Story
Meet Rupert 🐾 Rupert is a resilient, loving little guy who has come a long way and is ready to find his forever home! At around 2–3 years old, Rupert is a playful, affectionate pup who loves being with his person. He enjoys attention, playtime, and pretty much any opportunity to have fun. One of his favorite things? The pool! 💦 Rupert had a scary start when he suddenly woke up one day unable to walk on his back legs. He underwent spinal surgery and, thanks to his incredible resilience, he is walking again! His journey is a testament to just how strong this sweet boy is. According to his DNA results, Rupert is approximately 50% French Bulldog and 50% Pocket Bully. He has basic obedience skills including sit, stay, come, and calm leash walking, and he is a very fun, playful companion. Rupert gets along well with other dogs, but because of his spinal surgery, he needs a home with dogs who are 50 pounds or smaller. He should no longer be around large or rough dogs to help protect his back and keep him safe. Most of all, Rupert loves affection and wants to be close to his person. He would love a family who will give him plenty of love, playtime, and the chance to enjoy life. Rupert is ready for his next chapter and a loving forever home. Could you be the family he’s been waiting for? ❤️

Story
Meet your future best friend! I’m a resilient Frenchie who is full of love. My journey started in a tough place — I was found on the streets covered in fleas and ticks, with damaged skin and bald spots. With patience, care, and time, I healed beautifully. Today, I’m a healthy, playful adult dog who enjoys going on walks but is just as happy indulging in my absolute favorite hobby: sleeping and lounging around. I thrive on human attention and companionship, and because I love being the center of your world, I can sometimes get a little jealous when other dogs get the spotlight instead of me — but I’m working on it. I’m now ready for a dedicated new family who will continue giving me the endless affection and ongoing love I truly deserve. If you are interested in meeting Cookie, please download the Adoption Questionnaire, fill it out and email it back to us at info@farescue.org or fax (310) 362-0321. You can also meet this and/or other available dogs at our weekend adoptions. [Cookie is about 6 years old and weighs 25 lbs.] (2608)

Get ready to fall in love with the one and only Alvi! This remarkable boy will steal your heart with his captivating charm and playful spirit. Alvi is an adult male dog who embodies the perfect blend of friendliness, affection, and wit. His cleverness shines through in his playful antics, and you'll often find yourself both smiling and impressed by his clever tricks. Not only is Alvi a fun-loving companion, but he's also an athlete at heart. He exudes energy and enthusiasm in everything he does, from chasing a ball to exploring new trails. We actually think he is part rabbit because he will run and bounce and then run some more! Alvi is always eager to learn and embraces new challenges with excitement. With his affectionate nature, Alvi loves nothing more than snuggling up close and showering his loved ones with kisses. He forms strong bonds with those who earn his trust and is sure to be a loyal friend for life. Embrace the opportunity to welcome Alvi into your heart and home.

Story
Sweetie is just as sweet as her name says she is. Sweetie is a 3 year old, 26 lb French Bulldog who was rescued from a backyard breeding operation. Despite her terrible past, she is a sweet, affectionate, friendly, gentle girl. Sweetie loves people, likes to follow you around and cuddle. She is great with other dogs, too! Sweetie is very mellow and gentle. She loves to lay outside in the sun and on the couch with you. She is almost fully house trained now and crate trained. She is also leaning how to walk on a leash. Unfortunately, her medical needs were neglected while she was being used for breeding, so she has very thick ears from untreated hematomas (now healed) and masses in her ears from untreated ear infections. The vet says she does not need these masses removed (they do not affect her hearing), unless she gets chronic ear infections in the future, then it may need to be considered.

Story
Sampson is the definition of a sweet, mellow Frenchie with a big smile and a gentle heart! This handsome 5-year-old Blue Merle French Bulldog weighs 30 pounds and is one of those dogs who makes himself right at home wherever he goes. Sampson is friendly, trusting, and affectionate. He’s wonderfully chill for a Frenchie, sticks close to his humans, and loves his cuddles. He’s also great on leash and non-reactive when passing other dogs. Big dogs, little dogs- Sampson is happy to meet them all. When he’s not following his people around, you’ll probably find him doing his signature froggy sploot on a cool patch of grass or tile. He’s house-trained and does great in his crate overnight and in the mornings. He’s still working on feeling comfortable being crated when his foster family leaves, but he’s making progress. Sampson is smart, very food-motivated, and doing beautifully with positive-reinforcement training. He has a little playful nibble we’re working on, and he’s learning to channel his enthusiasm in appropriate ways. He’s also surprisingly athletic—this boy can jump high, and we’re talking serious Frenchie hops! Sampson would thrive with a family who will continue his training, give him plenty of love, and appreciate his confident personality. Neutered, house-trained, dog-friendly, kid-friendly, and endlessly handsome, Sampson is ready to find his forever people!

Story
Sometimes the most precious ones come in a special package. Munchkin arrived at East Valley Shelter as a stray, and the staff fell for his goofy, loving personality almost immediately. He was transferred to West LA Shelter in hopes of a better chance at finding a home. There, volunteers shared videos of him playing with other dogs and making everyone laugh, loving life despite his funny gait. But Munchkin tired easily, and as the days went by, we watched some of that joy fade. It was almost as if he sensed that no one was coming for him. We couldn't leave this amazing boy behind simply because he was born a little different. Take Me Home rescued Munchkin, and having him in our rescue family has been an honor. In his foster home, he is thriving. He is grateful, affectionate, and hilarious, and he has us smiling nonstop. He is housebroken, polite, and gets along wonderfully with his foster Boxer sister and Bulldog sister. He truly reminds us every day that being a little different can be pretty wonderful! Now we're looking for Munchkin's special family. He is just one year old, and about 52 pounds, with a lifetime of love ahead of him. And how often in rescue do we get to say, “we have a young dog who would much rather sit in your lap than go on a long hike?” Munchkin may not be your marathon running partner, but he will absolutely be your marathon cuddler and best friend. We told him they're out there: the family who will fall head over heels for this goofy little guy and share smiles, cuddles, and adventures with him forever. Could that be you? Please ask us about Munchkin. We would love to tell you more…...

Story
Hi there, I’m Cowboy 🤠 I’m a 10-year-old, 60-pound neutered bulldog/pitbull mix with a big heart and an easygoing soul. Even though I spent most of my life as an outdoor dog, I’ve discovered that I really love the good life indoors—and I’ve taken to it like a pro. I landed at the South LA Animal Shelter on Valentine’s Day (yep, a lover boy through and through ), was later transferred to West LA, and then headed to my foster home on 12/23. Since then, I’ve been showing everyone just how sweet and wonderful I am. In fact, I’m such a pleasant, easy foster that even my foster dad—who is very picky about foster dogs—is totally happy having me stay! I’m completely house-trained and very polite in the home. I walk right into my open crate to snooze, sleep through the night without a single peep, and I rarely bark—only if something really unexpected startles me. I love to play fetch, chew on (and sometimes enthusiastically destroy) toys, and I can happily entertain myself when needed. I adore my female foster fur-sister and cover her in smooches all day long. I’m playful, affectionate, and full of love. I’m also great with teenagers and their friends, friendly with strangers, and just an all-around good guy. I even love water play—splashing is a blast! I know a few commands already and I’m eager to keep learning. I do pull on leash right now, but I wear a good harness and will be working with a trainer to polish my walking skills. I haven’t met any cats yet, so that’s still to be determined. If you’re looking for a loving, playful, well-mannered companion with a heart of gold and a face you can’t help but smile at, I might just be your guy. I’m ready to be someone’s forever Cowboy. Much Love, Cowboy

Meet Terra! Here is what her foster has to say about her: Terra has a signature underbite, it is the cutest thing! Her nickname is TiTi! STORY TIME! When we first started fostering her, we bought her a stuffy, it was a little white dog just like her. She loved it and would carry it with her on our walks, constantly dropping it to smell and then forgetting all about it until I picked it up. Then she'd carry it again, drop it, and we do that bit over and over again. One day I just happened to say "where's your baby?" and she ran and got her stuffy. So every day now, when someone comes home, she runs, grabs a stuffy and proudly brings us her "baby", but we aren't allowed to hold it. She just wants us to acknowledge her baby! How precious is she?! Terra makes herself comfy by sitting on your feet, which is not bad on cold days...instant foot warmer! She's a big love bug and likes just about every human she meets! She loves catching balls or really any toy you can toss to her, only downfall is she doesn't want to give it back so you have to wait for her to drop it so you can throw it again. She can even catch those tiny training treats from far away! On walks, if you accidentally drop the leash, she stops and waits for you to pick it up before we proceed. She is very tolerant of other dogs on our walks, does not seem to care. She does live with two little 20 pound dogs, and does great. She has no resource guarding and doesn't care if the littles try to take her food, treats, or toys. She patiently waits for them to be done. She is great in the car, and housebroken. She was crate trained but we have not needed to crate her since our other foster was adopted. If you have read this far... What are you waiting for?
