Poor innocent, sweet & forgotten about Gapy, was ready to be euthanized in a death camp of a scary shelter in CA. He had zero public interest & zero rescue interest on social media. An email went out for help & this beautiful boy was on that list. Yes, it appears at the age of 3 he was going to die which is absolutely unacceptable. We rescued this beautiful boy & 2 other sweet baby dolls out of that same kill shelter from that very same kill list all at once. That day was 1 very sad & joyous day all at the same time. Gapy who is now looking for his very own forever home who will never give up on him again & love him just as his foster mum & we do. After we got Gapy all his care with his amazing foster mum he will be bought back to WA state from CA where he can’t wait to find his loving forever home. We truly believe that Gapy was originally someone’s dog & they just did not want him anymore from his mannerisms & his behavior of knowing certain things. All this boy wants is to be loved & have a home to call his own. Disturbing to think no one wanted him & he was ready to die. The level of absolute madness here is so deeply sad for many of these beautiful souls out of CA kill shelters. When we got him out of the shelter his nails were so extremely long & his nails were clipped by our vets but will need to be & regularly dremeled to get them to a good place. Gapy at times can have a big personality & knows what he wants. He isn’t the biggest cuddler but enjoys being patted & being loved. He is a independent little man. That being said, Gapy is a good eater, he loves to eat & he is making up for lost time & put on weight instantly in his foster home. Gapy’s new forever home must have a fully fenced secured backyard. He also enjoys sunning himself in the backyard & also sitting on the couch & looking out the window, he really enjoys taking in the sites. But he will also do his own thing. Gapy has been great with his baths because he started having them with us the moment he was rescued so he is used to them. Gapy rides beautifully in the car & enjoys a good journey & still needs continued work walking on his harness & leash. But has done amazing in his foster home. We are looking for a forever home for Gapy where someone is home during the day or he can go with his people wherever possibly he can go with them & there must be another dog in the home for him to thrive. Gapy loves other dogs & needs another dog in the home to play with. This is mandatory for his new home. This boy enjoys going into a crate sometimes so that tells us that someone used to call him to go into a crate. In his foster home he sleeps in the bed with his foster mum or will sleep on the dog bed. Gapy is looking for a forever home who will cherish him & love him as he should be loved & be patient with him. Gapy has been around many breeds of dogs all shapes & sizes & he is currently with other dogs & was fostered in CA with other dogs & does well with them & enjoys their company. It’s mandatory for him to be in a home with a playful dog. Gapy is roughly just over 6 years old & 21 lbs & is perhaps a dachshund & chihuahua mix, (chiweenie), male. He had a dental & polish & we got him neutered. Gapy is, microchipped, heart worm negative, up to date on his shots, including DHLPP, Bordatella, rabies & dewormed. We are currently treating Gapy for a bad skin infection. We have spent far more on Gapy, with all of his medical care getting him well thank his adoption fee comes close to covering with, neuter, paying his shelter fee to get him out of the shelter, shots, flea meds, dewormer, boarding, dental scale & polish etc. Gapy has been around cats since being in the rescue & did well with the cat in his foster home but it’s always up to the new family to be responsible with their animals together. Just because he got along fine with the cat in the foster home doesn’t mean he will get along with all cats. We have not had him around small children so we do not recommend small children & it’s always up to the family to be responsible with their children. We were not there when Gapy was conceived so we do not know who his parents were & it’s always up to the new potential family to look at the pictures & decide what they think his breed is. As with all of our rescues & Gapy’s friends he will need work on potty training & training, so this should be something the new family would be willing to work on & commit to. Please do not submit an application if you are not willing to commit to one of our rescues care for their whole life & that includes if they need training. Please do not email us asking is Gapy potty trained or available, nor do we ship dogs anywhere as we will not respond. We would never say anyone of our rescues are potty trained. Our rescues need homes where the people are understanding of their past & what they have been through & what they will need in their daily lives & not willing to give up on them & if they do need training in their new home will in fact take them to training & not just say they will when applying. Gapy has been through many traumas in his short time on this earth so when applying this needs to be kept in mind & for his care. Please only submit an application if you are truly interested in adopting Gapy & going through our process and have read his listing fully to the end & are wanting to adopt. If you are not responsive to our calls, emails or your references do not respond we will move on & remove your application from our system. You must be willing to go through our screening process which includes your references being checked, a phone interview & a virtual home visit due to covid & followed by a meet and greet & if it’s a good fit, up to our discretion. We will only be accepting applications for Gapy who understands his needs & that meet all the requirements for this spirited little chap. Once we find the right home for each little soul we work fast, within days so the dogs can go to their forever homes in quite a timely manner. We do not hold onto dogs for people as our goal is to save lives & please do not submit an application if you are not ready to adopt. We also cannot respond to every application unfortunately. Gapy has an adoption fee of $750 & is ready for his truly loving forever home & compassion & understanding of what he has been through.

At the age of merely 1 year old, Amalia was going to lose her life in one of the highest kill shelters in CA as no one was coming to save her. Pictures of her & a video was posted on FB of Amalia sitting in the shelter just begging for someone to come save her. It ripped our hearts out & we could not bare to let her lose her beautiful life. She was showing signs of neurological problems per the shelter & weighed a measly 5lbs. She was clearly almost starved to death at 5lbs. We got her out of the shelter & gave her food immediately as she was absolutely famished. She was taken straight to our vets in CA & to say he was shocked that’s an understatement. He was lost for words as we believe he thought she was not going to make it. It was extremely evident that Amalia had spent her whole life in a crate & was malnourished & that was what was causing the issues, growing in a small cage & malnutrition. Then not being able to move around in that crate. Amalia went straight into her loving foster home & the slow process began of getting calories & nutrition into her & not overwhelming her tiny frail underweight body. She started off having several small meals a day which were increased to more small meals even up until just before bed & then she started to flourish & thrive & we seen no signs whatsoever of any neurological issues. Our girl is a fighter & she wanted to live & she is now full of so much love, joy & happiness thanks to her dedicated foster mum. Our beautiful Amalia will now be looking for a home to cherish her. Amalia is being brought back to WA from CA. Amalia looks straight into your soul & your eyes with gratitude & adores being held, cuddled & played with. She has flourished in her foster home. At first she could not stand for long as she had zero energy to hold herself up. We have all of the videos & phots of the progress of Amelia’s recovery back to health & love we will gladly share with her forever home. She now has the zoomies many times a day & is so grateful to her dedicated foster mum for saving her life. She does have that cheeky puppy side of her & if some things are left out she will get into them so that has to be kept in mind with this angel & her foster family has been working with her on her puppy traits. She absolutely adores comfy beds & big comfy blankets because again the reality is, we don’t know if this is something she did get to experience ever until she was rescued. She enjoys sleeping with her foster siblings & in bed with you. She can be found sitting with her foster siblings with the dogs & cats on the couch or bed. Amalia loves a good outfit & adores her toys now she knows what they are. Amalia is wonderful with her baths & grooms as she has learnt since we got her to have them. Amalia loves to eat & is a wonderful eater now & she is not shy about that. She eats a clean diet of, 70% raw proteins, fruits, vegetables a small of grains, along with different supplements & fats. She also loves collagen sticks & bully sticks. She is the nicest shi tzu angel her foster mum said they have ever fostered. In her current foster home she enjoys going into the backyard & sunning herself & running & playing with her dog friends. She does walk really well on a harness & leash & has been taught since she has been in her devoted foster home. We are looking for a crate free home for this little lady only. Amalia as you can imagine spent such a long time in a caged environment. Please do not say you won’t crate her & then go & crate her, that is unacceptable. We are also looking for a forever home for Amalia where someone is home during the day or she can go with her people wherever possibly she can go with them. Amalia is looking for a forever home who will cherish her & love her as she should be loved & be patient with her & never give up on her. Amalia loves her dog & cat friends so much & she enjoys being with them & has never met a dog she doesn’t like. She does not discriminate against breeds. We currently have her with other dogs in her loving foster home & she plays non stop with them so it’s mandatory for her to go to a forever home with another young dog or dogs in the home for her to thrive. Amalia needs a fully fenced backyard if it’s a freestanding house. Amalia is roughly now 8 lbs, & perhaps 1 year old & possibly a shi tzu but what she is mixed with we are not sure. She is female, we are getting her spayed now she is healthy. She got her shots in the shelter, including DHPP, rabies. But once these shots expire we will not redo them as we do not over vaccinate our beloved dogs & will only redo the rabies. Amalia has been around cats since being in the rescue in her loving foster home but it’s always up to the new family to be responsible with their animals together. We have not had her around children so we do not recommend children but it’s always up to the adopters to responsible with their children, cats & dogs. We were not there when Amalia was conceived so we do not know who her parents were & it’s always up to the new potential family to look at the pictures & decide what they think her breed is. As with all of our rescues & Amalia friends she will need work on potty training & training, so this should be something the new family would be willing to work on & commit to.
