Story
How this pet arrived:This pet was brought in by a our Humane Law Enforcement on September 4, 2026. Why this pet is the one for you:Meet Waffles, a sweet and gentle pup looking for a loving new home! Waffles can be a bit shy with new faces and spaces and appreciates some extra time to build trust. Once he feels comfortable, he blossoms into a delicate and loving companion. Waffles is an amazing pup who loves rolling onto his back to show his tummy for pets and rubs and sometimes just wants to be cuddled. Because of Waffle's shy nature, he may thrive best in a lower-traffic household with people who would be able to allow him the space and comfort he needs and respect his boundaries. If you're ready to give Waffles the love and care he deserves, speak to an adoption counselor to learn more today! At SDHS:This pet has been vaccinated, microchipped and spayed/neutered. This pet is now ready for adoption! Primary Color: Black Weight: 24.2 Age: 1yrs 1mths 0wks

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Please contact Lauren for more information about this pet.Meet Pugsy Malone! At 10 years young, Pugsy Malone has already overcome one big challenge. After surgery to remove a painful mass on the side of his face, he’s fully healed and feeling better than ever. Now all he needs is a family to call his own. Pugsy is a happy, easygoing little guy who loves people, enjoys his walks, and gets along well with other dogs. He’s the kind of companion who’s simply grateful to be by your side. After everything he’s been through, we’d love nothing more than to see him trade his boarding kennel for a cozy bed, a loving family, and the comfort of a real home. If you’re looking for a loyal, low-key companion to foster or adopt, Pugsy is ready to bring endless love and companionship into your life. If you’re interested in fostering or adopting Pugsy Malone, please submit an application at www.labradorsandfriends.org .

Story
Meet Pudge! From the streets of Mexico to condo life, this almost-one-year-old, 30 lb Puggle mix is living proof that rescue dogs have the best comeback stories. 💚 Pudge is a total ham who has quickly mastered indoor living. Here is why you’ll fall in love: House Trained & Routine Savvy: He has his potty routine down, walks like a champ on the leash, and sleeps soundly in his crate at night. Playful Yet Chilled: He loves a good game of fetch, but he’s just as happy lounging around while you work or relax. Dog Friendly: He loves the company of other dogs and enjoys social time. Pudge has done great meeting kids in passing, though he hasn't lived with them or cats yet. If you’re looking for a fun, affectionate, adaptable buddy to complete your family, Pudge is your guy!

Location: San Diego, CAMeet Romeo — a charming, hunky little gentleman with the cutest underbite and a heart full of love. At 9 years young, this sweet boy still has plenty of pep in his step and so much affection to give.Romeo is happiest when he’s near his people. He gets all wiggly and animated when you talk to him, follows his humans everywhere, and absolutely thrives on attention and cuddles. He loves playing with his tennis ball, going for walks, and soaking up every bit of love he can get.This handsome guy is crate trained, leash trained, and even knows a few tricks! He rides wonderfully in the car and, after a fun day, is perfectly content curling up on the couch for a nap.Romeo enjoys playing with other dogs and is always a good boy. He has also done well with kids and even kitties!Romeo’s ideal home would be with someone who works from home, works part-time, or is retired, as he doesn’t enjoy being left alone for long hours. While he’s not a fan of the crate, he does great gated in the kitchen with his cozy bed and blanket.If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will adore you endlessly and keep you smiling every day, Romeo may just be your perfect match.Please copy & past the link below into your browser for our application:https://www.jotform.com/form/243374218477059Questions?Email us at: info@savethedals.org**Disclaimer: None of our dogs have been DNA tested, so we cannot guaranty they are 100% full pure breeds.**

Story
Hi, I'm Baker! I was once a scared little pup, lost and alone on the side of a busy Las Vegas road. But lucky for me, kind people found me and brought me to safety. Now, I'm looking for my forever home, a place where I can feel loved and protected. I'm a 1-year-old mix, full of love and energy. I love snuggling up with my blanket and giving lots of cuddles. I'm a quick learner and already know how to go potty outside. I'm excited to learn about leashes and toys and explore the world with my new family. Ready to give me a forever home? Inquire about me today! We are also willing to transport him from Las Vegas to CA if needed. Please contact Rob robrhee@me.com 619-818-0754March 8, 2026, 8:45 pm

Story
Pepper is just over 10 years old. We got her from a reputable breeder and she has had no health issues. Currently she limps around a little but is super sweet and calm and gentle. Loves people and other animals. She has been in a diaper for about 2 months because she pees everywhere which is her only real issue.
