Story
Chopper is fully on and off leash trained. This sweet Corgi/Golden Retriever mix knows what it’s like to love deeply. Through no fault of his own, he found himself needing a new start after struggling with a few behavioral quirks that his previous family wasn’t prepared to work through. What is impossible to miss about him is his heart. He’s affectionate, loyal, and eager to connect with his people. He thrives on structure, clear communication, and a patient home that understands that dogs, like humans, sometimes need guidance to feel safe and confident. With consistency and support, he blossoms—showing just how smart, devoted, and loving he truly is. He’s looking for a family willing to see him for who he is, not just what he’s been through. In return, he promises unwavering loyalty, endless tail wags, and plenty of tippy taps in the forever home he deserves. Chopper will do well in homes with children. He will do fine in homes with one other dog and continued structure.

Story
Meet Jimmy! This sweet boy was found running the streets of TJ with his mom looking for food and shelter. Jimmy is very sweet but shy. Jimmy is around 10 months old and weighs around 45 lbs. He is still learning his new environment and sounds. He is leash, crate, and house trained. He loves romping around in a yard and going on new adventures such as to the dog beach! He easily makes friends with new canine companions. He’ll sleep in his crate at night after he gets all his playful energy out! He is still a bit skeptical of the outside world, while treats are a great motivator. Jimmy is looking for a calm and patient family that will allow him to continue to gain confidence. Jimmy is friendly with kids, dogs, and even coexists with cats. Could Jimmy be the pup for you?
