Story
Hi, we are Denali's pups! We were born on August 18 and will be ready to go home on October 14th. HIT Living is now accepting applications to be pre-approved to adopt us. Our mom, Denali, was rescued along with her 'sister' Clover who was also pregnant from SEACCA shelter just an hour before they were set to be euthanized. Thanks to HIT Living and foster home offers, our moms were saved and gave birth to us safely in a loving home. We will all be together with our siblings and our mom until the 8-week mark to be sure we are properly socialized with our siblings and can soak in love from our mom as long as possible. Our mom is a 100% purebred German ShortHaired Pointer (see DNA results on last slide), but we do not know exactly what dad is. We are all looking for committed and dedicated homes, looking to add a wonderful puppy to their lives that will commit to training them properly and a life full of love and happiness! Our adoption fee includes: DHPP boosters, bordetella vaccine, rabies vaccine, fecal exam, and spay/neuter. If you see me online I am still available for adoption! If you are interested in adopting me, please fill out an application here: www.hitlivingfoundation.org/adoption-application, and email a video walkthrough of your home and yard to adoptions@hitlivingfoundation.org. Your application will not be counted as valid without your video. You will hear back from us within a few days.

Story
We are the 5 Week Duo. We are 3 month old German Short Haired Pointer Mixes. We are super sweet and learning how to go about this thing called life. I would love it if my forever family would show me all the wonders in the world. Some of my friends talk about going to the dog beach, which I think would be really fun. I look forward to meeting you and brightening your day! 5 Week Duo came to us from a fellow rescuer. We hold an event every weekend at our facility on SATURDAY and SUNDAY 11-5pm and open to the public. It is first come first serve we do not evaluate applications prior to an event. If there are multiple interested parties in the same dog or puppy at the same time we would pick the best out of the 10 applications. Please visit our social media platforms for the specifics for each weekend as it changes from week to week. Please find our application at lovejoyfoundation.org when you come to an event please bring that filled out in hand with you. You can find our application at Lovejoyfoundation.org. The Lovejoy Foundation, Inc. does not adopt beyond a 30 mile radius from our headquarters in Inglewood. Sometimes exceptions are made in a particular situation for an adopter further out than 30 miles which is at the discretion of the director.

Story
Chico is a sweet 4 year old GSP who absolutely loves tennis balls. He unfortunately was not socialized well with other animals so he would need to be in a single pet home. We are no longer able to care for him due to finances, and would love to give Chico a life and home that he deserves. He loves to cuddle and is somewhat energetic. He loves to follow people around everywhere and enjoys lick mats as well as bones and treats. I would really love for Chico to be in a home where people can give him time and proper care.
