Story
Meet Goldie! Goldie is one of Lali’s adorable puppies, and this little girl is full of personality. A pug mix, she's feisty, playful, and endlessly snuggly—the perfect combination of fun and affection. Goldie loves to play and is a wonderful playmate, always ready to bounce into action or curl up for some cuddle time when she’s worn herself out. She is around 3 months old and will be a smaller mix! Goldie is great with other dogs, cats, and kids of all ages, making her a fantastic fit for many types of homes. She’s still a puppy and is working on her potty training, learning more each day with guidance and consistency. With her happy spirit and loving nature, Goldie is sure to bring joy and laughter wherever she goes. Is Goldie the playful little sweetheart you’ve been dreaming of?

Story
Meet Lali! Lali is a young pug with a big heart and an even bigger personality. She was rescued from euthanasia at a local shelter along with her three nursing puppies, and now it’s finally her turn to be loved. Lali is a joyful, playful girl who gets along wonderfully with other dogs and kids of all ages. When playtime is over, she’s happiest curled up close, soaking up all the cuddles she can get. She is a little under a year old and around 14 pounds! Lali is almost fully potty trained and is continuing to work on her leash skills and basic training. She’s a clever little climber and can make her way out of a low pen, so she’s also practicing her crate skills to help set her up for success. With guidance and consistency, Lali is eager to keep learning. Fun, affectionate, and full of love, Lali would make a wonderful companion in just about any home. Could this sweet pug be the missing piece in your family?

Story
FTA app: https://form.jotform.com/201793643882060 The girl with the winning smile! Hey guys! I am Sussie, Sussie Q. I am a 4 year old, female Pug mix, spayed and about 11 lbs. Heard of the Chandler 55 case? Yes, I am a part of the disabled hoarded dog pack that was rescued from the monster house. With my sweet spirit and smile, you'd never guess what I have gone through. But only when you see my vet report! It's manageable I pawmise. I have Congenital Angular front limb deformity and Chronic orthopedic condition that affects mobility in hind legs that may have been caused by soft tissue injury that has healed. I do take dasuquin  for help. As long as I am being medically managed for mobility issues no surgery is necessary, but will not know know more until later. Surgery will be my adopter's financial responsibility if it is determined it is needed later by our future established vet. Regarding my training, I am leash trained for the 5-10 min walks I take due to leg deformities. The stroller with a soft blankie is my friend! I am pee pad trained. I am not crate trained. Now coming to my personality, the best part! My mama says that I am an absolute perfection! I love playing with dogs and toys, chewing on bones and sometimes your stuff haha but being all cute about it! I am a lap dog and you'd love my snuggles. If I could climb up on your shoulders and into your skin, I would do it! We can be best mates watching tv, all cuddling and being adorable. I am quite fond of dogs, but they have to have a sweet temperament because I can be the big mama. No cats please! I am very good with kids! I do get separation anxiety where I get anxious and scream, but having another dog completely calms me. I am obviously not a hiking dog, but I do make a good cafe date in my stroller. I am always grateful for my rescue and leaving behind that house of horrors. I do a lil dance when I get a new soft blanket and my zeal is infectious. I am the absolutely cutest little nugget that everyone falls in love with when they meet. I am looking for only the best home that will spoil me rotten because that is what this little princess deserves. If there are no dogs in the home I will need humans around for companionship. Any DINK couple around that likes to bring their dog everywhere with them? I am looking for a home with the best chew bones, softest blankets, and good sunbathing spots. If you think you have that X-factor, let's go get a drink together! My adoption fee is $300 and that includes spaying/neutering, shots, and microchip.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Foster or forever home wanted, meet Hugo! Hugo arrived at the Hesperia Shelter back on January 7th at just a little over three months old. He had no identification and no one ever came looking for him.  It's hard to believe but a fact of life in today's current animal crisis of overcrowded shelters, Hugo was in trouble. We couldn't let this puppy's life end before it ever started so we arranged to get him out of the shelter.  Hugo came in with another pug named Percy. Percy was about to meet the same fate and since here at Labradors and Friends, we don't leave anyone behind, he got a freedom ride too. They are your typical happy, wiggly, full of energy puppies. We don't know much more about them but will update as new information becomes available. If you are interested in meeting Hugo, please head over to labradorsandfriends.org to fill out an application. Hugo is located in Southern California. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.January 24, 2026, 12:48 pm
