Story
Meet Woody   Woody is a survivor with the sweetest soul. He was rescued just in time from the euthanasia list at Hesperia Shelter after being confiscated from a drug house. Despite what he’s been through, this boy’s heart is still wide open—he just needs a little patience to feel safe.   Woody is learning to trust again. Sudden movements like a raised hand or broom can still scare him, and he’ll run to his crate for comfort—but every day he grows braver and more confident. And once he trusts you… he melts. He gives the best hugs and leans in for love like he’s been waiting his whole life for it.   ✨ 16 months old ✨ ~50 pounds ✨ Crate trained & house trained ✨ Fully vetted ✨ Great with dogs of all sizes   Woody would thrive in a calm, loving home with someone who understands that healing takes time—but the reward is a deeply loyal, incredibly affectionate companion.   He’s not broken… he’s just waiting for his person. For more information on Woody contact 949-456-7032 Or greendogfoundation@gmail.com To apply for adoption: https://greendogfoundation.org/application-for-adoption/      June 5, 2026, 12:08 am

PLEASE COMPLETE OUR ADOPTION APPLICATION AT WWW.LOVEBUGSRESCUE.ORG IF YOU'D LIKE TO BE CONSIDERED FOR ADOPTION: Meet our “The Pit” Litter! These adorable puppies are named after characters from the hit medical drama The Pit and will be turning 8 weeks old on June 18, 2026, when they will be ready to head off to their forever homes. Their mama, Dana, is a petite 38 lb Pit Bull mix with an absolutely wonderful temperament. She is sweet, friendly, affectionate, and has been an exceptional mother to her pups. Her loving personality shines through in this happy, playful litter. Robby, Whitaker, Langdon, Emma, McKay, Mel, and Santos are a fun-loving bunch with adorable markings and a beautiful variety of coat colors. They spend their days wrestling, exploring, chasing toys, and piling up together for naps. Each puppy is developing their own unique personality, but all share the same affectionate, social nature that makes them such a joy to be around. These puppies are expected to mature into the medium-size range when fully grown. They would thrive with families committed to providing training, socialization, exercise, and lots of love as they grow into well-rounded adult dogs. If you’re looking for a loyal companion with a playful spirit and a heart full of love, one of these precious pups may be the perfect match for your family!
