Story
She’s a very good dog. I just work too much for her needs. She is very attached to my hip and loves to watching me and following me everywhere. She loves car rides, she loves any attention you can spare. She is a very nervous and shy/fearful dog. She has never attacked or bit anybody. She makes herself small and hides away when she’s scared. She flinches when you move too quick, she doesn’t like loud noises. She has had a hard life and she needs someone who can help her and unfortunately I am not the person for her and it breaks my heart. She needs patience, a two person household or someone who works from home. She is the best girl, who deserves the world.

Story
I’m a 5-year-old Rottweiler, about 75 lbs, and my story is a tough one. My owner left me at a boarding kennel and never came back. It’s been almost 3 years now that I’ve been waiting behind these same walls, hoping someone would give me a second chance. Despite everything, I’m still a sweet soul who just wants love, kindness, and a home to call my own. I have found a rescue (The Heroic Tail) that will help me. They will do my adoption and provide free training if needed. They just want to see me out of the kennels and in a loving home. If you would like to meet me please apply on the website or message them with questions about me.October 5, 2025, 7:51 pm

Rottweiler

Male, Adult
San Ysidro, CA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Amigo is approximately 5 years, around 40 pounds, neutered, fully vaccinated & microchipped Rotti mix breed. He is crate trained but needs patience and practice with potty & leash training~ soon he will be a pro of all three!! He is affectionate, playful but can be a bit nervous when first met with unexpected changes. Amigo gets along well with most dogs (but also a little dominant so we suggest he be paired with a female companion), adults and older children alike. Given his adaptability, he should be able to learn your family’s routine rather quickly and become part of the gang in no time!!! Amigo was rescued from the streets of Tecate very neglected, malnourished, suffering with TVT and a broken paw due to an old injury. Fortunately he is now flourishing under the loving care of a foster. His TVT was treated and while he still limps; he is pain free (Feb 2024) Amigo has a lot of love to give and longs for a family who can provide him patience, affection and attention he craves. He deserves a warm and loving home where he can feel cherished as a member of the family!!!

Story
Meet Shiba – A Cuddly Bug! Shiba is a 5-year-old Rottweiler with a striking black and brown coat and a heart full of love.  This 70-pound bundle of affection brings warmth and joy wherever she goes. Despite her strong and confident appearance, Shiba is a gentle, snuggly companion who adores curling up on the couch, soaking in pets, and sharing her soft, comforting presence. Shiba’s playful spirit shines through.  She loves squeaker toys, playing fetch, and basking in the sun.  She’s smart as a whip, already knowing tricks like roll-over, sit, paw, and down, and she loves showing off her skills to her favorite humans. Shiba thrives as the main attraction in her home, soaking up all the love and attention she can get.  She could be a wonderful companion for older children who understand her gentle, affectionate nature. 💛 Shiba is the ultimate snuggle buddy, loyal, playful, and full of personality.  She’s ready to find a loving family that adores her, and she won’t be shy about showing you exactly how much she loves you! A quote from Staff about Shiba: "Shiba is the hammiest ham of all hams! She loves a good snuggle (and will let you know that she does, in fact, want more tummy pets with a gentle paw), a squeaker toy, playing fetch and sunbathing in the yard. She knows all of the tricks (roll-over, sit, paw and down)". About Me: Estimated DOB 04/04/2020, 5 years and 8 months old Female, Rottweiler, 70 lbs fully grown Spayed, Vaccinated, up to date on flea and heartworm prevention Adoption Fee $150 Adoption Application – Dog Adoption Application – https://pawsofcoronado.org/shiba/
