Story
Scooby is a sweet middle-aged man looking for his forever home. Scooby loves to chill and relax when he is at home. He has been raised around other dogs, kids, and cats (although not his favorite). He loves to spend time outdoors soaking in the sun, but also laying with his human. His favorite thing is sleeping under the covers in his human's bed at night time and chewing on bones and toys. Even though Scooby has lost his sight, he has learned the word 'Up' when you want him to jump on the couch or bed, and also 'Step' when there is a step up or down that he needs to be aware of. He quickly learns his way around the home as well and would do best in an uncluttered home with limited amount of objects on the floor. Scooby is crate trained to stay in the crate during the day when humans are not at home. He does, however, prefer to sleep in the bed, rather than in the crate overnight. If you are interested in meeting and/or adopting Scooby, please fill out the adoption application and a super cool person from the rescue will contact you to schedule the meet and greet. ** The adoption fee is a tax-deductible contribution to our 501c3 rescue. This fee covers vaccines, deworming, microchipping, and spaying/neutering. Meet and greets will only be arranged after we receive a completed and signed application. Please note that we do not follow a first-come, first-served policy. Instead, we thoroughly evaluate each application to ensure the best possible fit for the pet, considering breed characteristics and the lifestyle of the potential adopter.

Story
This little guy showed up to my neighbor’s front door about six or seven years ago.?He was fully grown at the time, but looked young, maybe a year or two old, so we don’t know his exact age My neighbor, passed away recently, so the pup has been staying with us since. He gets along with my other to dogs great. He loves to go to the dog park and the beach and gets along with everyone. He’s very active when we go out, but also likes to chill on the couch. The owner spent every day with him, so he likes to be around people. I took him to the county to update his license and his rabies shot is good until next year. Also updated his chip registration. He is fixed and he has always been in good health. He seemed to be a bit overweight when he came to live with us, so the vet recommended to drop a few. He’s been doing great since.

Story
We got this dog in Minnesota but he was originally from California Los Angeles we believe. He is two years old. My father bought my mother this dog but we already have one and the one we have doesn’t go along with the new one. But this pug is very friendly he’s very nice and sweet. He’s super friendly with kids. And people. I’m just looking for a nice family to take him in and give him love he needs, we’re all too busy in this house to give a lot of affection.

Story
If you are looking for an affectionate companion to warm your couch by your side, look no further! My name is Valentine (nicknamed Teenie) because Im a teenie ball of love. Im 2 years old but I think im still a puppy. I love playing fetch, catching snacks in my mouth and going on long walks. I am crate and potty trained to go outside for my business. I was trained to know "place", "heal", "sit", "wait", "off/down", and "easy." My owners have an apartment, and work long hours so Im looking for my forever home (hopefully, a single pet home with a yard) where I can settle in and get plenty of attention.
