Story
Bruno is such a good boy! 1 year old. Super playful with other dogs, and kids. He listens and behaves. He’s not yet potty trained, but he’s learning how to use the back door follows the other dogs to go pee outside more often than before. We took him in after a neighbor said they needed to move and rehome him. They wanted to take him to a shelter But we took him in. The pet fee covers his neutering surgery, grooming and other pet goodies we got for him.

Story
Sammy is a very sweet and gentle dog with everyone he meets, he loves to play with dogs and loves the cats a lot, in fact he would love to live with a dog friendly cat. He is on a limited ingredient diet, chicken causes his eyes to be goopy, so no chicken please. He is 90% percent housetrained, and will need some guidance to learn how to walk on a leash.

Story
LEON-URGENT-Help Needed LEON is a handsome white Maltese/Poodle, about 7 years old, 12 pounds, who we saved from the pound. He looked pretty awful but he now has been cleaned and groomed, which really perked him up. LEON has a foster home, but is awaiting surgery. Many of the pups we get from the pound have been abandoned either because they were no longer wanted or because their medical needs were too expensive and people just did not want to deal with it. Sometimes they are found wandering the streets when someone saves them and turns them in to the shelter. Even though we have rescue discounts from our wonderful vets, surgeries and special procedures and all the diagnostics are often insurmountable. LEON will need several tumors removed, that we think are not cancer, but invasive nonetheless. Like many neglected small dogs, his teeth and gums are in horrendous condition, and some extractions will probably be needed. So we are hoping for a sponsor or guardian for LEON until he is ready for adoption. For more information about LEON, please contact us at: theanimalsleftbehind@socal.rr.com (also our Paypal email address for donations and sponsorships)

Story
Charlie is a (naked) Maltese who's about 7 years old and weighs 11 pounds.  This poor guy has a heartbreaking story.  His owner, an older lady who adored him, passed away last year.  Her callous, inhumane daughter took Charlie and kept him in one room of the house the majority of the time.  She had a daughter who she said had anxiety and couldn't handle Charlie barking (because he was lonely!) so she decided to get rid of him.  The completely bizarre thing is she shaved this poor dog to the skin!  When the person who intervened before the daughter took him to the shelter asked why she shaved him like that, she replied that she didn't want hair on the furniture!  He's NOT a shedding dog!  Honestly, I hope her mother comes back to haunt her for the rest of her life!  You can see by Charlie's "before" pic that the mother took excellent care of him.  Despite the last horrific year, Charlie's sweet temperament has not been damaged and he's still an affectionate, sweet guy which is a testament to the resilience of dogs. Charlie loves to go for walks and is great in the car.  He's well-behaved and loves attention and cuddling.  His favorite place is by your side or in your lap.  Charlie gets along well with other dogs and is good with kids and excellent in the car.  He's so sweet and easy and small he'll be the perfect companion you can take anywhere.  If you're interested in adopting please fill out the adoption application on our website bichonsandbuddies.com.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 19, 2024, 5:18 pm
