Story
This adorable little lady is looking for her forever home. Paris is spayed, fully house-trained, and up to date on all vaccinations.   She has a loving, social personality and does great with people, other dogs, and even cats. At 3 years old, she has the perfect balance of playful energy and calm companionship.   Like many dogs, she can be a little protective of high-value items (such as food or special treats), so she will do best with a family that understands giving her space during meals and can continue positive reinforcement around sharing. With clear routines and respectful boundaries, she thrives.   She’s a wonderful dog who will do best in a home that appreciates her communication and helps her feel secure.     Please reach out if you’d like more information or feel you might be a good match.   ##2614940##

Bilbo

Maltese Terrier (Unknown Type, Small)

Male, 5 yrs 8 mos
Yucaipa, CA
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Bilbo is a 5-year-old Maltese and Poodle mix who came to YAPS after being found wandering the streets. He was withdrawn, very frightened, and would not interact with staff. However, after many weeks, he began to slowly trust again and rebuild his confidence, thanks to the kindness and patience of the staff and volunteers.  Bilbo showed signs of improvement, but never so much as when a young, friendly, playful dog was placed in his kennel. Bilbo was relaxed, happy, and wagging his tail. His rehabilitation continued when placed with a foster family who provided the care and attention he deserved. Bilbo has been through a lot and would now love to find his very own stable, loving, forever home he so deserves.

Story
Meet Bilibo (aka Bill): The Spicy Snack-Loving Icon You Never Knew You Needed 🐾 Listen… Bill isn’t for everyone. He’s a little “partially house-trained, slightly judgy, and gives out his love like it’s an exclusive VIP membership”. But for the right person? He’s your ride-or-die. 💥 Pros: ✔️ Will hear you open the fridge from 3 zip codes away. ✔️ Loves “kisses, kisses” if you’re on his approved list. ✔️ Gets along great with other dogs. ✔️ Looks like a scruffy little rockstar who doesn’t care about your HOA rules. ⚡️ Cons (but like… funny ones): ✖️ He’s choosy with humans. (Don’t take it personally, Karen.) ✖️ “Partially” house-trained. (Let’s call it rustic charm.) ✖️ Will probably sass you if dinner’s late. 🎯 Bill needs a human who: ✔️ Gets his sense of humor ✔️ Knows the fridge is now a shared resource ✔️ Understands true love is earned, not given away free 🚨 I’ve fostered this guy WAY too long. He’s ready for his forever home where he can live his main character energy. 📦 Adoption includes: 1 Spicy Dog Lifetime supply of personality A heart that will melt (eventually)
