CHARACTERISTICS Friendly, Affectionate, Loyal, Gentle, Smart Paloma is a great girl! She is three years old and over 60 pounds, lives with other dogs, cuddles with and loves the grandkids when they visit, walks pretty well on a leash, and she lives both inside and outside. She has free roam of her yard area and the house. Paloma has been well loved by an elderly couple who must move and cannot keep Paloma. Our group met with the family and reviewed Paloma who is an absolute doll and good family dog so we offered to help find the perfect home. Her energy level is moderate and a truly lovely nature.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.I can't say enough about Nova. Just look at this precious girl, she's not only beautiful and sweet she's smart and oh so loving&#226&#157&#164 Her foster mama says "when she loves you she loves you hard" Nova, is professionally trained so she needs an experienced owner that is willing to keep up her skills. She's a wonderful playmate with the puppies that come into our rescue, but as all dogs she must be introduced properly. Nova, thrives on love and attention so we would prefer her to be an only dog. She wants to be your cuddle bug and protector, she loves her people immensely. She's a big strong dog who doesn't realize her size. She would do best in a home with no young children. She loves hiking and playing fetch so she needs a large yard. Are you a pack leader, who can provide Nova with love and structure? Because this is what Nova needs to thrive! If you live in San Diego or surrounding areas, have a home with a yard and a minimum of a 6ft fence and would love to meet this awesome girl then please complete our adoption application at www.tlck9rescue.org Thank you TLC K9 RescueVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.May 3, 2024, 5:02 pm

How this pet arrived:Rona was brought in by her previous owner. At SDHS:Rona is vaccinated, microchipped and spayed. She is now ready for her new home! Why this pet is the one for you:Meet Rona, a lovely lady with a gentle spirit. She loves her leash walks! She was slightly fearful when she first came into our care, but now she is forming close relationships with her caregivers. In her prior home, she lived with cats. She may do best as the only dog in the home. Because of her initial shyness, we are recommending she go into a home with no young kids (under 8).

How this pet arrived:Cornelia was brought in by our Humane Law Enforcement Team on 2/13/2024. At SDHS:Cornelia is vaccinated, microchipped and spayed. She is now ready for her new home! Why this pet is the one for you:Meet Cornelia! She was initially a little shy in our care, but she's been a good girl with us and she's shown an eagerness to trust and learn. She spent some time in a foster home, and she did great there, getting along well (chasing and playing) with the foster's resident dog. Foster reports also that after about 3 days, she became very cuddly. Cornelia knows 'sit', hinting at her potential for further training. Because of her initial shyness, we are recommending she go to a home with no young kids (under 10). In a patient understanding home, she is sure to become a loyal and loving companion. If you would like to meet Cornelia, grab a leash and collar and head to our Escondido Campus.https://resources.sdhumane.org/Resource_Center/Behavior_and_Training/Behavior_Tips_for_Your_New_Pet Primary Color: Red Secondary Color: Black Weight: 33 Age: 3yrs 2mths 2wks

Gorgeous 16 week old male puppy Dillon is ready for his loving forever family. Dillon is an amazingly behaved puppy that is sweet with everyone he meets and is super sweet with children. He was rescued from a hoarding situation and arrived super thin and only weighed 13 1:2 pounds. He’s eating well, sleeps in his crate the whole night through and is potty trained when he has access to the yard. He’s incredibly smart, intuitive, alert and wants to please you and love you unconditionally. Dillon will be an amazing addition to any loving family looking for a handsome shepherd mix puppy. Dillon is neutered, microchipped, received his comprehensive fecal test, wellness exam and rabies vaccination. He’s also had two rounds of puppy boosters and only needs one more in 3 weeks. He is an absolute gem of a puppy that deserves his happily ever after.
