IF YOU WANT TO SAVE A LIFE TODAY, HOW ABOUT ADOPTING A SENIOR PUP?! Meet Miss Polly Polly is a gentle and sweet-hearted girl that shares her love with everyone. This girl is full of beauty and grace. She may have lived a sad life, but her beautiful spirit doesn't show it. Polly is a gorgeous, elegant, and lovely lady. The power of her presence should not be undervalued; she touches hearts instantly. Polly may be considered a senior by number, but that just means she has years of experience in the fine art of friendship. Please don't be fooled by her age, Polly loves to play with her toys and soak up the fun times she has with the volunteers. Polly is not a fan of kennel life. She deserves to be sleeping on a couch, or on her big warm cushy dog bed right next to her person, daydreaming of what you and her have planned for the next day. Polly deserves to be spoiled and pampered. This beauty is 10 years young. Remember, " Love doesn't keep track of the years; it keeps track of the memories!" SENIORS ARE THE BEST! Please email Adoptions@LaManchaAnimalRescue.org to meet Miss Polly. ************** 10 years old. Spayed/neutered, UTD vaccinations, chipped, wormed. Housetrained.

Story
HATTIE. I am as beautiful as a rose. I radiate beauty with elegance and grace, as beautiful on the inside as I am on the outside. I am 7 years young and looking for love. Trying to make up for what I missed the last 7 years. My friends say loving me is effortless. I didn't have an easy life prior to LaMancha, so it's a blessing I was rescued. I was a breeding machine, making tons of money for my so-called family. After my services weren't needed anymore, I was left to fend for myself. Luck was on my side when I was found and rescued. I love my friends here at LaMancha so much. They have been so loving and caring, but they know that my end goal is to finally live in a home where my family really cares for me. I dream for a loving family who really adores and cares for me this time, and of course a comfy bed and some good food too. I am a delightful, pleasant, fun, and sweet girl. I pinky promise you with my paw that we will have many years of endless love, laughter, and fun to be had. I have been around other dogs, but I really think my best home is where I can be your one and only best friend. My heart is exploding with love, and I need to share it with someone that needs to be loved too. I love to snuggle, give paw, play with my toys, run around, and explore all the smells outside, and just feel free, waiting for my new beginning. I am a fun all-around sweet girl, and I love to sit right by your side or on your lap! How about you come meet me?

Story
DREA doesn't care about money or material things; all she cares about is loving you! In typical American Bulldog fashion, DREA is a stunningly beautiful girl. Her eyes have their own vocabulary, and what a beautiful language to learn. Drea is always happy and upbeat. She spreads her cheerful, friendly, sweetness around in droves. Drea adores being doted on by the volunteers! She'll be your happy medicine. If dogs walked the red carpet, she wouldn't need any high dollar wardrobe. Her natural, captivating beauty would win the best-dressed awards on the E-Dog News channel. Drea is finally done being a breeding momma, and she is very thankful for that. She LOVES her human friends! Every night when she lays her head down on her kennel bed, she dreams about how wonderful it would be to have her very own best friend/companion/family . . . A family who cares about her this time. A family that thinks her life isn't disposable. A family that is committed to her. Drea hasn't met you yet, but she already promises to love you, as she wouldn't have it any other way. Drea is 3 years old. One request from Drea," I sometimes forget I'm a dog and not a person, so I would prefer to be your one and only dog, but I will give you ten dogs' worth of love, just please believe in me."

Story
“The world would be a much nicer place if everyone had the ability to love as unconditionally as a dog.” “Dogs are the only thing on earth that LOVES YOU more than you love yourself!” Brody agrees! BRODY is a handsome boy who LOVES his friends more than cheeseburgers, his favorite treats, and Starbucks Puppuccinos too. He also loves belly rubs! One because he loves the attention, and two because he enjoys every second you spend with him. He’s a huge lover! Brody is a sweet, friendly boy who just wants a family and home so badly. He is affectionate, and his smile is so big, his eyes turn into hearts. This boy is such a lover! Sadly, Brody lost him home over housing arrangements. This really hurt his heart, but he has lots of friends here at LaMancha, so hopefully his heart is healing. He is more than ready to join his new family and make lots of great memories. Mr. Handsome prefers to be the only light of your life. He loves big and will paw promise you that he’s all you’ll ever need in unconditional love and companionship. Brody wants you to know that if you open your heart and home to him, he will be the bestest friend you ever had! Brody is a 5-year-young Black Lab mix of love.

SPIKE is a petite-sized precious black beauty. He's so adorable and friendly. His sweetness is surreal. He is a positive boy that loves life and makes the best of each day, and it shows with the sparkle in his eyes that echoes his sweet and fun personality. Spike craves love and attention. His smile from ear to ear reflects his happiness, as he soaks up all your loving. Little Spike (he is smaller in person that he looks in his photos) is a spunky and jolly fellow. His spunkiness and fun energy make it hard to believe he is 9 years young. We all thought he was 1 year old, so he was blessed with good genes. Don't let that number deter you. Spike is ready to go on many fun adventures with you. Spike has mastered perfecting how to be the bestest friend you'll ever have in life. He's heartsore for love. The family that adopts him will be so lucky. Spike will be an amazing family member. Awesome Spike is dog friendly too.
