Story
Meet Lily ❤️ Lily is an incredibly sweet, loving dog who is great with kids, other dogs, and cats. She’s crate trained, a fantastic cuddler, and very smart—she’s even figured out how to open doors with handles. 😂 Lily’s love tank is never quite full. She loves being around her people and will happily soak up as much affection as you’ll give her. Unfortunately, I’m going through a divorce and our family circumstances have changed. I’ve tried hard to make our new situation work, but Lily simply isn’t getting the time and attention she deserves. This is an incredibly difficult decision, and we will be very sad to see her go. More than anything, we want to find Lily a home where she’ll be loved, included, cuddled, and truly part of the family. She is a special girl with so much love to give.💗

Story
Hi, I’m Zorro. I’m 1 year 8 months old, and my family surrendered me to the Baldwin Park ACC because they said they had “too many dogs.” Zorro is currently safe with his foster family in Knoxville, Tennessee, where he’s beginning to decompress and learn what stability feels like. He is a 60 pound male Belgian Malinois with a sweet, affectionate nature and a strong desire to be close to his people. He loves one-on-one time and often leans in for comfort, showing just how much he values connection. He shows interest in other dogs and has the potential to do well with proper introductions, though he is still building his confidence in new environments. Like many dogs who have experienced sudden change, Zorro benefits from patience, consistency, and a calm, reassuring routine to help him continue coming out of his shell. During his time at the shelter, volunteers noted how well-mannered and gentle he was outside of the kennel. Given the chance, he showed his true personality — a loyal, soft-hearted companion who simply wants to feel safe and belong. Zorro has been through uncertainty, but he hasn’t lost his ability to trust or love. With the right home, he will continue to grow into a confident and deeply devoted companion.

Story
Hi, I’m Petunia. I’m a 9 years old, senior girl who came to Baldwin Park Animal Care Center as a stray with a painful hip injury before getting my second chance. Petunia is a petite 30 pound brindle sweetheart currently safe with her foster in Los Angeles, California and is available for adoption. Despite everything she has been through, she has never stopped loving people. She has the gentlest soul and is happiest when she is receiving affection and spending time with her humans. Petunia gets along well with both dogs and cats, making her an easy companion for many homes. She has a calm, loving personality and simply wants to be close to the people she trusts. After arriving at the shelter with a hip injury, she received surgery and has healed beautifully. Now that her recovery is behind her, she is ready to focus on what she has always deserved — a loving forever home. Petunia’s journey to safety was not an easy one, but she never gave up. Today, she is finally able to relax, feel safe, and enjoy being loved. All she needs now is a family of her own to give her the happy ending she has been waiting for. Petunia is proof that even after hardship, a loving heart can continue to shine. If you’re looking for a gentle, affectionate companion, Petunia would love to meet you.

Story
Hi, I’m Luna. I’m 1 year old, and my family surrendered me to Baldwin Park Animal Care Center without giving a reason. Luna is a 50-pound female Husky mix currently with her foster in Washington, where she is slowly settling in and beginning to feel safe. She is a very special girl who has already been through a lot in her short life. In the shelter, she was timid and unsure, often overwhelmed by her surroundings. Now, in a calmer environment, Luna is starting to come out of her shell. She is still building confidence around people, but she is improving every day with patience and gentle guidance. She is dog-friendly and benefits from being around other dogs who help her feel more secure. Luna will thrive in a quiet, loving home that gives her the time and space she needs to fully open up. With consistency and kindness, she will continue to grow into a confident and devoted companion.
