Hi, We have decided to give our dog for adoption because we will soon be renting somewhere else and we can’t bring him with us. It breaks our hearts to have to make this decision but we can’t find any other solution. Panchito is 7 years old, loves with all his heart to play ball he is obsess for balls. He still has a lot of energy for his age but also likes to chill on the couch or on his bed. His potty train, and will let you know definitely when he needs to go outside to do his business. He is a very smart, and playful dog, good with kids and other dogs. We pray with all of our heart someone can give him a home full of love just like he deserves it.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Forever Home Wanted: Meet Nile! Looking for a pint-sized best friend with a big personality? Meet Nile, the charming pug mix who’s ready to wiggle his way into your heart. Though the shelter listed him as a year old, we think Nile is closer to 4–5 years young—and just the right mix of playful and mellow. Rescued alongside his buddy Irvin, Nile is now soaking up the good life and dreaming of a forever family of his own. This little guy is the full package: dog-friendly, cat-friendly, kid-friendly, and people-friendly—basically, friendly all around. He loves toys, happily fetches them again and again, and can often be found snuggled up in a cozy lap between play sessions. Nile would thrive with someone who works from home, since he can be a bit of a shadow (and isn’t shy about letting you know he misses you). He’s the kind of companion who just wants to be where you are—whether that’s a lazy afternoon nap or a weekend adventure. If you’re ready for a loyal sidekick who loves treats, attention, and being part of the action, Nile’s your guy. If interested in meeting Nile, please fill out an application at www.labradorsandfriends.org. Nile is located in Southern California.    Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 1, 2025, 11:23 pm

Story
This is Phiphi, a sweet, loving, and energetic dog who has been part of our family for the past five years. She’s fully potty-trained, loves going outdoors, and is happiest when she’s cuddling next to someone. Phiphi has always been very well-behaved and brings so much joy wherever she goes. The only reason we’re placing her for adoption is because we recently opened a new business, and our schedules no longer allow us to give her the consistent attention and time she truly deserves. We want her to go to a home where she’ll receive all the love, care, and companionship she’s used to and more.

These pups are in Lemon Grove, California too!

Story
Meet Butkus....yep he is definitely not a shar pei. Call it a moment of weakness but seriously how could we let this guy get euthanized over some pretty breed specific medical issues which happen to be right up our alley in the shar pei world. Butkus might be the happiest boy ever. He loves everyone. His tail never stops wagging or what whatever you call that little nub.  Thank God he is cute and sweet because this guy is not the brightest bulb on the tree. So if you are the person who likes your dogs good looking and sweet and not concerned if they never figure out how to sit this is your guy! He loves car rides but so far is not a fan of walking but we are convinced with the help of Bertha he will realize how much he loves it. He is a good sized boy at 58lbs. He was seen by our vet yesterday and like Bertha did have decreased tear production in both eyes. He will need his cherry eyes addressed at time of surgery. His skin is already improved with regular bathing. Fostering in phoenix AZDecember 1, 2025, 3:01 pm

Story
Are you wondering what a shar pei rescue is doing with a pair of bulldogs...well so are we! It was a complete moment of weakness. Meet Bertha. This girl is as wide as she is tall but she has started her intermittent fasting, youtube ab videos and twice a day walks. This girl loves to walk so we are excited to see her waist line start to become visible This girl is great with people and other dogs. She did come in with her man Butkus but they do not need to be adopted together but we would love to see her go to a home with another dog. They had their first vet visit and honestly all their medical issues are pretty much identical to the medical problems we see with Shar Pei. Her tear production was reduced so we are going to assume she will need lifetime eye drops to replace that decreased tear production. Her skin was in great shape but did have an ear infection so an adopter that is familiar with weekly ear maintenance. She loves car rides and walks great on a leash. She is very friendly with all the dogs and people she meets on her daily walks.  She is fostering in Phoenix AZDecember 1, 2025, 3:01 pm
