Livvi and her sisters were found in a wash in San Bernardino infested with hundreds of ticks and abandoned there to either die of starvation or taken by coyotes. We thank god the finder reached out for help. Livvi is estimated to be about 3 months young.  We believe her breed to be a Maltese mix and currently 9 lbs. She has been to the vet, de-ticked, groomed and put on meds for her scabs on her skin to heal.   She was thoroughly tested and everything came back negative.   No matter what Carly's life was for the first 3 months of her life she is very sweet and loving.  She will never have to be without food or love again.   She loves to play with toys during the day and she sleeps all night!    Livvi is ready to make some family very happy.

Story
Sonny came from the Shelter in January 2026. He is 8 years old. When I first got him, his teeth were really bad so the shelter cleaned and had to remove all of his teeth except the 4 canines. He was very scared at first and opening up slowly. He does not play with toys but loves to nestle himself around your neck. That is his safe place! He sleeps in a crate but allowed to move about during the day with the crate open for his security. He likes car rides, walks, and loves meal times. Sonny is fed Dr. Marty's Natural Blend for 7+ dogs.

Story
How this pet arrived: Montage was brought in by a community member on March 3, 2026 Why this pet is the one for you:Montage is a sweet, sensitive boy who's still learning about the world. He can be a little nervous at first, but with patience and kindness he begins to show his gentle personality. Montage is still working on his leash skills and will benefit from a home that's happy to continue helping him build confidence on walks. He has been social with other dogs in our care, though we recommend slow, thoughtful introductions. If there are children in the home, please have them present for a meet-and-greet and ensure they understand how to read and respect dog body language. With the right support, Montage has the potential to blossom into a wonderful companion Primary Color: Cream Weight: 16.2 Age: 2yrs 0mths 0wks
