Click Here to Sponsor Me!  Adoption APPLICATION: Muttsinneed.org/adoption-application   ** Application must be completed prior to a meet & greet.                                   Our Adoption Process:Muttsinneed.org/adoption-process  Meet Handsome! He’s a purebred Schnauzer with a gentle spirit who starts off a bit timid and shy. Handsome is about 3 years old and came to us from a former breeder who sadly lost her home. He arrived in heartbreaking condition — severely matted fur, overgrown nails, and completely shut down — so we can only imagine the environment he came from. Despite his rough start, Handsome has the sweetest soul. He adores other dogs and truly blossoms when he’s around them, so his ideal home will have a confident canine buddy to help him continue building trust. He’s still learning the basics like leash walking and potty training, but he’s making steady progress. Handsome is ready for a home that will be patient, loving, and committed to helping him continue to come out of his shell.

Radar is approx 3 years old and around 25lbs. He was given up by his previous owner, who used him for breeding, and eventually lost her home. He came to us severely matted and shut down in demeanor. He doesn't know how to walk on a leash and is learning to use a doggie door so you can only imagine how his 'breeder' treated him and the other dogs he came in with. Radar is so sweet and within a day, eventually warmed up within his foster home to his humans.  We would love for Radar to go into a home with another friendly dog, to help continue to bring him out of his shell.  To meet me submit an application at- https://www.muttsinneed.org/adoption-application.htmlOctober 31, 2025, 3:17 pm

Story
Meet Santos! He is a 3 year old schnauzer/husky mix. He is a sweet, goofy boy who loves being with his human. Santos enjoys playing outside and like to play fetch; although he is still learning to give up the ball after retrieving it. He knows his sit command and is very treat motivated, but he still needs some training. Santos is about 50 pounds and does not realize his size and sometimes jumps on you or can be mouthy. He does however, respond well to correction, but needs someone who can use patience and positive reinforcement to give him guidance and boundaries he needs. He is a smart boy with lots of potential. Santos gets along with other dogs that are more on the submissive side and are smaller than him and he is totally fine with cats. He needs a more experienced dog owner that will give him the boundaries and rules he needs. He will also do best in an adult only home. Santos is full grown at 50 pounds.Our adoptions are restricted to residents within 30 miles of the South Bay area of Los Angeles. We do not ship animals or do long distance adoptions. See our adoption policies for more details on our adoption process. If you are interested in adopting one of our available pups, please complete an adoption application.

Story
Leo is the sweetest puppy! He is eight months old and is potty trained, but is still learning to not nip/jump up. He is very treat-oriented and intelligent and pretty easy to train. He loves to run and I normally take him out on a medium walk twice a day and most of the rest of the day he just lies around and chills. He gets puppy zoomies usually for 30 minutes in the evening but less so if he has gone on a run or hike. Note: While he is good with kids and other dogs once he's comfortable with them, he IS reactive so that's why I marked "no" on the key facts section. He loves playing with other dogs but he has been known to bark/show aggression towards dogs and people. For this reason a more experienced adopter would be better. I don't think having another dog is a dealbreaker but they'll just need to warm up to each other. He has all his shots and is neutered. Let me know if you would like to come meet him or even watch him for a week or so for a trial run!
