Meet Luka! This sweet one-year-old, 35 lb. Shar Pei/Terrier mix is looking for his forever home—and he just might be the perfect addition to your family. Luka is potty trained, walks well on leash, and loves nothing more than a good play session with toys or his doggy friends. He’s also a champion eater who never leaves a crumb behind! Luka is friendly with both dogs and cats, and he's been around pups of all sizes. While he can be a little shy at first, it only takes a few minutes for his playful, affectionate personality to shine. He enjoys walks, cuddles, and learning new things—he’s a smart boy who picks up commands quickly and is starting to settle down as he outgrows his puppy energy. His ideal home includes a yard and a playful companion (human or canine!) who’ll keep him active and engaged. Could Luka be the one you’ve been waiting for? Apply today and find out!

Fountain Valley, CA
Size

Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
He lived with my mom’s boyfriend pretty much as his dog’s dog, would follow him around and just be with him until he passed away. Now he’s just left alone in his son’s room or outside. He doesn’t listen very well, needs proper training and patience. He can be motivated by food. He is very sweet and kind to people, loves to lay on your lap as he is a miniature. He doesn’t know how to play with dog toys really, loves to go on walks though and is super easy to walk since he’s so small. He won’t bark at other dogs or people, only barks when he wants to be fed or let out but not excessively. He is very nice with my sisters, never has bitten anyone before, super submissive to other dogs. But he cannot be with cats at all, he will try to go after them. I’m not sure the last time he’s been to the vet, he is microchipped, he needs a collar as he’s pretty much just in his harness here. Needs help with his skin by just maintaining hygiene. Please reach out if you have any questions!

Muffin

Bulldog

Female, 5 yrs 2 mos
Santa Ana, CA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Muffin is a 5-year-old, house-trained English Bulldog who’s calm, independent, and sweet once she trusts you. She loves walks, sits politely for treats, and prefers a quiet home where affection isn’t rushed. Apartment or house is fine (stairs too!). If you value peaceful company, she might be your perfect match. ————— When Muffin’s person became seriously ill with cancer, she was surrendered to a local shelter — but her owner couldn’t bear the thought of her waiting there too long. They called us and asked if we could take her in, hoping we could find her the perfect forever home. And now, that’s exactly what we’re here to do. At five years old, Muffin is everything you love about bulldogs — soulful, steady, and full of quiet charm — but she definitely has her own rhythm. Think bulldog with cat energy: tidy, observant, and happy to do her own thing until she decides you’ve earned her affection. She’s a little timid at first, but once she trusts you, she’ll wander over, lean gently into your hand, and sit politely for a treat like it’s your shared secret. Muffin has a soft gray stripe down her back — her “lucky streak” — and a unique nose that gives her face extra character. Our veterinarian has confirmed she has no cleft palate or health issues, just her one-of-a-kind good looks. She’s spayed, vaccinated, and house-trained. Muffin enjoys walks, simple routines, and peaceful surroundings. She doesn’t like to roughhouse or be carried, preferring calm, respectful affection instead. She’d do best as the only dog in the home, though she’s polite around others on walks. Muffin hasn’t met cats yet, and children should be 10 or older — she thrives on gentle energy and predictability. Muffin is currently living safely in our kennels, cared for by people who adore her — but she’s ready for something more personal. She’s ready for a home. Whether that’s an adoptive family or a foster home willing to give her a quiet place to settle, Muffin will reward your kindness with companionship, patience, and the kind of loyalty that can only come from a dog who’s learned how to trust again. If you’ve been looking for a calm, easy companion who simply wants a peaceful life by your side, Muffin might just be your girl.
