Story
Meet Goliath! Goliath is a sweet senior boy who came to us from a high-kill shelter after his previous owner could no longer care for him. Having spent his whole life in a home, he was understandably confused about how he ended up there—but thanks to rescue, Goliath is now safe and ready for his next chapter. This spry 13 year old senior is in good health for his age. He weighs about 17 pounds and is currently on the thin side, which is not uncommon for dogs coming from a shelter environment. With consistent meals, patience, and loving care, he is expected to do well. While we’re not certain of his breed, we are certain he’s 100% a good boy. Goliath is dog-friendly, people-friendly, and has a calm, gentle nature that makes him a joy to be around. He would thrive in a quiet, low-key home with someone who values companionship because his favorite thing is to be by your side. He isn't a barker, and is alway eager for a brisk walk. He could use some leash reinforcement as he does tend to pull. Goliath would love a home with a backyard where he can wander and soak up the day at his own pace. If you’re looking to give a deserving senior a loving forever home, please consider opening your heart to Goliath. He’s ready to return that kindness with endless love and companionship. If you are interested in meeting Goliath please complete the adoption application on our website, www.greatpets.org. Goliath is fully vaccinated, neutered and microchipped. His adoption donation is $150.April 14, 2026, 4:26 pm

His gentle demeanor makes him an easy companion—perfect for a quieter home where he can relax and feel secure. He enjoys the simple things in life, like playing with squeaky toys and spending time near his humans. Schnitzel isn’t demanding—he’s just happy to be loved.

Story
Hi There!! Lucy Here, born in rescue in 2014 with 7 other siblings to our Mama Mercedes. I am a sweet girl, very quiet and loving, gentle, obedient and good on leash and love long walks and can walk 3 miles! I love car rides and outdoor dining with you as we are well behaved!. I was available for adoption with my brother Chuck, we looked alike in our faces but not our body, Rescue thinks that Mom was a Puggle and Dad a Schnauzer. All us puppies and Mama were adopted in 2014, we had a family of our own to share, a Mom, Dad our own little girl and a fur sister...We were happy....Then, Our family returned my brother and I to the rescue June 2019, 5yrs later! Why? Because our Dad adopted a pitbull after they adopted us, and they already had a King Charles Cavalier... Why did he do that? who knows ... and that dog was picking on my brother Chuck, and human Mom was too stressed out to handle a new baby and the attacks... So we came back to our Rescuer in search of a loving, quiet home to retire in and take our walks.... we were in foster care a long time till our foster parents decided to travel, and then we became semi permanent residents of our rescuer… my sweet brother Chuck recently crossed over rainbow bridge and I am alone now… I would love nothing more than to be with an active Elder person or couple that takes walks and enjoys my company…. I’m a diamond in the rough I may not be beautiful outside but I’m beautiful inside I’m loyal, dedicated, and obedient… Will you let me spend my final chapters with you? Please consider an elder bonded pair, these pups are so well behaved, they are currently with Foster Parents in Yorba Linda who will tell you how good they are...
