Please contact Desiree (lostangelsanimalrescue04@yahoo.com) for more information about this pet.Helloooooo nice person!  I’m Mila, who are you? You say you’re looking for a dog???  That’s amazing!  Because I am a dog just trying to make fetch happen! I consider myself a treat connoisseur and can spot one (or a squirrel) a hundred yards out all the while saving the world, one bark at a time. I’m a 2 year old gal, formerly down on my luck, currently hanging with Lost Angels Animal Rescue in Tampa, Florida, just waiting for my soul mate to realize I’m here.  Everyone says I have an enormous heart and my potential for loyalty and devotion is practically bottomless. I hope you reach out because I think we’re going to be best friends FOREVER!   ADOPTION FEE: $300.00August 6, 2025, 3:53 pm

Story
Please contact Desiree (lostangelsanimalrescue04@yahoo.com) for more information about this pet.This is Cocoa a stunning 2 - 3 year old liver colored female GSD that is seeking her new person.  She found herself in a shelter and was extremely thin when she came in to rescue. She spend 10 days boarding at a veterinary hospital due to us not having an available foster.  She also completed a board and train program.  Once she was placed with her foster it was very apparent that there was an underlying health issue that had caused her extreme weight loss and was soon diagnosed as an EPI dog. Good news is it's easily managed with an enzyme powder sprinkled on each meal.  She has already gone from 50.8 lbs to 80 lbs in just 5 weeks. Cocoa is very intelligent and eager to please. She would do best with an experienced handler, no kids and an only pet.  She can be selective of people and seems to do best with females. Her training with Kyser K9 is life long and a new owner will be able to work with them and have access to training sessions. For more information, please email lostangelsanimalrescue04@yahoo.com or submit an online application at www.lostangelsanimalrescue.org to pursue an adoption.  Adoption Donation: $300.00 October 2, 2025, 9:13 pm

Story
ddison is a 1.5–2 year old gentle, resilient dog with a very soft, sweet nature. She had double FHO surgery and has healed well; she now enjoys running, playing, and especially spending time in the water. She can be a bit shy at first, but once she feels safe, she relaxes and her affectionate, trusting side really comes through. She would do best in a calm home with a fully fenced yard where she can safely play and explore. Addison really enjoys the company of other dogs and blossoms with a friendly canine companion in the home. She is good with kids and cats, and her easygoing, loving temperament makes her a nice fit for many different types of families. Addison is still working on her confidence on leash, so right now she feels most comfortable in a secure yard. She does wonderfully with the other dogs in her foster home and especially loves the 13-year-old daughter, who she trusts for things like baths and nail trims. With time, patience, and consistency, she becomes a loyal, cuddly, very affectionate companion. She is fully vetted, healthy, and ready for her forever family. For someone looking for a kind, playful dog with a gentle spirit, Addison has a lot of love to give. ##1993669##

**available in the Los Angeles area only Arlo is an 8-week-old shepherd mix puppy currently looking for his forever home in Los Angeles. This sweet little guy is at the very beginning of his journey and can’t wait to find a family who will grow up alongside him.   Like most shepherd mixes, Arlo is curious, playful, and incredibly smart. He loves exploring the world around him, playing with toys, and soaking up every bit of attention he can get. He’s the kind of puppy who will happily bounce around during playtime and then curl up for a cozy nap once he’s all tuckered out.   At just eight weeks old, Arlo is in that perfect stage where he is ready to learn, bond, and build a lifelong connection with his people. With love, guidance, and positive training, he will grow into a loyal, wonderful companion.
