Story
Rondo is a such a sweet boy! He is a goof ball with a big heart. He walks well on a leash and loves to play in the yard. He’s a bit clumsy when trying to catch a ball, but is committed to working on that skill. He is a friendly, slightly shy boy who would love to get out of the crowded shelter. Rondo has participated in shelter playgroups and may enjoy a compatible canine friend in his new home.  Looking for a buddy for your dog?  Bring him/her to the shelter for a meet and greet and see if we`re a match!  Check out his playgroup video here:To meet me, visit the Bradshaw Animal Shelter Tuesday-Sunday, Noon - 5:00 pm, Wednesdays, Noon - 6:00 pm. All adoptions are on a first-come, first-served basis. To help expedite the meet and greet process, please make note of my Animal ID number, and those of other dogs you might be interested in meeting. Be sure to bring your ID with you, too.

Story
We have a transport where we will be personally driving our dogs home leaving on 12/13/25 to NorCal, OR, and WA. Surrounding states will be added to our route as needed ☺️ We would love to add Bailey to our trip for the right home! Some dogs enter your life with a burst of excitement, but Bailey enters like a calm sunrise — warm, steady, gentle, and full of quiet devotion. She is a beautifully mannered young Labradoodle with a soft hypoallergenic poodle coat, meaning no shedding and endless snuggles to enjoy. Born on October 1st, 2024, she is full grown at just under 43 lbs — a healthy, smaller-framed girl with the sweetest presence and a heart that simply wants a person to love again. Bailey came from a caring home, but life changed in ways she couldn’t understand. Her owners went through a divorce, and although both loved her, she became tied to a chapter that was closing. The wife didn’t want to take anything connected to the marriage with her — including Bailey. Her husband adored her, but his long work hours made it impossible to give her the consistent time, attention, and companionship she deserved. With a heavy heart, he reached out to us and asked if we could take her in and find the home he always hoped she would have. His love for her showed in every word, and we’ve carried that same care forward while she has been with us. From the first day, Bailey showed us exactly who she is: calm, gentle, affectionate, and deeply connected to people. She naturally gravitates toward her person and finds so much joy simply being by your side. She is wonderful with other dogs and cats — kind, respectful, and easygoing — but because she was the only dog in her previous home, learning to play with other animals is something she is slowly exploring. Her comfort has always been with humans, and that bond is where she truly shines. She can be cautious when meeting someone new, which is a classic poodle trait, but it isn’t fear — she just needs a moment to feel safe. Once she senses kindness, her heart opens beautifully. Bring a few treats, and she’ll warm up even faster, as she is very food motivated. She is not a barker, but she does communicate softly when she needs or wants something. Her nature is tender, quiet, and very sweet, and she carries herself in a way that makes you feel calm just by being near her. Bailey has wonderful home manners. She is crate trained and sleeps peacefully through the night, though she’d be just as happy with a cozy bed beside her person, as closeness is truly her happy place. She loves road trips and is always eager to hop into the car and go anywhere with us. She enjoys grooming appointments and absolutely soaks up the compliments — she knows she’s beautiful and appreciates every bit of attention. Her leash training has improved tremendously, and she walks with confidence and ease now. Bailey’s adoption fee is on our website at the bottom of her adoption listing at https://www.breadoflifek9refuge.org/post/bailey-1 It covers her spay, vaccines, microchip/registration, dental cleaning and polish, and her full exam with our vet. It also reflects the months of care, training, grooming, and love we’ve invested into preparing her for her forever family. Bailey is an extraordinary girl — soft-hearted, intuitive, loyal, and genuinely loving. Anyone would be blessed to share their life with her. If you are looking for a companion who will walk beside you, feel safe with you, and love you with her whole heart, Bailey may be the one whose story is meant to continue with yours.

Story
Meet Freddie our sweet one year old poodle mix. He weighs 15 pounds full grown. He is neutered, microchipped and up to date on all his vaccines. The vet sent him home with a clean bill of health and is now ready to find a home all his own. He is house trained and goes outside to do his business every couple hours when needed. Inside the home, he's pretty independent and keeps to himself unless you're calling him over for some love and attention. He's not the type to demand affection, but he absolutely soaks it up when it's offered. He is still getting the hang of walking on a leash and building confidence as his previous life as a breeder dog didn't include many outings, so everything is still a little unfamiliar to him but he's making steady progress. He enjoys spending quiet time out in the yard and will happily hang out on his own, especially if he's not quite ready to come inside. He's a bit of a hide and seek pro when he wants to be. Every day he gets a little braver, a little more curious, and a little more confident. He currently sleeps in his crate peacefully at night but I'm sure he would love his own bed next to yours if you prefer. He sleeps soundly through the night and settles in easily when you need to step out. What he needs now is someone with patients and a gentle heart, someone who understands that love and trust take time to grow. He'd thrive in a calm, nurturing home where he can continue building confidence at his own pace. His adoption fee is $1500 which covers all vet costs, care and training since the time he's been with us. Get in touch with us today and share details about yourself, the loving home you can provide, and your experience with the breed. Located in Hesperia CA. We offer transportation to you so long as it's covered by the adopter. We will be in contact with you shortly. Thank you!

Courtesy Post – Meet Sarge! Sarge is an adorable 10-month-old white/cream Goldendoodle looking for a new home due to housing challenges his family is facing.

Sarge is: Up to date on vaccinations Crate trained Friendly with kids and other dogs Allows people to take food and toys away from him Still learning about house training (potty training is currently unknown) Sarge behaves happily but shyly when meeting new people.

Story
Courtesy Post: Teddy Needs a Loving Home Meet Teddy, a cream-colored Goldendoodle looking for a loving, patient home. She has been with her current family for five years after being adopted from a relative. While she is a wonderful companion, her family feels she would do best in a home without children due to her sensitivity to certain triggers. About Teddy: Breed: Goldendoodle Age: 8 years old (Born November 2015) Gender: Female (spayed) Temperament: Affectionate, snuggly, and loving Potty Trained: Yes Training: Knows basic commands, crate trained, and follows household routines Activity Level: Enjoys playing fetch, going on walks, car rides, and being with her people Other Pets: Does well with dogs but does not actively engage in play. Has not lived with cats but may adjust to a calm cat Allergies: Requires daily medication and a chicken-free diet (currently on Purina Pro Plan Salmon & Rice) Separation Anxiety: Can become anxious when left alone but responds well to structure and treats Grooming: Needs Trazodone for vet visits and grooming due to anxiety Ideal Home for Teddy: Teddy would thrive in a calm, adult-only home where she can be a loyal companion. She needs an owner who understands her boundaries and is willing to work with her on her specific triggers. She loves to be close to her people, preferably cuddled up on the couch. Challenges & Considerations: While Teddy is loving and affectionate, she has shown reactivity in specific situations: Resource Guarding: If someone tries to take a non-toy object from her mouth, she may nip. This is managed by trading the item for a treat and using commands like 'sit' and 'drop it.' Handling Sensitivities: Teddy does not like her feet or mouth being touched. She also does not tolerate being force-fed pills and must take medication in food or treats. Reactivity to Pain: If accidentally injured (e.g., foot stepped on), she may react by nipping. She has bitten in these situations before, but the bites were not severe (puncture wounds but no stitches needed). Strong Reactions to Anger: Teddy does not respond well to forceful handling or raised voices. She needs an owner who uses calm and firm leadership. While Teddy has been friendly with children, her family believes she would do best in a home without kids to avoid any accidental triggers. If you are interested in giving Teddy a loving home, please contact Leanne Wydick at (530) 220-5325 or leanneloof@gmail.com. Please share to help Teddy find the right home! All animals are up-to-date on vaccinations (including rabies if over 4 months old), microchipped, and spayed or neutered. All dogs have been been vaccinated with DHPP and Bordatella (kennel cough) and heartworm tested negative (if over 6 months).    All cats have been vaccinated with FVRCP and current on flea control.

Story
Jackson is a total sweetheart who loves any affection he can get, but also does quite well in a home that's laid back as well. He loves to cuddle, and loves kids. He's been quieter than most dogs I've been around, and tends to be submissive around other animals. Definitely more of a lover than a fighter. He's a happy, healthy boy, with many years ahead of him. I've had him since he was 8 weeks old, and having to rehome him to protect his best interests is one of the hardest things I've ever had to do. It's not done lightly. Jackson is a treasure, and anyone stepping forward will have a truly excellent companion to enrich their life.

Story
Introducing Scarlett aka Honey Bee, our charming little girl, an 8-pounder who was previously used for breeding purposes before becoming part of our family. It is clear that she was kept outdoors, resulting in a lack of confidence. Scarlett has undergone surgical removal of bladder stones, which were Struvites primarily caused by untreated bacterial infections and insufficient access to clean water. Having endured significant challenges at just 2 years old, this miniature poodle has made considerable strides. Scarlett is a finicky eater, necessitating a combination of wet food and CD prescription food. Her care will require regular grooming and a fenced yard. Scarlett interacts favorably with other dogs. Location: Georgetown, CA.

Story
Pending adoption We have a transport where we will be personally driving our dogs home leaving on either 11/14/25 or 12/13/25 to NorCal, OR, and WA. Surrounding states will be added to our route as needed ☺️ We would love to add Henry to our trip for the right home! Henry is pure sunshine wrapped in soft curls and joy. At just a year old, this handsome Maltipoo (a Maltese and Poodle mix) weighs right around 11 pounds, perfectly full grown and in wonderful health. He’s that ideal balance of playful energy and gentle companionship — always eager to chase a toy or wag his tail for attention, but just as content curling up beside you for a quiet evening at home. From the moment he arrived, Henry brought an easy warmth to our home. His tail rarely stops wagging, and his entire body wiggles with excitement when he knows someone is about to pet him. He’s friendly with every person he meets, absolutely adores other dogs, and even gets along beautifully with cats. He’s one of those special dogs who seems to have been born knowing how to love everyone — soft, kind-hearted, and full of light. Henry came to us from a young woman who adored him but was moving from her aunt’s home to her college campus, where pets weren’t allowed. She made the incredibly selfless decision to ask us to take him in so that his next chapter would be full of the stability, care, and affection he’s always known. From day one, he’s carried that same happy, trusting spirit forward — adjusting easily, finding joy in every small thing, and proving to be an absolute dream to care for. He’s wonderfully mannered, crate trained, and fully house trained. If he needs to go out while in his crate, he’ll give a few little barks to let you know — not because he’s noisy, but because he communicates clearly and politely. Otherwise, he’s not a barker at all; he’s calm, observant, and happiest when he’s near his people. He loves car rides (he hops in ready for adventure), and he’s excellent at the groomers, standing proud like the little gentleman he is. Here, Henry has blossomed under structure, consistency, and care. He’s been introduced to basic obedience, daily leash walks, and confidence-building exercises that have made him even more well-rounded. He loves to learn and responds quickly to positive reinforcement — especially when treats are involved. (He did want us to mention that his new family should definitely have a “Henry Treat Shelf.” 😂) He’s a dog that shines in every setting — joyful, intelligent, affectionate, and endlessly loving. He’s the kind who will greet you with a wagging tail every morning and make you laugh with his silly antics every night. He’s steady, balanced, and full of heart, and he’s ready to find that forever person who will love him just as deeply as he loves in return. Adoption Fee is on our website at the bottom of his adoption listing at https://www.breadoflifek9refuge.org/post/henry-1 Henry’s adoption fee covers his neuter, core vaccines, microchip and lifetime registration, and a dental cleaning and polish (his teeth were in excellent health). It also includes his veterinary exam, which confirmed he’s in wonderful condition overall. As with all of our dogs, this adoption fee also reflects the months of care, training, and professional grooming Henry has received during his time with us — all of the love, consistency, and hands-on attention that helped him grow into the amazing, confident companion he is today. Henry’s heart is open, his tail is wagging, and his forever story is waiting to begin. 💛
