies. She does not like small dogs. She is very smart and loving. It breaks my heart giving her up but landlord will not approve her. Pet insurance to March 2026. Prefer an experienced handler who can lead.

Story
Jocelyn was rescued from the Long Beach Shelter. She’s a total sweetheart, loves attention, and can be a total snuggle bug - but can also just relax on her own when you need her too . She’s crate trained and potty trained. Jocelyn has been great with all of my neices and nephews. Unfortunately my decision to rehome her are my long my work hours that have only increased with the holidays (60+ hrs). I’m looking to rehome her to a home that either has a yard for her or at least has an owner that is more available to give her the love , attention, and most importantly enrichment that she deserves.

Story
Everyone welcome Coco Chanel!!  Coco Chanel is a female, 1-year-old, 12-pound Min Pin/Terrier mix that was rescued after being hit by a car and sustaining a badly broken leg. Her owners could not afford treatment and surrendered her to the rescue. After getting evaluated by our vet, it was determined that her leg injury was too bad/old to be corrected and ultimately, her rear hind leg was amputated.  Don’t let this deter you from adopting her, cause Coco is a fabulous dog who has adjusted so well without her leg.  She loves to cuddle and will follow you around wherever you go. She gets along well with all other dogs.  Loves all  people and would make a fantastic family pet for just about any family. Coco has been fully vetted including spay, Rear leg amputation, vaccines, dewormed and microchipped.   If interested in meeting or adopting Coco Chanel, please go to www.LOLR.org and fill out an adoption application.  ##2367200##
