Story

Meet Dexter, a 10 year old Jack Russell mix. Dexter has lived in his current home for 10 years and has seen many changes. Early in his little life a more aggressive dog joined their family who bullied him. This taught him to become possessive of his food and his toys to the point where he also became aggressive in how he deals with people or dogs who get too near. He has also gone from a home with a yard to a small apartment so he doesn't have much room to stretch his legs. Dexter enjoys being active with walks, runs and dog parks. He is cuddly and will curl up for a nap with you wherever you are. He doesn't mind baths and isn’t afraid of thunderstorms. The ideal family for Dexter is one that is active but that doesn’t have other dogs or small children. Does Dexter sound like the dog for you?

ALICE-Special Needs/Sponsors IMPORTANT: The Nature Network Inc. is a small 501c3 non-profit no-kill organization. Most animals we rescue are abandoned at the pound, who no one wants--seniors and special-needs. 100% of all funds are used for them—extensive veterinary and medical costs, prescription meds, rehab, special foods, supplements, and more. We are deeply grateful for help. To meet us, help us, or if you know people or businesses who would like to, please contact us at: theanimalsleftbehind@socal.rr.com (Also our PayPal Giving email address for donation and sponsorship). Mailing: The Nature Network Inc., 3826 Grand View Blvd., #66790, Los Angeles, CA 90066. All donations are used for our rescued animals. No funds are used for salaries, advertising, social media, or human expenses. All of us, including board members, are volunteers. Our veterinary references are available upon request. ALICE is a Jack Russell/Bull Terrier unusual mix. Alice is sponsorship only at this point, as she has damaged ankles and toes and her right eye needed to be removed. She was rescued from one of the Los Angeles City Animal Shelters just in time. She was slated for death because they claimed she was still on medication, which in fact she no longer was! Alice now receives cold laser treatment to her various joints every week which has enabled her to move about well and be able to walk more smoothly without the pain that she had before. Her treatment has also shrunk the swelling on her ankle joints. Her right eye was beginning to cause pain and no longer responding to 5 different glaucoma medications for over a year and had to be removed. Her remaining left eye is now healthier, and she can see out of it much better. Since Alice has damaged/deformed toes and feet, and missing her right eye, gets ongoing cold laser treatment, and various eye medications to keep her left eye healthy, we need sponsors who would like to help her.. To sponsor and know more about Alice and her issues, please contact: theanimalsleftbehind@socal.rr.com (also our PayPal donation/sponsorship email address)

Needs special attention, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

DARWIN is currently special-needs as he recovers from an abusive home, and so far he is doing well with rehab, but we still have a way to go. Darwin is a wonderful, affectionate, and loving boy. Although he likes playing fetch and chasing his ball, he equally enjoys being a couch potato and cuddling and sleeping. He is often quiet, and unlike many of the higher-energy Jack Russells. He is friendly and sweet but terribly fearful, and is an indoor dog since he has white, very fine hair, can sunburn easily, and also freeze in the winter. Darwin is housetrained, walks well on his leash, obeys simple commands, and is friendly with other friendly dogs, both female and male, and smaller dogs. Darwin is about 8 years old and is neutered. Darwin’s parents split up and neither one of them was able to keep Darwin. Darwin is a smooth-coat Jack Russell with perhaps a tiny touch of Corgi. For more information about DARWIN, please contact us at: theanimalsleftbehind@socal.rr.com (also our PayPal Giving donation and sponsorship email address)

Story

Hi! My name is Judge, and I am IN SOUTH KOREA waiting to be matched to a home in Southern California! I am an outgoing, friendly, and affectionate boy. I love being around people, other dogs and exploring the world around me. I love going on walks. I may be a little shy at first but I am quick to adapt and learn. I often stand quietly infront of people, waiting to be petted, and I really love physical affection. I can be very playful and energetic. I am ready to call you my best friend. Will you give me a chance? I was rescued duringa large wildfire in northern Gyeongsang province in S. Korea this year. I had burn injuries which I recovered from. I still have three visible burn scars... but I wear them as my own badge of honor ('survival"). LA AUTO SHOW 2025 (November, 2025) I plan to be at LA Auto Show this year at DoVE Project's booth. If you want to meet me in person, please email info@dove-project for more details regarding the days and hours of DoVE Project's booth. See you then!!! FOR LIMITED TIME ONLY FROM NOW THROUGH NOVEMBER 30TH, JUDGE'S ADOPTION FEE IS REDUCED TO $600. ********************************* This dog was rescued in S. Korea from an abusive situation. Although S. Korea's new law banning the dog meat consumption is set to go into effect February 2027, and the consumption is all time low, the practice is still in common existence amongst elderly population especially in the rural countryside. No one could tell where this dog would have ended up. Thanks to the rescuers in S. Korea, this pup is longer in danger of getting trapped in dog meat trade! DoVE Project has rescue partners in S. Korea who have their own private shelter and/or foster network. Our dogs stay with either a foster family or a private shelter until they are matched with an adopter in the US. Upon arrival in the US, our dogs stay in foster homes or in boarding, as we do not have a physical facility. These dogs are identified with "in LA" in their names. Please note that we only adopt our pups in the Southern California area. Please check our website for more information regarding our adoption process, our mission, and our adoption application: https://www.dove-project.org/adoption-process If you are interested in adopting, please complete an online application at: https://www.dove-project.org/adoption-application-form ABOUT JINDOS Jindos are known for their fierce loyalty, high intelligence, rarely barking, and playful nature. They make great indoor family dogs, as Jindos are clean and easily housetrained, and are faithful to family members. They are also mid-level active and love being socialized at dog parks, going on hikes, and joining the family on trips.

KATTY: Jack Russell Mix • Spayed Female • 1 Year Old • 18 lbs KATTY,. is a loving, gentle, and easygoing young girl. She sleeps comfortably in a crate, gets along well with other dogs, and is quiet in the home—she rarely barks and isn’t destructive. Most of her day is spent lovingly doting on her puppy, whom she protects and plays with nonstop. Katty and her puppy were abandoned in an empty house. A neighbor heard a puppy crying for days and followed the sound, finding them alone, hungry, and thirsty. They were safely rescued and given the care they desperately needed. Now Katty is ready for a safe, loving home where she can continue to be the sweet, devoted little dog she is. It would be great if both could get adopted together because Ivan his sibling is very attached to Katty, or maybe if you can adopt both you could foster Ivan until he gets adopted. Every dog deserves a safe and loving home — adopt a rescue dog today. We are their voice! If you think you can offer KATTY, the loving home she deserves, please contact Reyna: Email: miracledogrescue@gmail.com Phone: 323-383-8883

Story

MILLIE is a lovely adult/senior, 8 pounds, girl Rat Terrier whose senior human dad passed away, leaving Millie and her four little companions, Cookie, Shorty, Poopsy, and Missy, without their dad. They all get along really well, are house trained, and also know to use pads to do their business indoors, and at night, and when it's raining or very cold out. They are not barkers, only barking to warn that someone is at or near the front door, and then they settle down again. They are great with cats because their housemates have been six (6) cats! If shown a lot of affection and understanding when welcomed into their new homes, we are sure these lovely kiddos will do well in a loving new home even if they don’t stay together. IMPORTANT NOTE: Recently the number of deaths from hungry coyote attacks has greatly increased. Coyotes can climb 10 foot fences with a small to medium sized dog in their jaws. This happens in broad daylight in the middle of the day, and on trails while hiking with your dog on a leash, it is truly unbelievable, and we have frightening first-hand accounts. We are listing these lovely pups to help their current foster/rescue in finding them wonderful new homes. All four girl pups are spayed, Shorty is neutered, and all of them current on vaccines. To learn more about Millie (Cookie, Shorty, Poopsy, and Missy), please contact us at: theanimalsleftbehind@socal.rr.com (also our PayPal email for donations and sponsorships).

Meet Nala! If you’re looking for a goofy, cuddly companion, Nala is your girl.

Her favorite things include cuddling on the couch, leisurely walks around the neighborhood, and—most importantly—eating ice cubes, her ultimate treat!

Nala is house trained and easy to handle on leash, though she may get excited when she sees other dogs. She’s smart, observant, and ready to learn with her new family! If you’re searching for a sweet, loyal snuggle buddy who will brighten your days with her gentle, goofy charm, Nala is ready to settle into your home and heart.
