Story
Meet Donny — a joyful Xolo with a big heart and even bigger personality. It’s hard to believe a smooth-coated Xoloitzcuintle—often compared to Dante from Coco—could end up on a shelter euthanasia list. But that’s exactly where Donny found himself. Donny arrived at the North Central Los Angeles Animal Shelter as an 8-month-old stray: underweight, with a swollen cheek, but full of life. Volunteers quickly fell for his playful spirit. Shelter notes described him as a dog who “loves running the entire length of the yard,” plays beautifully with all kinds of dogs, and happily rolls around getting chewed on by his buddies. Despite months in a loud, crowded shelter, Donny thrived. He joined playgroups, passed a professional behavioral assessment, and completed a youth training program where he learned basic manners and showed off his smarts at graduation. He aced off-site pack walks, calmly greeted the public at adoption events, and handled new dogs and busy environments with ease. But even the happiest dogs struggle with long shelter stays. Over time, kennel stress caught up with young Donny, and in December he was placed on the euthanasia list. Thankfully, love stepped in just in time. Thanks to Paws4Thought Rescue and devoted foster parents, Donny traded cold concrete for warm beds, Xolo friends, and even pig pals. Now he’s ready for his next chapter—a forever home where he can run, play, and then curl up for cuddles with his family. Donny is proof that incredible dogs sometimes just need someone to see them. He’s also a perfect gentleman when it counts. Donny rides calmly in the car, settles in easily, and does great meeting new people and dogs in busy environments. He’s friendly, polite, and eager to connect. Donny would thrive in an active home that can give him regular exercise, playtime, and positive outlets for his energy — and in return, you’ll get a loyal, sweet companion who’s just as happy to cuddle once the fun is done. ##2614010##

Hershey is a 10 year old, 18 lb male Chiweenie pulled from a high kill shelter at the last minute. Hershey is house trained, crate trained and would thrive in a calm household with a confident, strong leader, and would do best in a home with no children This low rider boy must have had a VERY rough past...He is now thriving with our trainer and learning how to be a happy "short legged", ball retriever and strong headed little senior guy!!Hershey loves to follow strong leadership and needs a pack leader owner that will keep on throwing the tennis ball and take him on daily long walks (his legs are shorts but function very well and as fast as possible!) We are looking to give Hershey the happy future he deserves...Hershey needs some time and space first to give you his trust... when you gain it, he is a very loyal companion.

How this pet arrived:Snicker was brought in by their previous owner on December 11, 2025. Why this pet is the one for you: Meet Snicker, the sweet treat with four paws and a wagging tail! This playful little guy is full of nutty energy, gooey charm, and just the right amount of mischief to keep life fun. Snicker tackles every day with curiosity and enthusiasm, always ready to see what delicious adventure comes next. His excitement is nonstop-from playful zoomies to silly puppy antics-until he finally "melts" into naptime, of course. With caramel-smooth cuddles, crunchy playfulness, and a heart packed with love, Snicker's favorite thing is sharing his sweetness with his family. One thing's for sure: life is better with a Snicker!
