Story
This one-year-old Lab/Malinois mix has more energy than a toddler after three Capri Suns. Faith is a beautiful blend of two incredible working breeds, which means she’s basically the canine equivalent of a Navy Seal who also bakes cookies for the neighbors.She was recently surrendered for “chewing” behaviors… but let’s be real, if you left us bored with no job, we’d probably chew the furniture too. Faith just needs a positive outlet for her energy, whether that’s agility, hiking, or finally helping you finish that “Couch to 5K” program you downloaded in 2019. What you’ll love about Faith:She’s sweeter than grandma’s homemade pie Gets along great with other dogs Has a zest for life that’s downright contagious Previously lived with cats (though she did think “tag, you’re it!” was the game of choice)Faith is scheduled for her spay and updated rabies vaccine on October 7th—after that, she’ll be polished, ready, and waiting for her forever home.If you’re looking for a sidekick with unmatched enthusiasm, unlimited cuddles, and the drive to keep up with even your wildest adventures, have a little Faith—she just might be your girl.

Story
MEET BENTLEY — THE GERMAN SHEPHERD WHO RUNS ON PURE ROCKET FUEL If you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to share your home with a hummingbird that drinks three cans of energy drinks and then decides to pursue a career in special ops… may we present: Bentley, 8 months old, 100% German Shepherd, and approximately 247% enthusiasm.Bentley is a happy-go-lucky adventure machine with a heart full of love and a brain that absolutely needs a job. This is not your “let’s binge Netflix and contemplate the meaning of squirrels” type of dog. Oh no. Bentley is more of a James Bond, but if James Bond was distracted by tennis balls and occasionally ate the mission briefing.Think: “Bentley, stay.”Bentley: “I hear you, but also… what if we ran laps around the sun instead?” Special Skill: Water-Bucket ArchitectBentley’s personal enrichment activity is tipping over every water bucket we give him. Every. Single. One.We refill it.He tips it.We clean it.He watches proudly as though he’s presenting his dissertation on fluid dynamics.We don’t understand it, but he’s passionate about it, and we support his dreams. What Bentley Needs:• A home with structure, training, and plenty of exercise• Someone who appreciates an athletic, brilliant, slightly chaotic goofball• A buddy dog who doesn’t mind Bentley’s “bucking bronco” greeting style• Cat-free living, because Bentley doesn’t understand personal space, and cats do (loudly). Bentley is gorgeous, smart, loving, and overflowing with potential. In the right home, this boy is going to shine brighter than a shepherd who just discovered a laser pointer.If you’re ready for a new best friend, action partner, and personal fitness coach, come meet Bentley today.He’s ready for missions, memories, and maybe—just maybe—a water bowl he can finally conquer.Contact the Whitmore Animal Shelter (760)935-4734 Or apply to adopt https://www.jotform.com/form/250785086712159#monocountyanimalservices #adoptdontshop #germanshepherdpuppy #gsp #BentleyBond #shelterdogsrock

Story
Do you like adventures? Spontaneous dance parties? Being loved so hard you question your ability to breathe? Perfect — because Negan is ready to turn your ordinary life into a highlight reel.This 2-year-old Lab mix is 60-65 pounds of muscle, mischief, and pure joy. He doesn’t walk — he struts. He doesn’t wag — he oscillates at lightning speed. Basically, if happiness had a physical form, it would look exactly like Negan (and it would be covered in dog hair).Negan loves other dogs but needs to find his fellow extroverts. He approaches play with the delicate grace of a rhinoceros in a china shop and is known for enthusiastically violating personal bubbles. We recommend him for homes with doggy friends who share his `all in` philosophy and don`t mind a sudden, playful burst of chocolate Lab.He might greet you by launching himself into your arms. Not out of malice — just uncontainable love and a questionable sense of physics. For this reason, homes with very small children might not be the best fit — unless your toddler is secretly training for the rodeo. Once his engine runs down Negan transforms. After he`s had his fill of zoomies and chaos, he gladly, professionally, and immediately claims his spot. He doesn`t just rest; he becomes a premium-grade, ultra-soft, chocolate-colored fixture on our office couch.Negan is a lover of all people, friendly, affectionate, and adorable—whether he`s running full tilt or snoring softly next to your paperwork. If your home has a designated play area and a high-traffic snuggle zone, and you’re ready to trade perpetual boredom for predictable, hilarious, and uncontrollable joy, then Negan is your guy!

Story
Ahoy, Mateys! Meet Captain Jack!We`re putting out an SOS for a loving home for our seriously handsome one-year-old Pitbull Mix, Captain Jack! As you might guess from his name and his recent history, this guy is a true adventurer—he was recently surrendered because of his ambitious escape habits. But don`t worry, we promise he`s ready to drop anchor in a secure, loving home! We just need someone who can outsmart a very clever dog! Why Captain Jack Needs You: A True SoftieWhile he might be a little nervous when first meeting new humans (a good reason to come prepared with tasty treats!), give him just a little time to adjust, and you`ll find he is a total softie through and through! Forget the high seas; all Captain Jack really wants is a cozy couch and endless belly rubs. His Resume is Stellar:Age: 1 year oldBreed: Pitbull MixPrevious Experience: He has successfully co-existed with other dogs, children, men, and women! Talk about a well-rounded crew!Talents: He absolutely adores toys and will happily entertain himself (or you!) for hours. Plus, he already knows some basic obedience commands—he`s smart and ready to learn more!Navigating Companion Ships (Other Dogs)While he`s totally focused on his toy stash and doesn`t pay much attention to the other dogs here at the shelter, we think he`d do best with a specific type of companion. Due to a few unfortunate `run-ins` with intact males during his previous adventures, Captain Jack is likely seeking a calm, spayed lady dog companion who can show him the ropes of domestic bliss! Set Sail for Forever!This amazing guy is truly just a Captain waiting for his ship to come in and sail him out of the shelter and into his forever home. He`s a loyal, loving, and funny companion who is ready to flourish under your love and care. All he asks is for an extremely secure fence (we`re talking Fort Knox levels!) or someone committed to keeping him safe on a leash, so his adventuring days are kept to walks and playtime!Ready to be Captain Jack’s First Mate? Please give us a call or stop by the shelter during visiting hours to meet this incredible boy! Let`s get this handsome pirate his permanent treasure chest!Give the Whitmore Animal Shelter a call(760)935-4734#AdoptCaptainJack #PirateDog #PitbullMix #AdoptDontShop #EscapeArtist #ForeverHome #RescueDog

Story
Meet Lilly — as sweet as her name and twice as wiggly!If sunshine, flowers, and pure joy teamed up and decided to become a dog… they’d become Lilly. This 3.5-year-old pitbull mix is ALL charm, ALL love, and ALL wiggles, wrapped in a gorgeous charcoal-and-white coat and topped off with a smile that could power the entire shelter.Resume Highlights:• Professional cuddler• Full-time tail-wagging enthusiast• Part-time toy surgeon — she will remove fluff “for safety reasons”• Former roommate to dogs and children• WWE style wrestler with her fellow K9 friends In the shelter, Lilly prefers dogs who have a gentle vibe and don’t storm her personal bubble like they’re breaking into the Kool-Aid Man’s house. A calm, kind doggy buddy? Perfect. A dog who greets her like a linebacker? Hard pass.However once she gets to know the pup there is no holding out for Lily! She is a very physical and vocal player. We can’t say we are surprised by her flair for dramatics..When she’s outside, you’ll often find her gleefully tossing her stuffies around like she’s hosting her own talent show. Yes, she occasionally un-stuffs them. No, we do not believe she is sorry.Why We’re All Obsessed With Her:Lilly is pure love on four legs — sweet, silly, affectionate, and eager to please. With proper guidance, consistency, and patience, she’s going to absolutely blossom in her future home.She has stolen our hearts… and also the treats in our pockets. We’re not mad about it.If you’re ready for a loyal companion who brings the sunshine with her wherever she goes, consider adopting Lilly — the sweetest flower in our shelter garden.
