Story
How this pet arrived: Oso was brought in by his previous owner on July 9, 2025. Why this pet is the one for you:Meet Oso, a fluffy boy with a heart full of love and a mellow personality to match. Oso is a sweet senior who adores being around people and has reportedly done well with cats, dogs, and even young kids-he's truly a social butterfly at heart! However, Oso does struggle with being left alone and may show signs of separation-related stress. Because of this, his new family should be ready to help him feel safe and secure when home alone. This might include gradual alone-time training, using calming enrichment activities, or arranging for a dog sitter. While he can be a little nervous around new people, Oso warms up quickly and has a lot of love to give. He's looking for a family that understands his needs and will help him settle in for a comfy retirement filled with companionship, patience, and gentle care. At SDHS:Oso has been vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. Oso is now ready for his new home! Primary Color: White Weight: 16.2 Age: 11yrs 2mths 3wks

Story
How this pet arrived: Teddy was brought in by a community member on June 28, 2025.Why this pet is the one for you:Meet Teddy - a sweet, tail-wagging teddy bear on four paws! He's got that cozy, well-loved charm that only comes with a little extra experience. This guy knows how to say hello with a happy wiggle and is all about gentle moments and quiet cuddles. Teddy's working on fluffing up his coat and getting back to his teddy bear best. He'll need regular grooming to keep his fur soft and mat-free - because every teddy deserves to look sharp! He's a bit sensitive around the ears, so slow, gentle pats are the perfect way to make him feel comfy. This gentle guy came in a little on the slim side, but with some tasty meals and lots of TLC, he's steadily filling out his cuddly frame. A dental check-up is on the horizon to keep that teddy bear smile sparkling bright. Teddy is ready to settle into a cozy spot, don't forget a leash and a collar! Primary Color: White Weight: 11.9 Age: 11yrs 5mths 4wks

Story
Meet Bo, a lovable 7-year-old rescue pup with a heart of gold. Adopted as a young puppy, Bo was raised alongside kids, another dog, and several cats. He's incredibly social, gentle, and easygoing. Bo is the ultimate adventure buddy, always ready for a hike or a game of fetch, and happiest when he's part of the action. He's sweet, very submissive, and gets along beautifully with both people and other animals. Bo thrives on companionship and would love to be part of a family or be a best friend to someone that has time to include him in daily life. Due to a recent personal tragedy, we're heartbroken to say that we can no longer give Bo the time and attention he deserves. We're looking for a loving home where he'll be cherished and included. He deserves a place where his friendly spirit and loyal heart can truly shine.

These pups are in Carlsbad, California too!

Story
Hello People, My name is Vivi and I’m a sweet and quite sassy little girl of five looking for a forever home. My foster Mom says I’m very loving and affectionate -- and as feminine as they come. I’m all of 12 pounds, am housebroken (and use the doggy door) and I love my crate. I even put myself to bed at night if I’m tired (but Mom lets me come in to the Big People’s Bed in the morning for a cuddle or two or three!) Dad says I’m a diamond in the rough. He and Mom are doing their best to teach me the proper way to behave in the world. I’m definitely making progress but will need to continue my ‘learning’ with someone who is a super smart and VERY savvy dog person. If that sounds like you, please read on! While I am long on (good) looks and cute as can be, I’m also pretty willful. I like to do what I like to do (which is why I need someone who is smarter than I am and will guide me into perfect behaviors.) I walk well on a leash and am learning to relax in the car. I do best on short drives and when I can listen to music. I do love to cuddle and am known for springing up into your lap to cuddle at the slightest provocation and wanting you to pet my head ( but only my head, please!). If you are lying on the sofa, I love to roll on top of you and make cute little "snorty" noises as I turn around. Unfortunately I’m not a pup that is good around children. If you have children or grandchildren that visit I’m not the one for you. Sorry! I’m an ‘adults-only’ kind of pup. Mom says before I became a FurKid I was adopted simply because I am cute. So I formed some bad habits that she is helping me to overcome. Since I’m smart, I’m definitely learning what to do and not do. I’m also a bit selective about making friends. I bark when people come to the door (Dad says I’m a great watchdog) but when I know someone, I’m much friendlier. I also guard my toys, which is why I’m best as the only pup in the house. My Ideal Home: *Someone home most of the time * NO other FurKids--as I like to be the center of attention * Adults only * NO children or grandchildren * Committed to training me Experience level: *Recent dog experience a must! *Rescue dog experience a plus! *Experience with behavioral training a real plus!!! Because I wasn’t successful in my ‘past life’ I’m hoping to make up for lost time – and am looking for adopters who will appreciate my femininity and my affectionate nature – and will continue to work on my training so I can become the best little girl that I can be. Mom says there is no doubt that I’m well worth the effort but you have to know my signals so that I can be successful. If I sound like the pup you are looking for please let us know. It will be a very special home to which I am adopted as I’m a very special kind of pup. If that sounds like you, please send an email explaining your experience and background to bfkapplicants@gmail.com If you sound like you represent a fit, we will be back in touch. Tail wags and cuddles, Vivacious, Intelligent and Very Independent Vivi

Story
Hi Everyone, My name is Gregarious Georgie and I’m a loving, cuddly and affectionate pup who is a bichon/maltese mix that is three years old and lots of fun! I have silky cream colored hair with apricot coloring around my eyes and mouth, expressive brown eyes and a perpetual smile. My foster Mom says I’m adorable and a joy to have around. Grandma says I’m attentive, loyal and very sweet. She also says that I’m doing my absolute best to be your bestest friend in the world. I’m the perfect companion, as I am happy to hang out with you when you watch TV, work at your desk, talk on the phone, cook a meal, go for a walk or enjoy the backyard. I simply want to share your world and let you know how much I appreciate you! Did I mention that I like other dogs --as well as little ones called kids and big ones called adults? Well, I do as I’m a happy dog who gets along with everyone. (Mom says to tell you I am a little shy at first with strangers but I warm up quickly!) Grandma says I’m a sporty little dog too. I love to play tennis (no rackets please, just balls) and I often toss the tennis ball to my Mom to encourage her to play. I also love to run track. I race all around the yard after my doggy foster sibling. We have a great time together! And because I’m a good sport, I often let her win! I also like to train so I’m happy to run around by myself too. I’m also housebroken (I go to the door to let you know it’s time to go out) and, like most other FurKids, I’m very social! I like to go on walks and rides (in the car, that is) love being touched and petted, enjoy receiving back rubs and tummy scratches and I smile all the time!!! After playing and having fun, I’m happy to cuddle with you and give you kisses so you feel loved too. And while I’m crate trained, I also like to sleep quietly on my own bed all night long. My Ideal Home: *An active person who is also home a lot and likes to walk, go for rides and cuddle *Another active, playful dog would be nice *I can also be an ‘only’ pup if I get to do playdates with other pups *Adults or a family would be perfect Experience level: *Have had dogs as an adult *Recent/current dog experience a plus Mom says I’m a little ball of sunshine who will light up your life – and that I’m a very special little guy who has been a delight to everyone to have in her home. So if you’re looking for a new little buddy to cuddle with, walk with, talk to, and hang out with, I’m applying for the job. Please ask for me so we can meet. Loves and licks, Gorgeous, Gentle and Good-Natured Georgie

Story
Hello New Friends, My name is Chipper—and my name fits me perfectly! I’m a playful, joyful little guy, about 2 years old, weighing just 16.5 pounds, with the prettiest white coat and a few apricot patches on my back and tail. My foster mom says I’m full of fun and sweetness—and that I love every minute of life! I’m the kind of pup who bounces happily around the house and yard, rolling on my back, tossing toys, and showing off my “moves”. I follow her from room to room, tail wagging and ready for whatever adventure comes next. When playtime’s over I’m all about snuggles. I’ll squeeze right in with the other pups to cuddle on your lap in front of the TV. There is no doubt that I really love to be close to my people. I get along wonderfully with my foster doggy siblings (there are four of them)! We have the bestest time playing together. I haven’t met any cats or kids yet, but am friendly with every person I’ve met! I’m a meeter-and-greeter kind of pup! I’m great in the car, know commands like “sit,” “come,” and “lay.” and happy to learn more and I sleep quietly in my crate all night. I rarely bark and don’t have separation anxiety—I’m totally content hanging out with my doggy pals when you’re away. But when you’re home, you’ll find me lovingly at your side. My Ideal Home MUST Have: - A playful and loving human or family - Another small friendly dog would be amazing, but not required - Time and patience to keep teaching me good habits (I learn fast!) Experience Level: - Any loving family willing to continue my training - Active enough to enjoy yard play and walks I’m just a sweet, young, playful pup with a heart full of love and a whole lot of personality. My foster mom says anyone would be so lucky to have me—and I can’t wait to show you why! Wags, wiggles, and kisses, Chipper the Cheerful Cuddlebug
