Story
Charlie is a super sweet, well mannered, potty trained dog. DOB 10-21-23. He has allergies. I’ve tried a variety of foods to no avail. I rescued another dog 60 miles from me and that dog was housed with Charlie. I couldn’t leave him behind. I didn’t notice until I got him home & reviewed paperwork he was listed with allergies. The problem is his skin gets so hot he stinks and I’m super sensitive to smell to the point of nausea and vomiting. I’m sure someone with the means can get him vet help with this and resolve his issues but I can’t. He’s very energetic, I have a large property so he runs quite a bit and loves chasing squirrels. He learns very quickly and minds. When he’s done for the day he’s done and sleeps well. He loves to be loved but has an aversion to hands being close to his face. He readily accepts a leash and loves to go for auto rides too. He comes when called. He’s excellent with the other dog. He loves to play with toys. He will go after food. He’s great with my bird.

She’s fiercely loyal and will quickly become your little shadow, following you around with curious eyes and a wagging tail. Evie’s Perfect Home: • An active family who can keep up with her energetic spirit. • A home where she can be the center of attention and snuggle as much as her heart desires. • Someone who appreciates a vocal, playful pup who isn’t shy to express herself.

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 She is a pocket-sized 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.

These pups are in San Bernardino, California too!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. I know you're currently saying to yourself, 'this does not look like a Jack Russell mix'! Trust me when I tell you that she is! She just looks more like the boxer in her...like a tiny boxer! Thelma is really a sweet girl once she gets to know you. Earning her trust has been such a satisfying experience and so worth any time that it has taken. She is 8 years old and weighs around 18 pounds. She is a stocky little firecracker, which is one of her best traits but can also get her into trouble with some pups. She can be a bit of a bully to other females so she would do best with a male pup in the home or as an only dog to a human who is home much of the time. She arrived with her sister, Louise, and we thought they were bonded. But now that some time has passed, we realize that though they love each other, they do not rely on each other. Thelma is a quick learner and has done well with initial leash training. She will need to be adopted in the So Cal area and must have a secure backyard. If you are interested in adopting Thelma, please apply here . Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.September 7, 2025, 7:31 pm
