Story
Ava is a soulful, resilient, deeply affectionate dog who has been through more than any dog ever should, yet her heart remains wide open. Abandoned in the desert while pregnant, Ava survived long enough to reach an organic waste facility, where she gave birth to nine puppies beneath a metal trash bin. Several did not survive. Against all odds, Ava proved to be an extraordinary mother- gentle, attentive, and devoted. That chapter is behind her now. Ava is ready for a safe, stable home where she can finally exhale and be someone's steady companion (and she will). I am a professional dog trainer and behaviorist, and Ava is one of THE most remarkable dogs I have ever known. She is highly attuned, loyal, and joyful despite her past. Her favorite place is simply near her person. Ava thrives with calm, confident humans who value structure, routine, and emotional steadiness. She is selectively social with dogs and has high prey drive, so a home without cats or small animals is best.

Story
Arena is a sweet, affectionate, energetic dog looking for a loving home through no fault of her own. She was adopted from Animal Friends of the Valleys in Wildomar, CA by my stepdad, who sadly passed away in January 2025. My mother has cared for her since then, but due to health issues, she can no longer give Arena the attention, exercise, and companionship she deserves. Arena was born April 30, 2021. She is blonde/fawn, lean, athletic, and appears to be a terrier mix. We are doing an Embark breed and health test for her future family. Arena is loving, playful, fast, and happiest near her person. She enjoys toys, running, resting in her bed nearby, and trying to sneak onto the couch. She is very friendly, sometimes overly excited, and may pull/bark on leash to greet dogs or people or chase cats. She needs patience, structure, exercise, and basic training. She is not destructive and is quiet in a crate. We love her deeply and hope to find her a safe home, not a shelter.

Story
Roe is a sweet young girl. We were gifted with her from a friend who couldn't have dogs. They said she didn't do well with cats. When we took her for walks, she gets really anxious around other dogs so she doesn't get out much. But she's a playful girl. She's great with my teenage daughters and is always up for running around a spacious and grassy area. She is house trained so she goes to the bathroom outside. She is super friendly with other humans. She is about 3 years old. Sadly with our busy schedules and need to relocate, we can't keep her. We haven't had the time to train her to be around other dogs so she gets super anxious. She also doesn't like to be left alone so we advise for someone to take her with a lot of time and patience.
