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
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Forever Home Wanted: Meet Hugo! Hugo is a 24 lb pug mix with a big heart and an even bigger love for people. This little guy is happiest when he’s with his humans or hanging out with other dogs. He’s your typical happy-go-lucky, full-of-energy, wiggly puppy who absolutely loves toys and is always ready for playtime. He’s been fostered with an 80 lb shepherd and an 8 lb chihuahua, and he does great with both. Hugo enjoys playing with his dog friends but also does a wonderful job respecting their space when playtime is over. Hugo is also being fostered with a toddler, and he has proven to be incredibly gentle and sweet with young children. He’ll happily chase after them during play without jumping or knocking them over, and he takes treats softly and politely; making him a wonderful candidate for a home with kids. Potty training and crate training are still a work in progress, but Hugo is making improvement. He’s looking for a family who will continue to train him so he can keep growing into the well-mannered pup we know he can be. If you’re looking for a fun, loving little pup to join your family and tag along on all of life’s adventures, Hugo just might be your perfect match.  If interested in meeting Hugo, please fill out an application at www.labradorsandfriends.org. Hugo is located in Southern California.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 16, 2026, 4:22 pm
