Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Friends, TLC K9 Rescue needs a foster family for Chipper. Or if you're already in love with this absolutely precious 2yr old boy you can complete an adoption application at tlck9rescue.org. Chipper's story; Chipper's owner a senior citizen just couldn't handle Chipper's energy anymore so she reached out to a mutual friend. When my friend Bobbie, reached out to me for help and explained that Chipper is very active and that she's worried he might trip his owner or even cause her to break a hip i just couldn't say no. So I took Chipper under TLC K9 Rescue's wings immediately. Oh my goodness we all fell in love with Chipper right away!!! He is super sweet, potty trained, knows some basic commands, but does needs to walk and greet people and other dogs on leash properly, so we have already started training him. Other than leash and some obedience training this boy is amazing. He's great with people, older considerate children, dogs of all sizes, but we would like for him to be with another dog his size. We are not sure about cat's, but we will be testing him soon. Chipper, loves to play fetch and run so he would make a great jogging partner. He likes water, but has never had an opportunity to splish and splash. Lol. I know that if you are beach growers or campers Chipper would love the adventure. He highly intelligent and treat motivated so continuous training would be ideal for him. If you live in San Diego County have a home with a yard and a secured 6 foot fence and would love to make Chipper a family member then please complete our foster or adoption application at tlck9rescue.orgVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 30, 2023, 10:33 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi everyone I'm Buster. Look how big and strong I've become. My sister and I were unwanted puppies being given away to anyone that wanted us. When our rescue found out about us, saw how small we were and only 5 weeks old she had us picked up right away and brought to safety. My sister has since been adopted by her foster family because they just fell in love with her sweet personality. But, I'm still waiting for my forever home. I LOVE people, kids and dogs no matter their size. I'm very playful with other gentle doggies and share my toys well. I'm completely kennel trained and sleep through the night without a peep. I'm just a baby still, but I've been well trained. I love going to the park with my trainer for group classes because each week we all learn something new. I love my walks. I'm smart, know how to sit and wait for my treats and food and I'm oh so eager to learn. I honestly can't tell you enough about Buster!! There isn't a person, kid dog or cat he doesn't love!!! he's respectful with farm animals (horses, cows etc.) He even loves to swim. His trainer says he would be a wonderful service dog and great companion. His best friend is one of our other rescue dogs. Leona, adores Buster!! Oh if they could be adopted together that would make my dream come true for them. Leona, relies on Buster and he gives her so much confidence. That's how beautiful his sweet soul is. He is truly a great puppy!! I can't wait to see him explore the world with his new family. You will never regret adopting Buster. If you live in Escondido, San Diego County or surrounding areas have a home with a yard and a minimum of a 6-foot fence and would love to make Buster a family member then please complete our adoption application at tlck9rescue.orgVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 30, 2023, 10:33 pm

Story
Maddie was abandoned in a field and was humanly trapped, because she didnt trust humans. She had a collar and leash wrapped so tight around her neck, it had to be cut off at the shelter. She had clearly at some point been around people but lacked the confidence to trust again.  Maddie would hide in the back of the kennel, scared, and shut down.  Without an exit she would be euthanized. Her trapper and foster, Laura has been working hard to rehabilitate her to trust humans again. She was scared of just about everything. Cars, trash cans, people, loud noises. She is getting better every day. She now joins the rescue pack walks.  She goes on outings with other friends and dogs.  She is still a work in progress but ready for the next step in her journey if you want to help her bloom.  Nothing like the reward of watching a fearful dog let you in and learn to share your world with. you.  She will need someone with an open mind and no expectations other than eventual trust and unconditional love.  ##1793533##

Story
Trolley has undergone an amazing transformation over the last several months.  He came to us after spending several months living in a bush feet off an active trolley track.  He was likely struck at one point based on his face and head scars.  He would run from people, was often seen crossing the tracks from one bush to another and had grabbed the heart of the neighborhood where he roamed.  When we responded to the plea for help our first order of business was putting a halt to the leftover meals and home made dinners everyone would bring over to put in his bush for him when he was gone to find when he returned.  Once humanely trapped it was clear he bore not just physical scars but trauma emotionally.  He would stare at you wide eyed and tense at any attempt to interact.  He was guarded but never showed a sign of aggression.  After several weeks of very slow progress and concerns for his rehab we made a choice to flood him with activity by watching us with other dogs.  The change was almost instantaneous.  He watched the dogs and immediately his behavior changed.  He started to grab toys and in fact to this day has to grab his "baby" when he greets you.  He began to embrace and invite touch so his journey began.    His fear of the world, noise, stimulation and people was intense.  We were not sure he'd ever leave our care.  Regardless, we pushed and balanced his fear with building confidence.  He started to enjoy his walks on property rather than end them in panic.  He now requires careful handling because he's huge and thinks walks are all about zoomies so training has replaced rehab. (that is a good thing)  He would attend intial events quaking behind the table buried in the other dogs just wanting his favorite person to soothe him.  He now rushes forward to greet kids, takes treats and rolls over for belly rubs.  His pack walks used to consist of controlled panic and now start with a body shake off the van and tail wag when he gets back.  It's finally time for him to fly the coop.  His transition will be tough and require someone to be patient while he adjusts.  We are hear to help and visiits to start would be best until he feels safe.  He is great with dogs but underestimates his size and power in play so should not be left with other dogs unsupervised but would do best with another confident dog in the home.  He is big and strong, will always be prone to unexpected panic so requires a strong handler.  His heart is HUGE and when he lets you in you'll drown in it.   Because of my Flight Risk I cannot be left unattended in a yard, crate training is a must when you are gone, tight grip on the leash is a must on adventures and my new family must be aware of open doors and windows.  NO offleash activities in unfenced areas for life.

Story
You would never know Obie started his journey as an exremely scared street stray.  He took months to warm up and accept touch.  However, when he flipped he rolled.  He is a gregarious guy, never meeting a stranger.  He loves people and despite over a year at the facility could not be happier.  We were crushed when after only 24 hours his first forever home returned him because he would be alone during work hours.  Did they know he'd been alone most of his life and gets less than they can give as one of several with a rescue?  He is happy but we are devastated to see this incredibly sweet and special guy still living out his days in between a crate and yard time, not in his own home. Obie doesn’t ask for much at all, just a nice spot in the sun and his person to lean on. If you are lucky enough to be chosen by Obie, you will feel the love! This distinguished man is amazing with all people and great with kids. His favorite way to show affection is by getting as close as he can and leaning in! So, if you’re looking for a medium-size,  50 lb “thinks he’s a lap dog” type of snuggler, Obie’s your man! Obie’s only six years old, but don't let his frosty face fool you, he is SPRY and ready for ANY and all adventures you want to take him on. His calm demeanor and gentle spirit make him a fit for any home. He’s not fancy guy, but strikingly handsome looks make everyone stop and give him a quick hug at every event he attends. He needs little to no grooming due to his short coat. Obie is a serious foodie and perks up at the first crinkle of the treat bag. He's so intiligent that he realized that when we are at an event next to Totful Treat, he will sit infront of their table, prim and proper, waiting for someone to pet him. Then he slowly looks over his shoulder at the sample treats hoping his newest "victim" will feed him one. He’s actually so excited about his meals that he needs to eat from a puzzle bowl to slow him down. Obie is leash trained, gets along with most other dogs and LOVES to sit on any and all chairs. Obie is just one of those dogs who really knows how to make a person feel special. Meet him and you’ll see. He’s currently accepting applications for his new lucky family members Because of my Flight Risk I cannot be left unattended in a yard, crate training is a must when you are gone, tight grip on the leash is a must on adventures and my new family must be aware of open doors and windows.  NO offleash activities in unfenced areas for life.
