Story

Meet Buddy! A spirited two-year-old Rhodesian Ridgeback/Carolina Dog mix currently living in Indio, CA, whose essence is a radiant blend of affection and golden sunshine wrapped in well-mannered joy. Buddy is the kind of companion who seems straight out of a feel-good movie—loyal, playful, and always ready to bring a smile to your face! With a naturally calm and friendly disposition, he’s the perfect balance of charm and discipline. He may not have had formal obedience training, but you’d never guess it with the way he proudly follows commands like "sit," "stay," "fetch," and even "go to your bed." His sharp mind and eagerness to please make him a dream for anyone looking for a well-mannered buddy—yes, pun intended! At about 65-70 pounds of affectionate energy, Buddy is large-sized with a heart that’s anything but. He gets along famously with children, other dogs, and even cats! While he could adapt to different home environments, Buddy would thrive in a home with kids and another friendly dog to play with. He’s the kind of dog who will greet strangers with a friendly wag and a sparkle in his eye, then gently curl up beside you for a cozy nap after a stroll around the neighborhood. This golden boy loves his walks (preferably when it’s not too hot) and can never resist a good game with his favorite toys—ropes and bouncy balls being at the top of the list. He handles alone time like a champ, but when you return, get ready for the happiest reunion dance you’ve ever seen! One of his cutest quirks? Buddy loves to watch TV—yes, really! Whether it's an animal show or a lively cartoon, he’ll sit by your side like the best binge-watching pal ever. Fully house-trained, neutered, vaccinated, and in great health, Buddy is all set to bring joy to a new loving home that has time, affection, and the stability to truly cherish him. He doesn’t ask for much—just love, companionship, and a comfy spot on the couch (preferably near the TV!). Ready to meet the sweet soul who might just be your new best friend? Contact adopt@joyfulpets.com to learn more about bringing Buddy home—could he be the golden thread your family’s been missing?

Meet our sweet, beautiful girl Arya! She is approximately 7 years old and 68 lbs of pure love! Arya is super sweet, very affectionate, mellow, smart, and funny. She is the goodest girl who will do anything for a yummy treat! She absolutely loves her belly rubs and can often be found on her back, legs stretched out, waiting for her pets! She needs a little bit of time to warm up to a new environment or person, but once she gets comfortable, she will shower you with so much affection every day, everywhere. Arya was rescued from the Carson Animal Shelter (LA county kill shelter) where she was put on the euthanasia list after 3 months at the shelter. She has been in a foster home since leaving the shelter in late December. Here’s how to describe this sweet pea: - Walks great on leash (loves going on walks) - Non-reactive to other dogs on walks - Easy to train as she’s super food motivated (food will make her do anything ?) - Smart and picks up new tricks/toys quickly - Crate and house trained - Loves to spend time with her human. She’ll be happy just sitting next to you - Very good in the car - Very good with brushing teeth, cleaning ears, shower - Loves belly rubs and pets - Loves squeaky toys - Good with other calm large dogs - She takes a daily anti-inflammatory for her minor arthritis but has no problem going on walks and living a happy life! :) As Arya needs a little bit of time to warm up, an adults-only home is recommended. Adopt our bundle of joy! Arya had a very tough life so far and is so ready to embrace her forever family. Apply to adopt Arya on pacificpupsrescue.com!

Story

Looking for an outgoing pup companion with a mellow vibe, very affectionate and the sweetest smile? My name is Chumi, and I’m your girl! I have medium energy level and love exploring outdoors with lots of walks, even light runs and sunbathing. I am excellent in social settings because I have a laid-back attitude, walk well on leash, and enjoy meeting new people, of all ages, and friendly dogs. I am housebroken, perfectly behaved at home where my favorite spot will be cuddling next to you where I can cover you in kisses and you rub my belly! I have had obedience training and even done some agility, so am attentive to directions. I was a stray until I got injured when a car hit me. A woman took me in to help me recover from minor hip injury but after 5 years my person is now dealing with health issues of her own and can no longer provide the life she believes I deserve. She chose my happiness over her own, and hopes I have the chance to find good people to give me a loving home where I will be adored. I am seeking a family who enjoys a regular routine that includes lots of time outside. I would do well as the recipient of all your attention, or with another dog with a similar temperament. I know I am a mature girl but am a gem who has so much to give you! I know we will create wonderful memories together [Chumi is 8 years old and weighs 60 lbs.] If you'd like to meet Chumi, please contact Teresa Mendoza: (323) 683-7215 or teresamend@yahoo.com Note: This is a courtesy posting for our fellow rescuer, which means that even though this animal does not belong to our group, we are here to help those who need to find a home for their animals.

Story

Meet Beanie! A tender-hearted eight-year-old Black Mouth Cur currently living in Seattle, WA, whose soft brown coat with black and white accents wraps around a loyal spirit and a big, loving heart. Beanie is a big girl with an even bigger heart—she tips the scales around 65 pounds, but what she truly carries most is her love for people. Whether it’s a quiet evening snuggled up beside her human or a quick tug-of-war session (her absolute favorite game!), Beanie thrives on closeness and affection. She’s got a gentle, soulful presence that makes you feel like she’s listening to every word you say, and her eyes light up at the sight of her favorite people or a crunchy snack! Beanie is house-trained, crate-trained, and quite content being left alone while her person is out and about. She enjoys a steady, calm routine—just one daily 30-minute walk, a couple of bathroom breaks, and she’s set. While she knows a few basics like “sit,” “wait,” “off,” and “down,” what she’s really mastered is the art of being your quiet, comforting shadow. Beanie’s story includes a challenging chapter that shaped her current needs. She was raised alongside another female dog of the same breed, and for many years they got along just fine. But two years ago, the pair had a fight and after that the dogs had to be kept separated. Multiple professional reintroduction attempts were made without success, and the stress of the situation began to wear on Beanie. As her anxiety grew, she had a warning nip with a child during a particularly tense moment, though she continued to live peacefully with children before and after. This moment, however, was a clear sign that Beanie needed a different environment—one where she could truly relax. Since transitioning to her current foster home, Beanie has blossomed! She’s shown herself to be incredibly sweet, gentle, and eager to bond with people. That said, Beanie is not compatible with other animals and will need to be the only pet in her new home. She is reactive to other dogs and will growl or lunge when she sees them, but she’s highly food-motivated and responds well to redirection. Walks during quieter hours have helped tremendously in keeping her calm and focused. Beanie is looking for a new peaceful, loving home with a committed guardian who can give her the attention and consistency she needs. Could you be the one to share your life—and your tug rope—with Beanie? To learn more, please contact adopt@joyfulpets.com!

Charli

Catahoula Leopard Dog

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Story

Meet Charli! A radiant one-and-a-half-year-old Catahoula Leopard Dog mix currently in San Rafael, CA, whose spirit is as vibrant and speckled as her stunning blue leopard coat. With her bright eyes and endlessly wagging tail, Charli is a dazzling combination of brains, beauty, and boundless heart! Charli is the kind of pup who listens closely, literally cocking her head when you speak, as if she's trying to learn every word. She already knows commands like sit, wait, paw, come, lay down, and even a solid “no.” This clever girl thrives on engagement and loves being part of daily life. Whether she's going for a brisk hike, a playful romp with another dog, or a tug-of-war showdown with her favorite rope toy, Charli is always eager for fun and connection. She’s house-trained, crate-trained, microchipped, fully vaccinated, and spayed, ready to move in and start her next adventure! Her days currently begin with breakfast at sunrise and a good walk to stretch those strong legs and curious nose. While she's content in her crate at night or for short absences, Charli truly shines when she has companionship, especially the kind that includes belly rubs, puzzle toys, and a furry friend to play chase with in a fenced yard. Though she may come across as vocal when spotting other dogs on walks, her wagging tail and playful posture say, “Let’s be friends!” With proper introductions, she’s shown she enjoys doggie pals and would love to share her new home with a canine buddy who matches her energy and friendliness. She's also wonderful with older kids (10+), and her gentle, affectionate nature makes her a delightful cuddle buddy after a day full of activity. Charli is looking for a family who shares her love of the outdoors, her need for daily mental and physical stimulation, and her desire to be a true companion. Could your pack be the one she's been waiting for? If you're ready to meet this affectionate adventurer, reach out to adopt@joyfulpets.com! Charli’s heart is open, who will she share it with next?

Story

Meet Meep! A spirited one-and-a-half-year-old Catahoula Leopard Dog currently in Oakland, CA, whose essence is a whirlwind of playful charm wrapped in a stunning merle coat and powered by puppy-sized curiosity. Meep is a big-hearted 90 pound pup with a big future! He’s the kind of companion who makes every day feel like recess, with boundless energy, a contagious grin, and a serious love for belly rubs. Meep lives for zooming around the yard, soaking up attention, and gleefully interacting with people and pups who appreciate his enthusiastic approach to life. This sweet boy is both crate trained and house-trained, making him a solid addition to a home that can offer him structure, consistency, and lots of active time. He’s mastered “sit” like a pro, especially when there’s a treat or belly scratch involved, and he’s incredibly tuned in to his humans, always eager to learn and please! While Meep is still working on leash manners (a little leash reactivity pops up now and then), with positive reinforcement and regular walks, he’s well on his way to being a stellar walking buddy. Meep gets along especially well with small dogs and adores young children, showing a gentle and goofy side that melts hearts. With larger dogs, he can be a bit much, especially if they’re not into his puppy playstyle, so a home where he's the only large do (or with tolerant, playful companions) would be a great fit. He would thrive in a space with a fenced yard where he can stretch those long legs and burn off some energy between cuddle sessions. Playful, affectionate, and endlessly trainable, Meep is looking for a guardian who understands the joy (and the challenge) of raising a big, bouncy pup. He needs someone ready to guide him with kindness, keep him engaged, and enjoy the ride of watching him grow into the loyal, loving dog he’s meant to be. Are you ready to meet the happy whirlwind that is Meep and help him write his next great adventure? Contact adopt@joyfulpets.com today!
