Story
Sammy IS AVAILALBE (updated 04-18-2024).To meet any of our dogs you must first complete our online adoption application on our website. For more information and the adoption application for Sammy, please visit our website belowhttp://www.coastalgsr.org/dog_profile.php?ID=22667&name=SammySammy was found wandering alone, wearing a black harness attached to a white leash. People had previously seen him being walked by an elderly man near Del High Park, but no one could find that gentleman and Sammy was taken to the shelter. He was checked in, given an impound number of #A1818905, and sat there waiting for his family to find him. His time was running out, no one came for him, and the shelter had now given him a euthanasia date. We rescued Sammy and put up signs in the area in which he was found, hoping his owner would see them, but no one has responded.This super fluffy guy with the biscuit paws is thought to be around 4-5 years old and isnâ&#194&#128&#194&#153t a high maintenance diva. Heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s been through so much already and we would love to be able to let him adjust inside a wonderful foster (or adoptive) home. Right now, heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153d do best as the only dog.The minimum adoption donation for adults is $375 and the adoption donation for puppies is $500. This amount only partially covers the cost of veterinary care, boarding fees, and other miscellaneous expenses involved in the temporary care and adoption of our dogs and is tax deductible. The adoption donation provides that all dogs will be spayed or neutered, receive current vaccinations, and are microchipped. If not, arrangements will be made on an individual basis ( i.e., puppies who will need to be altered by 6 mos old). Special consideration may be given to those willing to adopt older dogs or dogs with physical problems.April 18, 2024, 6:07 am

Story
Jamie is a smart lady who enjoys learning new things. She's a little timid meeting new people, but gets comfortable soon - especially when treats are involved! Jamie's been working on her obedience skills while she waits for "the one." She yearns for an engaged and adventurous home where she can be spoiled as the only dog.

Story
I'm reaching out to find a new, loving home for my dog, Leo. He's an amazing dog with a super chill vibe. Most of the time, you'll find him lounging around the house, just enjoying the quiet life. But don't get me wrong, he's not lazy – just relaxed. Leo has been through some pretty cool training at the Long Beach animal shelter. There, he learned how to help calm other animals down. And he's smart too – he knows better than to get mixed up with the more aggressive types. Even though Leo's a bigger dog, he's really gentle and loves his walks and playtime. He's got this adorable way of asking to go outside when he needs to – either with a soft growl or by coming up to you directly. It's his way of communicating, and it works really well. Leo's just a fantastic dog, and he's got this calming presence and enjoys checking things out. He's not the kind of dog that's bouncing off the walls with energy. So, if that's what your looking for he's perfect. I

Story
Storm is a sweet girl, She is about 5 years old, weighs about 45lbs. Loves car rides and going on walks. She is mellow, enjoys cuddling by your side or just hanging out with you. She is crate trained snd sleeps all night in her crate. Does not dig, nor does she chew furniture. Does not react to cats or dogs on walks. She is well behaved and friendly with other dogs, even new dogs she has never met before, but can be possessive of her toys and food around dogs sometimes, for that reason it would be best she is only around dogs her size or by herself preferably. Unfortunately i have a 6lb chihuahua and they don’t get along but gets along with my other 9 month old husky.
