Story
MEET PEACHES! She is as sweet as her name. Peaches was rescued from a local shelter euthanasia list. She has medium to low energy. Peaches is dog selective and would do best with older kids and no cats or small dogs. She would be OK being the only animal in the home. Peaches is very sweet and loves to get pets and cuddle with you. Don’t let her big size fool you as she is an absolute love bug. Peaches is potty trained and crate trained. She is five years old and very easy to manage as long as she gets enough attention and some activity, but she doesn’t need much. Short walks will be fine for her because she gets tired pretty easily. She is strong because of her size. Peaches is about 85 pounds of pure love. She would do best as an inside dog, since she does have allergies being in the sun. She would be OK in a home or apartment/condo as long as she has outside space to access, but she should not be kept outdoors. Please let us know if you can foster her long-term for this rescue who is in desperate need of help. Fostering for a rescue still helps save lives because it allows the rescue to take in more dogs from the shelter. Her Rescue will cover basic needs, including food and medical expenses as well as supplies. If you are interested in fostering or adopting Peaches, please contact us.

Story
Astro will match your energy. He likes to run around and play and also likes to take a good old fashioned nap in the sun. I've socialized Astro since he was a puppy. He regularly goes to the dog park. True to his breed he is defensive around his owner, but he is also playful once he feels comfortable around the other dogs. At the dog park, if he observes other dogs getting into arguments, then he will jump in and break them up. He is a very curious dog. He wants to be in the center of what is happening and sees the world through his nose. He is content to just sit at your feet while you work and be with you. Astro is both crate and house trained. On cold days he will let us know he needs to go. On warm days we tend to leave the door open a little and he lets Astro knows how to sit, stay, lay down. After his daily walk he knows to sit before we will take off his harness. He also knows how to fetch. We engaged with a professional trainer to help us get him settled.

We got Astro when he was a roly poly little puppy. He has grown much larger and is very handsome. He is a very good dog. He loves to go on walks, play fetch and just chill. He is crate trained and goes in at night and when we are not home without issue. He is about 9 months old. We would love to find him a good home.

Story
Toby (formerly Georgie at Downey Shelter in Los Angeles County) is such a giant lapdog! He loves to be held, is definitely a tennis ball kind of dog, and is very playful. Toby prefers the company of other polite dogs and doesn't love when overly exuberant dogs crowd him too much. But he is very tolerant and has excellent doggy manners. Toby is house trained, crate trained, does well in the car, and is so so sweet. Toby is the spitting image of Chance from Homeward Bound and not far off from Petey in The Little Rascals. He's a big love bug who just can't wait to find his forever family. Is that yours?

Story
Lucy was being fostered at a home with over 15 dogs , her being the only young female was set as a target and most dogs would attack her .As soon as she was spotted in such a sad household she was rescued for her to not be in a male dominant household . She was brought home and cared for , shes a sweet girl loves hugs and kisses , can never get tired of playing ball . She is just getting use to not being scared of some items which has made us think she was abused in the past as she is scared of brooms so if you pick up a broom will hide from you . Lucy is such a ray a sun , my family and I are so sad that we have to let her go .

Story
*This is a courtesy listing.* Meet Titus! 11-year-old Titus needs a loving new home for his golden years. His family of 8 years loves him dearly, but their landlord is making changes to their lease agreement and no longer allowing pets. They describe Titus as a happy, gentle dog. He is very loving towards people, including children. He loves attention and being petted. Titus also loves being outdoors and often sits outside on their apartment balcony. He enjoys going for walks and would love having a yard! As much as Titus loves people, he does not do well with other animals and needs to be the only pet in the home. Titus is in good health, but as with most senior dogs, he needs to go potty more frequently than when he was younger. He is currently on a schedule of going out every 6-8 hours. If his family is not home, Titus will use potty pads. If you are looking for a big hunk of love, please consider adopting Titus! To learn more about him, contact Valerie at vortiz66@gmail.com *Frosted Faces Foundation has not assessed this dog medically or behaviorally.*

*This is a courtesy listing.* Meet Bubu! 9-year-old Bubu needs a loving new home for her golden years. Unfortunately, her current guardian is unable to continue taking care of her due to his work schedule. Bubu is very sweet, loving, and gentle towards all people, including young children. She is also good with cats and other dogs! Bubu currently eats kibble and loves mealtime, but she doesn't exhibit any food aggression. Like many seniors, Bubu has arthritis. She takes medication (Carprofen) for comfort and still enjoys going short walks. Bubu also gets eye drops daily, but she is such a good girl, it's easy to give them to her. If you are a bulldog lover, or just looking for a loving, gentle, and well-behaved companion, please consider adopting Bubu! To learn more, contact Thomas at 858-436-5821 or Ts3772034@gmail.com. *Frosted Faces Foundation has not assessed this dog medically or behaviorally.*
