Story
Gordita is a 5 year old and 22 pound dog who is looking for her forever home. She is a sensitive soul that can be a little overwhelmed of busy places. With her person, she loves to be pet and has the cutest little personality. I lived with dogs in my previous home, and may get along with your dog! Please speak with your adoption counselor about how to do a slow introductionI have no known history with cats. I may do well with them with a slow introduction.I lived with kids in my previous home and may do well with calm, dog savy children.

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
My brothers, Mickey, Johnny and myself just turned one! We were surrendered by our family to KKPR to alter and rehome us. We have been well-cared for and well-loved. However, we have not been exposed to new people. So, might be shy at first. I am pretty relaxed and chill. I have not been cat tested yet, but Kimie is confident I could cohabitate with a dog savvy cat. As far as potty-training goes, we prefer going outside, if we are not let outside, we will use potty pads.

Female, 6 mos
Rescue, CA
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
I was recently surrendered as me and my five littermates were unintended and are all in need of foster or forever homes. We were born 8/20/25, are fully vetted and are ready for our forever homes. Kimie has not been able to get to know each of us separately. However, she does know this...We are all pretty easygoing. We like to play but also like to rest, cuddle and give kisses. We have not yet been cat-tested by Kimie, but she feels that any of us would get along with a dog-savvy cat. Since we have not had a lot of socialization, we tend to be shy at first. As far as potty-training goes, we prefer going outside. However, if we are not let outside, we will use potty pads.

I also have an overbite, which Kimie thinks is adorable. Thus far, it has not affected my chewing, however, it should be watched closely by a Veterinarian.
