Story
Juni will need to be picked up in Rancho Cucamonga, CA where she is currently in foster care. Hi, I'm Juni (short for Juniper)! I'm a young, 1-year-old Miniature Aussie with a heart full of love. My world is full of wonder and curiosity. I love exploring new things and I'm a playful pup always ready for a game of fetch or a fun romp in the yard. I'm very affectionate and love to cuddle and snuggle up for a good nap or for a pet on my soft fur. My gentle nature and friendly spirit make me a great companion and I am just the right size to care for (appox 30 lbs). I've got energy to spare and a tail that won't stop wagging. But what I want most is a family to share all my love and energy with. Adopting me means boundless love, and a faithful friend forever. My adoption fee is $400 and I have an appointment to be spayed in January. Email Alphadogpetrescue@yahoo.com for an application to adopt me at I am located near Rancho Cucamonga, CA.

Story
Max is a sweet and resilient 5-year old Chihuahua mix, full of affection and loyalty. He was originally adopted by a single man who became ill and brought him to us before he passed away. Max had been was attacked by a larger dog and needed surgery on his hind leg which we were able to provide. He is as good as new now, but does have a bit of a limp. Max is the definition of a best friend lap dog—he’s gentle, loving, and eager to be by your side. Max gets along wonderfully with other dogs and kids, making him a great addition to just about any home. He’s smart, well-mannered, and always ready to give kisses and cuddles. Whether he’s snuggling on the couch or following you around with those adoring eyes, Max is happiest just being near his people. This affectionate boy wants nothing more than a forever family to call his own. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will love you endlessly, Max is waiting to meet you! He's neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, and house trained (but will need a little help in a new environment). Max is currently being fostered in San Bernadino County, CA and must be picked up from there. For adoption information, please contact AlphaDogPetRescue@yahoo.com

Happy Feet is such a beautiful 1 yr old boy who is on the smaller mid size at appx 40 pounds. His sweet face, those beautiful ears, and his adorable curly coat deserve to be seen! He is very shy when he first meets you because he has not been around very many people. We are looking for a forever family thats sees his pictures, falls in love, and gives him the safe, happy life he deserves.

He goes outside in the backyard to potty and runs around doing zoomies...but he would love to have a more active life with his new owner, hiking, riding in the car and someone who can help him build up his confidence and show him there is a whole world waiting for him. His coat is super curly and he is a stunning boy. Fully vetted, shots, chips and neutered. Here's hoping his next adventure is a walk into his forever home! Our adoption donation is $325.

Meet FLORA a young, vivacious canine we rescued after her puppies were adopted. She is a petite little girl about 40 pounds and just the right size to handle on leash. She has one sky blue eye and one light brown eye. Her personality is a delightful mix of sweetness and energy, and she's as friendly as they come. Independent yet loyal, FLORA enjoys a good play session but also loves to snuggle up and be petted and praised. She's smart and curious, always ready to explore new things. Also very gentle with her fellow dogs and enjoys their company. A true water lover, Flora would make a perfect beach companion, zooming thru the sand and fetching a ball or toy. She adores the companionship of her human and always tries to please. FLORA has a special loving personality and will be your loyal friend, a playful companion, and a source of unconditional love and joy. This girl deserves a forever home and someone to give her heart to. She is fully vetted, spayed and microchipped.
