Forever foster or adopter wanted! Pepper joined us from OC Animal care and was heavily neglected. He had an ulcerated mass removed, had spiders and other insects crawling out of his matted fur during grooming, and has dry eye. He has a few other masses, we are evaluating whether one large one can be removed. Due to his age and medical condition we are seeking a FORVER FOSTER for him in San Diego or Orange County. Thats means Lionel's Legacy will cover his medical care for life through our participating vets.Fill out an adoption application directly on our website at www.lionelslegacy.org

He's enjoying pets and a compliant little guy.History: Exposed to parvo in the shelter and as a result at risk of euthanasia.

Story

Meet Brinkley! DOB: August 2023Weight: 16lbsDisposition: Confident, playful, affectionate — this girl is the perfect little social butterfly! Unlike her shy brother, she knows exactly what she wants and isn’t afraid to ask for it: attention! She’s playful, outgoing, and loves being around people. She has a fun, happy personality and is always ready for some love, cuddles, and a little bit of fun.History: She was saved from a kill shelter in Downey after being placed in a row of kennels labeled “parvo exposed,” despite testing negative for parvo herself. Because of the shelter’s circumstances, she was at risk of euthanasia. She came into the shelter with her brother and sister. Their brother was fortunate enough to be adopted directly from the shelter, and we stepped in to save this sweet girl and her brother so they could have the chance they deserved. Best Home: She would thrive in a loving home where she can be part of the family and get plenty of attention, affection, and playtime. She would be a wonderful companion for someone looking for a fun, outgoing dog with a big personality and lots of love to give.Amazing Qualities: 🐾 Confident and outgoing🐾 Playful and fun-loving🐾 Loves attention🐾 Affectionate and people-oriented🐾 Happy, social personality🐾 Ready to leave her shelter past behind and find her forever familyShe may have entered the shelter with her brother, but this girl has a personality all her own—and she’s ready to make sure everyone knows just how special she is. ❤️If you're interested in meeting this dog, please visit our website to fill out an adoption application: www.thebarkinglot.net/adoptOur dogs are located in San Diego County, CA.
