Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Matt Matt was abandoned and left to survive with his friend around a garage, forgotten, starving and scared. No dog should ever know that kind of loneliness. Thankfully, Matt and his friend Hudson were rescued just in time. Today, Matt is safe, healthy, and has learned that us humans can be kind. His transformation is unbelievable, he actually looks like a miniature black lab Mix, but i think he's a mixture of sweetness. Matt, urgently needs a foster home or forever family to call his own. Without a foster home his journey can’t truly move forward. By opening your heart and home, you give Hudson the comfort and stability he’s been denied for far too long. TLC K9 Rescue covers all of his medical needs — all Matt needs is a safe place to land while we find his forever family. Please don’t let Matt wait any longer. If you live in San Diego County or surrounding areas have a home with a secured yard and would love to give Matt a new beginning then please Apply to foster or adopt: www.tlck9rescue.org You could be the reason his story finally has a happy ending. &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.January 24, 2026, 9:22 pm

How Onyx arrived: Onyx was brought in by her previous owner on November 11, 2025. Why Onyx is the one for you:Say hello to Onyx, a charming and smart pup looking for her new home! Onyx is sweet, cuddly, curious and observant, and always excited to greet her people when they return home. She is also super coordinated and can catch treats from across the room! She is very food motivated and ready to learn new tricks. Onyx enjoys sniffing on walks to investigate anything in her path. She thrives best in a calm, structured environment without the hustle and bustle of other pets or young children (under 8). She'll need a family who understands her unique needs, including supervision when outside - Onyx is quite the jumper and can clear a fence if given the chance! With some training and continued support, Onyx has all the potential to blossom into a confident, happy companion. If you're looking for an energetic and affectionate pup, Onyx could be the one for you! At SDHS:Onyx has been vaccinated, microchipped and spayed. Onyx is now ready for her new home!
