NAME:  Figaro BREED:  Poodle/Shih Tzu mix mix SEX:  Male COLOR:  white/gray AGE:  4 yr as of Sept 2026 WEIGHT:  14 lbs LOCATED IN:  Arcadia SOME COOL INFORMATION ABOUT ME: Meet Figaro!  Figaro is approximately 4 years old, weighs 14 pounds, and appears to be a Poodle mix, possibly with Shih Tzu thrown into the family tree. He’s also a brand-new arrival, and Figaro would like everyone to know that he already has opinions.  This funny little guy likes to talk, and he isn’t shy about adding his own commentary to whatever is happening around him. We’re still learning his full vocabulary, but something tells us life with Figaro is not going to be quiet or boring. He’s good with other dogs and has already revealed one very important piece of information about himself: Figaro LOVES treats.  If negotiations are ever required, we know exactly where to begin. Figaro came to us needing some grooming, and his makeover is still a work in progress. Underneath all that hair is a handsome little guy slowly emerging, one snip at a time.  Because he’s new to Canine Castaways, we’re still getting to know him. There’s plenty left to discover about his personality, habits, and what kind of home will suit him best. But so far? He’s funny. He’s chatty. He likes dogs. He loves snacks. And apparently, he has a lot to say about all of it.  Stay tuned. We have a feeling Figaro is just getting started.    If you are interested in adopting please complete our Adoption Application by copying and pasting the following link into your web browser: http://www.caninecastaways.org/adoption-application For a full list of dogs we currently have for adoption use this link:  https://www.caninecastaways.org/adoptable-dogs MEDICAL INFO: The following has been or will be done for this dog... - Basic Exam by Veterinarian - Spayed or Neutered - Heartworm Tested - Placed on heartworm preventive - Basic Bloodwork - Urinalysis - Microchipped - Intestinal Parasite Exam and medication - Vaccinations - Placed on Flea preventive ADOPTION DONATION: $300 This adoption donation helps to cover the vet expenses for this dog including heartworm preventive which is dispensed at the initial vet visit and then goes with the dog at adoption.

NAME:  Indie BREED:  Chihuahua/Papillon mix SEX:  Female COLOR:  Black AGE:   1 1/2 yrs as of Oct 2026 WEIGHT:   13.8 lbs  LOCATED IN:  Arcadia SOME COOL INFORMATION ABOUT ME: Meet Indie!  Indie is a 1 1/2-year-old, 13.8-pound little girl who appears to be a long-haired Chihuahua mix with possibly some Papillon in there, although we’re not entirely sure what other breeds might be hiding in that adorable family tree! Indie may be a little shy when she first meets someone, but don’t let that fool you. It doesn’t take her long to warm up, and once she does, she’s more than happy to make herself comfortable in your lap.  She’s also a playful little girl who gets along well with other dogs. And when Indie decides it’s time to move, you’d better pay attention because this girl is FAST!  Because Indie is a brand-new arrival at Canine Castaways, we’re still getting to know her. We’re discovering her personality, learning her favorite things, and figuring out what kind of forever home will make her happiest. So far, we know she’s sweet, playful, a little cautious at first, and quick to make friends once she feels comfortable.    If you are interested in adopting please complete our Adoption Application by copying and pasting the following link into your web browser: http://www.caninecastaways.org/adoption-application For a full list of dogs we currently have for adoption use this link:  https://www.caninecastaways.org/adoptable-dogs MEDICAL INFO: The following has been or will be done for this dog... - Basic Exam by Veterinarian - Spayed or Neutered - Heartworm Tested - Placed on heartworm preventive - Basic Bloodwork - Urinalysis - Microchipped - Intestinal Parasite Exam and medication - Vaccinations - Placed on Flea preventive ADOPTION DONATION: $300 This adoption donation helps to cover the vet expenses for this dog including heartworm preventive which is dispensed at the initial vet visit and then goes with the dog at adoption.
