Story
Meet Cashew, a sweet 2-year-old Akita mix who is now available for adoption at the Newport Beach Animal Shelter.Cashew recently has a rare condition called masticatory muscle myositis, which affects her jaw muscles. She can eat and drink comfortably, but has some difficulty picking up toys.Cashew knows how to sit and lay down, and she gets bursts of playful energy from time to time. She would benefit from continued training to help her build confidence and skills. We are still learning how she feels about other dogs.If you think Cashew might be the right match for your home, we invite you to come meet her.

Story
Meet Kiera, a 2-year-old Husky mix with the calmest, most gentle soul. She might just be the best-behaved Husky you’ll ever meet! Kiera walks beautifully on leash, never makes a peep, and is completely nonchalant when passing other dogs. She already knows “sit” and recently met a 6-month-old male Shepherd/Husky puppy—she handled it with grace and ease.Kiera’s story began when she was abandoned at a mechanic’s lot, but thanks to the kindness of the workers there, she blossomed into the sweet, social girl she is today. After raising a couple of litters, it’s finally her turn to be the one cherished and cared for.Kiera is now ready for her next chapter and is looking for a foster—or even better, a forever home where she can shine as the loving companion she was always meant to be.September 28, 2025, 4:56 pm
