Story
Simba has spent too long waiting for his forever family. 💔 This strong and spirited Akita-Husky mix is full of energy, loves his toys, and is happiest on long walks or playing with his human. He’s sweet, loyal, and ready for the right home. If you’re looking for a dog with personality and heart, Simba is waiting to meet you! 🐕 Adopt Simba: https://form.jotform.com/221926016430144 Full profile: Simba is a 6-8-year-old Akita-Husky mix with the personality of an Akita and the heart of a lion. He’s playful, sweet, and full of energy but needs a confident and strong adopter who understands his needs. 💪 Strength & Training: Simba is powerful and can pull when excited, so he needs someone physically capable of managing his strength. He’s learning commands like sit, down, paw, and “potty” and thrives with structure. A harness might help with his pulling. 🐾 Energy & Personality: Simba is not always a couch potato! He loves long walks (2+ miles is no problem), playing with his toys, and getting plenty of attention. He’s affectionate and cuddly but always ready for adventure. 🏡 Home Needs: Simba would do best in a home without small children due to his strength and energy. He’s good with other dogs, especially more timid ones, but does best with boundaries around toys and space. He’s also quite the counter-surfer, so keeping things out of reach is key! 🐕 Health: Simba has a thyroid condition that is managed with treatment, giving him renewed energy and playfulness. Simba has had a lot of love and care from his foster, but he’s ready to find his forever home. If you’re looking for a strong, loyal, and playful companion, Simba could be your perfect match. 💙 Ready to meet Simba? Apply to adopt him and give this big-hearted boy the home he deserves. 📌 Share to help Simba find his forever home Currently being cared in Southern California, but can be transported up to northern states, such as Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, and anywhere within the US continental, if a great suitable family is willing to adopt him.

Story
Meet Rosie-Roo, a gentle noodle of a puppy who is only getting more confident by the day. Once she feels safe, her shell melts away to reveal a playful, curious, and deeply affectionate girl. She loves wrestling with her foster sibling and has plenty of energy for fun, turning into an absolute goofball with a heart of gold.  While she’s a social butterfly, she also takes her downtime just as seriously. She is a "professional snuggler" who loves nothing more than curling up on the couch with people she trusts after a long day. She is a joy to have around the house because she is so eager to please. A total foodie, she will do just about anything for treats, making her a star student for your future training. She’s getting very good at potty training and almost all the way there, including sleeping through the night. With a pocket full of treats and cuddles to share, you’ll have a loyal, confident and fun-loving companion for life.   ##2634975##

Story
Meet Pour Over, a smart and independent dog with a goofy streak that lights up the shelter. While she loves her independence, she`s also quite clever. Pour Over prefers a calm environment and would thrive in a home where any children present are 10+ due to her sensitivities with body handling. Pour Over also prefers to be the center of attention, and would do best in a home with no other dogs. At the shelter, volunteers and staff alike love spending time with this mellow girl. Our Volunteers have called her `super sweet` and `easy going!` They`ve also pointed out that she knows how to sit and shake! Adopting Pour Over means bringing home a loyal and intelligent companion who will keep you entertained and engaged. She`s ready to pour her heart into a loving forever home.What I Need In a Home:* Kids 10+ required* No other dogs

Pooka is a lover- loves to play, loves to eat, loves to watch, loves to learn, loves to snuggle, the list goes on. He is potty trained with a dog door and is learning basic commands. He would do great with kids and another doggy friend for sure!  He’s very patient for a puppy but won’t hesitate to play those beautiful husky vocal cords when he’s done waiting!  ##2630617##
