Meet Niko, the sweetest little guy with a big heart! Niko is a friendly, happy pup who loves being around people and settles quickly into new routines.

Story
Meet Moose! Don’t let the name fool you—Moose may sound like a lumbering forest beast, but this 6-month-old Terrier mix is more “pint-sized goofball” than “antlered giant.” At five months old, Moose has already mastered the art of being ridiculously cute and delightfully dramatic. He’s a big dog trapped in a small dog body (we think he might be in denial). He struts on walks like he owns the neighborhood and thinks every squeaky toy is an arch-nemesis that must be conquered immediately. He’s almost fully potty trained and a master of both the doggie door and puppy pad, depending on the situation—or his mood. He lives with kids and doggy foster sisters and gets along great with both—always down for a game of chase, a cuddle pile, or a group treat break. And speaking of treats, this little dude will do just about anything for a snack (we suspect he may be part raccoon). If you’re looking for a puppy with personality, sass, and a heart the size of Texas—even if he’s the size of a loaf of bread—Moose might just be your new best friend. Adopt Moose and prepare to have your squeaky toys permanently under siege. If you are interested in adopting, please visit the I.C.A.R.E. Dog Rescue website and complete an adoption application: www.icaredogrescue.org/ready-to-adopt Adoption fee includes: spay/neuter • shots up to date • micro-chip • fecal and vet check Breeds and age are not guaranteed.

Story
&#226&#156&#168 Meet Zsa Zsa &#226&#156&#168   Can you believe this little cutie was once on the shelter red list in the desert region? Thankfully, we couldn’t leave her behind—so now she’s safe, loved, and ready for her forever family!   Zsa Zsa is a tiny bundle of sweetness, weighing under 8 lbs and just a little over a year old. She’s playful, cuddly, and her big, soulful eyes will melt your heart. She loves to snuggle and has settled in beautifully with dogs of all sizes and ages.   Zsa Zsa does have a birth defect called ectopic ureter. She has already had surgery with limited success, which means she may always have a little leakage. She is house trained and may just need to wear a cute little pantie from time to time—something she takes in stride. Because of this, she is considered a special-needs adoption, but she doesn’t let it slow her down one bit. She’s still happy, bouncy, and full of love to give!   Zsa Zsa is spayed, microchipped, and fully vaccinated.   Available in Southern California, especially South Orange County To apply: http://greendogfoundation.com/application-for-adoption/ For more info: 949-842-2517   Adoption Donation   Under 1 year: $600 Over 1 year: $500 (includes all vaccinations, full vetting, deworming, flea/tick treatment, microchip, and spay/neuter)     Zsa Zsa is a true little gem who’s overcome so much—now she just needs her perfect match. Could that be you?     For more info: 949-842-2517October 7, 2025, 4:38 pm

Story
Three year old, 11 lb, Lhasa Apso/Shih Tzu mix Pauly entered the county shelter as a stray. He was very reactive at the shelter, but calmed once he came into our care. While he likes people, Pauly can be shy/protective with new people, and doesn't like some men. He also doesn't like confinement. Pauly prefers to be with other dogs, especially small ones. He likes to play with soft toys. Pauly would be happiest with another dog in the home. He likes to deal with one person at a time, and is not appropriate for a home with children or people who are not experienced in handling dogs who may get moody. Apply to meet him at adoptocpets.org/adopt
