Pug Boston Terrier

Male, Adult
Lake Forest, CA
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
He just wants to be with his humans, is a good companion, and is quirky and stubborn but can make you laugh because he is so weird. He loves all food and car rides. Would be good with a senior and someone who likes to cook.' Also, Buddy Lou “brings his personality to the table!” - Buddy Lou's Foster Mom. Now, how can you say no to that!?Buddy Lou is a 6.5-yr-old Pug/Boston Terrier who loves his people, is crate trained, and knows place. He typically looks to his people for direction and knows to wait. Super happy, 29-pound Buddy always has a smile. Buddy also never met a snack he didn't like. To maintain his svelte physique, which is important to keep his back healthy, he eats a high fiber diet of raw veggies and weight maintenance dry food. Don't let that description fool you...he loves them! He also takes supplements for his joints and back. Buddy Lou just really wants a forever home with someone who will take good care of him and keep him as happy, healthy, and loving as he is right now. He’d do best in a home with older children (teens) and would thrive as an only dog. Want to meet this little guy? Fill out an application today!April 24, 2024, 12:44 am

Story
Meet 1.5 year old, 17 lb, playful Pug/Pomeranian pup, Tobie. Tobie came to us from a loving home that took him in temporarily to help his original owner...and ended up keeping him. Unfortunately, due to unforeseen issues, the family can no longer keep him. Tobie has been well-socialized. He loves attention, being with people, and walks. Toby is great with other dogs and children. As an energetic puppy, there are times when his rambunctiousness is too much for older dogs. Thus, we recommend a home for him with another young dog to play with, or with an active family, who has the time to give him the love, attention, and playtime he needs daily. Tobie is crate-trained and knows several basic commands. Apply at adoptocpets.org/adopt

Story
Meet Rosie - the amazing Pug! She is six years old and a very low energy, easy going dog and will adapt to whatever you are doing. Pugs just love to be with their people. Getting some fresh air and baking in the sun are favorite pastimes for Rosie. She will also do a couple zoomies and play with the other dogs for fun. She loves her walks and goes for a mile when weather is cool (careful with pugs they can overheat). She loves when the neighborhood children come to visit and shower her with attention. She is very people and dog friendly and she would do well going everywhere with you. She can sit on the couch with you or lay to the side and be happy. She likes her chew toys so have some ready on hand. Rosie makes herself fit right in and is the most loving sweet dog. Be sure to brush your Pug because they are double coated and can shed. Rosie is very special and you'll fall in love with her funny snore when she is sleeping. If it sounds like a good match, get your application in today! If you are interested in adopting, please visit the I.C.A.R.E. Dog Rescue website and complete an adoption application: www.icaredogrescue.org/ready-to-adopt Adoption fee includes: spay/neuter • shots up to date • micro-chip • fecal and vet check Breeds and age are not guaranteed.

Drizzle - Adopt Me!

English Bulldog

Female, Adult
Lake Forest, CA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Drizzle’s foster mom wants you to know that “Drizzle has a joy for life especially when she flips over on her back and wiggles around. This zest transfers over to you in complete laughter and happiness. You can’t help but enjoy life with her!”Drizzle’s perfect morning looks like this: a car ride, yoga on the bluff in the sunshine with her foster mom, lots of affection, another car ride, and a toy to play with or chew on. Then home so her foster mom can go to work, and she can hang out in her bed, snoring through video calls. Drizzle is about 7 years old and 65 lbs., and mornings like this have given her a whole new perspective on how great life can be! In her previous life, where she may have been used as a breeder mama, Drizzle was left with some hip issues that limit her walks to just a few blocks, but that won’t stop her from trying to pull on her leash a little if she gets the chance (don’t give her the chance)! Drizzle can be a bit stubborn and is working on her leash skills. She’s also learning how to sit (and practicing before every meal!), is completely housetrained, and is looking to her humans for direction. She can be the proverbial bull[dog] in a China shop, so would likely do better with older kids rather than little ones. Drizzle loves meeting people and dogs on her walks, and she is doing great at cohabitating with her foster dog sibling. One of her best tricks is giving the cutest little kisses - you have to experience them!Drizzle’s foster mom reports, 'She really just wants someone to love her, which is very easy to do with her sweet personality.' If you are ready to enjoy life with Drizzle, please fill out an application today!April 24, 2024, 12:44 am

Story
This girl was in bad shape before we rescued her; she was saved off the streets, but she is looking much better now. Bougee looks like a big ol’ Bulldog in photos, but she's actually one of the tiniest Bulldogs you've ever seen! She's a compact 34 pounds and about 5 years old. This girl is guaranteed to make you laugh every day, but she has the personality of a typical Bulldog--she's extremely stubborn and needs a strong pack leader to set clear boundaries in her life to thrive. She's playful but doesn't like to play with tennis balls or small balls; nope, she is crazy about a soccer ball or a football. She has a very high prey drive when out on walks. She would do best in a home without kids. After a short walk, she's ready to eat and then nap hard! She loves to nap with her tongue hanging out, it's super cute.April 24, 2024, 12:44 am

Story
Friendly, affectionate, and entertaining, Droopy wants to have a romp with his toys or go on a walk, then to rest that big ol’ head on your lap while you scratch his chin. As his foster family lovingly explains, Droopy “will be your best friend but also needs 23 hours of sleep per day.” He knows how to sit on command and takes his treats very gently. Around 10 years old, this big (83 lbs.), handsome guy is crate trained, potty trained and knows the basics. He can be stubborn at times (isn't that part of their charm?).Droopy was found as a stray and is ready to live the good life with you. Fill out an adoption application today!April 24, 2024, 12:44 am
