Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Dolly was rescued from the streets in Baja MX in August 2026. She has the most beautiful eyes!!! She was super skinny but has gained a fair amount and is now healthy. She was also very scared but is now loving. We have spayed her, checked her for tick borne illness, and given her vaccinations. She is estimated to be just under a year old. She will grow a little more to be a size large. (We know this because of the size of her paws in relation to her body.) She gets along with other dogs, walks ok on leash and is not aggressive. We see these breeds in her: Rhodesian Ridgeback, Mountain Cur, Anatolian and/or Malinois Shepherd. Dolly will make a wonderful companion to someone who handles large dogs well and where she can have the comforts of being inside a home and also have an outdoor area and regular walks.

*Courtesy Post* Currently in North Park. Gemma was abandoned and picked up. She is spayed. We believe she is about 1.5-year-old. She is good with dogs and people. I have not seen her around cats or kids but she is such a calm, sweet girl that I don’t predict any problems. She will eat anything in front of her and loves to chew on toys and lounge on laps. She is about 35 pounds. If interested in meeting this sweet girl please message or call Sarah at (925)337-3584 or email at sfletcher217@gmail.comMarch 8, 2026, 8:45 pm

Rhodesian Ridgeback Shar Pei

Female, Adult
San Diego, CA
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, Needs special attention, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Charlie is a 6 year old mix between a Rhodesian Ridgeback, Shar-Pei and Pit, she loves to be in the company of people, she love attention and to be pet. She is extremely smart is treat motivated, meaning she can be trained very easily. She sleeps most of the day on her bed, but loves walks around the neighborhood, playing with her squeeker toys, hikes, the beach and playing fetch at the park. Charlie would thrive with an active owner who loves the outdoors and car rides. She also loves playing with other dogs. Charlie stays up-to-date with her veterinary checkups and vaccinations, but also suffers from skin allergy reactions to certain foods. As a result she takes a pill every morning to help counter-act the side effects of her allergies, if left untreated for even a day she will develop itchy bumps on her skin and ear infections. She also can be uneasy around younger children (5-12 yo) as she seems to have a slight distrust towards them.

Story
Hi, I`m the kind of pup who`s always ready for my next adventure! Whether we`re heading out for a run, exploring a new trail, or just playing in the yard, I`m happiest when I`m on the move with my favorite people. I`ve got lots of energy and an even bigger smile to match! When it`s time to slow down, don`t forget the snacks... I absolutely love treats and never turn down a tasty reward. They make learning new things even more fun! I`m a social butterfly who enjoys meeting new people and other dogs. I have friendly manners and love making new friends wherever I go. Whether it`s a walk through the neighborhood, a playgroup, or a trip to the park, I`m always excited to join in on the fun. If you`re looking for a happy, outgoing companion who`s equal parts adventure buddy and cuddle-worthy sweetheart, I just might be the perfect match. I can`t wait to meet you and start making memories together!

Story
Nessy is a sweet, easygoing girl who loves being close to her people. She has a calm routine during the day—enjoying naps while her foster parents work—then comes alive in the evening for walks, playtime, and training. Nessy enjoys daily strolls (especially when she can stop and sniff!), relaxing at the park, and chewing on her favorite bully sticks or frozen lick treats.She’s house-trained, quiet, and well-mannered in the home. Nessy walks nicely on leash, knows cues like sit, down, touch, place, kennel, wait, and come, and is currently working on learning some fun new tricks. More than anything, Nessy’s favorite place is right near her people, soaking up love and the occasional good scratch. If you`d like to meet her please submit an adoption application and email: ymota@chulavistaca.gov
