Click Here to Sponsor Me! Adoption APPLICATION: Muttsinneed.org/adoption-application ** Application must be completed prior to a meet & greet. Our Adoption Process:Muttsinneed.org/adoption-process Meet Little Boy! This sweet 4-year-old, 15 lb pup has been through a lot but hasn’t lost his loving spirit. He came to us after being hit by a car and left at a shelter with a broken leg. Now fully healed and feeling great, he’s ready to find his forever home! Little Boy is affectionate, playful, and a big fan of both people and other dogs he's properly introduced to. He clearly knew love before and is extremely affectionate with humans. He knows how to use a doggy door trained and he also understands basic commands like “lie down” and even picks up on phrases like “time to go to bed”—he’s smart like that! Like many rescues, he’s still working on a few things. He can be a bit of a food thief if snacks are left within reach and is working on his manners when on a leash when meeting new dog friends. However, with consistency and setting clear expectations, he’s happy to play and gets along well with confident, dog-savvy companions. With time, he will make a great dog sibling (like in his current foster home) Little Boy would do best in a secure home (he can be a bit of a Houdini!) so a home without a yard or if you have a yard, minimum 5ft fence. He may try to slip past you at the door and is quite skilled at wiggling out of a harness, so a slip lead setup and vigilance during transitions will be key. In return, he promises loyalty, entertainment, and lots of love. Apply to meet Little boy at https://www.muttsinneed.org/adoption-application.htmlSeptember 12, 2025, 11:57 am

Rat Terrier Chihuahua

Female, Adult

Anaheim, CA

Details

Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

I rescued Wednesday from the San Bernardino shelter in October, and she has blossomed into the sweetest little shadow. She is a 9lb, 3-5 year old cuddle bug who believes blankets are life and loves playing fetch with her stuffed animals. She is a loving companion who knows basic tricks, walks beautifully on a leash, and absolutely lives for attention. If you want a dog who looks at you like you're the sun, this is her. Wednesday has a very high prey drive when it comes to cats. She fixates on my resident cat constantly, and despite our best efforts, she simply cannot share a home with felines. She needs a home where she doesn't have to worry about hunting the kitty. Her ideal match: - Strictly a feline-free zone. - She hasn't been around kids, but a calm home would likely suit her best. - She is about 90% potty-trained to go in the backyard. - Spayed, chipped, and all shots up to date.

Story

Hiya - I am Ollie and it may sound a bit conceited, but everyone loves me. Really! Just look at my cute little face! I look like a mini cattle dog and was found as a stray - no one came to claim me. I am around 9 yrs old, weigh 18 pounds and am just a good boy: good on the leash, good with other dogs. I can't be neutered due to medical reasons, but I am good with potty rules ( I will let you know when I need to go by walking to the door). I really want a forever home. If you choose me, I promise I will love you forever. I was rescued in Palmdale and am currently in Orange County.January 5, 2026, 5:34 pm

Meet Bruno Wendelle — Your New Best Friend! Bruno is a sweet, scruffy 4yearold Terrier mix weighing just 12 pounds—small enough for cozy cuddles, but sturdy enough for all your adventures. He’s neutered, microchipped, and fully up to date on vaccines, so he’s all set to settle into his forever home. Bruno’s journey hasn’t been easy. His mom adored him deeply, but after losing her job and becoming homeless, she made the heartbreaking decision to ensure her pups found safe, loving homes. Bruno and his brother Poppa were rescued by LOLR—Poppa has already found his family, and now it’s Bruno’s turn. Bruno is a gentle, softspirited little guy. He may be shy at first, but once he feels safe, he melts right into you. He’s a total lovebug who thrives on affection and quiet companionship. Calm and laidback, he still has a playful side and is discovering just how fun toys can be. Great with dogs Polite and respectful with cats Gentle and friendly with kids He’d be happy as an only dog soaking up all your love, or with a confident canine sibling to help boost his confidence. He walks well on a leash (with a little pulling!) and enjoys exploring the world at his own pace. Bruno is the perfect blend of snuggly, sweet, and soulful—just waiting for someone patient and loving to show him how wonderful life can be. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will repay your kindness with unconditional love, Bruno might be your guy. Ready to meet him?

Story

Everyone welcome Ambrose!! Ambrose is a male, 16-week-old (DOB 6/8/25) Terrier/Chihuahua/Yorkie/Pug (?) mix who is one of Momma Rosalie’s puppies. He’s full of puppy energy and affection, always ready to romp and cuddle. All the puppies are playful, loving and enjoy toys. Every puppy is delightful and does all things normal puppies do. They all get along well with other dogs and all of them will be great family pets. All puppies require consistent socialization and training as they develop and Ambrose is no exception. A home with another well-rounded dog would definitely be beneficial. He has been vaccinated, dewormed and microchipped. He will be neutered when age appropriate so a Neuter deposit may be required. If interested in meeting or adopting Abmrose, please go to www.LOLR.org and fill out an adoption application. ##2425535##
