Story
How this pet arrived: Kayden was brought in by our Humane Law Enforcement team on October 11, 2025. Why this pet is the one for you: Meet Kayden! This lovely senior gal has plenty of love to give and is looking for a calm place to spend her golden years. We're still getting to know her, but one thing is clear - Kayden has a gentle spirit and just needs a little time to feel comfortable with new people and situations. She arrived underweight, and we're helping her get back on track! Kayden can be particular about how she's handled, so a patient family with children 10 and older would be ideal. We're not yet sure how she feels about other dogs, cats, or whether she's potty trained. What we do know is that Kayden will thrive in a quiet, low-traffic home where her world can stay small as she decompresses at her own pace. She's a sweet soul who deserves comfort, kindness, and a soft spot to land. Think you could be her perfect match? Bring a leash and collar and come meet Kayden today! At SDHS:Kayden has been vaccinated, microchipped and spayed. She is now ready for her new home! Primary Color: Blonde Secondary Color: Yellow Weight: 38 Age: 10yrs 6mths 0wks

Story
DOB: August 2018Weight: 27 lbsDisposition: Confident, Inquisitive, PlayfulEthel was rescued on 5th August 2020 during a slaughterhouse closure together with another 14 dogs conducted by FOUR PAWS in Kampong Thom, Cambodia. After rescue she was housed at Animal Rescue Cambodia in Phnom Penh until she flew stateside at the beginning of December 2020 when she joined us at The Barking Lot.Ethel has the cutest little ears there ever was and their a dead giveaway for her Shar Pei roots! This lovely girl used to be timid around other dogs, especially at dinner time. Like many of our rescues who have been through traumatic experiences, she gets defensive about her food. The rest of the time, Ethel can be coy, but she is learning to trust again and is really relaxed with her caretakers. Ethel has a lovely, inquisitive nature and is building trust with new people daily. She enjoys handling and cuddles from people she trusts and is treat motivated. If you're interested in meeting Ethel, please visit our website and fill out an adoption application: www.thebarkinglot.net/adoptTo initiate the adoption process for this dog, please complete our online application by clicking below. Your adoption coordinator will respod to you via email once they receive your application: www.thebarkinglot.net/adopt

Story
How this pet arrived: This pet was brought in by our Humane Law Enforcement team. Why this pet is the one for you:Greetings Hoomans! My name is Natasha and I am searching for my forever family! I have been in a wonderful Foster Home for over 5 months! My Foster Mom keeps telling me to be patient and stay hopeful because there is some family out there looking for a gal like me! So I'm trying really hard to be patient. I am a beautiful and very sweet 9 year old with a calm but also playful attitude about life.I would love to have a large, fenced-in yard where I can do zoomies and chase squirrels and lizards. I really don't know what I'd do with them if I caught them, but the chase sure is fun! I can also be chill and relax with you in the house or the yard.I am good in the house and haven't had any accidents. I sleep a lot after my zoomies and chasing critters but I am quiet all night.I think I would be a good girl with another pup to play with. I do have a Foster brother and we play a lot! Oh, his name is Jumbo! My Foster Mom doesn't know if I would be cat friendly or not. I also haven't been introduced to kids, as far as she knows. I think I'd love having, maybe someone over 10, to play with as long as they can respect me.My Foster Mom has been working a lot on leash training but I might need more of that.I also stress out on car rides but if we take short trips a few times I think I'd probably enjoy the after awhile. Well, it's nap time for me so I must say "goodbye" for now. Thank you for considering me as a new member of your family!Would like to adopt me?Love, Natasha At SDHS:This pet has been vaccinated, microchipped and spayed/neutered. This pet is now ready for their new home! Primary Color: White Secondary Color: Tan Weight: 54 Age: 9yrs 10mths 0wks

How this pet arrived: Guerro was brought in by Humane Law Enforcement on November 13, 2025. Why this pet is the one for you:Meet Guerro, a handsome pup who's come a long way since arriving underweight - and he's already feeling much better! This handsome, energetic guy has a big personality and an even bigger zest for life. Guerro is smart and playful but can have a hard time keeping all that enthusiasm in check, so he's looking for a family ready to help him channel his energy through training, exercise, and plenty of mental enrichment. He can be a bit reactive to other dogs at first but often makes friends once he gets to know them. While he's done well with kids in the past, his jumpy, mouthy play style means he's looking for a home without children under 8. If you're looking for a fun, loyal, and lively companion who's always up for an adventure, Guerro might just be your guy! At SDHS:Guerro has been vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. Guerro is now ready for his new home!Excitable Dog: This pet requires a virtual behavior consult, please watch THIS video to learn more about them.
