Story
Trooper is a smart, loyal boy who truly loves his people and his pack. Inside the home, he is mellow and easygoing, but once outdoors, his playful, energetic side shines. He is a big fan of fetch, tug‑of‑war, daily walks, and backyard playtime. Chew toys and bones are also high on his list of favorite things. Trooper would thrive in a home with a yard and plenty of companionship and patience; another friendly pet or someone who works from home or is retired would be ideal. He knows basic commands like sit and stay, is fully potty‑trained, and walks well on‑leash. He was not well socialized when he was younger, so he can be nervous around unfamiliar dogs. With patience and positive experiences, he can continue building confidence. Trooper is not crate-trained and does have separation anxiety, so he needs an adopter willing to help him work through that with gentle structure and consistency. He is healthy, up‑to‑date on vaccinations, and ready for a loving home.

Story
Sandi is a 7-year-old terrier mix that we adopted from Baja Dog Rescue in 2019. She is spayed, professionally trained, and very loyal to her people. She loves spending time outside, chasing lizards in the backyard, and these days is just as happy relaxing in the sun taking naps.Sandi is protective and territorial, so she does bark at strangers or activity around the house, but she responds well to her training and commands. She is great with other dogs but would do best in a home with adults or older children who understand dogs and boundaries.We want to be fully transparent that Sandi is anxious around small children. We believe she may have experienced abuse before we adopted her. She has shown aggressive behavior toward little kids in the past, although she has never bitten anyone. Because of this, we believe the safest and best fit for her would be a home without young children.

Story
My name is Gorda. I was adopted from the Humane Society shelter when I was only 2yrs old. I’m 7yrs old now, and I’m a bit socially anxious with other animals so I never had any fur brothers or sisters but I love people! Kids under the age of 10 make me nervous but I’m super friendly other wise. I have a bit of itchy skin due to some slight skin allergies, but I’ve been going to the vet to get treatment. I don’t chew on furniture, or bark unnecessarily and am well potty trained. I learned to walk without tugging, but I love to play tug a war and fetch even at 7 years old and tend to get the zoomies when I’m excited. I LOVE belly rubs and sleeping next to my special person. I eat dry kibble that helps support my sensitive stomach and skin. I love the outdoors but I can be an inside dog as well and a quick learner. I hope I can find my forever home soon.💜

Story
Adopted Remington about 1.5 years ago from Animal Friends of the Valley in Wildomar CA. They had him listed as an Australian Cattle dog mix. We decided that must be very incorrect. But really who cares what he is besides the fact that he is a great dog. He loves his family. Loves playing and loves some time one on one. He is well trained to go outside when he needs to, sometimes I feel like I am the one being trained. He stares you down. He loves dog parks and often is there of the party. Not uncommon to see him with three other dogs rasslin' and boxing. He isnt mean at all but wants to play. Very observant dog. He will alert you not by barks but just in the way he watches something. A time or two let me know a coyote was ahead of us on our night walks just by the way his mood changes. Love this dog, but military orders across the pond has led us to look for new family options.

Story
Lucy is a 45-pound mixed-breed dog who will be turning 7 years old soon. We adopted her from the San Diego Humane Society about 1.5 years ago. Shortly after adopting her, we discovered she had glaucoma and was already blind in one eye. To keep her comfortable and pain-free, she underwent surgery to remove the affected eye. Lucy has adapted incredibly well and lives a happy, normal life as a one-eyed dog. She is one of the calmest, sweetest, and most affectionate dogs we have ever met. She loves being around her people and is content simply relaxing with the family. One of Lucy’s most special qualities is her gentle temperament. We have been raising a baby around her, and she has been wonderful throughout the entire process—patient, calm, and loving. She has never let her vision loss affect her happy personality or her ability to be a great companion. Making the decision to rehome Lucy has been incredibly difficult. With the addition of a baby to our family and changing work schedule
