Story
Mufasa & Simba: A Father and Son Looking for Human Kindness 🐾
Some dogs come into rescue with broken bones. Mufasa and Simba came with broken trust.
Rescued from the streets of South Central, where they were starved and physically abused.This sweet father and son had learned that human hands often brought fear instead of love. In the beginning, they would flinch every time someone reached down to pet them. They expected pain instead of kindness.
Little by little, they realized they were finally safe.
Today, they lean into your touch. They wag their tails. They ask for cuddles. They have learned what it feels like to be loved.
Now they’re waiting for their forever family.
MUFASA (3 years old) the gentle, laid-back dad. His favorite place is by your side or with his head out the car window, letting the wind hit his face. He loves quiet moments, cuddles, treats, and simply being close to the people he trusts.
SIMBA (1 year old) is his goofy, energetic son. He sleeps through car rides but comes alive the second it’s time to play. He loves zoomies, bath time, belly rubs, and making everyone laugh.
Together, they are inseparable.
They love running around together, playing with other dogs, pup cups, and yummy treats! They’re happiest when they’re together, doing the simple things that every dog deserves to enjoy.
Their bond is beautiful. Simba still looks to his dad for comfort, confidence, and reassurance. Mufasa watches over his son the way only a father can.
They have already survived neglect. They have already experienced fear. Now it's time for them to experience a life filled with love from their very own family.
We’re looking for a family willing to open their heart and home to BOTH of them. They don’t need a perfect home they just need people who will continue showing them that love is forever.
If you’ve ever wondered whether adopting could change a life, this is your chance to change two.
We had them examined by our vet, and are in perfect health. They were initially very underweight, but with plenty of nutritious food, they are now a normal weight. They have both been neutered, fully vaccinated and microchipped. If you'd like to meet them and live in the Southern California area, please complete our adoption application found on dexterfoundation.com
Please share their story. Their forever family could be just one share away. ❤️🐾
