Story
We adopted Stella from a rescue in Mexico when she was 6 months old. By that time she had already survived parvo and distemper! She is a sweet dog but does have anxiety and would do best in a house with a yard and no children. We are finding her a new home because she has started exhibiting concerning behavior towards our toddler. She loves to relax at home and run around our backyard, due to her anxiety she does not like to go on walks. Due to her illnesses as a puppy she does have arthritis that only affects her if she runs too much. She also has history of ACL repair to both back legs and a surgery to her right front leg to correct a damaged radial growth plate (all 3 surgeries were in the first year we had her and she has not had any since then).

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Coco Chanel! Coco is a delightful young dog who overcame a challenging start after being abandoned by those meant to care for her. Now thriving in a nurturing foster home with ASR, she has blossomed into a friendly and energetic companion. Coco is playful and has mastered several commands, being trained in both crate, house, and leash use. Coco likes to keep her mind moving, constantly working on her commands. Coco is 2.5 years old and weighs around 45 pounds. Coco would prefer to be the queen of her castle. Although she can be a bit protective and may bark at strangers, once she is given treats, she becomes the gentlest and happiest dog. She is affectionate with people, relishing cuddle time on the couch or bed. Coco needs to stay active; she loves to run and play with enrichment toys. A yard would be perfect for her to expend her energy, and she has a special love for water, especially when the hose is on. To truly thrive, Coco would benefit from an owner who understands her breed and can match her lively spirit, making her an ideal companion for families with older children who are dog savvy and understand the importance of respecting boundaries. She is available for foster-to-adopt! She is also in search of an active foster who can keep her busy with hikes and outings! If interested in fostering Coco, please click HERE! If you would like more info or would like to schedule a playdate, please fill out an application HERE. Coco's adoption fee is $495 and includes her spay, vaccinations, microchip, and flea treatment.

Tirena

Labrador Retriever Shepherd (Unknown Type)

Female, 5 yrs 11 mos
San Diego, CA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
A quiet, mellow lady, Tirena is working on building her confidence. While she is interested in people and always comes to check out the volunteers and visitors, she can be unsure around new faces. However, this shy girl loves other dogs and would thrive in a home with another confident dog whose lead she can follow. She is a great medium size and around two years old. A quiet home where this calm girl can settle into a routine and blossom would be ideal for her. She is not demanding and we imagine a bit of patience with her would go a long way to building a strong, deep bond. You can follow her story on our Instagram to see her amazing progress. We are now looking for the next step in her journey where a patient and loving family can help her succeed.

Penny

Labrador Retriever

Female, 11 mos
San Diego, CA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Penny, a delightful teenage girl who arrived at the Bakersfield Shelter as a stray alongside her two brothers. Her two brothers left the shelter while Penny continued to wait patiently. She briefly experienced a patient foster home with dog-savvy cats before ASR intervened and brought her to San Diego. Penny faced a challenge with a previous eye injury that resulted in the loss of one eye, but she is adapting remarkably well, learning to navigate her surroundings with newfound confidence. This energetic pup thrives in an environment with a yard and daily walks, and she gets along well with dogs of all sizes. Penny would flourish in a home with children aged 12 and up who can respect her space, as she can be a bit anxious in unfamiliar situations. A confident canine companion would be a great asset for her as she continues to grow. Penny is in search of a patient and loving forever home—could you be the one to provide it?
