Kiko is a healthy gentleman who thrives on attention and interaction. When he's not cuddling on your lap or playing with his favorite squeaky toys, Kiko loves to explore and get some exercise in a securely fenced yard. He's also a great walking buddy, although he will need a bit of practice on his leash manners. As a housebroken and well-mannered indoor companion, Kiko is ready to bring joy and companionship to his forever home. While he'd love a house with a yard, he's not suited for apartment or condo living. If you're looking for a loyal friend to share your life with, Kiko might be the perfect fit. With his loving personality and adaptable nature, he's sure to steal your heart. No one will ever love you more than Kiko!

Meet Raven! **We adopt our dogs to families within 50 miles of our facility in Malibu, CA.  All applications are screened for compatibility with the dog of interest. We might ask for pictures of your home and yard.  If you are interested in being considered as a potential adopter, please fill out our online application at:  www.ssfdogs.org.  Follow the tabs to 'dogs for adoption'.  Raven is an 8 pound, spayed female  Shih Tzu/Toy Poodle/Yorkie mix, approximately 9 months old. Her personality is most like a toy poodle. She is healthy, sweet and active.  She loves people but is a little bit shy at first, although she can easily be bribed with treats and ultimately likes receiving attention and affection from people.   She will need haircuts so potential adopters are encouraged to inquire locally for prices on grooming.  Ready to Adopt? If you’re prepared to provide Raven with a loving, forever home and live within 50 miles of Malibu, please submit your adoption application at www.ssfdogs.org. Our team will be delighted to discuss details further.

Story
Meet Jang!  He's a vey handsome playful sweet guy!  He is a 8 month old that was rescued from a breeding farm before heading to a dog meat farm in South Korea.  We have partners we work with there that pull these dogs from the worst horrors imaginable.  Many of these dogs start off in horrific puppy mill type facilities on tiny rabbit cage size wire crates in complete filth.  If they are not sold at 6 or 8 weeks then they either stay for a couple years to be used to breed more and then are sold off to the meat trade, or they are sold off right away.  Jindo's and Tosa's are the most common meat type dogs, and are very commonly bred specifically for their meat and the meat farms also act as breeding farms until they reach a good age and weight. South Korea is one of the only countries that actually farms dogs for their meat.   Many restaurants will serve a dish called " bosintang ", which stands for "dog meat soup". It's a popular dish in South  Korea,  and is said to act as an aphrodisiac for men.    Little dogs are used for elixirs and potions.  The younger generation is mostly against this practice and many choose to not eat them, and we can only hope in time with education and generations of change that an end will come to this horrific trade.  Jang and some of his friends have been flown here for a chance at a future and a real life.  These are miracle dogs that they are alive today.  Our adoption fee is $600 which helps offset some of the flight costs.  If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application form at  https://form.jotform.com/oscarlucy/dog-adoption-app March 22, 2025, 9:11 pm
