Story

Barkley is a 4-year-old, 14 lb Terrier–Poodle mix who was rescued from the shelter and is ready to enjoy the good life. This happy, social boy loves people—including kids—and has a friendly, outgoing personality that makes him a joy to be around. He's wonderful around dogs and cats too! Barkley would make the perfect co-pilot for outings and adventures, as he truly enjoys being out and about with his people. He prefers a home where his family is around more often than not, as companionship is important to him. He would also thrive in a home with another friendly furry pal to keep him company and share his days with. If you’re looking for a loving, social companion who’s always up for tagging along and being part of the family, Barkley might be your perfect match. Barkley's adoption fee is $500 and includes his neuter, microchip, vaccines/deworming/flea treatment current. Apply at www.lovebugsrescue.org

Story

PLEASE COMPLETE OUR ADOPTION APPLICATION AT WWW.LOVEBUGSRESCUE.ORG IF YOU'D LIKE TO BE CONSIDERED FOR ADOPTION: SPECIAL NEEDS: Say hello to Patsy, a sweet-natured 3-year-old Maltese mix who weighs just 12 pounds but has love enough to fill a whole home. This darling girl charms everyone she meets with her gentle spirit, soft eyes, and cuddly nature. Patsy has a condition called megacolon, which means her colon doesn’t move things along quite as smoothly as it should. With the help of medication, a special diet, and a bit of monitoring, Patsy manages beautifully — though she’ll need a family who understands that sometimes she might need a little extra help. She’s wonderfully well-mannered in the home, walks nicely on leash, and adores spending time with people. Her long, silky coat will need regular grooming to keep her looking as lovely as she feels. Patsy is looking for a patient and loving forever home that will embrace her just the way she is — quirks and all. In return, she promises endless affection, loyalty, and snuggles. Could you be the special person who gives this beautiful girl the life she deserves? Patsy's adoption fee is $400 and includes her spay, microchip, vaccines/deworming/flea treatment all current. apply at www.lovebugsrescue.org

Story

Please do NOT call to ask if this puppy is available for adoption. If this listing is still posted then we are still accepting applications. Please read the narrative in it's entirety. Please note our adoption procedures are explained in GREAT DETAIL BELOW. READ, READ, READ. Thank You. . . . . The best match will be selected and contacted to confirm an appointment at Petsmart in Yorba Linda on Saturday between noon and 3 pm or on a mutually agreeable day, time and place. We do not do out-of-state adoptions for puppies and we cannot hold puppies; please submit your application when you are ready to adopt. If you are interested in meeting any Poochmatch dog, please visit our website to complete an adoption application. It is in the ADOPTION folder at the top of our home page. Just fill in the blanks and SEND. The adoption fees cover the mandatory and non-negotiable spay/neuter, rabies, microchip, microchip registration, core vaccinations including rabies and 4 sets of distemper/parvo and deworming. Adoption fees vary based on age, breed, size and the costs incurred on the dog's behalf by us i.e. medical, behavioral training, etc. Puppies are not house-trained although they may have begun crate-training and/or potty pad training in their foster home, depending on their age. House-training is a process that will need to be completed by their adopter. Puppies, if left unsupervised and not redirected will develop negative behaviors such as using the restroom in the wrong place, chewing, barking, whining, etc. Please be sure to do research on raising a puppy and be sure that you are prepared to do so. This is a great article from 3LostDogs that explains the trials and tribulations of puppyhood: http://3lostdogs.com/things-wish-everyone-knew-before-they-get-dog-2/

Story

Click Here to Sponsor Me! Adoption APPLICATION: Muttsinneed.org/adoption-application ** Application must be completed prior to a meet & greet. Our Adoption Process:Muttsinneed.org/adoption-process Just 2 months ago, Angel was surrendered to the shelter…her small 12lb body burdened by painful growths and the weight of neglect. At her age, many thought her story was over—but Angel had other plans. Today, she is “aging backwards.” (Thanks to her foster parents, Josephine and Mike) After healing from surgery, this resilient senior has traded her bed ridden days for romps in the yard, cuddles with her foster brother, and the simple joy of a pup cup. Angel is living proof that a dog’s past doesn’t define their spirit. She didn’t just survive; she chose to thrive. Now, she just needs a forever home to witness her second act. If you’re looking for a one-of-a-kind pup with a badass back story, apply to meet Angel at https://www.muttsinneed.org/adoption-application.htmlFebruary 2, 2026, 6:58 pm
