Story
Dewy, Beans, Peanut and Scrappy are special New Year babies, born 1/7/26. Their mom is Snow, a stray found at a gas station back in Winter 2025. Snow is a pure white husky with the most piercing icy eyes. She was unknowingly pregnant, and soon birthed 5 little pups. We think the puppies have half of a bully breed or pit bull in them.The puppies came in all colors - brindles, tan/white and black/white. The only boy puppy, Squash, has since been adopted by a couple in Costa Mesa, CA. Fast forward to today, the girls are thriving in Perris, CA. They are well-socialized with one another, three other adult dogs, people, and both men and women.Dewy is the most rambunctious of the litter, extremely curious and athletic. She is called her name because she's the only one with dewclaws on her rear paws! Dewy's coat is brindle with white. She has heterochromia in both her eyes (each eye is both brown and blue).

Story
“ Harry” was abandoned in a field near us with his brother who was hit by a car and killed. We took him in after that happened. It has been over a year and have made many attempts to find him a new home. He’s 2-3 years old, he’s been vaccinated, groomed and chipped, been to doggie boot camp and he’ll be neutered soon. He’s shy and sweet and loves gentle attention, petting and brushing. Why Harry needs a new home? We only have a 5 ft fence and he can jump over it. So his new home must have a higher fence. But the biggest problem is we also have a grumpy older dog that gets jealous of him. Or if Harry gets admonished for anything then grumpy wants to be the enforcer and there have been fights. Grumpy is much smaller and gets hurt. Harry is NOT aggressive he only defends himself. Grumpy won’t let him play with toys either. Sad! They sleep together and clean each other but also fight. It’s a love hate relationship I can’t explain. Harry deserves better. We do love him, you will too.

Story
Copper is about 3 years old. He was a stray we found outside of our house. We kept him because we couldn't find his owner. He has been with us almost a year. He gets along with our other dog & our kids. He is a playful dog, but definitely needs to earn your trust before feeling completely comfortable. He is an outside dog, but has the potential to be an inside dog with the proper training. He would be a great addition to anyone's family.
