Meet Lana! 🐾❤️* This gorgeous 10-year-old girl is a youthful spirit with a heart of gold! Despite her age, Lana's in excellent health and loves to play, run, and shower her humans with sloppy kisses. She's always up for a game of chase. Lana gets along with most dogs and is specially loving with puppies under a year old. She can get triggered by certain dogs, so a patient and experienced owner is a must. She's not super familiar with kiddos, but has been okay with respectful children - lots of adult supervision recommended. The ideal home for Lana is one with space to run, play, and explore! She thrives on strong leadership, structure, and lots of love. If you're up for the adventure, contact us to learn more about this sweet girl and schedule a meet-and-greet!

Story
Hank has a heart as big as his snuggles. He absolutely loves being around people and thrives on companionship — whether that’s hanging out on the couch, following you from room to room, or curling up close at bedtime. His favorite place to be? Right next to his humans. He gets along wonderfully with other dogs and is cat-friendly too, making him a great addition to a multi-pet home.  He’s learning that his crate is a safe space but also does well when left alone and hasn’t shown any destructive behavior -  he just patiently waits for his people to come back. More than anything, he’s dreaming of a forever family to love him and let him snuggle up with them every night. If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate companion who will happily be your shadow and best friend, this sweet boy might be your perfect match.  ##2657026##

Story
Meet Penny, a 6-year-old Basenji mix with a heart full of love and a spirited personality. Originally from Mexico, Penny made her way to California in December 2020 and was quickly adopted. However, she was returned when her previous family found out they were expecting a baby, and Penny wasn’t comfortable around the little one. Penny is a sweet and loving dog who thrives in the right environment. She’s fully house trained, never has accidents inside, and is a joy to have around. Penny enjoys long walks and playing with her toys, but she also loves relaxing and taking naps next to her favorite people. While Penny is not good with other dogs, cats, or kids, she is an ideal companion in a home where she can be the sole focus of attention. She’s working on her reactivity to other dogs on walks, so a patient family willing to help her through her anxiety would be the perfect fit. If you’re looking for a loyal and affectionate dog who will shower you with love and appreciate a calm, dog-free home, Penny is ready to become a cherished member of your family.

Story
Benny #A2053284 (HW NEG)  1/13/26 | Stray | Akita Mix | Neutered Male | 1Y | 48 lbs | HW NEG Temp test - https://youtube.com/shorts/v7KQCMyQC4c  Temp test continue - https://youtube.com/shorts/ZzONhy7dmdg    : Benny boy! Benny could probably run a mile with you or play all day with a dog, he’s all go no breaks  me and Benny were at one point wrestling on the grass while citizens came and it looked so playful and cute but really I was just trying to get his leash untangle hehe Benny isn’t much of a treat guy, he wants attention and play! He wants nothing but action, he didn’t pull to hard but when he did it was because he wanted to play with a dog or get something. This guy wouldn’t be able to use any of his brain cells, he’s not so attentive with you either. If adhd was in a dog, Benny would be one of the examples. This guy would be fun if the right person comes, he can easily be a “too much for me” kind of return. Very close energy to Jack, the husky you guys just pulled a couple of days ago! Intake per postal worker there is two large dogs in the area not allowing him to deliver the mail one dog is a light brown and white the other is dark brown   : 1/19/26 – Benny greeted me this morning with a loose body, high curled tail, and a softly closed mouth. He walked gently on a loose leash and accepted treats when offered. 1/21/26 – Benny will stand at the front of the kennel, presenting a neutral body posture, lip licking, and a C-shaped tail. Quiet throughout the day. 1/23/26 – Wiggly body, tappy toes, and licking snout. Walked with tight leash ahead of me out to runs, stopping frequently to mark spots. Did have to pull him away at one point as he tried to stop and pee on an ant pile. Wiggly and playful, bowing at other dogs once he saw them in the runs. 1/25/26 – Mr. Benny when I walked up to his kennel had a wiggly body, happy tail, ears to leash. Walked out with tight leash ahead of me outside, did have to pull him back when he tried to go towards another dog to try to play. 1/28/26 – Benny greeted me with a wiggly body and soft open mouth. Walking Benny he will semi-pull on the leash and will start jumping on me. I will turn my back on him and continue to walk. I tried to redirect Benny with treats but he ignored them. But in the kennel, Benny is very quiet and lays on his kuranda bed. 1/29/26 – Benny greets at the front of the kennel, presenting a loose body, a high C-shaped tail, and lip-licking. He becomes excited when walking and tends to semi-pull on the leash. He follows a trail of treats while walking. 1/30/26 – Dog greeted me with wiggly body and open mouth smile. When I opened his kennel he immediately walked into my leash, he was very wiggly and excited to go outside. He walked on a semi-tight leash. I placed him in runs and he immediately started to offer play bows to his neighbors. He ran back and forward, had zoomies. When retrieving him, I called him over and he immediately came running towards me and offering play bows. Walked loosely back to kennel. 1/31/26 – Benny was quiet and relaxed in kennel during morning feeding and cleaning. Greeted me by his kennel door with a relaxed body, low slow wagging tail and soft open mouth with loose tongue. Walked on a loose leash heading in and out of north building. While in his outdoor kennel he began to play bow with his neighbor and was running up and down, walked back inside on a loose leash and entered kennel with no issues. 2/1/26 – Benny presented a relaxed body with soft swaying tail. Benny walks well on a loose leash but will start to jump on me. While walking Benny, he started to shake his head and got out of his leash and started running away from me. But Benny had run right into the dog run to potty and I closed the gate.
