Story
Sassy and Spunky Senior...That's our Coco! This little lady is Coco and she is a 12 year old, 9lb, Toy Poodle. She came to us when her owner passed away and the adult children did not want her. In fact, before the other children could reach out to rescues, the son took Coco to the shelter and dumped her. The daughter pulled her out, contacted us, and asked if we could take her in. We said yes! She was in terrible condition when we got her. She had double ear infections, was matted, and needed a dental. We had everything taken care of and would love for her to be in a loving home where she can enjoy her golden years! Coco has the typical, small breed medical issues. She has a slight trachea issue, small heart murmur (no meds needed at this time), and is starting to have slight eye sight impairment We did have a full dental done on her along with an echocardiogram. Please note that she cannot go on walks at all. She gets too stirred up and will start coughing and with her trachea, a walk will cause a coughing fit. Don't let this deter you because she is very happy just being at home with you. The perfect home for her would be with someone "early" retired who is home most of the day and does not care about taking a dog on a walk. She does need a yard so she can go potty. We also need an adult only home with someone who understands that with her sight issues and just being an older dog, she needs to be picked up slowly otherwise she gets startled. Coco is not needy, but she does love to hang out on the couch and not in a dog bed. She does need and require a dog ramp for the couch and bed where she will definitely want to be at night with you. Coco doesn't really need another dog in the home, but if there is, it should be a calm, older dog. She doesn't do well with young, high energy dogs. A patient, kind, and loving home is exactly what this sweet senior needs. Coco is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. Please note that we only adopt in the Greater LA areas as an in person meet/greet, home check, and trial period are required. Please contact us at gina@theforgottendog.org or 310-990-2020

Story
Meet Auggie – The Sweetest Shih Tzu with a Freckled Nose! Oh my gosh…is Auggie not the cutest dog ever? This 2-year-old, 17-pound Shih Tzu has the sweetest freckled nose and a personality to match! Auggie’s journey to us wasn’t easy — he was surrendered by owners who kept him outside most of the time, where he would often escape the yard. Thanks to a kind neighbor, Auggie was rescued, groomed (he was very matted!), checked by the vet, and placed into a loving foster home where he’s thriving. Auggie is a perfect mix of fun and calm. He adores everyone he meets, loves spending time outside, and would thrive in a home with a safe yard where he can hang out with you while you garden or relax on the patio. He also gets along wonderfully with playful dogs, so a furry companion would be ideal for him. Auggie is happiest when he has company and isn’t left alone for long stretches — he’s a true social sweetheart who loves being part of the action. This adorable boy is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped — and he’s ready to find his forever family where he can be spoiled with love and attention. Trust us, once you meet Auggie, you’ll fall in love instantly! 📧 Contact: gina@theforgottendog.org 📞 Phone: 310‑990‑2020 Note: We only adopt in Southern California as we require an in-person meet & greet, home check, and trial period.

Story
This adorable little lady is Josie who is a 4/5 year old, 5lb, female, Poodle/Chihuahua mix. She came to us from a local shelter that reached out to see if we could help. Her owner surrendered her in terrible condition where she was covered in fleas, had a double ear infection, matted, had tapeworms, and not spayed. It took a few weeks to get her feeling better and once she did her full personality came out! Josie is playful, spunky, and full of fun energy! We definitely want her in a home with another young dog that will play like she plays...like a little tomboy! She absolutely loves nothing more than to roughhouse with another fun dog! It's her favorite thing! An adult only home with owners that are not gone long hours during the day would be ideal! A home with a yard is not necessary, but she does love to go out and sunbathe and play outside with her friends. Josie will come to you a little shy, but give her the time she needs and this little love will open up in no time! Josie is spayed, vaccinated, and is microchipped. We only adopt in So California as an in person meet/greet, home check, and trial period are required. Please contact us at: gina@theforgottendog.org or 310-990-2020
